Birmingham are doing what Birmingham do 🤷‍♂️

... or a more reliable engine 😁

Were the 2 Musie's related? The young one seemed very happy when he beat the old one.

Compare that to the division 2 crowds of both meetings this afternoon... and what top league crowds in this country would give for any of those numbers seen out in Poland watching live Speedway today!

I hate to interrupt the Poole love/hate fest... but a shout out to young Joe Thompson with 14(+1) big points and a match winning 2nd place in heat 15 👏

They've got that new stage thingy on the centre green at the GP's

Only those with a sense of humour... you can move along 👉

I honestly didn't think anybody would be stupid enough to think it wasn't a joke... obviously I was wrong!

That's the spirit! And nobody did ask you.

I've removed it, it was just a joke, probably poorly judged 👍🏻

Reading the words "Track Waterlogged" did seem a bit fishy, especially after around 3 weeks in Leicester without any appreciable rain... but it did rain again at 19:30 so probably the right call in the end

For Virgin Media customers that should read "If"

I know... can you imagine a club doing such a thing! 🤔

Unfortunately tonight's return is off already! I wonder who made that call.

Like at the SoN last year you mean? 🤔

Wait... what? My Polish ain't great but surely they can't leave it like this 🤔

Great! A super heat!

How soon the saviour of King's Lynn is forgotten, the sun shone out of his backside last season and now he doesn't even get a mention... Woj

WTF is going on at Poznan with the starting gate? Their Filip Morriski doesn't look too impressed, it's like watching something from Scunthorpe!

What are the Polish TV channels these are on? Thanks

And what better track than Leicester... that sorts the men out from the throttle jockey boys 😁

Didn't think so 🤔

Erm... his dad bought the club. And why do foreign riders come over to ride in the UK? It's not to pin the throttle around the NSS, it's certainly not for the money, it's to ride the Ippo's, Birmingham's, King's Lynn's, Leicester's etc. To make them better technical riders.

You may call it negativity, I call it realism. Who owns the land? You can't just go around opening Speedway tracks on other people's land without their say so. The Local Plan is just being ignored at Peterborough, it clearly states a new facility should be provided if the existing one is demolished, there is no sign of this happening. The Local Plan is only a guide and doesn't seem that it is legally enforceable. At Brandon, nothing has changed.

Now I don't want to be a negative Nancy and nothing would please me more than the return of Speedway to Brandon but unless the campaign are privy to some information that's not being released I'm not quite sure what this latest outburst of unbridled optimism is all about? If they're pinning their hopes on the addition of that paragraph in the Local Plan then I wouldn't get too excited about it as the shenanigans at Peterborough prove that the Local Plan isn't worth the paper it's written on! As somebody else has commented unless there's a compulsory purchase order made on the stadium BE still hold all the cards as they can just sit on their plans (whatever they are) and wait for the council to change at some point in the future. I'm not sure we're any further on than we were this time last year, correct me if I'm wrong. Still... get your emails in folks it certainly can't hurt.
