  1. I mean if they moved Friday's to Saturday, would they automatically move Saturday's to Sunday, or just go straight for the 2 in 1 day? Anything in the rules? Or is it a make it up as you go along thing?
  2. Didn't even know it was on 😁
  3. The riders, with today's bikes, seemed perfectly fine with things at Glasgow on Saturday night, racing on a wet track, often in driving rain... the difference, they were chasing personal World Championship glory in an FIM meeting as opposed to riding in a humdrum league meeting in front of one man and his dog πŸ•β€πŸ¦ΊπŸ§β€β™€οΈ
  4. Just watched it all back on BSN and Kemp was pretty hard on Flint in the first staging of 14, so received as good as he gave. Rerun was also the correct decision imo, they were still pretty close at the time of the stoppage.
  5. https://ukflattrack.forumotion.com/
  6. Should show some commitment to the UK then!
  7. Just do what I do and pretend there is no Speedway at King's Lynn... it works for me πŸ‘πŸ» They fell off my list of tracks to attend years ago. Been in the car park too many times as the meeting has been called off.
  8. Yeah, I'll admit British Speedway doesn't help itself with it's fixture (erm) planning, that's self inflicted but the BS he's pulled with Plymouth last season and now the last Redcar meeting are a pretty poor reflection on him... and he was rewarded with a testimonial meeting at the beginning of the season, just saying.
  9. If he's that Danish perhaps he should consider basing himself in Denmark. Like many riders, seem happy to base themselves in the UK while putting British Speedway at the bottom of their priority list.
  10. They may have to initially cut their squad size down but they can't be affording to lose their top stars due to injuries sustained abroad. It's the only thing missing from the Polish model to make it a real professional sport and it surely must be what they're working towards and they're probably only one big tv deal away from achieving it... Having said that I've just watched the ZG Leszno match, ran in front of a big, young crowd... but they didn't even have a children's race during the interval (with the obligatory rabid dog chasing them all around)... think how much that would add to the gate, they've definitely missed a trick there πŸ˜‰
  11. Are they Ai predictions that they show prior to a race? Maybe it's something we could utilise when calling a meeting off the day before, a bit like when the pools panel used to sit when football matches used to get postponed... it got that last one badly wrong though 😁
  12. And managed to conduct an interview without mentioning Greg Hancock πŸ˜‚
  13. When is Charles Wright likely to return?
  14. Poland really need to break the model and make their riders employees, it's the only thing missing from their business model and the day that happens all other professional leagues become amateur.
  15. He did take the p155 out of Plymouth for a whole season, we shouldn't be surprised really
  16. I agree, but I never paid more than Β£30 for a ticket at Cardiff after the first year after I realised there was an excellent view of the track no matter where you sat and I think the last ticket I bought cost me Β£23!
  17. Miracle recovery from Nicolai Klindt today in Rybnik racing to an unbeaten, 5 ride, full, 15 point maximum, must have flown over Lourdes on his way ✝️ Pulling moves like Michael Jackson while digging his start positions out at the gate with seemingly no ill effects from his knee injury πŸ‘πŸ» Must be a relief for all of the Bears' fans. 🐻🍡🍡
  18. ... and why haven't the Poles got words for "Man of the Match"? Listening to the commentator jabbering away in Polish and then all of a sudden I hear them say "Man of the Match" πŸ˜‚
  19. A half a million pound stand that they can't fill doesn't help matters! If it's 1 Manchester GP you can think about tickets costing double what they currently are πŸ€”
  20. That's as far as he's going... an extra pay day though πŸ‘πŸ»
