Is this a first: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . A topic that hasn't been taken over by Pirates!! (I wonder why?) -

Sounds very strange to invite him, in the first place, then. -

Big Meeting At Poole
dj350z replied to Saint Rob's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
I for one, don't want to see the meeting rained-off, but to suggest that a one-off meeting like this provides the answers to all speedways problems, is pushing it a bit far. If anything, the money spent on attending an expensive meeting like this could have an adverse effect on domestic meetings. -
I remember going to this meeting as a Cov supporter and I think it was a double-header and vividly remember not being able to see very well due to the size of the crowd that night. I have heard there were about 25,000 people there for that meeting, is that correct? It seems to be a lot for the size of the stadium. Can anyone confirm the actual attendance figures. Cheers Dave.

Thanks for the replies. Certainly felt like 20,000, but didn't think you could get that many in there!! Those were the days. Imagine getting that attendance now. Anyone know how many was at last years play-off final at Brandon?

It's going to be such a resounding success, that I expect Poole to run this every year!!! -

Just realised, shouldn't this thread be in Individual Events and not Elite League. Bit late now, I know! -

He's only hostile if you ask the wrong question!!! -
Excellent! Thanks Kev, just what I am looking for. I was confusing Stoke with Crewe. Cheers.

Does anyone have any info on Stuart Cope, who he rode for and when. I believe that he rode a few meetings for Coventry in the 70's, and he also rode quite sucessfully for Boston and I think Stoke, in the National League. Thanks.

Big Meeting At Poole

Congratulations to the Poole promotion for arranging this exciting and bold meeting. I really hope it is a great success for Poole and speedway in general. I think there is no doubt it will generate a lot of media interest and this can only be good for the sport. I can't understand the knockers on here - if you don't agree - don't go! There will be enough that will want to attend. One question I do have. How was the line-up decided? Well done again to M&M. -
Why, what happened to him?

World Cup At Coventry
dj350z replied to Gemini's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Good post. I can accept fans supporting a nation because their favourite club rider is foreign, but I can't accept is the way some British fans deride the British riders. You would not see the Aussies or Yanks doing that - they would be totally patriotic. -

Does anyone know how much the riders will be earning for riding in the WTC? Is it dictated by the country's controlling body or is it agreed across the board? -

Were they Cornish pasties?!! -
Thanks for all the info - have just ordered it. Need to get a Sky recording now.
-
Oh, cheers. Thanks for that. Looks like I will be ordering one then!!
-
Does anyone know if the DVD available by pre-order from Speedwayworld.tv will be the coverage from Sky? I assume it will be.

Wow, what a fantatstic night down in Cardiff. Bomber was absolutley awesome. He was the only rider on the track who was able to come from behind like he did and race. No just going past riders but the way he changed his line every lap if necessary to gain on his opponents. Definatley the rider of the night and thoroughly deserved it. Don't agree about his atrocious gating. He actually made at least 2 starts and when he didn't, he wasn't that far behind anyway. That's a massive improvement for him!! And don't forget we are talking about very fast gaters in the GP's. Congratulations Chris.
