<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

oh,no doubt Paulco,on a five average he would be ideal as a third heatleader,however we need another 2 heatleaders on a decent average to enable us to do it.

more chance of Britney turning up for the Christmas dinner my wife cooked for her

come to think of it,how would stoney and Britney get on if they were both sectioned in the same hospital?

Just got in, another great afternoon. Bomber was class again on at times a tricky track. Hope Ashworth and Bridger are both ok.

[Pinstripe 0]

Not a bad meeting. Harris in a class of his own.

 

Werner was very impressive and was out to prove a point quite clearly. Not sure what he would be like as a Wasp, rumours were going round that he has been offered a contract.

 

Two Poles were useless. Cant decide which was worse. Mroz looked alot "larger" than he did last time over, and the other one didnt have a clue how to ride the track. At least Rajkowski knew how to ride the track in last years classic. This Pole had no idea and looked awful. Really hope we touch neither of them for next year.

 

Nasty crash with Bridger and Ashworth too. Hope both sustained no injuries.

 

And finally, where was Shadders? The big man was nowhere to be seen and despite walking around the stadium a few times, he was not spotted. And he calls me the keyboard warrior? Ho ho ho.

Very entertaing meeting,a lot of credit must go to the Newport promotion ,Tim Stone and his staff for putting this on . Its begs the question why other clubs dont do it ? There were obviously many Coventry fans there but also a coach of Brummies ( who gave Adam Roynon great support ) and a few Wolves and Cradley ,makes you think if a Midland club did this what sort of interest it would generate . Bomber was a worthy winner but thanks to all the riders who gave 100%

Any news on the two injured lads would be appreciated .

Thanks to Iffoid for the results and thanks everyone for joining in today.

Hope everyone has a good season, though I would prefer it if Buxton got a bit further up the table this year.

 

Roll on March - or April in our case

[Shadders 4,134]

Not a bad meeting. Harris in a class of his own.

 

Werner was very impressive and was out to prove a point quite clearly. Not sure what

 

And finally, where was Shadders? The big man was nowhere to be seen and despite walking around the stadium a few times, he was not spotted. And he calls me the keyboard warrior? Ho ho ho.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I was in the main stand looking after my wheelchair bound daughter, just like I said I would be. You're memory must be going with all that lager. Anyway, you were spotted by my spies who tell me you hardly moved from your spot!!

You obviously couldn't afford the £1 extra it would have cost to come over our side.

I'll be on the back straight when Rye come to town if you're that desperate to meet me, I'm not bothered either way. I've kept all the PM's you've sent me if you want reminding who's so desperate to meet who.

Please show me a quote where I've called you a keyboard warrior

 

Anyway, on to more important things than arguing with a half wit. Apart from the first heat it was a pretty tame affair on a tricky surface. There were one or two hard first turns, but apart from that pretty pedestrian.

Well deserved win by Bomber and a terrific performance from Brent. The two new Poles were pretty dire, Tim Stone will have probably signed em both up by now.

[Sandie 53]

Dietbowers - I didnt think much of our 4th date!!!

[colincooke 0]

Another good show from most of the 12. Good to feel "the buzz" again.

Hope Lewis & Ricky are ok.

Sandie, you were just a little to keen to get away, if you had hung around for an extra 5 minutes, you could have met Dietbowers.
