Glasgow V Edinburgh ,wednesday 29/6/16, Sky Sports 7.30pm
screm replied to Pogo1's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Hopefully this will be a great advert for speedway in general and PL speedway inparticular. -
I think its fair to say the track did get plenty of rain during Saturday afternoon, as it was quite a thunderstorm.
-
Wasn't the second line at the gate meant to stop all that, but I agree with you if a riders makes a start without touching the tapes I fail to see why the race should be brought back. For example the only rider who touched the tapes last night was Theo Pijper, who should IMO opinion been excluded as this rule that if the bike touches the tapes your out but if the rider touches the tape your fine should be tidied up so if anything touches the tapes your excluded.

Whilst I get your point, the track shape is what it is and we have had very good meetings at Berwick, this season's meeting with Redcar arguably the best. Maye more should be made of how poor Workington were as to the reason for the lack of entertainment last night, not great when you see a riders bike fail twice before he has started a race, another fail to get anywhere near scoring a point, and another who it appears clearly didn't want to be there in the first place.

Haven`t watched a replay yet of last nights meeting but I think its fair to say it was exactly a classic and probably didn't make for good tv, bit of a first heat decider. That said when you get a poor team racing away at a team riding well and with confidence, and that team lives up to their poor rating then you get an easy home win. Roynon and Williamson should've stayed at home, and what looked like a capable top five, they were blown away by the home riders, so maybe a little bit of credit for Berwick please. Sad to see at least one Workington rider taking to social media to blame his and his sides poor performance on Berwick, and its track, and another, this time a Plymouth rider criticising Berwick, but at least Mr Kurtz will get his chance this coming Saturday to show just how good a rider he is. Correct, it should be celebrated that we have at least one track trying to attract the cameras to their track instead of some who appear to do anything possible to fight them off. Credit to Berwick at least for that, and by the amount of times Sky keep coming back it would appear they see the work being done by our promotion, staff, and fans.

The guys with the flag were staying in the same hotel as me, and we're in the same section in the stadium, that flag has been to quite a few SGPs. Still stuck in Prague that to Easyjet cancelling my flight.
-
Thoroughly enjoyed last night's SGP, sat next to some guys from Wolverhampton, delighted to see so many Brits there, the down side is that I am stuck in Prague till tomorrow as Easyjet cancelled my flight late last night.
-
I am not a million miles from the track and if what's over my hotel now is or has been over the track we have very little chance of seeing any SGP tonight.
-
Had a couple of light showers but its now clouded over but still very warm. Thunder has arrived in Prague !!!.
-
One or two clouds but still sunny and very warm.
-
Woffinden is a course and distance winner so you won't go far wrong there, but there is thunder showers forecast for this afternoon which will render practice pointless and level this up.
-
No freezing this year round, lovely start to today, finger crossed it stays that way.
-
Went to practice, all riders had track time apart from Nicki Pedersen and Antonio Lindback. I am hoping tomorrow's forecast is wrong as it's saying thunder showers for tomorrow afternoon, very warm in Prague this evening.
-
I stayed there last year, very nice hotel, only draw back for you is that its just a hope skip and a jump away from a big shopping centre.
-
Did the good lady fly out of Edinburgh, there was a number of Glasgow fans on my flight this morning.
-
Very warm today in Prague. Anyone know what time practice starts.
-
Danny King won his British title, deservedly, but on a track affected by rain, if those are the conditions come the end of July he could well get the nod, but surely as its his home track Scott Nichols should start as favourite.
