Freddie was great value as he gated last in most of his heats. King a deserved winner. One or two good prospects in the youth races too. And not cold Excellent meeting with some exciting and skilled racing. Three abreast for more than a lap suits me fine. Not too cold, Mr Bagpuss but then I’m a southern softie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched Live stream when will those in charge realise that the public do not want endless delays between heats. Why did you pay £14.99 when you criticised the line up ages ago??. That was before KK had to pull out !! Again your the only one complaining.. I think they did well to get the meeting on. Making plenty of money to go towards helping injured riders.... Maybe speedway isn't for you. Edited March 25, 2023 by Bald Bloke 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched Live stream when will those in charge realise that the public do not want endless delays between heats. I have to disagree with you about it being a crap meeting, there was some excellent racing at times, and I thought Danny King was a deserved winner. The junior racing was also very good considering their ages, and Neil Vatcher must be congratulated for the effort he puts into this level of racing. The Veterans was obviously just a nostalgia thing, but part of history of our sport. I do agree with you about the endless displays between heats, they were far to long. I wish Dick Barrie hadn't kept speaking on the centre concrete for so long at a time, thus making it a rush for Kevin Moore to read out the results and times. Just one thing mate, when giving the times, can you keep your voice raised please, as many of us around where I was, and you know where, just couldn't catch them. Just a request please, thanks buddy. I disagree with FinalBendThree, I was bloody frozen in the latter stages of the meeting. But hey ho, whatever our differing thoughts, the season is underway, and I hope bags of money was made. Have a good year, whoever you support. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've known Dick for years, he's a good guy. With regards to coming to Berwick, I've been twice from my Norfolk home, only to arrive for rain-off's both times. Enjoy your season, and hope the Bandits lift some silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methanol Junkie Posted March 26, 2023 Report Share Posted March 26, 2023 Hi guys, I second the request for heat times if anyone has them please? Knew it would happen that they make a big deal about my laps transponders but then the bspl website and the kings lynn website still don’t include them in reports etc lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be nice if you could acually have a discussion rather than slagging something off (as you normally do) and then disappearing when people disagree. Other than the delays which to be honest I didn't really notice as I was chatting to lots of people I hadn't seen for months, why did you think it was 'crap'? There was passing and close racing from the first heat to the last on a good surface between a well matched field and it raised money for a good cause. As somebody has said perhaps speedway is no longer for you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
