Not our fault your riders are such homers

Heat 9 was pretty hare-em scare-em stuff... yikes!

You can take dirt off though

That's why you need rules and not just make inconsistent decisions on a case by case basis

NSS getting on for 10 years old now... they should have sussed track prep by now

Only because the meeting was held up for him... why not wait for Tungate/Doyle... stupid I know, but rules must be consistent

The NSS is getting on for 10 years old... you'd think that they'd be able to prepare a track that wasn't so grippy in damp conditions by now When it's good it's the best, when it's bad it's quite processional

What about when Bomber didn't make it in time for "start time" at Glasgow the other week? Due to being stuck in traffic?

If Schlein's voice gets any higher it's going to shatter my TV!

Emil burnt his on an exhaust a few weeks ago and are allegedly at the tailors for repair. JJ, not so sure.

The thing is we live in an information media age, it's the easiest thing in the world to put out a statement explaining the circumstances and then there is no speculation (Unless it's Buster at King's Lynn that is )

Almost as ludicrous as penalising a team for 1 night because a rider has not passed a drugs test

The trouble is in this new era of transparency we have no idea what went on with Tungate, the SCB don't seem answerable to the media, public or fans

Hasn't there been a similar case recently with a Scottish football team?

Defo

and?

No, but equally calling meetings off when there is nothing wrong with the weather can also cause damage in a way that isn't immediately obvious i.e. when punters are making their own minds up whether to attend a meeting weighing up the chances of whether it'll be on or not because clubs haven't been consistent with their decisions in the past

In future Doyley can lay up at yours

... to 4h 40mins leaving Stansted on a Monday at 13:00

It wasn't though, if Doyley was due back in the UK at 12:30, that's cutting it all a bit fine... it's the fans that suffer as usual

The same thing as Lidsey? Doyley has been a loyal servant to British Speedway, you're correct. It is disappointing though

Charles Wright, who was out injured yesterday replaces Doyley... you couldn't make it up

When the automated starts were not used at Leicester recently it was announced over the PA, not sure if it has been at other tracks. Surely the ref would only need to press 1 button, once, to switch the green lights on and initiate the automatic procedure. What I did see looking at the BSN coverage was the tapes going up as soon as the ref pressed the 2nd button, every time.

All of this cancelling meetings shenanigans needs setting down in the rules in some way, there's far too much of it going on by many clubs in all leagues

She's more of a man than Blobby will ever be
