SCB 0 Posted July 16, 2014 Any rider who doesnt feel he is in th eright state (physically or mentally) should not be riding a speedway bike - regardless of what a few people on the internet say. Its dangerous enough when you're 100% with it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,824 Posted July 16, 2014 If he is suffering from exhaustion then he wil need to rethink his schedule for next year. Maybe he can do his charity stuff during the close season because its clear the events around Cardiff have taken it out of him. What an admirable thing to do to raise awareness of such a worthy cause. But that alone needs a huge thought process if it messes up his `bread and butter` racing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clambo71 136 Posted July 16, 2014 Is Woffinden on start money in the UK like a lot of No 1s in Europe and I've heard some in this country. Could low points scoring be an exit strategy that doesn't hit him in his pocket. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 0 Posted July 16, 2014 So why did he ride in Sweden? People who saw him Monday night said he looked like crap. Agreed. That for me is the issue. Not that hes taking time out but the fact he rode in Sweden. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfsbane 12,944 Posted July 16, 2014 It would have taken more than Woffinden to turn that shower into winners tonight Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,824 Posted July 16, 2014 As expected, another rubbish performance from a side intent on scraping at the bottom for the wooden spoon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikebv 10,292 Posted July 16, 2014 some very good racing tonight.... BV quite rightly used to get called for having a poor racetrack, however the last couple of seasons it has delivered some great racing... Having seen a lot of elite matches live and on 365 this year there hasnt been many better (if any) tracks delivering the high standard of racing BV has... Never thought I would say that...

Can't disagree with any of that Mike Tonight was a fantastic meeting. Wolves deserve credit as the score don't reflect the effort there boys put in. Pawlicki junior is some rider. Didn't score much but was always in the action and a few hard but fair moves stopped him scoring more 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted July 16, 2014 As expected, another rubbish performance from a side intent on scraping at the bottom for the wooden spoon. The rest of us aren't surprised - last season they punched above their weight which is obvious this season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ABS 231 Posted July 16, 2014 Pawlicki Jnr worth more than 8pts. His two races with Zagar worth the admission money alone. Biggest surprise was the 7+1 from Lee at reserve and it was merited. Fewer Wolves fans than usual and it's fair to say that Tai cost our promotion a few bob tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 0 Posted July 16, 2014 Who Wolves?? You are kidding right??? The results speak for themselves. Your team is crap and Proctor is a massive let down this season. Frankly only Thorsell and Pawlicki have done anything while the rest have done worse than most expected - and some of us didn't expect much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The comment was about last season as `punching above our weight` or words to that effect. Without injuries we were possibly the best team so hardly a relevant comment. This season is a huge disappointment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Agreed. That for me is the issue. Not that hes taking time out but the fact he rode in Sweden.He has to stop at some point. If he'd not rode in Sweden they'd be unhappy he could ride in Britain the night before. He honored his commitment to his 3 teams, which is something he deserves credit for, not slagging. The comment was about last season as `punching above our weight` or words to that effect. Without injuries we were possibly the best team so hardly a relevant comment. This season is a huge disappointment. So despite disagreeing you basically confirm what was said. Last season proctor performed at a level he never has before and has not done so since... Thus was punching above his weight.. Edited July 16, 2014 by BWitcher Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
