Pob 545 Posted September 16, 2016 Ok lets have a little look at things shall we . Who on here 4 months ago would have said with confidence that we would make the play offs ? No one i bet and if you say different your either a liar or completely stark raving mad !!! We were a disjointed team heading nowhere and looked awful . I think CL and his Team deserve a pat on the back for changing things and turning our season around with the changes they have made . Alot of us have said that they were probarly made a little two late tp make a difference to where we finish but due to other results of other teams we find our selves in the play offs . 3 weeks ago i would have still said we were going to miss out but i'm glad i was proved wrong . So has the nosiey bunch of nutters on the back straight helped maybe but it has made going to meetings alot more fun . With each passing week there has been more and more interaction between the BSF Massif the crowd and the riders which can only be a good thing. Special praise to Ben Barker always showing his support to us on the back straight . There is a kind of buzz / feel good factor right now at foxhall . How far can we go in the play offs not sure over two legs we will give any side that is left a good match but are we strong enough to win the whole thing probably not . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted September 16, 2016 Is it any coincidence that as soon as we started doing our stuff the riders seemed to perform better? I would imagine having an audience to entertain and feel some love back has helped along with the changes. It's how I remember speedway being at foxhall through the glory days. And it's totally changed my outlook on speedway since the doom and gloom of a few months back. Thanks guys, big love💗💗💗💗💗 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Halifaxtiger 5,318 Posted September 16, 2016 We have an extra week of speedway..... hopefully we will have an extra week after that, and may even make it into October! All hail King Julian Superb cakes BTW! One of the best sights of the night was Sue trying to eat a cake, fill a programme in and do the texting at the same time. In the end, I held her phone and programme and she had the time it took to run a race to get the cake down her. It was touch and go but a big effort on the last lap saw her come home first. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazysue 613 Posted September 16, 2016 (edited) I did point out that I am female and it was cake....should have been obvious I would do it! Very nice cake it was too, particularly liked the surprise jam inside, was not expecting that at all. Edited September 16, 2016 by crazysue 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted September 16, 2016 Maybe another time you may get to try the salty caramel surprise cup cakes. Can you guess the surprise?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazysue 613 Posted September 16, 2016 Caramel by any chance? Seriously, it was a gorgeous cake and the jam took it to another dimension. In a way, I am pleased I didn't know about it, made it all the nicer for not knowing/hearing/paying attention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure my other half will be glad you enjoyed them, she put a fair bit of time and effort in. Plus she makes cakes for part of our living lol. If they were not nice then I would be worried 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
