Interesting changes in Sweden & Poland for 2023
IainB replied to IronScorpion's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Why do we need a thread linking to another thread? -
I'm wondering where I go to for my refund as I attended the Peterborough leg on the understanding that this was leg 1 of 6. Why would any Speedway fan buy into ANY competition that is staged if they're not going to fulfil it?

Wrong section, I think you need the Fantasy Speedway League section

That's a shame, Sarj was a real prospect when he came onto the scene with Coventry. When Cov closed he seemed to lose his way a bit, I don't think Havvy helped him much as, publicly at least, he defended his jumping at the start as acceptable and often blamed the ref for stopping races after the start. Sarj became a bit of a laughing stock throughout the sport for this... if that had been coached out of his game a bit sooner, who knows?
-
He's got an excuse... he's Scottish
-
I know, pretty good eh... perhaps i should take over northern team management duties from Havvy? I can speak English and everything!

Jubilee championship league
IainB replied to westlakejawa's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Maybe make this into a knockout round robin... first leg at Glasgow, they can throw it get knocked out, the 2nd leg at Leicester, vs Poole, we get knocked out and then Poole can ride their home leg against nobody gloriously winning the trophy in front of a packed Wimborne Road, waving their phones about to Sweet Caroline being played over the PA -
There are rumours... but it is silly season
-
Just wait until next season!

From PL lite... to NDL+ Oh how the mighty have fallen I'm thinking maybe: 1 Ed Kennett 2 Max Clegg 3 Kyle Newman 4 James Shanes 5 Drew Kemp 6 Nathan Ablitt 7 Joe Thompson

I'd like to see the Cook brothers at Leicester, they'd be wasting their time, treading water down in the CL... maybe offer them a contact before the CL pay offs this coming Friday? Some exchange deal with Joe Thompson & Max Clegg maybe? -
Oh yeah... forgot, you guys are still down in the CL

A Poole 2023 thread... sounds like you've already given up on 2022!

Sheffield vs. Belle Vue Grand Final 2nd Leg 13/10/22
IainB replied to TTT's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Personally I think the atmosphere did come across on the TV, Speedway under lights on a super fast track in a cup final and you could hear the cheers from the crowd when there were incidents and passes, how often can you say that with Speedway? I do have a 5.1 Dolby Atmos home cinema setup though... it doesn't always need Sweet Caroline being played for there to be an atmosphere -

51/49? Not quite divisive enough... How about 52/48? -

I believe it was perfected by the Danes, Hans Andersen was particularly good at the move and to a lesser extent Nicki P... although he never quite nailed it, preferring to nail the rider instead. -

What I thought was missing was a rendition of Sweet Caroline after heat 14 with the fans waving their phones around with the lights on... that would have been so good, so good, so good! -

IainB replied to TTT's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Yes, fair play on those... all I've seen him do for most of this season is trail round at the back, he's hardly a habitual winner... oh and don't forget he massively let the Birmingham fans down, he's not a team man -

You would think he'd be well used to defeat by now! -

Or maybe some of his key riders didn't put a shift in over the 2 legs?
