  1. It'll be interesting to see how many are there tonight as I can't imagine many making the trip from Ippo other than a hardcore and Peterborough riding just down the road
  2. It's difficult to judge crowd numbers but Leicesters last Thursday seemed to be decent-ish without being anything to write home about. I was at Peterborough's opener and there was a buzz about the place unlike at Leicester. One thing I did notice was that the 50/50 draw numbers (or whatever they call it) seemed to be down at about £350 ish and last year I'm pretty sure it was around £450 ish... not that scientific but maybe an indicator?
  3. LEICESTER: Max Fricke, Justin Sedgmen, Richard Lawson, Chris Harris, Nick Morris, Jake Allen, Dan Thompson. IPSWICH: Jason Doyle, Erik Riss R/R, Danny King, Keynan Rew, Emil Sayfutdinov, Danyon Hume, Joe Thompson.
  4. More than NP... who they signed for one bend
  5. Might book it and take a massive dump under one of the floorboards then
  6. Berwick are poor tonight, their top men can't make a start to save their lives! When you're being beaten by Bomber out of the starts you need to be asking yourself some serious questions
  7. OK... I think I've got it, it was going to be Jake Allen guesting when the Czech round was going to be today, then it was moved to tomorrow and Brennan thought he could ride tonight, so they cancelled Allen, then Brennan realised he couldn't make it for tomorrow at 09:30 so Glasgow used R/R... I'm going for a lie down
  8. So it was always going to be tomorrow... just later in the day? The poster on the GB Speedway team twitter feed says it was going to be today at 15:00, he would never have made it back from that
  9. Wasn't that due to be tonight anyway? Assuming it was and he was always going to ride in it, he was never going to ride in this. Or am I missing something?
  10. My memory's a bit fuzzy, but didn't he effectively say he'd lost his bottle, lasted more than a bend though!
  11. Phil Morris will devise a new Gregorian calendar adding the months of Julember, Decemburary & Augril and the Speedway season will be extended into those months
  12. Will you turn up and support the BSN Series if you can't be guaranteed to see a final if your club reaches it? This is the whole principal. We reached 2 finals last year at Leicester and the majority of fans didn't get to see either
  13. Actually, I think the purpose of fixed race nights was to allow for the dreaded doubling up Track conditions, we had a massive cloud burst around 4pm, Worrall said that if the track had been like it was last year then it wouldn't have taken place. Which is a shame, because I think some of the bumps last year actually added to the racing, swings and roundabouts though. I'll reserve judgement on the track "improvements" until it's prepared without any extreme weather intervention I think this may have come across better if Nicki had released some kind of video statement and owned it rather than letting speculation grow
  14. I can't quite remember a meeting like it for bike problems... it was like we were back in the 70's
  15. Morris also passed Puk in Heat 11 with a lovely move. Maybe the problem was with the new floodlights... I was expecting a vast improvement and if anything I think they're worse. Maybe after a bit of alignment they'll light the track up instead of the centre green and shining directly into @bigcatdiary's eyes
  16. Sedgeman genuinely passed Richie Worrall in heat 1... it's £21 to get in mate and you're missing most of what happens
