  1. It's always Machinary and cash that affects Barker,wonder why.!
  2. There are a few of your " also rans" the stars of the future and not much older than Leon.
  3. You training to be a clairvoyant I see.Mind reading is not for you,it's cross stitching you told me.!!
  4. Yip,a year at NL level is a must .When you see how Kyle Bickley is faring in his first year Championship level it makes you realise the gulf between the leagues.The way Lambert showed up all the young talent. In the U21 Final also hits this home IMO .
  5. I have seen dozens of young prospects over the years never progress to levels that their talent suggests,to suggest that he is better than to ride for Berwick at this stage is off the mark.Imo.If he can get good deals elsewhere fair enough,but is there really that much money going about for riders at his level.The sport is on its knees paying over the odds to riders.
  6. Having watched his Polish meetings half of the guys he manages to beat ,I have never heard of and are Polish juniors.He doesn't look fast enough!
  7. Ivan Mauger used a notebook for every "set-up and track conditions" didn't do him any harm.! Half the riders are kidding themselves these days,as long as the have a flash van sign written and a couple of bikes they think they have "made it".
  8. I am not talking about riding the bike,why do journeymen speedway riders sell their equipment that working perfectly fine and serviced regular,only to find they can't seem to get their new stuff to work for half a season .Better to be tuner than a rider nowadays a lot of money to be made!.Harris is perfect example.If it's not broken why mend it!
  9. Is Cook saving himself for GP and Poland? ,pretty mediocre start to season IMO
  10. I must admit and a few of my road racing friends can't understand these setup and mechanical problems that riders seem to have season after season.They ride the same tracks every season yet struggle every season.The engine itself is not a complicated or sophisticated piece of equipment but seems to cause no end of troubles for seasoned riders.
  11. Having seen all three meetings over the week end ,I agree.
  12. Funnily enough I was thinking the same at the week-end,not sure what's going on with him,think he has aTeam in Poland now.Great talent though IMO .
  13. Must admit I was disappointed in young Kyle Bickley in both meeting though he would have been up with pace a bit more,maybe had mechanical issues!.
  14. Have been impressed with Dany this season,he has saved us most matches this season.
  15. Track prep is way to complicated for us forum fannies to understand,just got to move to another part of the stadium if it gets dusty fromHeat1.
  16. If you thought that was awful hope you didn't make it to Berwick on Sat.!
  17. Maybe he was carrying an injury but I find it hard to believe that BWD hurt his knee colliding withJye as he just seemed to take his leg away with his front wheel he never got out of shape or even looked like pulling up when the ref stopped the race!!! Still that's speedway.Tonights racing was poor IMO most races sorted out by back strait,will give Ref benefit of doubt regarding NJB,but how she excluded Jye is beyond me and probably 99% of the crowd terrible decision IMO.
  18. Fine,but cannot see them surviving on crowds of that level.How many do you reckon were there?
