That's why these wobblers shouldn't be in the top league 😁

Isn't Dave Watters from Sheffield? 🤔

All of the Lions waiting on track after the parade to do a practice start... except for Drew Kemp

I don't know but they're keen as mustard 😁

Not great that they previously promoted the 2023 & 2024 SGP's at Cardiff, 2023 being the near disaster that they unbelievably won FIM Speedway Local Organiser of the Year prize for. As far as I could tell it received pretty much zero promotion. Hopefully they'll be more invested now they're running the whole shooting match, at least they're starting from a pretty low base after the WBD years, so the only way should be up... let's see what the future brings.

Sounds like WBD have quit to spend more time with their drone 😁

... and Ashton Boughen

And at least one that doesn't exist anymore... https://www.mayfield-ms.com/clients

Good effort from the Bears, managed to stone wall the Pirates most of the way. Poole are well capable of visiting Redcar and winning though... game on!

Redcar reserves have owned their counterparts tonight!

I think it was a while back

Thomson touched the tapes with his peak

Starke was going down before Morris straightened

I don't think King was too happy with Rowe there

Attaboy!

Does this mean Nick Morris will be unavailable? 🚬

Probably depreciated to be worth less than dust now though... depending on how much they paid for them of course 💰

Tyres and obsolete GTR engines?

Don't ask them to do that with SGP4 though!!

Kurtz qualified but I take your point about new blood. Bewley & Holder came in with the exclusion of the Russians and this year Lebedevs looks to have also stepped up a notch or two

Will 'Arry be there tonight?

They're all cool with it... go figure 🤷‍♂️

Terry Russell?

SPEEDWAY FUTURES LINK WITH HARRY Monday, September 15, 2025 PREMIERSHIP CEO Phil Morris says the appointment of legendary football manager Harry Redknapp to the Speedway Futures Management team marks a major step forward in efforts to raise the sport’s commercial and media profile. Redknapp, 78, enjoyed a stellar career as player and manager, making over 100 appearances for both West Ham and Bournemouth. He then had extensive spells in charge of both clubs before going on to great success as manager at Portsmouth and Tottenham. Away from the game, Redknapp’s public popularity was confirmed when he won the 2018 series of ITV reality show ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ Speedway Futures Ltd was set up in 2024 and became the commercial and media rights holders of British Speedway, with the specific objective of attracting long term commercial investment to develop the sport in the UK. Morris said: “There’s been extensive work over the last year or so, firstly in terms of bringing together a team of people with experienced commercial backgrounds, and expertise in media, which can help us develop the sport. “Obviously the aim is to bring additional investment into British Speedway, and we have been talking to major multinational sports investment groups about potential future involvement in speedway in the UK. “Speedway Futures are the new media and commercial rights holders for British Speedway, and we do have various potential deals in discussion which we believe can make a real difference to the sport “As far as Harry is concerned, it’s marvellous news, and it comes from a direct connection with a member of the Speedway Futures team who approached him about getting involved. “He will be joining the Speedway Futures Management team, which is great news. He will be focussing on leveraging his commercial and media contacts for the benefit of British Speedway and also actively raising the sport’s profile through all his connections. “He has over 1.4 million followers on social media, and that automatically creates a new audience and gives us the opportunity to reach out to groups who we wouldn’t otherwise be able to target. “To bring in someone with such a general reach and appeal as Harry can only help us to increase overall interest and hopefully bring in significant investment.”
