The 2009 Premier League Riders' Championship

[scunny1 436]

Well done Ricky,best man on the night and bad luck David Howe a repeat of your semi final sweep around the outside was just too much to ask. One major gripe get some stewards on the car park at leaving time cos 50 minutes of bumpers to move 50 yards is a joke!

I really enjoyed yesterdays meeting at Sheffield first class racing on a great track as a Stars fan i was a little disapointed Darcy or Tom didnt win though had Dacy not got caught up in traffic in the final i,m sure he,d have won as he was closing in on Ashworth fast . Only one moan about yesterday is what a poor PA system couldnt hear a thing on the first bend .

Strong words from Ty Proctor in the Middlesbrough Evening Gazette tonight.

 

"Take the meeting to anywhere else and bring it on"

 

"It's Ricky Ashworths home track of course he's going to win it. He rides here every week. Take it to Kings Lynn, take it anywhere else and there would have been a diferent winner".

 

Saying what most people are thinking. Far from sour grapes, just common sense! Ashworth wouldn't have won anywhere else!

To be honest there is no need for that. Bellers is making a valid point, which alot of fans are also agreeing with.

Taken from the BSPA site:-

 

 

DARCY Ward believes his slow start in the final of the Premier League Riders’ Championship cost him a chance of victory.

 

The King’s Lynn man was in his final and was edged out by Sheffield’s Ricky Ashworth.

 

Said Ward: “I was disappointed. I’ve worked so hard all year. I came here as favourite and didn’t pull it off. If I’d have made the start in the final I would have smoked him.”

 

Well if my aunty had ball$ she'd be my uncle

So what Procter is saying is, at Kings Lynn Ward/Topinka wouldn't have an home advantage - yeh right.

 

[Bagpuss 10,784]

He's right, but I think if any of the four finalists had made the start they would have 'smoked' the final.

 

Interesting comments from Proctor, although I'm not sure that holding it at Lynn would solve the home advantage problem

Ty must be either trying to be ironic or trying to prove some kind of point!!

 

It's clear to all that Ashworth only won as the meeting was @ Sheffield but he can only beat what's in front of him!!

ward is a talent but <unacceptable language removed>

[Bagpuss 10,784]

He's arrogant, cocky and hates losing....sounds like a future World Champion to me

[Yearbyred 1,107]

Ty is not the most gracious of losers (although he is better than he was last year). Think he was speaking out of frustration more than anything else.

 

Actually - Ty might have had a chance at Kings Lynn

i saw proctor in the pits when ricky was making his speech and he looked like he was crying and sean wilson was calming him down.

ward was stood next to him having an interview, i must say i do not like darcy wards attitude at all, yes he is a good rider but he is a miserable to55er when he doesn't win.

 

proctor blew his chance of having the best gate in the qualifiers, and he has beaten ashworth around owlerton a few times this year, ricky obviously wanted it more last night

OH DEARY DEARY ME, is this same Ty Proctor, who was talking it large in the Redcar local press how he was going to win the meeting, funny I don't recall him mentioning Ricky Ashworth having home advantage.

I think young Proctor needs to put his dummy back firmly in his mouth,and yes very much sour grapes.

don't you just love it when the aussies are whinging,just makes life so much sweeter!!!!!!!
