SharpenRake Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 A crucial match featuring the two best teams in the league and available on BSN, so Poole fans can watch some proper speedway (I reckon 2 minutes max ). 2 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheggie Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 I’m interested to see what the Tigers top 5 riding order will be? Maybe something like this?? 1. Harris 2. Vissing 3. Tarasenko 4. Brennan 5. Basso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harris 2. Vissing 3. Tarasenko 4. Brennan 5. Basso I would put Brennan at 2, Tarasenko at 5, and keep Claus and Ben together. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May to arrange it lol I don't think there were any Fridays both Oxford and Glasgow had free, or that weren't affected by riders appearing somewhere else. Understandable for both teams to want to be full strength. I think there was one week the teams could do but there were already other events on and it was asking too much of the track staff. That's the other thing we often overlook - some people take time off work to volunteer in order for us to get our fix. They give up a lot, but they still need to earn their living. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why, neither team was at full strength for original running. It's just a pet hate of mine. We used to run 16/17 home matches a season, now we struggle to find 10 Edited September 4, 2023 by Jaizer . 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rearranged fixtures depend on full availability while it's just your luck on normal fixtures set at the start of the season. Seems wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams should have to ride their rearranged fixtures on their alternative race day within 2 weeks whether all the riders are available or not it’s that they adverse to using guests any other time of the season.IMO Edited September 4, 2023 by Fromafar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could say they have to race on their next available race day? Agree with the second part, I'm so used to seeing guests, not racing because of riders missing? Well that's just par for the course Edited September 5, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think it matters. There were enough hints last night at Oxford that Poole and Oxford may pick each other. Can’t think why announcer emphasised Oxford will have a home meeting next week but maybe not on Wednesday unless they think Birmingham will make play offs.

So they are going to make the groups regionalised? If Plymouth make 6th place then we could have exactly same group as BSN one 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
