Kent Kings come to Armadale this Friday in a Championship fixture, the first time we've ever hosted the Kings who have moved into our league this season. Star Kings are Scott Nicholls (perhaps the best visiting rider over the last few seasons) plus former GP rider Troy Batchelor, Paul Starke and popular ex-Monarch Cameron Heeps.

What The Fork Monarchs fans can win four VIP hospitality tickets to this Friday's match against Kent Kings thanks to Events Scotland, one of the Club's Senior Partners. Read on to find out how to enter.

Edinburgh like to be involved in the British Youth Championship and staged the fourth leg of the 2021 event this afternoon, a very enjoyable afternoon of speedway and a chance to see the riders coming through on the British Speedway scene.

The What the Fork Monarchs squeezed home by 47-42 tonight against Plymouth, who had led all the way from heat 1 and unluckily lost Bjarne Pedersen in a heat 13 crash. Monarchs took the lead in heat 14 and finished with a 5-1 from Sam Masters and Josh Pickering to put a bit of a gloss on the scoreline.

Willam Lawson returns to the team following a negative covid test, meaning both teams are at full strength - including Plymouth's top two, Jason Crump and Bjarne Pedersen. Tap here for the full line-ups!

Like an oasis amidst a desert of postponements, Edinburgh's first ever visit to Kent Kings' Central Park Stadium on Tuesday yielded another valuable point in their quest for a play-off slot. Unfortunately, though, the Monarchs' joy was tempered slightly by below-par performances on the night by certain key riders and the feeling that it was more a case of two points dropped than the solitary bonus one gained.
