Why would anyone hate the world number one? Pedersen only rode as you would expect the best rider in the world to, unlike the other no hopers who bottled it. He had nothing to prove so why not let Crump have his moment of glory

Checked Tele-text tonight and it said over 3000 there, although it was announced talking to Sean at the start of the introductions last night that there was only 2500ish.

 

The meeting was being filmed because they had to re-announce the heat 2 line-up because of a power failure, just so they could edit the tape and re-order it so it fits.

 

If anyone hears when this is available and what price it's going for, please PM or post and let me know as I will need about 3 copies for people who couldn't get there (1 of which is a speedway rider who was gutted as he was busy looking after his girlfriend who was ill all last week and more than likely most of this week too!)

 

There seemed a lot more Scorpions there than Tigers to start with I must say. Everywhere you looked there was someone in a Scorpions jacket! Very impressed with the turn-out in the end though.

 

And a final comment before I go and collapse into bed, is a thanks to Sean for getting champagne in my hair after I had washed it especially that morning! I can still smell it today! Oh well! Great night and a great final. Well done to all the lads and lasses who put in the had work to get everything organised and Well done and congratulations to Sean on 20 years of being an absolute star!

Come on Machin, take us Elite, that was fantastic and if we could see that week in week out it would be amazing. A handful of riders were disappointing but that was made up for by riders such as Adams, Crump, Nicholls, Pedersen etc who did nothing but entertain all night. The first 4 races were basically follow the leader stuff, but as the track got better as the meeting went on it produced excellent racing. The best race was by far when Nicki passed Adams, with Leigh then returning the favour giving him a little shove later on. Also, heat 14, Sheffield fans round where I was going mad cheering for Legault, who was impressive on Sunday and never off the pace. Morten Risager although giving a disappointing points tally was never too far behind and was good to say he's never seen the track before. Freddie Lindgren was also really good as was Ulamek who was unlucky with 2 engine failures after what seemed to be an impressive start. The semi final was another good race with all 4 riders trying, with Compton and Stead, trying to find ways to get into the final. I thought Stead was unlucky not to make the final as he had a good meeting scoring against riders who are World Class, however the best 2 riders in the race got through which is more or less how it should be. The final was excellent also, with the man who deserved it taking the win. Well done Crump, and all the other riders who gave an excellent show. Many many thanks to Sean for giving us this brilliant meeting, and also the DVD, which as many will agree is very good, and although not very long has some good laughs in it, also a few good races with Sean going back a few years.

Who is the world number 1 ????

Rickardsson...

This guy really has absolutely no idea what he's on about. Maybe aliens took him away for scientific testing many moons ago when NP was actually World no.1...? Or is that just creating an excuse for him being stupid?!

Sean's meeting was indeed a cracker and i wholeheartedly agree with Tigerblues opinion that Sheff. should go elite.Last week was my first visit since the mid 80's(a bank holiday 1985 think it was,victory for BV) and it took me back to racing how it is meant to be,i even got a lump of shale in the eye which was cool. .However there was a down side,being charged an extortionate £2 for a small tray of chips for the kids,and to add insult to injury £1 for a can of coke,well at least Dick Turpin had the decency to wear a mask .
