The difference is all the other riders proberly tried to win it,Emil not entering is something he will surely regret in time to come

Thanks Gemini I saw you on the car park at the rained off meeting the other week,I was going to come over to say hello but got sidetracked then you disappeared.proberly walking the dogs!the British weathers a nightmare

great!!!!!! im in the lake district next weekend aaaaaaaggghhh

putting aside the rights and wrongs does anyone think bomber has a chance

I'm gonna go and cheer the brummies on

At rye house on Saturday despite the rain they still came out to those magnificent men in there flying machines.at which about 8 people came strolling out talking and were about as interested in marching as the crowd was in watching

In my youth I went down the same path as you,I could ride bikes so thought I'd buy a jawa as good as I could afford thinking the better the bike the better I'd be.unfortunately the bike was way better than me!after a fair bit of practice at an unofficial track ( there was a fair few in the seventies) I managed to wreck the bike and get myself a few bruises! It ended my thoughts on becoming a rider and cost a fair amount of financial trouble including wrecking my dads car! What I'm getting at is I wish I'd have attended training schools and got the hang of things first and gathered some experience and knowledge off people in the know.not sure if this is any help thought it might be useful to you

Speedway season ends in farce.this could never happen! Or could it?

The crowd figures at perry Barr seem lower than at monmore to me.hard to believe but I think the cradley fans got to accept that monmore was like a second home.not sure we feel the same about perry Barr.but better than nothing I suppose.I do think we have run our course in the nl but moving ups a big financial risk

It might be my memory playing up but I'm sure at cradley in the 70s he's handlebars snapped in one race but he managed to finish somehow

Spot on with the amount of cradley fans shads.I reckon there was about 30 of us where has the first couple of years we were back there was well into 3 figures.same at home meetings tho.no shock it was called off after 11 heats,I enjoyed what we saw but British weathers a nightmare for speedway.well done rye tho well deserved.we certainly seem to be lacking something this year

Fair enough if the delays are unavoidable there's not a lot you can do

I wasn't there so should not comment and riders health always come first obviously.to anyone who was there did the first meeting get run as quickly as it should have?if not then I'd say that's why fans may feel hard done to.again I wasn't there , just wondering if there was the usual as if no one had any urgency getting the meetings run

I don't think the problem is that the bikes are that much quicker speed wise but I think they react quicker if that makes sense giving the riders very little time to react themselves

Bikes are to powerful I don't think anyone can deny that,in days gone by the rider decided what the bike did but now it's almost as if the rider has to react after the bike makes it's own move.the injuries today would be even worse without the air fences so that alone proves the bikes are to powerful.just imagine the injuries without the air fences

Me and my lot are wondering why we bother,at least they gave us our money back.I was told at about 5.15 that the ref had just done a track inspection and decided it was unfit for racing.surely this should have been done earlier.it must have been pretty obvious if racing was possible before 5.15

They ain't gonna find one!

First time I've seen ward in the flesh for a while but he really is at a different level.there should never be different rules for riders but I hope he's back in the gps next year.might not be right in a way but he is special Track looked good to me

But don't you think without the wc there will be something missing in his career.I'm sure in years to come he will look back and regret his decision

Emil can win as many secs as he likes but without a wc against he's name he won't be remembered as a great

I'm doing pub Monday Somerset Tuesday Poole Wednesday Swindon Thursday kings Lynn Friday pub Saturday .I reckon mines better with the two pub visits.lol

Speedway should be advertised as a nasty dangerous sport with danger and thrills paramount.not a friendly happy product .those days have long gone

obviously im a fan of greg but imagine if this had been the other way round. I reckon nicki would have got a 3 month ban!!!!!!!

There my best features gemini

I know there will be a logical answer to this but why didn't they just build the houses where the new stadium is going and then leave the track as it is and just knock the stadium down around it and build a new stadium around the old track because swindons track is generally ok! I realise I'm proberly being thick but seems simpler to me
