Red Flag 454 Posted August 24, 2016 Where will his best bikes be?? Naive in the extreme 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted August 24, 2016 A fantastic offer from the promotion that more often than not get pelters on here so credit where credit is due. Hope the local paper and radio stations spread the word also. Added to the fact that KK is available and Scott is always a popular visitor to Brandon I think and hope it's a good attendance, given the fact we hear practice is completely different to race day it does surprise me Bombers not gone for earning a few extra pennies than practice. It maybe logistics that have forced him if his bikes are based here and he travels by land though so totally understandable if so. We should have too much to be troubled and Nicholls is second heat leader these days so may struggle at number 1. Win by 10 at least Yep usually goes by road and I'm not sure he will have equipment out there as he's hardly ridden in Poland this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Voice Of Reason 2,124 Posted August 24, 2016 Obviously gutted.......as Lakeside even nicking a point is going to be extremely difficult now. However, a tremendous gesture by Krzysztof. At a time when many GP 'stars' (quite rightly) get vilified for turning their back on British Speedway, it's encouraging to see that there are a few of the guys that recognise the meaning of the term - loyalty. And how nice that we'll be served up a FULL evening of Speedway AND at a realistic admission price. If we get the usual 70's/80's songs playing, it will seem like we're all in a retro time warp! Nothing wrong with that in my book. Looking forward to my visit to Brandon on Friday; even more so given that it will not be my last. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Had a couple of friends who rarely attend say they are hoping to come tomorrow evening as they think its value for money. They are bringing their kids along too, they didn't realise u16 were now free. I think there is a lesson there to get the message out better next season.

Robbobee 144 Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Looking forward to this meeting .... great commitment from KK and I am sure Bomber would have been there if it were at all possible / logistical so he is excused ! CH r/r means KK, DK, JG and ANO from Bates, Woryna and Sarjeant so not too shabby either although not as strong as Bomber obviously. Will be a good meeting with Hammers really needing to win also to keep their play-off hopes alive ... Think Bees will shade it though 48-42 ish unless Bates rides like he did last time in which case we stick 50+ on the board !! Will miss seeing AJ around Brandon though ....

abbo 229 Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Im sure if he didn't want to be there he wouldn't be, So fully expect him to give it his all and score well. I wonder if KKs number 1 fan will acknowledge his commitment?

foreverblue 6,089 Posted August 26, 2016 Assuming lakeside win both their remaining home meetings they need a minimum of 3 points from their remaining two away meetings to catch Belle Vue, anything less and The Aces have achieved the target of qualifying for the cup. I was happy to support Coventry when they needed it to save their track now I'm supporting them again to see The Aces take a step closer to qualification and a successful first season at the National Speedway Stadium. Can't see Lakeside getting anything on the road. I think Swindon will make it especially with the form of Tungate. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,089 Posted August 26, 2016 Hope you're right but until it's mathematically certain we've qualified for the cup our most sussessful season for years counts for nothing. It would take a very strange set of results for Belle Vue not to qualify but obviously hope your poor run continues a little bit longer. With the revised teams for this meeting can't see how Lakeside can get anything from it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
