topaz325 1,880 Posted July 16, 2012 Well done Denmark, good to see the young riders getting the chance and delivering the goods for the Danes. Holders face at the end of the meeting priceless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BritPete 625 Posted July 16, 2012 Why contratulate them? Cos they scored the most points in the final! Plenty of discussion going on on the SWC Final thread about the wrongs & rights of the joker. This thread is for congratulating Denmark on a string of fine performances which saw them deservedly life the Ove Funding trophy saturday night. Viva the red & white revolution! Who is Ove Funding?

A ORLOV 8,628 Posted July 16, 2012 (edited) Who is Ove Funding? Thats the name of the pension fund that the accountants set up for the great rider Ove Fundin. As for Denmark winning the World Cup congratulations to them. They included very good young riders who showed what they could do and NP showed up the stupidity of the rules. The joker should either be got rid of or only allowed when 8 or 10 behind. There should be a reserve, or two, who can only take a limited number of rides, Edited July 16, 2012 by A ORLOV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wackie 938 Posted July 16, 2012 Ooops, can you tell I work in finance and have been having a sneaky look at the forum whilst at work this afternoon 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BritPete 625 Posted July 17, 2012 As a matter of interest, Ove Fundin's real name was Ow Fundin, but when he came here to ride he changed it because he did not think that "Ow " was a suitable name for the Uk. I think he made a good choice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,067 Posted July 17, 2012 People can you not realise what happened here? Im not Nicki Pedersens biggest fan he whinges and moans is over the top hard a lot of the time and basically cant take what he dishes out. BUT.....the stupid joker rule allows this to go on, he played by the rules of the competition nothing more. If people want to see riders racing properly get rid of the rule and it wouldnt have happened. It has happened many times before in the world cup, ok maybe not as obvious but we know it goes on. So summing up i still dislike Nicki but here he did nothing wrong. What would people rather see some deliberate crashes to stop people using the joker get a grip!!
