  1. A real shame to be shutting down with over 2 months of the season still to go then 🤷‍♂️
  2. It could be some end of season tournament for those that didn't qualify for the play offs... then joined by the losing semi finalists or something, I know the fans definitely bought into the 4's, trouble is the riders probably didn't 🤷‍♂️
  3. Does GP challenge trump SEC as far as SGP qualification is concerned? 2nd, 3rd & 4th in the SEC have already qualified for the 2026 SGP, if Dudek doesn't win SEC does the 5th place in the GP challenge get the SGP quali spot?
  4. Unfortunately I think it requires too much effort on behalf of the so called promoters rather than any apathy from the fans, you only have to see the crowd that the PCMT attracts at the start of the season at Belle Vue to see that fans will support such events... I think the same goes for international test matches.
  5. Should do away with the BSN Series, it's only a early season fixture filler and nobody really cares who wins it. I'd rather see the reintroduction of the 4's in some form.
  6. No, I'm saying the track is the same for both teams, as a neutral I've seen better and I've seen worse, if you're blaming the track for the Tigers performance you're way off the mark my friend.
  7. Well... after heat 12 you can't blame the track, Glasgow team is stacked with experience they're well clear with Poole at the top of the league, they just shouldn't be this bad.
  8. Absolutely shocking stuff from the Tigers, that's the difference with Poole, they just don't go missing like Glasgow have this afternoon! Cami Brown should be apologising to the fans for this display.
  9. No flashing lights on the Worky track equipment... 2 league points fine and award the match to Glasgow?
  10. British Speedway official TwitterX had already posted it so surely no further action will be taken... there certainly shouldn't be!
  11. Fair enough, I will say though you did open up by saying "if" Scunny return next year... as there are already rumours surrounding many tracks in this country I was quite shocked to hear you use the word "if" regarding Scunthorpe and I bet a fair few others were too. As regards talking yourself out of a job, history suggests that it is not a good idea to question a club owners attitude during an interview, it tends not to end well for the interviewee 😂 Fair play for your honesty though 👏 Not sure of your situation with Dougy, but if he had to make a choice between riding UK and not riding UK next year would you still be working with him if he chose the latter?
  12. I didn't see the mechanic throw his arms up at the start of it all... hilarious 🤷‍♂️🤣
  13. British Speedway have posted the fight on their Twitter/X feed... so the riders should be getting appearance fees and advertising royalties!
  14. The Plymouth Gladiators will be boosted by the return of Danish star Nicolai Klindt for their final home fixture of the season this Saturday against the Berwick Bandits. Klindt has been watching closely from the sidelines in recent weeks and admits it has been tough not being involved: “I’ve been following the boys closely over the last couple of meetings where I unfortunately haven’t been available. Our last home meeting ended in a very narrow loss, with Lasse, Joe and Ben all being out due to injury, it would have been a different story if they’d been there. I’m really excited about finally being back at the Coliseum and I aim to bring my away form into Saturday and finish our season off with a win. Mark, Gary and everyone at the club deserves so much more than this season has ended up with due to injuries and misfortune, so to finish off with a big win against Berwick would be a great way to finish off this season at home!” With his determination clear, Klindt will be looking to lead from the front and give Gladiators fans the result they deserve on what promises to be an emotional night at the Coliseum. The curtain comes down on an action-packed speedway season this Saturday 23rd August at the Plymouth Coliseum, as the Plymouth Gladiators take on the Berwick Bandits in their final home race meeting of 2025. That's quite the read!
  15. He said "if" Scunny return next year then the whole attitude of the club needs to change and change from the top!
  16. Wow! Pretty strong words from David Howe... may have just talked himself out of a job!
  17. ... so do we know why Charles Wright missed this meeting? The BSN commentator said he aggravated an injury riding for Landshut the day before... even though it doesn't appear that Landshut were riding from what I can find and the Oxford management said he aggravated his injury on the Saturday night at Plymouth... even though he never fell and completed all of his rides. Was this more to do with money one wonders 🤔
  18. I'm not sure whether that was a good thing or not tbh... Is any Speedway, however farcical at times, better than no Speedway? Having witnessed the goings on over (at least) the last 2 years I'm not sure it is.
  19. Hasn't he put them through hell? 🤔
