On form, he's a very good rider (probably better than Karlsson), but in the last five years how many complete seasons has he ridden? That must be a consideration when anyone contemplates team changes. Anyway, good luck to him, hopefully he'll have a trouble free run now and make the hoped for transition to international class rider that he's been so close to in the past.

But Sandhu claims to have other offers on the table, what plans are they likely to have?

What spoilt it for me was Robson insisting he was being treated unfairly and every time you could plainly see him drop the clutch before the tapes moved.

I agree, the woman on Sky asks the daftest and often unanswerable questions. Coverage was good but the track preparation was a disgrace, you would think they would have learned by now.

They are just enthusiastic beginners.

If they had, Bernt Persson would still be paying the fines.

Redcar will certainly be weakened, Wilkinson falls off at least once a meeting.

Where's your picture? Have you shaved the beard off or something?

Somerset!......................It's a county!

Eh?

Glasgow.........Oh dear!

Speedway is simply a circus act, the majority of the public will never take it seriously when you have guests and tactical rides. Besides that, It's totally boring 99% of the time.

There are a few teams with matches in hand over Leicester.

No Micky Dyer?

I don't agree that he put it down to avoid that, he wasn't that near.

The referee couldn't fine him when he was suspended several days before the event. Starke let himself down and brought the sport into disrepute, in the full glare of the cameras. We had enough of that in the past with newspaper exposures....No wonder the sport isn't taken seriously.

Me too! I wish SKY would get rid of that dim bird who hangs out in the pits and seems to be trying to win a contest for asking the most stupid questions imaginable.

I thought SKY were sacking it anyway?

Exactly! I have supported him in the past when he has come on here asking for PL chances. There must have been some new people at Berwick or watching on TV, how do you explain that "oh if you're behind you cheat to try and get back"?

You were absolutely right, Glasgow poor and Leicester better than expected.

No chance.

Why would the two be connected? It IS what kids do these days, It's what I did in my teens and I'm now a pensioner, but I always observe the national anthem and stand up and remove my cap.

Do people watch trials?

I don't think the organisers actually get to pick the wildcard, even though it has been the top placed none GP rider in the past. I would hold it at the new Belle Vue track when it's available. You have to consider possible TV coverage when picking a date and time. You also have to hold it at a venue that actually wants to hold it.
