Stoneroses Posted January 9, 2020 Report Share Posted January 9, 2020 Great guy. One of the few you made sure you didn't miss his heat's. RIP Roman Matousek 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlieboy Posted January 10, 2020 Report Share Posted January 10, 2020 Definately mr showman and when he was on it he was superb to watch. I think it was a bonus point run off with Jimmy Nilsen ,who was a hard rider and Roman reeled him in and got between Nilsen and the fence when there was hardly any room.This took Nilsen by surprise and everybody in the stadium .Absolutely amazing. R I P Roman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShyTalk Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Just read the following on Stratrax (stock cars) website. Lots of work has been ongoing with a revamp of the Sheffield pits area to commence early March and we are in serious discussions about re -opening at least part of the back straight - We are developing Sheffiled in the coming years hopefully to become the jewel of the North and it has a much livelier fixture list in 2020 which will also feature Bangers & support formulae programme. Interesting bit about the back straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewswasking Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Good news about the back straight, my favourite spot, opposite the starting gate. Just need the fixture list now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cue Ball Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 So I read that as saying... “Sheffield speedway will be crap this year due to additional stock car and banger races resulting in the track being torn to shreds on a regular basis. There will also be an abundance of punctures.” Hope that they enforce them tidying up after themselves a bit better than they have in previous years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cue Ball Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Hmmm... past experience of how the track has been left unfortunately suggests that Jesus could be the track curator and it would still be a struggle to it anywhere near its best!!

ShyTalk Posted January 23, 2020 Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 Fixtures now out. All Tigers home matches on Thursday. I wonder if this means that some Eurosport matches will be shown Thursday,'s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Charlieboy Posted January 23, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 Thoroughly enjoyed the evening with Nicki Pedersen comes across as a nice bloke off track. I think everybody there can’t wait for the season to start now. Told some good stories and said he can’t wait to get started. Well done Nicki and thanks for giving your time up to come across from Denmark to meet the fans. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve55 Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 Good to see some TV news coverage of Speedway tonight, even though it was local (Look North BBC), covering Nicki Pedersens introduction to the fans at Owlerton last night. This is what the man brings and it shows how important having riders like him in Britain is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can accept rain offs, but some of the other reasons are getting ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
