clambo71 Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I don't support either team, Just a visit to a track I've not been to before. The meeting was full of great racing with many incidents with wall of death passing round the boards,two riders in a punch-up, a manager being put on the deck and ending in a draw.If posters want to talk about rules then open a thread in speedway news and discussion I would to like read peoples views on a great meeting.

Fromafar Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 The rules really do need changed because there are far to many gaps there to be exploited. As you say though, you cant blame teams for exploiting them if the option is available to them.Rules on Foreign riders have to be looked at.too many just using GB for some extra earnings.IMO if a foreign rider is missing for any reason then there should be no facility whatsoever. ,that would eliminate a lot of mediocre riders stopping young British riders making progress.BSPA are keen to promote young Brits this would be a start.I still find it hard to believe that mediocre foreigners can make Britain pay.You can't blame Promotions for taking advantage of the rules. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAMYAMBANDIT Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Hopefully the authorities get to the bottom of the Kus situation and get proof of the illness, or no illness and then take the appropriate action. It stinks Berwick To be honest, Matej rides Sheffield well, although Jorgenson rode well, With Matej Kus riding we may well have scored more points from 7 rides closer to 21, then we would have taken the away win. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Racing at Sheffield can be great when 2 teams give it a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Nobody put on the deck, just some pushing and shoving with some old boy from the crowd trying to get involved. Nothing to it really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bandits4eva Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Nobody on the deck.. Bit of handbags from Simon Stead... Gave Razor a shove on his way back to the pits before David and Steady shook hands.. It was a cracking race between the two of them... Real hard stuff! Also, brilliant racing from Thomas Jorgensen.. His move round the 3rd/4th bend in one of his later heats had to be seen to be believed! Tis how I remember Owlerton! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cue Ball Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I suppose the rule was brought in to prevent riders being too ill to race at tracks they don't like and then fit for the home leg eg James Grieves went for a few years of always being mysteriously ill or injured when he was due at Owlerton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralMelchett Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 Who was in a punch up? No One! Steads bottom lip came out after being beaten by Bellego in what was a great race. Little bit of words and some shoving after the race but all sorted out. Steady then managed to be the only rider to beat bellego in heat 15 and they seeme dcordial afterwards. This was my first visit to speedway for two years and I really enjoyed the meeting, however the crowd and atmosphere was lacking last night. Berwick have a couple of cracking riders in Bellego and Jorgensen, his blast round the boards was awesome and deserved more reward than a puncture on the next lap ending his race! With racing like that I think I might start going again a bit more often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinh88 Posted June 28, 2014 Report Share Posted June 28, 2014 Next we'll have folk saying he will be competing with Woffinden for the world title At his best yes he will score a lot of points usually on the flat out circuits Plenty to improve on i.e small and tight tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
