Thanks, forgot about that rerun.

1 heat was rerun when Smith Ex. Very refreshing to have no starting reruns.

I have Sky Q but the same happened to me. Set it to record a few days ago, when I checked before the meeting it had disappeared. It’s done this a few times, hence me checking. Also have to record the programme after as will cut off if meetings overrun. Very frustrating. Nearly missed a very entertaining meeting.

Dreadful decision to change the WTC format for a Pairs event. What were they thinking? Poland were too dominant? 4 individual riders going for it will always deliver over 2 team riders content to sit 2nd & 3rd. They had a decent product, only essential was to ditch the ridiculous joker.

Who knows!!! Ged’s Problem was he was too open. That doesn’t make the situations any different, according to your ‘contract details’. Maybe you know more than me. They both missed BSPA events.

I didn’t and thought it was a poor choice of words given ones own mind challenges. Maybe just reacted too quickly.

Does it really matter if it is a rule or not? Just because riders don’t go running to the unfortunate casualty doesn’t mean they don’t care for their team mate. The absolute priority is immediate medical attention.

Pinny and The Doctors ‘mind game’ posts allude to much more than the usual red tape barriers.

Sweden and Poland run with Squads. With so few PL fixtures these days, why they agree dates knowing riders will be missing, and the financial impact it creates, makes no sense to me. Understand you cannot predict qualifiers but surely it’s more cost effective to reschedule when several riders are confirmed unavailable.

He did, you didn’t read it.

The contribution and absolute dedication from Neil and supporting team is a major positive for British Speedway. Amongst so much negativity and self interest they maintain an essential youth lifeline. Several promising prospects coming through, gives us some hope.

Absolute boloxio!!! Years of experience yet you post with such ignorance. I’m alright Jack, pull up the ladder! You could not be more wrong. Pleased you found an ‘easy’ remedy, many others don’t.

That would be very naive, short term thinking. The youngsters often bring / persuade / encourage the paying parents.

Ostergaard and Grondal riding in Denmark Friday.

Very sad we have lost the biggest name in World Speedway. Speedway = Ivan Mauger. The ultimate legend - RIP.

Don’t think Haza was saying that.

Relieved to read JD’s tweet.

Why would someone, in the vicinity, say it has rained all day if it wasn’t ‘true’? What is the reasoning behind your ‘fib’ and ‘running scared’ accusations? It’s pi$$ed down for four days.

Maybe you should read the full post before responding.

Grasstrack meeting at Tallington (20 mins from EOES) Sunday, 12:30 KO. For those that would like to make a day of it. Weather permitting.

Ford’s ilk closing Coventry Speedway. Forgive me if I wasn’t successful in cracking the code.

Disagree. The results speak for themselves - very different people and business models.

If Coventry Speedway had Ford’s ilk, they’d more likely still be open.

You’re completely missing my point regarding this ‘one off’ meeting and it’s meaning.

Really don’t understand the conspiracy theories. The Ben Fund is a one off season meeting that survives on maximising essential fund raising opportunities. As previously stated, the delayed start time and severe weather forecast would have a significant negative impact on the attendance and funds raised. The place is flooded with -7 wind chill temperatures. In my opinion definitely the right call. Sadly the dog with the bone is gagging for the “told you so” moment. Without consideration regarding the bigger picture.
