THE DEAN MACHINE

As I drove out of the gates last night, it really hit home, I was born within a mile of Monmore Green, my family brought me up on the terraces at Monmore Green, I raced my first laps of my career at Monmore Green, I met my Mrs on the terraces of Monmore Green, I saw my all time hero Sam Ermolenko at Monmore Green and I’ve met 1000s of people who I call friends at Monmore Green, I hope a new piece of land can be found for a new track but it will never be Monmore Green, a million memories have just been crushed by corporate greed (again) for me last night the heart of Wolverhampton as a city stopped beating and it hurts

It’s your son or grandson, I brought the bike off you

Cradley’s biggest problem is an obvious one, the lack of land available in the Cradley /Dudley area, I have seen first hand the efforts to secure some land to put a track but you would be surprised how much land is owned by the church and they are not interested in putting a speedway track on any of it, there has been a few glimmers of hope over the last year or so but they have ultimately come to nothing but the search goes on, hopefully one site will be the breakthrough, the will is there

Maybe Charles and Eddie song “would I lie to you “ would be more appropriate?

Why is it shocking ? How long have you been around speedway ? The bspl and it’s members dont give a damn about fans, the sport in this country is where it is because of crap like this, fans are the be all of the sport and are treated like dog dirt, the way the Swindon fans have been treated since they closed is disgusting

Congratulations Lublin, well deserved commiserations to gorzow you gave them a hell of a run, zmarzlik yet again a master class of speedway, fully enjoyed the meeting

Vaculik engine failure cost gorzow but gorzow were a 2 man team

Not going to happen in a million years but would be quite the scene if gorzow got a 5-0 now

Lublin’s to lose now

He laid it down cause he lost half the spokes in his front wheel, it was going to collapse

That a tough one, neither at fault but race had to be stopped

Lublin should walk this race but but but

How zmarzlik goes into a corner that fast and tight and still manages to turn is amazing, such talent on a bike

That’s cruel

Game on for Lublin, gorzow need points from Wozniak or Hanson and neither has look that competitive

I think cerniak deliberately put that down to get a rerun as he was last but the form he is in especially at Lublin he would of passed the gorzow reserves

Think it’s time for the dirt deflector to be sent to the retirement home, the sport never needed it

The atmosphere is amazing

If drabik turns up Lublin have a chance

I took a look at the problem bends, they are very narrow at the old pits end, 1st and 2nd are as they used to be

Congratulations dan bewley ,noticed jacko there (new job for next year)?

I think it should be top 3 qualify for next year then next 9 go into GP challenge day after last GP round with the 7 qualifiers for challenge, the GP need to be more cut throat, it’s becoming stale with too many riders just outside the title contenders in a comfort zone knowing they will get a wild card

Cause you are told your truth, you’re an intelligent man, try thinking for yourself and stop being told what to think

The wholeheartedly majority are told it’s fully justified

Speedway has had this problem for a few years now even with mitas and before that Barum, I can remember tyres down to the skin back in the early 2000 with whole knobbles being ripped off after 2 rides, basso’s tyre looked worse cause he carried on riding with a flat tyre,,it doesn’t matter what tyre manufacturer you use, they will all disintegrate when you do burnouts for 60 seconds which is what is happening
