SHEFFIELD: Jack Holder R/R, Anders Rowe, Chris Holder, Leon Flint, Josh Pickering, Jye Etheridge, Luke Killeen. LEICESTER: Ryan Douglas, Drew Kemp, Nick Morris, Dan Thompson R/R, Sam Masters, Kyle Howarth, Joe Thompson. DT confirmed as giving the Lions a miss! As will I 👎🏻 What a tin pot sport it has become in this country, I'll save myself a packet and catch some z's watching Ippo on BSN 😴

Listening to Rohan Tungate being interviewed in Australia at the start of the year, when asked if he'd be back in the UK in 2026 he said he didn't know as there were a few issues still to be sorted from the 2025 season.

There goes the rest of the Speedway clubs in the UK 👋

No... but you can have Paco 😁

"a severe left ankle injury"

2nd? To be fair, they may need a local wild card if Fred ain't fit for this... but otherwise there's really no need for local wild cards especially in established Speedway nations who already have competitors in the event.

I thought he takes himself out of teams doesn't he? 🤔

I think he'll win it 👍🏻

UK doctors are great at issuing sick notes though, even for the slightest ailment 📝 👍🏻

He had a little episode with Peterborough/Torun back in the day but I think that was more down to the Peterborough promotion than him.

At least his stretcher is in Sheffield Colours... very on brand😂 A lot on here don't like the fella... I think he's great 👍

To be fair, it's probably more (some) people on here talking Mayfield up rather than Mayfield themselves 👍

While they're hammering the likes of Ippo & Leicester like they are they're easily going to pickup the bonus and seem pretty unbeatable over 2 legs of a play off (at the moment)

I get it and I'm not calling them out, all I'm saying is talk is cheap. Promote your club\event, introduce your changes and then sing it from the hilltops 📢

It sounds very much like the crowning of a new PM, they always sound very impressive when stood on the steps of downing street with all their big plans, once the door closes behind them and the reality sets in they soon find that they can't really do anything and we end up with business as usual

I think Rob Lyon hinted at it tonight but I don't think Fricke should have ridden, he had a massive off in the GP only 2 nights ago and was clearly still feeling the effects, it's a mark of the man though and how committed he is and has been to the UK 👍🏻👎🏻 It's easy to get used to the many riders that take the pish out of British Speedway, even British riders, but we mustn't forget that not all of them are like that.

The track looked almost unrideable after so little rain, but to be fair it looked unrideable for the stars riders even before the rain. You can see why they cancel it at the first sight of a cloud on the radar 😉

Final "tassels" count... 10! Not even close 👎🏻

I do wish BSN would show an updated league table after the meeting, surely it can't be that difficult 🤷‍♂️ Instead we have to listen to the work experience girl.

Interesting to hear Dan Thompson saying that he wanted to keep Jan Kvech guessing where he was going to ride while in front of heat 7... then followed up by an interview with Kvech saying he didn't know where Dan was going to ride 👍🏻

Agent Fricke your mission is accomplished 👍🏻

Check ✔️

If only Lynn had started at the advertised time 🤷‍♂️
