World Championship Pairs
Sidney the robin replied to Mark's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
The names you named plus Collins,Michanek,Olsen,Lee you would like to think from the year 2000 in there pomp they would of had a chance of winning title's.All hyphaphetical i know all about opinions but Moxey is your opinion blinded by your love of the one- off Final??I am of the same opinion as you and the Series is not a love of mine i prefer team racing but i do respect what the Series has done for the few???I agree with the 10/ 15 year period on judging and Tai is probably only after Ricko/ Crump in the modern day pecking order also when Crump retired those bad burns he received were the reason.In the History of the sport Nielsen and Crump certainly deserved to have won more World titles. -

Lambert really has impressed me this year i was worried last year that his career might just end up petering out.Over the years i really thought Mel Taylor,Mark Courtney,( etc) could push on but none of them ever managed it and in Lambert we can see what a real talent he is.His next step is to keep his focus keep working hard and with the great help of his Mum /Dad build up his aquipment he will be ready for a assault on the World stage in three years time i believe. -

A great debate for another day but my take on it would be a PEAK Collins would beat a PEAK Woffinden in a best of 20 races.My theory on this is that PC could actually gate on a level par with Tai which over the years was a Collins weakness.But the deciding factor would be that Collins had the ability to come from the back he is by far the best rider i have ever seen in that department. -

Yes you are right we can judge Tai after his career has finished Collins is certainly the best International team rider i have ever seen ride Craven, P.C, Lee, Tai, for me are all special in there own way. I suppose it is best to judge them on your own personal experience of seeing them ride ( unfortunately i never got to see Craven) -

A great post spot on about Tai/England but the greatest rider we have ever had? i personally would not agree with that but he does have a great case. -
This year Auty has been better than Harris at Championship level and the riders in that group can all beat each other on one given day.Lambert,Cook,S.Worrall,Bewley for me are easily the top four riders we have alongside Tai.Cook is the one that has a few question mark's to answer even this Monday in the British Final he is not the favourite a big night for him.

Scorpions vs Diamonds - 08.06.18 19.30
Sidney the robin replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Was it just great riding by the Scunny pair or was it a poor Lindgren ride ? for me Robbo lifting decided the race it changed the race completely. Robbo lifted Auty came underneath him and then got the speed on the outside to make a final charge great race though. -

I cant wait until Monday i get back from holiday just in time ,a great track a real even looking line up and a added bonus to see Steve Worrall back.My heart says Lambert but i have a feeling he won't win it for me Lambert,Bewley,,Schlein,Cook are the front runners with endless other spoilers in the meeting. -

I don't pick my copy up until the Friday anyway but usually get a extra copy at Swindon on the Thursday.My only complaint is i wish they would stick to just one picture on the front cover apart that a great value magazine.

Ipswich Witches v Sheffield Tigers 7th June
Sidney the robin replied to Badge's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
To be honest bruv he was in a tough position tonight he did his job chuffed to bits for Hume/Mountain they scored ten between them. Both were unlucky as well Witches have two good longterm Ipswich riders for the future in Mountain/Hume. -

I have and his time has long gone as i have said before Adams/ Oliver are the best two team managers i have ever known.Boocock/Thomas also are worth a mention. -
Brummies v Eagles Wed 7th June NL
Sidney the robin replied to Brummies_Ste's topic in National League Speedway
Have Cupitt and Butcher maybe got a month to push on or will the managerial team make changes.? Or maybe they might take a different stance patience knowing the top four plus Walker will win most matches therefore letting those lads develop. -

Sidney the robin replied to Mark's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I think if you win a title like Doyle did by making changes and to be honest he should be a double World Champion you know you cannot take any short cuts.If you put in the graft physically and fail i am sure it is easier to except rather than something in the back of your mind saying if only i had put in that extra yard. -

Oliver created a real local feel he was well ahead of his time at Vue with local riders given a chance.The 1972 team of Mauger ,Pusey,Sjosten,Wilko,Collins,Eyre,Broadbelt is still the greatest side i have ever seen.
