Jubilee Weekend Friday - Scunthorpe v Redcar 5pm
IainB replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Never mind hook a duck and bouncy castles... Will there be enough medical cover in place for this match? You'd think the promotion would be in a rush to re-assure disgruntled fans, but no mention -
Sounds like I dodged a bullet there... will you be returning on Saturday?
-
Come back to me in 5 years on those Never going to happen unless a rule is introduced to include protected "home grown" riders in your team. 15 heats drag on at Leicester, 30 take an eternity! And the Leicester track is not conducive to great junior racing
-
Because there's almost no chance of any of the cubs riders making it into the senior team, let's face it the Thompsons are beyond the level of NDL racing these days and I'm not naive enough to think for one moment that if their points average didn't fit that one or both of them would be shown the door in favour of strengthening the team. How long have Berwick been running a junior team? Who has graduated into your senior team? Leon Flint? He seems to have a decent future in front of him, the jury is still very much out with Kyle Bickley. And if any of them do make it to a sufficient standard they'll be off to greener pastures as soon as there's an opportunity to make some serious money. Dan Bewley, Robert Lambert If you want to follow your junior team, fair enough, absolutely no problem with that what so ever, just don't expect us all to have that same interest and being forced to pay extra admission to not watch them

It's not bad if you're interested in both matches... unfortunately I have zero interest in the 2nd match Ah... but we've got another double header next week as well!

Birmingham v Leicester 01.05.22
IainB replied to GiveusaB's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Should this be 01.06? -
£22 is less than the equivalent fixture last year isn't it?
-
Well... as long as it's saving them money!
-
Why is this fixture a double header every year though?

Not strange at all, you must be looking for something when you go to the Speedway, or why bother? -
Should run them both at Bewick then
-
Let's get stuck into this one nice and early.. A double header again this season with the junior match following the seniors. This season though I understand that season ticket holders are being granted free admission to Cubs matches, so will the promotion be pegging the prices for this one for non season ticket holders? And of course the usual question... can they run a double header in under 4 hours?

It's 2-2 then, I and the update texter enjoyed it, you and Nassa10 didn't, but the facts were reported, if you don't find that kind of Speedway racing exciting fair enough, I'm not quite sure what you're looking for -

From updates: Lots of overtaking between Morris and Wright in the opening two laps. J Thompson took the lead at the end of the third lap having closed the gap between him and Edwards. J Thompson taking second place on the second lap. D Thompson separates the Bears pair on the second bend of the first lap but Wright regained second place on the third lap. Morris took the early lead and left his team mate to battle it out with the Bears pair. Bears gate but Worrall uses the inside line & goes up the inside of them both. Excellent heat for J Thompson, he was in last place until the last lap where he passed the Bears individually on bends to take second place. Jenkins chases down Morley on L2 then goes after Thompson. I'm sorry you missed all that, maybe next time you come down you should pay more attention -

I really don't know why they did that after the Redcar meeting, yes the track was bumpy but the racing was excellent perhaps the fact that your Bears took a pumping has clouded your judgement? -

Didn't realise you were Scunny, shame to give up now though, besides you have your readmission ticket to use -

All of the Scunthorpe people have gone strangely quiet... especially the regular contributers on here, they haven't even got anything to say about last night -

IainB replied to IainB's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Although the racing has been top notch again... 90 minutes for 11 races with no incidents? If it produces racing like this, mustn't grumble i suppose -

It's generally been like this all season, the last match wasn't very good, but normal service seems to have been resumed
