screm 8,076 Posted July 31, 2016 Sorry mikebv I not only like to watch a good meeting which I'll give you yes it was I like to hear the heat times and when a tactical is being used and a joker etc that's all part of it for me. The presentation of the meeting was diabolical. Agree about the meeting presentation, bit of a let down both centre green and main announcer, I mean how many different ways can you pronounce Grajczonek.

martinmauger 586 Posted July 31, 2016 Thought Team GB did great. After watching the first events and how the Swede,s Poles and Assies went 'Woffy v The Rest' and therefore a home pasting seemed on the cards. But all the Brit riders did great; seeing off the Swedes and Aussies and getting within touching dstance of the 'always gonna be quick on this track Poles'. 2nd in the World Cup Final - I'll take that all day long. Freakin' brilliant .... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
racers and royals 8,777 Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) So the NSS and the Belle Vue club will be fully aware. Were the FIM & BSI informed? NB I'd email rhe relevant parties if I had the appropriate email addresses. Niamh. E-mail: info(at)fim-live.com speedway@imgworld.com If that's who you wanted to email ?

The presentation of the meeting was diabolical. I wasn't there so accept your comments about the PA system but would think anyone watching with a speedway background would be able to recognise the difference between Lindback and Freddie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fullbore 129 Posted July 31, 2016 E-mail: info(at)fim-live.com speedway@imgworld.com If that's who you wanted to email ? Cheers, I'd send to BSI as it seems they'd printed the tickets, cc to FIM & ideally NSS and Belle Vue. Niamh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt.Hartsock 8 Posted July 31, 2016 What a great meeting. Team GB certainly surprised everyone and how nice it was. Belle Vue fans are a very lucky lot, good on you. The Aussies got what they diserved, what an arrogant lot they are. Belle Vue Fans, we are in St.Helens this week and hope to take in the Wednesday league match, can I turn up and Park and get seats in the grandstand. Thanks.

Belle Vue Fans, we are in St.Helens this week and hope to take in the Wednesday league match, can I turn up and Park and get seats in the grandstand. Thanks. You can turn up & park on the night. Parking on the stadium car park behind turn 2 is £3, as I believe it is on the school too. You can also buy tickets from the ticket office on the night. Queues are much smaller than they were earlier in the season so you should be fine. Lakeside's previous visit to the Aces this season produced some excellent racing, hopefully more of the same on Weds night. Decent weather forecast too.

Belle Vue Fans, we are in St.Helens this week and hope to take in the Wednesday league match, can I turn up and Park and get seats in the grandstand. Thanks. Yep. There will need no road closures. So can park for free on the roads around the stadium or can park at the school for £3 And yes you can just turn up and buy a ticket at the ticket office. If u want to go back straight then there is a ticket office at the turnstiles there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midland Red 2,383 Posted July 31, 2016 Well... Take of the extra 3 points and it would be a tie for second. Could you see any of the Swedes beating Tai in a match race? Niamh 32 minus 3 = 29 That's one less than 30 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dodger Blue 152 Posted July 31, 2016 That was one fantastic meeting Saturday night,congratulations to all the riders,every one of them were going for it.Great view from the temp seats crown of bends 3/4, we were near the front so could actually hear the pa!! Added entertainment watching security chasing Polish fans who were trying to empty the 18 pints of beer that they had all consumed with inevitable results along the back fence, as some bright spark believed that 10 portable loo's each end of the stand would be enough!!!

SCB 15 Posted July 31, 2016 (edited) Brilliant meeting last night and a great atmosphere in the stadium. Had a good laugh pre, post and during the meeting with the Poles. Friday night we were in bend 1 but got a free upgrade to the seated 3rd/4th bend for last night and both were great views. Had a great laugh with the lady next to me from Ipswich too, both jeering the Aussies and cheering the Brits Glad I didn't buy a programme having seen the state of them! And what he hell was that shower of 5hite for display at the end? Why no fireworks? Comedy moment was the plastic Aussie in front of us who after the last race pulled out a GB hat 😂😂 silly moo Edited July 31, 2016 by SCB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
