I'm no prude and am not adverse to a bit of effing and jeffing myself... in the right environment though. Would it be acceptable for example for the centre green presenter to swear during his presentation? I think not If i wanted an incoherent sweary old man in my living room I'd take in the local tramp. It's no coincidence that Sky binned bin off and BT & Eurosport have never touched him with a barge pole and he seems quite bitter about that. For me he very nearly spoiled what was otherwise an excellent night off Speedway and didn't add anything to the broadcast rambling on with his incoherent anecdotes during races.

I think it's far more professional than other so called professional broadcasters. And I also think that the people that run it like to think they are running a professional outfit, you can tell that by the investment in new kit, the great comms with customers etc. I don't think we'll be seeing Havvy on there again in a while

So in his commentary he managed to say B*ll*cked, @rse, 5h1t, F'd off a number of times and a debateable F**kin... what a pro

Great comeback from the Bears, brilliant performance by Jordan Jenkins, Speedway at its best. Whoever wins, Speedway is the winner tonight

Havvy's accent has broken the kit

I like how Kyle Newman's pit bay just has a strip of tape through the name Bickley

Yeah, Danny King letting them down big time

Some good Speedway tonight. Interesting that Tom Brennan has been given the captaincy ahead of Craig Cook

Well he definitely just said bollocked there... ironic really as he spent most of his time on Twitter pre pandemic slagging Kelvin Tatum and Nigel Pearson off for their commentary Wouldn't surprise me if he gets the hook in the next few heats

No, before that, it was bearly understandable whatever he said

Ver, ver drunk

Did he just drop an F-Bomb there?

Sounds like the drunken tramp in town shouting at the pigeons

Has anybody managed to catch ANYTHING Havvy has said yet?

A proper 3 or 5 Test series like we used to have would be far more tempting for me

No maybe... he did, just look at the score sheet

Yet completely qualified on merit

Great result for Swedish Speedway with Kim qualifying, he's quite a stylish rider and hopefully with the right kit he'll do a better job than Berntzon did

it takes 2 to tango

Perhaps Ronnie O'Sullivan will be there

Why so?

Tbh, not sure what the prize money is, if that's true, has it improved the show? For me the pit layout is about the only improvement DSE have made. At the end of the BSI/IMG era the riders were hidden away in their pit bays... It always used to give me a laugh watch Nicki Pedersen blow his nose into a paper towel and then run it through his hair

And they're not the only advertising signs that have gone missing. You look back over previous years and there were some pretty big name sponsors, global corporates, I seem to remember Fiat, Coca-Cola, Monster Energy. Look at what's there now: some dodgy bitcoin merchants, a dodgy tyre supplier and some polish haulage company.. Eddie Stobartski The SGP series is currently at the lowest ebb it's ever been imo

If you think the last lot didn't move the series forward... you must love the new lot!
