Difficult to believe, i know, but actually Chris Harris was the fastest on the night! Those transponders seem about as reliable as the tyres :D

I doubt very much that any fans actually travelled from Poland just to watch that meeting, more likely they were Poles who actually live and work here, just a bit of journalistic licence by Ian Brannen I reckon.

I paid for the stream, was considering going but ran out of time to get there, so it was a handy option and I saved a few quid as well. Enjoyed the meeting, great to see the main stand looking almost full to capacity.

Can't really blame the ref for Doyle's misfortune in the final, there's no way he could've known that spokes had been shed, nobody came off, so no reason to stop the race.

I thought Max Fricke was the fastest rider on view but, as he and Dan both said, there was little traction to be had in the final and Brady had the best line.

Welcome back speedway.  

There were a few guys from Rawicz there as I spoke to them..! Don’t underestimate how far some of the Poles will go for some speedway, they’re on another level

It's probably easier to get from and back to Rawicz than it is trying to navigate the British motorway network after 10pm in 2024!

Is Sam Hagon any relation to Alf Hagon or his descendants.??

Good to see the young ones shaping so well. Impressed With Cook and the two Connors. Initially looked like Blodorn had took a leap forward. 
Re Celina, she is having a go at a sport she loves, just like many other youngsters. Nothing wrong with that.  How far will she develop……who knows. What I havnt seen in any video clip etc is she mixing it on the first corner (in a tough way). She has got speed and very steady. I give her 10/10 for the courage to have a go.

Sam is the son of Martin Hagon

He's also the son of Charlotte Hagon, Bob Dugard's daughter who is the sister of Martin and Paul Dugard.

Comes from good speedway stock.

Perhaps he could have a word with some of his relatives on behalf of all of Eagles fans re allowing speedway back at Arlington - we live in hope
