Championship League Riders' Championship at Poole
IainB replied to cinderfella's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Except for the Women taking part in the sport... Do you have any video links to the same moves played out in Poland every week? -
This is the problem when a club has a track record of calling matches off on weather forecasts... Fans don't know where they are when there has actually been some substantial rain. Couple that with the riders attitude when the track is slightly wetter than usual and it throws a lot of doubt over the suitability of running the match. I'm planning on travelling over from Leicester for this... have serious doubts though, especially after watching the goings on at KL and Plymouth this week.

Sheffield v Belle Vue 25th August
IainB replied to 4thbender's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Should set fire to the track like they did at Plymouth the other night! -
R/R for MPT and Simon Lambert for Ulle... and Sheffield is off, this is allegedly still on!

I think a lot of Pirates are wearing two eye patches -
Have a search around Google on whether it's acceptable to refer to a Woman as a lady and make your own mind up. For me it does seem a rather old fashioned term, something I associate with Tennis... the Ladies Singles Final etc. The beeb do like a minority sport (except for Speedway it would seem), but even more than a minority sport they like Women's sport, they have in the recent past shown Women's Football, Cricket & Rugby, despite the crowd levels being on a par with "established" sports like Speedway (and others)

Lol... you can't just ride through a rider as if he wasn't there, MPT clearly HAD to take avoiding action as Lawson rode straight through him and by the time Lawson DID touch him, however slight, it was only going to end one way. -

Should have gone to Specsavers -
I wonder if the BSPL have approached the beeb about televising the series... it should be right up aunties alley! Are there 16 "ladies" competing in Speedway?

One can only assume they have the track covers on

The season?

I don't know... but not a Union Flag, it was not a national championship. Does the Championship League have an identity? It should have its own logo. -

Agreed... I thought Dave Rowe was a lot better without Sam Ermolenko -

You only have to look at the history books to see that a good U21 rider doesn't always go on to be a good senior rider... a lot fall by the wayside for whatever reason. Did Dan Bewley show anything on the world U21 stage? -
... and crossed fingers

I always go by the rain fall radar, it shows what is actually happening and shows which way the weather is actually tracking rather than a forecast, especially for short term weather... different strokes for different folks though

And of course Tom is already a World Champion -
have you seen the rainfall radar? https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/public/weather/observation/map/#?map=Rainfall&zoom=8&lon=-0.58&lat=52.15&fcTime=1661376300

Looking at the path the rain is taking there is not a cat in hells chance of this meeting taking place... why do they call meetings off a day in advance based on a forecast of showers and then not call it based on a forecast of prolonged heavy continuous rain? Strange

Is it the rain that was due at KL on Monday night?
