    Peterborough Panthers 2014

    I don't think they do. Most people are forwarding and/or exaggerating the rumours. Concerning situation, that's for sure. Do tell, would like to know the facts.
  2. Would like to see him score 2012.
  3. You've proved his point, again.
  4. Thought it was quite clear. Forget it, let's move on.
  5. Not according to your last post.
  6. Don't understand why they all keep putting themselves in the same position year in year. Like it or not the play offs will have to carry a cut off date, for obvious reasons. The PL start with a meaningless League Cup, then drip feed a few PL fixtures before going weeks without a meeting in the height of summer. The weather will play it's part but not in all cases. Start all leagues with the play off qualifiers, league matches. This should provide sufficient time for a full fixture list, none of this play some teams once, others twice stupidity. It would also give enough time to promote the play offs. With such an inconsistent fixture list, riders riding for 2 or 3 teams and foreign league commitments it was destined to end in the farce we are facing. Double-headers used to be a rarity, we are inundated with them this season.
  7. That's a very blinkered view. You have been involved in numerous discussions surrounding the shenanigans and corruption in the EL. Not saying it doesn't go on in other leagues but repeat, I would be apprehensive boarding a sinking ship. Birmingham tried it when desperation came calling after Frost/Sadhugate.
  8. Mildenhall done and dusted around 1 hr 15 mins yesterday, excluding parade. That's with both teams using R/R, therefore a few heats with 2 on the trot. Admittedly no incidents or restarts which can make a big difference.
  9. I agree it should have been used in the PL, 2 Brits at reserve would suffice. All I'm saying is after the balls up they've made of the EL I can understand the apprehension / reluctance to go with their idea. Is that really what the EL wanted, where would their cost saving come from?
  10. I don't see it like that. Would you vote to board a sinking ship. Not really worked very well for Birmingham and Eastbourne.
  11. It should have been but The BSPA didn't use what they have. It's terrible for the sport now as people can see on TV what a complete mess it is. It actually promotes how crap it is - not the intended vision. Saturdays GP, that's how it's done.

    Wolves V Leicester 1/09

    This is the EL? Oh dear, sadly it's so out of control now.
  13. This meeting had everything,,,,,,, that is wrong with EL Speedway. No wonder people are leaving the sport in droves.
  14. Still keep chuckling at this. Brightened up a boring meeting - good shot 😂😂😂
  15. He's a bit early. Don't tell me Robinson is the Ref
  16. Generally chosen by locality.
  17. Yes PL have gone for the ridiculous pick situation this season.

    Kings Lynn V Poole 14/08/14

    Delayed starts due to significant increase in punters, frustrating I agree but a positive in my mind.
  19. Thought they really tried to get on with it, riders on 2 mins straight after race finished. Not their fault too many riders going for the roller or the several crashes 3rd bend. Admittedly we do appear to have electrical faults too often at the EOES. Congratulations Somerset, worthy winners.
  20. The Polish PL, not the big boys. Would have made no difference in my opinion.
  21. Great meeting on a great race track, very entertaining and what a finish. Expected GB to finish 4th so didn't disappoint. They just don't have the hp to compete on big fast tracks. So far behind from the gate against this opposition.
