Splatty 0 Posted October 3, 2003 At least one of the top two guys will choke giving Tony a chance This one is too close to call though - My heart says Jason but my head says that the sea has parted for Nicky all year and everyone knows that the world champion gets a high dose of luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTF 0 Posted October 3, 2003 Nicki doesn't need any luck he has TALENT Nicki to win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lugzalot 0 Posted October 3, 2003 Talent ? is that what its called when you put someone into the fence :? Watch out grandma here comes your grandson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTF 0 Posted October 3, 2003 I know with the riders you like that you don't actually know what talent is but i assure you nicki is full of talent! As for the fence change the record he hasn't done anything like that for ages and ages and ages you get the point He will prove you all wrong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lugzalot 0 Posted October 3, 2003 I know with the riders you like that you don't actually know what talent is but i assure you nicki is full of talent! My first speedway meeting in years was Eastbourne/Belle Vue so i went with a totally unbiased opinion of any teams or riders . I know im covering old ground here but my first impression of Nikki P was of him putting Jason Crump through the fence ( right in front of me ) Now with the likes of Shazzybird (although she wont admit it )who follows Eastbourne, Addy who is a Belle Vue fan through and through, Sean and Krissie who were also totally unbiased we all saw the same thing and that was certainly not talent. as a reborn fan i didnt think he was a very good advertisment for the sport. Jason Crump was in the rerun and showed what pure talent was by going out and winning. Everyone has their own "favourites" for the world title yours is Nikki P mine is Jason Crump. think we will have to agree to disagree on this one and may the best man win on saturday night ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TTF 0 Posted October 3, 2003 :-( :-( I do love nicki i know he sometimes fences riders but it's not a purpose spiteful thing! Despite that he is a good rider and he does have talent! and he is a nice guy off the track! Nicki is the rider who people love to hate and if he does win i know what will happen it will be he shouldn't have won he did this he did that :-( I will post a big congratulations to grumpy sorry crumpy (i do keep hitting the wrong key ) if he wins to show no hard feelings!

shazzybird 10 Posted October 3, 2003 Now with the likes of Shazzybird (although she wont admit it )who follows Eastbourne Canterbury fans don't believe her it's not true There's no proof! It's all in her head :!: tell 'em lugz........ tell 'em please :? Don't know where the rumour started :roll: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Splatty 0 Posted October 3, 2003 surely talent isn't in question here - we are talking about the best riders in the world I do think though, that like most sports world champions, the difference can quite often be a slice of good luck. So based on what I have seen this year that would favour pedersen and if Crump was to win it he'd have done it the hard way and would be deserved. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derwent 271 Posted October 3, 2003 Personally I think it'll come down to who keeps their nerve best, and for me that would be Nicki as I think Jason has a tendency to get a bit emotional and let things affect him. I hope not though, cos I think it'd be a travesty if Crumpy doesn't win a world title and he'll never have a better chance than this. He doesn't want to end up another Gollob, but can he handle the pressure ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Splatty 0 Posted October 4, 2003 This one is too close to call though - My heart says Jason but my head says that the sea has parted for Nicky all year and everyone knows that the world champion gets a high dose of luck and the sea parts for Nicky again!
