Many thanks.....Small point though , Great Britain is spelt wrongly !

Its here ---i think

I cant see how it can continue . Just for instance sake , what if 2 riders from each team achieved an average of over 8 this season , does that then mean 10 of the leagues best riders cant compete in the Elite League the following season ? . The over 8 rule will be scrapped , we need as many of the best riders over here in the league .

Thats last place sorted then

Good ! i've invested a few quid on the Poole Pair !

Just fishing for a bit of info really , but while clearing out some of my dads gear i came across a 1948 edition of Stenners Speedway Annual . I've never of this before , and wondered if some of u fellows can shed a bit of light on it . Its about the same size as a paperback book and crammed with more statistics and reviews than u can shake a stick at , plus loads of pics . One article i'm about to read is an interview with Vic Duggan , by Charles Ochiltree (ran Coventry for years didnt he ?) .Can anyone shed any light on the Stenners Annuals , how many editions , length of run etc ? Any help would be appreciated .

Thanks for the info guys. If anyones interested in having it when i've read it (no charge) , leave forwarding addy details in a message to me on here and i'll post it on , else it will only end up in a box in the loft !!!

I dont know why you all keep biting.............He's done some good fishing here , as the amount of pages testify

I should take that as a plus point really

Yes of course , i think ur missing the point that the elite league , or any league for that matter is a team compo , whereas the GP is purely an individual event . A rider , theoretically , if he so wished , could ride in only the GP's , and if he was the winner at the end of the series , he would be World Champion .

I agree with the sentiments above , i mentioned many moons ago he should have had some recognition in the form of am MBE , OBE or the like for services to the sport . A man who has devoted his whole life to speedway .

Very subtle ! Not thinking of joining the fast freddie fan club then lol ??

I have found it here

Sky supports and sponsors speedway , thats the reason i have it , plus it shows the majority of the live footy matches and most other top sporting events , Sky puts its money where its mouth is to bring us these sports , so instead of whinging you know what to subscribe to instead of trying to go to cheaper options surely ???

It always rains at Vojens , should have held the final at Kings Lynn

So , by your reckoning , the Millenium Stadium should not host a GP , they dont have any team at all riding there . Or is it because they have good facilities and can provide a good racing strip ? I think you're slightly hoisting yourself by your own petard . If any stadium is good enough and provides good racing , i dont care what level the hosts team rides at .

Great meeting , and congrats to Holder . I thought the crowd was way down on previous years , and the top tier on start/finish line was nearly empty from where i was seated on the third bend .

Good news by the sounds of things .

Agreed. Here comes another dozen or so pages of gloating , real speedway fans ? As for the crap about him never being in control , never heard such crap in my life , he's one of the most talented riders out there . No-one likes seeing any rider get hurt , so those that wanna post bile carry on so we can all laugh at your sad attitude . Rant over .

She could if she asked me nicely.............

Anyone know what the weather is gonna like for tonight ?

I really dunno why they ever bother having a rider/ref hotline , ever seen a ref change his/her mind when a rider challenges a decision ??

Best u change your sig then . If i was French , i'd consider it racist , as you proved above

You really have a chip on your shoulder . Whats racist about critising a ref who in many peoples eyes made a decision that favoured his fellow countryman ?

If the move is pulled off with no contact , yes , But surely u dont think AJ bailed out on purpose ? The Sky rear veiw replay showed AJ having his leg taken away . Some u win , some u lose . Gollob got lucky IMHO
