  1. Would agree regarding the track ,trouble is only a couple of your Team would want dirt on track.Slick track are the norm these days.
  2. Pity the people running the Sport don’t recognise that.
  3. Certainly not riding home meeting every week probably doesn’t help the confidence.Especially if you have a bad one.
  4. It was interesting that Pickering chose gates 1-3 having won the toss,obviously track conditions must have been a bit different to normal for some reason,also no outside line that Josh revels in.
  5. He certainly would be ,but really using a guest from a Team in your own section doesn’t help credibility.
  6. Not sure but Scunny we’re using a Jason Edwards as a guest at reserve.Maybe depends on averages.
  7. It’s time 2 min clocks were compulsory ,no problem with messing about in Poland and ignore the start marshals at your peril.
  8. Well done to the Bandits great result.Edinburgh we’re woeful,track prep suggested gating was paramount.Bickley really needs to apply for his job back at Tesco’s.Dick Barrie’s rolling about the track with excitement was surely worth the admission money.
  9. Let’s just face it if a rider has a bad night and is interviewed there will always be an excuse or reason for it.If Richie had made 5 gates it would have been a different story no doubt. It was gaters paradise but we’ll have witnessed in many times before all over the Country.
  10. Trouble is he has to start this season off form to get it down,then where would that put Birmingham.
  11. That was Morris’s genuine average though,if your waiting or wanting him to drop it you will take some defeats.
  12. That may be the case in Gb.In Poland they water the track every 4 heats along with track grade.Maybe track prep needs to be improved in GB.
  13. Agree,remember in 80s/ 90s at Powderhall/ Berwick when the juniors got a chance at reserve in the Main Team most of them struggled in Heat 2 because there was dirt on the track.They were only used to riding after meeting on slick tracks.Today even some good riders struggle with heavy tracks because of modern machinery.
  14. My example would Chris Harris 20+ years in GB and still says can’t find a set up.Would have to say I am a keyboard warrior along with yourself and everybody else on here ,and your calling me the expert.
  15. Just talking sh#te to make excuses for gullible fans.
  16. Professional riders should be able to work out a set up after one rider.Doctoring the starts!!
  17. It needs credibility though.Racing and Entertainment is important,but you need fans to watch it. The League is just a set of Challenge Matches these days.Everybody riding for Everybody when it suits.
