Sheffield 2019


Recommended Posts

Kemp will increase his average to around 4.5 after a couple of meetings because of what he did in the CL last year at Ipswich. He will still beat most reserves(last years NL riders) & a few 2nd strings so I would move him to the 3 or 4 spot rather than no2 where he would ride with his no1 3 times. Maybe good for learning potential but not team/individual scoring. He should average around 5 - 5.50 in 2019.

Last night's STAARS meeting was made up of ex-riders Simon Green, Phil White and Doug Wyer who told anecdotes about their careers and what they did after retirement from speedway. Only Julie Reading was present from the management team and there appeared to be brisk sales of season tickets happening.

Julie confirmed that the anniversary meeting will be an individual meeting and that Ricky Ashworth is planning to attend.

I see the tigers have linked up with the Sheffield Steelers ice hockey.   They are going to offer a some kind of discount to the Steeler's season ticket holders which is great news but they could by missing a MASSIVE opportunity here. 

Why not offer £5 a meeting vouchers to be used for say 2 meetings valid until  the end of April to ALL Steelers fans.     There will be over 7000 fans at the ice hockey on Saturday night!   Both sports are very family orientated with ice hockey season just about to finish and the speedway about to start.

So there's been nothing on official news, and someone I know on FB went to Owlerton in midweek and all the tractors etc. were still in situ. Nothing on social media except for a post by poolebolton. Hmmm.

Kennedy did ok yesterday, was on the pace with the best of them really, but didn't do anything risky. Same for Anderson who would have done better if he hadn't been spinning up on the gate in most of his heats. King was up for it, but he didn't gate well in the final and was never going to get near the front. The one big positive (not for Sheffield!) was the return of "Basher" Bates, he looked good for the majority of the meeting, but petered out in his last few races. Didn't look as if he'd been out for a season and really attacked the track and put in one or two decent passes. Something for the Lions fans to look forward to this year.

All he does is post stupid stories on here with no substance behind him, not the first time. Just ignore him.
