KYLE MISSES OUT TO ANOTHER POOLE YOUNGSTER
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Saturday 31st July 2010
Mancunian Kyle Howarth just failed in his bid to go one better than last year in the British U18 championship at Somerset on Friday. Howarth looking to improve on that runners-up spot in 2009 had to eventually settle for the bronze medal as he was beaten by Poole-based youngster Brendan Johnson and the diminutive Joe Jacobs. Isle of Wight rider Johnson, competing for the final time in this class, made the most of the qualifying system. He scored 10 points in his five rides, one less than Howarth and two behind automatic finalists Joe Jacobs and Tom Perry.

But Johnson and Howarth, the latter a faller whilst leading in his third ride, took full advantage of the repercharge semi-final to join Jacobs and Perry in the final, at the expense of the impressive Jake Knight and stylish Jason Garrity. Then, off the same gate 2 as he had won the semi-final Johnson, who suffered life-threatening injuries last season, made a super start and kept Howarth and the hard-pressing Jacobs at bay. Jacobs was able to get by Howarth to snatch the runners-up spot admitting afterwards that he "had probably made a mistake in the choice of gates as he didn't want to get clamped on at the first turn".

Johnson was delighted with his victory claiming "I haven't been in the best of form this season so to win this is a great boost for me. I was suffering from carburettor problems early on but I kept plugging away and it came right for me in the end."

Howarth whilst disappointed not to have struck gold looked objectively at his achievement, "I thought that I had blown my chances when I tried to get off the slick stuff in the third ride only to be thrown off by the deeper dirt but I went on to make the rostrum. Of course I would have loved to have done better than last year, that was my aim, but hey I made the rostrum in the end and so it can't be all that bad".

Bournemouth's other competitor, John Resch had a fairly productive evening scoring 7 points from his five heats, including an impressive heat 15 win from the back.

Full Result
1.B.Johnson 10+3+3; 2.J.Jacobs 2+2; 3. K.Howarth 11+2+1; 4. T.Perry 12+0; 5. J.Knight 10+1; 6.J.Garrity 11+0; 7. A.Morris 9; 8. R.Franklin 9; 9. J.Resch 7; 10. J.Sarjeant 6; 11.

FEN TIGERS FANS MEETING
Friday 30th July 2010
Fenman Bar, West Row Stadium, Sunday 1st August 2.00pm
Further to numerous phone calls, emails and communications since the announcement that the Fen Tigers would be closed for the remainder of the 2010 season a meeting has been arranged for Sunday at 2.00pm where fans can get together to discuss possibilities for the future. The meeting has been arranged with the full cooperation of Mildenhall Stadium owner Dave Coventry who was happy to open up his facilities to the fans. At a difficult time for the track itself it shows his commitment to having speedway at the West Row track and Dave will be in attendance.

Former Mildenhall Speedway Commercial Manager Neil 'Nikko' Day arranged the meeting after speaking to a number of fans on Thursday who wanted to get together to see what could be done. Day is keen to stress that the meeting will not be able to give specific answers to what has happened over the past few weeks but is the chance for the fans, sponsors etc to get together to try and move forward and show people, including any potential new owners the depth of feeling and size of fan base that the Fen Tigers have.

Day confirmed that he will be asking Team Manager John Adams and Team Sponsor Neil Watson from Art and Stitch to attend as both have many years experience in speedway. If anyone has any questions regarding the meeting Neil can be contacted on 07538 317396.
 

YOUNG BUCCS LOOKING FORWARD TO THEIR BIG NIGHT
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Thursday 29th July 2010
Friday night sees a big night for two of the current Bournemouth Buccaneers as John Resch and Kyle Howarth head for Somerset to compete in the British U18 Championship. It is a competition in which Howarth finished runner-up in last season beaten by, then Buccaneer, Jerran Hart. That meeting was held on familiar Scunthorpe territory for Howarth but the Mancunian has risen considerably in stature since that meeting last September and there is no doubt that he will enter the Oak Tree Arena as one of the favourites.

Bournemouth Assistant team manager Neil Vatcher, who doubles up as a Team GB's U21 coach believes that Howarth could well go one better than last year "This is their British Final and will be great experience for these young guys and the way that Kyle has developed this season must rank him amongst a front runner for this year's title. John (Resch) too could be a spoiler at the very least, we saw how well he went in the qualifiers of the British U21s at Weymouth earlier in the year and I know that both the lads are eagerly looking forward to it. I really hope that some of the Bournemouth fans will make the trip up to Somerset to get behind the boys. I have been working closely with the youngsters this season at all levels and I have to say it is a major eye-opener. That is why I am so pleased that we will be hosting a second half event at Wimborne Road after next Wednesday's Elite league match between Poole and Eastbourne. We have 3 classes - 500cc, 250cc and 125cc - with three heats of each."

Friday's U18 championship will be covered by the Bournemouth Buccaneers' live Twitter update service and the line-up is;
Kyle Howarth (Bournemouth), Oliver Rayson (Mildenhall), Ben Morley (Rye House), Jason Garrity (Buxton), Tom Perry (Dudley), Joe Jacobs (Mildenhall), Shane Hazelden (Rye House), Tom Stokes (Unattached), Brandon Freemantle (Under 15s), John Resch (Bournemouth), Ashley Morris (Dudley), Jake Knight (Kings Lynn), Brendan Johnson (Isle of Wight), Rhys Naylor (Kings Lynn), Richard Franklin (Dudley), James Sarjeant (Unattached). Reserves: Darryl Ritchings (Dudley), Adam Kirby (Under 15s).
 

THERE'S NO BEATING BRUNDLE
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Wednesday 28th July 2010
James Brundle romped to his second successive NDL maximum of his brief spell with the Bournemouth Castle Cover Wessex Marine Buccaneers as the Dorset side moved to within one point of a qualifying position for the end of season play-offs. The Buccaneers 55-40 victory over Plymouth was spearheaded by a four ride maximum from Brundle who has now won all 9 league rides he has taken for the Bournemouth club. The 23 year old Norfolk born rider has only been beaten by one opponent since he linked up with the Buccaneers at the start of the month said of the whole team performance "We just have to keep the ball rolling now, we have hit a run of form and want to keep it going".

His opening 5-1 with Daniel Halsey saw the home side get off to the best possible start. the Buccaneers quickly building up a cushion of points over the Devils who had to wait until the 14th heat of the night before they could boast a heat advantage of their own. Reserve John Resch was the only rider not to register a win in his own right but the youngster can feel justifiably proud with his performance, weighing in with a solid paid 9 whilst Dan Halsey, who suffered a harsh disqualification in heat 6, and Mark Baseby were both paid for double figure returns. Kyle Howarth's single race win (heat 5) was a crucial one as it came at the expense of double-point seeking Nicki Glanz. With Karl Mason backing up in third place it meant that the visitors were unable to eat into the 10 point deficit.

That margin was maintained for a further two heats before Dan Halsey and Aaron Baseby clocked up a 4-2 advantage in heat 8. But the Devils weren't tempted to use their second tactical option straight away and conceded two big 5-1's in the space of the following five heats including a Brundle/Halsey maximum score over previously unbeaten Seemond Stephens in heat 10 and another Brundle inspired top score, this time with Mark Baseby in tow in heat 13. With the match beyond them, trailing by 20 points, Plymouth used Seemond Stephens as a tactical in heat 14 and he took the victory despite the chasing efforts of John Resch in second place, but with Kyle Howarth unable to prise an opening on Jamie Pickard in meant that the Devils could at least return to the St Boniface Arena in the knowledge that they had claimed one heat advantage over the Buccaneers.

Scorers
Bournemouth 55 J.Brundle 12 (3,3,3,3,3); D.Halsey 10+2 (2',FD,3,2',3); M.Baseby 9+1 (3,2,2,2',R); K.Howarth 7 (2,3,2,0); J.Resch 6+3 (2',1',1',2); K.Mason 6+2 (1',1,1',3); A.Baseby 5 (3,1,1,0)
Plymouth 40 - S.Stephens 14+1; M.Simmonds 10; N.Glanz 8; J.Pickard 4+2; D.Gough 2; M.Bates 2; B.Reade 0

BOURNEMOUTH RETURN TO WIMBORNE ROAD
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Monday 26th July 2010
After two successful away trips the Bournemouth Castle Cover/Wessex Marine Buccaneers return to Wimborne Road on Wednesday (28th) with the single goal of adding a further three league points to their tally. Bournemouth currently occupy a position outside of the top four places and that means that they will be looking to maximise their opportunities against a Plymouth side that trail them by two points from two more matches ridden.

Team manager Garry May is keen to see his charges extend the club's 100% home record but warns against complacency "We are a strong enough side to see off the challenge of Plymouth on paper I feel but that doesn't mean that we can in any way drop our guard. They have made changes recently, bringing in Nicki Glanz and having released, somewhat surprisingly, Paul Starke and Lee Smethills. But they still have the experienced heads of Mark Simmonds and Seemond stephens both of whom will be looking to make their mark against us. We saw a superb performance from our new boy James Brundle on Saturday night and I hope that there will be a good crowd present on Wednesday to give James a huge 'homecoming' after that maximum. The two away wins have given us a boost and whilst we still need to find some consistency within the team I will be happy if we come out of Wednesday on level league points with Mildenhall."

Teams from
Bournemouth - J.Brundle, K.Mason, M.Baseby, D.Halsey, K.Howarth, A.Baseby, J.Resch
Plymouth - N.Glanz, S.Stephens, M.Simmonds, M.Bates, D.Gough, J.Pickard, B.Reade
 

BRILLIANT BRUNDLE BANKS POINTS FOR BUCCS
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Sunday 25th July 2010
A brilliant 15 point maximum from James Brundle, Bournemouth's first full maximum of the season and their first unbeaten away performer of the campaign, ensured that the Buccaneers maintained their push for a play-off spot as they seek to defend their league title. Brundle oozed class as he strung together five unbeaten rides against a Rye House side that began the evening 7 points clear of the Buccaneers.

He may have considered himself a little fortunate that heat 13 was called back after former Rye House rider Daniel Halsey took a purler on the first turn of lap 2. At the time Brundle was being headed by Lee Strudwick but in the re-start, that was without Halsey, Brundle made a much better start and secured his fourth race win of the night. More importantly it maintained the slender two point difference between the two sides - a level that had never been higher throughout the course of the match. It was in fact the 8th shared heat of 13, the Cobras having claimed two heat advantages, both of a 5-1 magnitude, whilst Bournemouth had countered with three 4-2 advantages.

But a heat 14 maximum return from Kyle Howarth, who became the first Buccaneer to breech the 100 race point mark with his only victory of the night, and Aaron Baseby after the impressive Shane Hazelden had crashed out, switched the advantage to Bournemouth and with 'heavyweights' Halsey and Brundle up againt a somewhat subdued guest of Jerran Hart and Lee Strudwick the pendulum had swung in the visitor's favour. None more so when Strudwick suffered machine gremlins as the riders were being called into line for the final heat. With the time allowance exhausted Strudwick, who had featured in the Cobras first 5-1 of the night which had brokenm the three heat deadlock, was obliged to go off 15 metres and also switched the gates into Bournemouth's favour. Brundle's brilliance shone through and with Halsey alongside him the Buccaneers never gave the Rye House pairing a look in during that final heat for a 48-42 scoreline which clinched the three league points for Bournemouth.

James Sarjeant, riding in place of John Resch, had an eventful night for Bournemouth. Suffering two heavy falls in heat 2 he managed to eventually secure second place, on a Kyle Howarth bike, once the heat had gone its distance, the impressive Shane Hazelden having been harshly disqualified from the first re-run as the alleged cause of Sarjeant's fall. On his next appearance Sarjeant demolished the starting tapes to add to his woes before completing his mandatory three rides with two last places. The Cobras went into the meeting with a somewhat weakened side and were rocked further when Ben Morley was forced to withdraw after two rides with a recurrence of an ankle injury.

Scorers
Rye House 42: S.Hazelden 11; J.Hart 10; D.Mason 8+2; L.Strudwick 8+2; T.Stokes 4; B.Morley 1+1 (Rider replacement operated for K.Hughes)
Bournemouth 48: J.Brundle 15 (3,3,3,3,3); A.Baseby 7+3 (1',1,1',2,2' ); K.Mason 7+1 (2,1',3,1); K.Howarth 7+1 (1',2,1,3 ); D.Halsey 7+1 (Fd,2,3,Fd,2' ); M.Baseby 3+1 (0,1,1',1); J.Sarjeant 2 (2,Tx,0,0)
 

HALSEY COULD HOLD THE KEY
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Thursday 22nd July 2010
Bournemouth Buccaneers travel to Rye House on Saturday 24th July looking to build on their league win they gained at Weymouth last Friday. The victory in the Dorset derby was the Buccaneers first league win on the road this season and with the target of making the top four still uppermost in the minds a further haul of league points will give the Buccaneers the boost they need.

Saturday will see a return to Hoddesdon for Daniel Halsey and team boss Garry May is hoping that Daniel could be the key to any Buccaneers' success "Dan had a somewhat indifferent start to the season but more recently he has shown that he has turned the corner and been putting in some much better performances and riders returning to former tracks always have that extra little desire to do well. I hope that the motivation of his return will be enough to fire him up more so perhaps than anything I say to him. I am also hoping that Mark Baseby can continue in the vein that he showed at Weymouth as I was really pleased with his performance that night and it will have given him the boost in confidence that he so desperately needs."

The Cobras have called in former Buccaneer Jerran Hart as a guest for injured Jamie Smith whilst Kyle Hughes will be absent as he will be riding for Rye's Premier League outfit on the same day and with rider replacement covering for him it could just leave the Cobras a little bit exposed. The Buccaneers have a change at reserve for Saturday with James Sarjeant standing in for John Resch.

Rye House (from): J.Hart, K.Hughes R/R, L.Strudwick, D.Mason, B.Morley, S.Hazelden, T.Stokes
Bournemouth(from): J.Brundle, K.Mason, M.Baseby, K.Howarth, D.Halsey, A.Baseby, J.Sarjeant

Bournemouth are expected to go with James Brundle and Kyle Howarth as their selection for the NL pairs event which takes place at Newport on 7th August. The meeting will have a 2.30pm start and will feature 2 groups of 5 teams racing over 10 heats per group and then a sudden-death final. The Buccaneers have been drawn in the same group as Dudley, Isle of Wight, Newport and Plymouth, with Buxton, King's Lynn, Mildenhall, Scunthorpe and Weymouth forming the second group.
 

FIRST AWAY WIN FOR BUCCANEERS
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Saturday 17th July 2010
Bournemouth Buccaneers kept their push for a play-off place alive with a slender win over Dorset neighbours Weymouth at the Wessex Stadium. The 46-44 win for the Wimborne Road moved them to within 6 points of 4th placed Buxton with a match in hand and the result pleased team boss Garry May. "We came here tonight needing a win at the very least" said May, adding, "Ideally we were after all four points but I will take the 3. It was a close run thing and had we not dropped some points when in scoring positions we could have come away with the lot. Our guest Jon Armstrong rode well for us. He was unlucky in the first ride when he pulled up when well positioned but his heat 15 efforts were valuable. He rode really well to keep Bekker out in that one and ensure we won the meeting."

Bournemouth broke the four heat dead-lock when Armstrong and Halsey combined for a 5-1 and preciously held on to their advantage although the Wildcats did trim it by half to make it a grandstand finish with just two points separating the sides. The defeat leaves Weymouth rooted at the bottom of the National Development league table with just one win in whilst Bournemouth levelled with Dudley on 19 points.

Scorers:
Weymouth 44 - B.Bekker 11+1, J.Cockle 9+1, G.Cottham 9, T.Brown 6+1, L.Chessell 5+1, R.Andrews 4+1, rider replacement operated for T.Day
Bournemouth 46 - J.Armstrong 10+1, M.Baseby 8+1, A.Baseby 8, D.Halsey 7+3, K.Howarth 7, K.Mason 5+2, J.Resch 1
 

UNDER 18 OPPORTUNITY FOR KYLE AND JOHN
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Friday 16th July 2010
Kyle Howarth and John Resch are both included in British U18 Championship at Somerset on July 30th, British U21 coach Neil Vatcher has confirmed. "This will be a big meeting for both Buccaneers" Vatcher said, "and it would be great if they could bring the club some individual success. Graham Reeve, Phil Morris and myself are working hard to provide opportunities for the British riders of the future and the U18 championship will be a good gauge and a way for these youngsters to experience the test of an individual championship. It promises to be a good meeting up at Somerset and hopefully Kyle and John will have plenty of backing on the terraces that night."
 

WEYMOUTH TRIP IS A MUST WIN
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Thursday 15th July 2010
Bournemouth Buccaneers' team manager Garry May has described Friday night's visit to neighbours Weymouth as 'a must win if we are to be in with a chance of reaching the play-offs'. A Bournemouth 'Select' side have already won at the Wessex Stadium this season, the only away success that May has tasted this campaign but only Daniel Halsey, Karl Mason and Aaron Baseby from Friday night's team were on duty on that occasion.

"We have only picked up away league points from one meeting so far this season, our draw at Scunthorpe" said May "and we are in danger of losing touch with the top four if we don't start putting some more league points against our name. We don't have our new boy James Brundle on Friday but I think Jon Armstrong, who has agreed to guest for us, can do a good job down there and its a track which shouldn't really cause our lads too much concern. Weymouth haven't been invincible around the Wessex Raceway this year, they have only won once in four league matches. We want to make that once in five."

Teams
Weymouth - B.Bekker, R/R for T.Day, T.Brown, G.Cottham, J.Cockle, R.Andrews, L.Chessell
Bournemouth - J.Armstrong, D.Halsey, K.Mason, K.Howarth, M.Baseby, A.Baseby, J.Resch

UNDER 18s COME TO THE OAK TREE ARENA
By Somerset Speedway ~ Tuesday 13th July 2010
The Oak Tree Arena, home of the Somerset Rebels, has had its reputation as one of Britain’s foremost speedway tracks further enhanced with the news that the venue had been selected to stage the Final of the British Under-18 Speedway Championship on Friday 30th July.

“What with the Oak Tree Arena hosting the Premier League Pairs Championship last Friday for a fourth successive year, it is yet another feather in our cap to be awarded a meeting as  prestigious as the British Under-18 Final,” said Somerset co-promoter Debbie Hancock.

The Championship has been seen as an excellent stepping stone for up and coming British speedway talent and has been won in the past by such riders as current Grand Prix rider Tai Woffinden,  Great Britain internationals Daniel King and Lewis Bridger as well as William Lawson and current title holder, Jerran Hart.
 

KING'S LYNN PROCEED TO NEXT ROUND
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Thursday 8th July 2010
Despite a highly impressive debut performance from James Brundle the Bournemouth Buccaneers just couldn't quite claw back the full 13 points that they lost by in the first leg of this cup tie, losing 89-92 on aggregate to the King's Lynn Young Stars.

Those 'starlets' proved to be strongly resistant to the Buccaneers' battling efforts, the visitors making the better starts for most of the night, the home side though, particularly through Mark Baseby making some telling passes to try and defend their cup honours from last season. Baseby's brother had a difficult night, spinning off twice but also battling for second places in two of his other rides, whilst Kyle Howarth also had an eventful night, switching bikes and also feeling the force of the safety barrier in one ride. But it was debutant Brundle that really caught the eye and he only dropped points in the final heat of the night when the Buccaneers needed maximum return through him and Daniel Halsey, who had been creating some good openings for himself throughout.

Brundle and Halsey had gotten Bournemouth off to the perfect start with a 5-1 over guest Jake Anderson and Scott Campos but then the resilience of the Stars began to bite and the Buccaneers found it difficult to eradicate any more of the 13 point first leg deficit, for whenever they claimed a further heat gain the visitors instantly retaliated. A magnificent effort from Mark Baseby in heat 13 for a 5-1 that reduced the aggregate gap to 3 points gave the cup holders some hope, although had the Stars invoked the tactical option in heat 14, as they trailed on the night by 10, then they could have wrapped the tie up even earlier. Instead it went to the wire but with Anderson making the best of the starts the Buccaneers' hopes of a the 'Great Escape' rapidly faded.

Bournemouth 50 (89) J.Brundle 13+1, D.Halsey 10+2, M.Baseby 8+1, K.Howarth 7, A.Baseby 5+1, K.Mason 5, J.Resch 2+2

King's Lynn 40 (92) J.Anderson 10, A.Lowe 8+2, J.Knight 8, D.Mallett 6+1, C.McDade 5, S.Campos 2, L.Kerr 1
 

ARMSTRONG STARS AS FEN TIGERS WIN AGAIN
By Mildenhall Speedway ~ Tuesday 6th July 2010
Mildenhall legend Jon Armstrong showed the fans that he still knows the quickest way around West Row with a blistering four rides dropping only one point to visiting star Danny Warwick in an eleven point haul. The “Mighty Midget” such a folk hero to Mildenhall folk produced his party piece in his second ride powering from third to first in a couple of laps blasting past Islander and former Fen Tiger Ben Hopwood in Heat 6.

Armstrong said “I love riding here and it was great to get the guest booking and after today I may get a few more, my form has just clicked over the past couple of weeks and I have just been flying lately.”

It was not just Armstrong however hitting double figures as Luke Priest turned in his best performance of the season and with Captain Barrie Evans impressive with a big paid 14 score the result was never in doubt but the Islanders kept the home team honest with Warwick and Hopwood always in the thick of the action. Mildenhall are next in action at Buxton on Sunday 18th July and their next home fixture is against the same opponents on August 1st.

Scorers
Mildenhall Art and Stitch Fen Tigers 55 – Armstrong 11 (4 rides) Wright 4+1 (4) Priest 11 +1 (5) Jacobs 4 (4) Evans 13+1 (5) Rayson 7+1 (4) Laurence 5+1 (4)

Iow  40 – Scarboro 3 (4) Johnson 3+1 (5) Warwick 13(6) Hopwood 12 (6) Felton 5+2 (5) Hill 4(4)
 

BUCCANEERS NEED TO CLAW BACK 13
By Bournemouth Speedway ~ Tuesday 6th July 2010
In a week that culminates with the biggest meeting in the British Speedway calendar - the FIM British Grand Prix round in Cardiff - centre-stage at Wimborne Road this week belongs to the Bournemouth Castle Cover/Wessex Marine Buccaneers who face a stern test if they are to maintain their interest in the National Development League Knockout Cup.

The current holders will have to overcome a 13 point deficit from the first leg as the welcome the King's Lynn Young Stars to the Dorset venue on Thursday night (July 8th) and team manager Garry May is hoping that the desire to retain the silverware the club won last year will reign in the current crop of Buccaneers.

"Winning the cup last year as part of the double was a great achievement and sensation for us" said May, "and whilst we have a different bunch of lads with us this time around I will be working hard trying to convince them that there is no better feeling than to hold a trophy aloft at the end of season. I believe that the team we have this year are capable of doing just that, we just need to see a bit more self-belief in some of them and keep battling from heat 1 right through to heat 15."

"We have a new boy in the side for Thursday with James Brundle coming in to replace Chris Mills and hopefully we can use this as a launching pad for the rest of our season. It is no secret that we are losing ground on the league's pace-setters and whilst I believe that we can certainly make the play-offs a good cup run will be important for the club."

"Pulling back 13 points is a tough call, it becomes a bit tricky with the tactical options and that means it is even more important we get off to a good start and boost the confidence levels. It promises to be a really difficult battle but hopefully the crowd will get behind us and play their part. My job now is to get the riders in the right frame of mind and instill the belief in them that on their day they can beat anyone in this league."
