  1. The ref spoiled the meeting Harris jumped at the start pushing tai wide and out of the race should have been called back. Scot Nichols wins the meeting is crowned British champion god help us before that in the in the previous re run what was kennet doing the move was stupid no way could he dive in to the third bend like that with out causing trouble a stupid move by a rider riding above his ability


  2. last year crump pedersen nicholls and adams raced round sheffield in sean s meeting with pedersen rounding nicholls out near the fence on the last bend fantastic racing and no air fence.the top boys know their limits .speedway here is the biggest loser as again we shoot oursleves in the foot we will never get rid of the mickey mouse image.a team quits in the middle of the season , people buy tickets some book days off work we move the event about.my brother was going to go to the meeting his first at sheffield in 20 odd years my nieces both watch the gp s on the tv and were looking forward to seeing the top lads in action but not now they will stay at home and watch mickey mouse on the disney channel

    to have add sky there watching the best riders in the world race on the best track in the country would have been somthing .


  3. just a thought about the point scoring for next year

    all the points scored in the heats remain the same .

    riders must be rewared for getting to the semis ,1st and 2nd go into the final

    getting points of 8 and 6 with the 3rd and 4th getting 4 and 2 the same in the final

    the points get added to the points scored in the meeting ie a rider winning all his heats plus winning the semi and the final would get 15+8+8=31

    i beleive this would make the riders race hard for points in all their races and not as can be seen sometimes settling for 2nd and sometimes 3rd when they already have enough points to make the semis

    this could also make the title race closer

     

    what are your thoughts


  4. who was the ref stevie wonder

    the guy was s??t

    norris lined rickardsen up and made his move fantastic never touched him t r layed it down to get the race stopped and therefore get another bite at the cherry

    the guy cheated a great thing to do from a so called legend

    andersen lays the bike down when crump is just holding his line crump is excluded

    crump lays it down when hancock is holding his line crump is excluded

    2 incidents both the same crump goes out in them both the guy has ever right to be p?????d off i personally would have put the bikes on the van and told the ref to shove it up his ???

    the 2 points nicki p lost because of tony [lay the bike down]rickardsens actions

    cost him a semi final place and if he d have been coming off gates 1 or 2

    it could have been a totally different ball game


  5. speedway will always have the mickey mouse image while we have fools making

    stupid rules . it made the knockout cup a farce.

    it s like telling football teams who go 3 or 4 goals down they can have a free goal to keep the match alive.

    i wonder if walt disney was at the conferance

    it also throws the question will riders throw racers to keep to being 6 points down
