  1. I'm not arguing and I do believe you. I also couldn't give a toss what another governing body do in a completely different sport, their drawing of lots is at the end of a very exhaustive procedure and if it were to happen in the next world cup the world would go into meltdown on the back of it. Maybe you think the gates should have been decided on penalties? Bring a 5 a side goal out and have a shoot out. Back in the 70's, in speedway, qualifying in the 2nd half events was often given to the fastest 2nd place rider, so it's nothing new... but if you want it decided on the toss of a coin, so be it
  2. Not stressed at all... just trying to have a civilised discussion, seemingly beyond some people
  3. It still is tyre changes... any idea why tyre changes were back in vogue tonight while it was in the rules for the CLRC but was ignored?
  4. And trying to win a wild card to Cardiff being run on the same night as his longtrack round... what was all that about?
  5. Sorry for having an opinion... keeps you all occupied
  6. 1968? A very different age, there's so much money involved in sport these days it's hard to actually imagine it happening...
  7. Can you imagine the outcry if that were to actually happen! Seems to me we've spent all this money on transponders only to revert to the toss of a coin
  8. If you're going to insult me, at least do it in English you silly tart!
  9. Unbelievably Glasgow are claiming victory!
  10. Surely Poole made Bomber and Basso the riders they are today
  11. Yeah, time, I'd happily go with that, at least it's performance based, I can't be doing with coin tosses once a competition has started, should easily be doable now with transponders... or why have transponders?
  12. Anything but a coin toss really, something performance based, it is sport after all... not bingo
  13. Like Oliver Reed and Alan Bates It's how all disputes should be resolved
  14. I know... I can read and everything... if that's the way you want to run your sport... you get the sport you deserve
  15. Panthers! Glory Glory Peterborough Panthers!
  16. Peterborough may very well end up winning something this season
  17. Who's making these rules up you have to ask... toss of a coin? Honestly!
  18. There's been some really great speedway after a dodgy start and despite some dodgy rules and refereeing! If only the sport was administered properly...
  19. Can't think of many other sports that have different rules to decide the same thing
  20. Where's the consistency?
  21. You can't get better than a kwik fit fitter
  22. They could use the same rule though, that's the point!
  23. I think they're making it up as they go along... how on earth you can take it seriously as a competition is quite beyond me
  24. Can somebody please mention tyres? I'll get slaughtered if I do!
