  1. at this moment in time the 2012 elite league has no grand prix riders named in any of the teams. who are the 7 and which teams are they riding for next season. just being pernickity lol
  2. now i am confused.if he is riding for 2 or 3 clubs in the same meeting when he is racing against himself how are we supposed to know which club he is representing in those particular races. is it decided that if he beats himself then he is a poole rider but if he finishes behind himself is he then representing panthers or bees. also how many times can he be excluded in any one heat.
  3. could the russian ambassador not just have got a bike and took part. at least he wouldnt have 2 exclusions
  4. does every athlete competing at the olympics next year need a visa and what about family friends and spectators. [ obviously this doesnt apply to eu members] somebody is going to be really busy
  5. if you had read what i wrote, you wouldnt have written this. i said at the start. due to noise i misheard the announcer and thought he said scotty was wearing white so put him at 3 in my program, hence all the scribbling out. at some point you do need to know the draw to be able to fill in the rider order, so before you try to act all clever with your "SIMPLES" attitude read what people actually write. and to the people who mentioned that they got given a leaflet with the draw, unfortunately we werent given this, which if we were would have helped immensely
  6. impartial and rob, i appreciate your answers but due to work i didnt have time to check the draw on friday and didnt see the pre meeting screening. if they had pot the names up at the start of proceedings then i and possibly others would have been more aware. im not saying its IMGs fault i made mistakes but a visual as well as verbal may have helped
  7. some of us had a little difficulty filling in the programmws with riders at the start.this was done to too reasons. 1 we didnt know the draw and 2 as announcer was reading out the riders at start of heats 1-4 he didnt do them in 1,2,3,4 order and with the noise we misheard a couple hence scribbling out in programme. could they not have used the large screens and shown the riding positions as per the draw. this would have helped immensely
  8. cant be bothered lol to go back and check who posted the 23rd june but kudos to him/her anyway as i also checked hotel prices and premier inns rates are a bit higher for that weekend . cwmbran where we stayed is actually slightly dearer than we paid for this weekend. date wont be announced until IMG have booked all their rooms. you heard it here second lol
  9. not sure starman but i interpret the comment as hope the money gives the daughter a good education because she wont inherit intelligence thriugh steves genes. not my opinion just how i interpret the post
  10. as speedway points are divided up mathematically it is likely that the amount of 9 point [or thereabouts] at the end of a season would be about the same as the number of teams, in the same way as the amount that finish on 4 or less would be about 2 per team. thats based on the 7 who actually finish for each team. look at the prem. without looking i would bet there are about the same 8.5+ riders as there were teams in the league
  11. page 94 summary. same load of crap as previous 93 pages, some say black and some white and no-one says there is a grey. no one has a clue what is going on and yet we have 94 pages of drivel.
  12. have you taken into account that one or both may have deliberately reduced the number of posts made over the last few days in order to get their average posts per day down. increasing their posts per day might mean they cant get a forum place next season. please god lets get them posting
  13. maybe what he was thinking and yes i am surmising is that he had ideas to put into action which would reduce the amount which was being lost and due to the new regulations he estimates that his costs /losses will increase. the 140.000 could be a bit irrelevant in that case. using your scenario, you may have an idea that would mean you pay less than 50 quid which the gym may be prepared to accept but then a different member comes up with a plan that means you pay 60 quid how would you then feel
  14. and where in that statement does he say anything like " i cannot afford elite league speedway". my wording may not have been 100% accurate but its a hell of a lot closer than not affording it
