  1. Mr Dickson must currently be sitting on the horns of a dilemma ... Joe Thompson's 28 day stint is coming or has come to an end and Dan Gilkes was at Leicester the other day having a practice. Does he bin off the steady Eddy Joe Thompson, who is currently 2nd only to Jason Edwards of the "Rising Stars" and must be said performing above and beyond anything we've ever seen from him before, albeit on his brother's engine... or does he choose to put, injury prone, Dan Gilkes back into the team? Decisions, decisions 🤔
  2. It's a strange one how Leon Flint can elect to do an SEC qualifier missing his Glasgow Cup match at Plymouth and receive no ban but "injured" riders cop a ban 🤔🤷‍♂️
  3. It's not just you, I said a few weeks ago that I'd lost my mojo and the meetings have been that few and far between I've not had much chance to try and get it back... an away victory at Sheffield and the scrap in the return leg did create a spark though. I'm planning on going to Northamptoningham on Thursday and hopefully with the SGP starting up and some more BSN coverage incoming I'll be back on track soon.
  4. Do they bring the ice smoothing machine out for 10 minutes after 4 minutes of play?
  5. He must be "working from home"
  6. They'll be warmly welcomed alongside all of the other crap tracks 👍🏻😂
  7. ... maybe this is one of the "wow!" news stories Rob Godfrey was teasing us with a few weeks back 🤔
  8. Seems to be a job for life and and the only way out is to retire. A normal organisation would have had a vote of confidence years ago.
  9. ... if only Kelvin Tatum had a pair of t1ts he could have gone on to broadcasting greatness 🤔😂
  10. He's only gone and bloody done it... and well done to him for speaking out... he's not telling us anything we don't already know that the BSPL chairman is rotten to the core (Quelle surprise) and desperately needs replacing, it's just a shame that it's taken this to get any rider to speak out about it... and the mind boggles as to the other goings on that we have never heard about... the BSPL makes Fifa look like the Salvation Army!
  11. There was certainly plenty of "incident" last night to keep folk interested even if the "racing" (passing) wasn't up to much. If it hadn't had taken them around 20 minutes per pop to replace the airbags there was nothing much else to complain about... they're certainly not going to get a job in an F1 pit crew with the amount of time it took them to replace the bags, they really need to be addressing that, I remember seeing the Birmingham track staff replacing an airbag in a matter of minutes a couple of years back, literally 2 or 3 minutes! Proving that it can be done. When you've had a 20 minute delay to replace an airbag, a 52 second race and then follow that up with a 10 minute track grade it's not really "fan friendly". Due to the tight, confined nature of the Plymouth track they really need to get on top of this issue.
  12. Prepare for a late night!
  13. The Plymouth track staff aren't going to win any prizes for air bag replacement! Pretty sure Kerr touched the tapes in heat 3 KJP looks a class act on and off the track Got to question Leon Flint missing bread and butter Glasgow matches chasing qualification for a competition he has almost zero chance of qualifying for and if by some miracle he did would probably miss a load more matches 🤷‍♂️ Klima a surprise packet especially on such a tight technical track @lewy got some good exposure tonight... money well spent 😂
  14. Will Ben Barker be exposing Rob Godfrey live on BSN tonight? 😲
  15. I would have thought an app would be a standalone piece of software to be installed through an app store and not something accessed through a web browser... could be wrong.
  16. I'm surprised elf and safety hasn't shut this practice down, is there any need for the flag marshal to be stood in the middle of the track? He ain't even wearing a hi-vis vest!
  17. That's what makes it okay though... something like Mr Dugards attack of Stefan Anderson though, all those years ago, was not pretty to watch!
  18. I've got to say Picko's opening (and only) punch was pretty pathetic 😂 All good stuff though and certainly charged the meeting and sparked a tremendous fightback from the Tigers 👏
  19. I don't as Speedway in the UK only attracts about 0.1% of its population
  20. Hey... that's the Knock-Out Cup for you 😂 Welcome to Speedway 👍
  21. I'm all for progress, but if it wasn't going to be ready for the start of the season, they really should have left it until next season imo... or at least signalled the change before selling season passes.
  22. Can't you set a laptop (or nuc) up and remote in using something like team viewer to start the stream going? All they'd have to do is turn the laptop/nuc on and switch the TV source to the required hdmi source?
