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".

See BWD make a quick recovery to ride yesterday! -
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!

Belle Vue vs Wolves - Ko Cup - 7th May 18 12pm
Fromafar replied to Aces High's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Is Cook saving himself for GP and Poland? ,pretty mediocre start to season IMO -
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.

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 . -

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!. -

Have been impressed with Dany this season,he has saved us most matches this season. -

If you thought that was awful hope you didn't make it to Berwick on Sat.! -

Fromafar replied to Normski's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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. -

Decent match tonight draw was probably a fair result,though Berwick had their chances to win.No lack of effort from anybody but Howe was disappointing again hasn't got going this season ,Kev and Dany were awesome.Lindman fell when in a safe 3rd just trying to hard though which you can't fault.Bewlay was very disappointing for Workington.Crowd was dire the worst I have ever seen at Worky. ps Jenga ,where were you with this cross stitch manual you promised.!!! -

You reckon! You might be right regarding the moaning but there are a few Promotions who will not be getting my cash on a regular basis as they have been doing. ps. where will I find a good instruction manual on cross stitch ?? -

All pretty farcical IMO.People are not going to waste good money to watch understrengh Teams every other week.Im just about ready to give on this sport. -
Don't think Doolan should ride at 2 with such a weak 3-4 pairing.Only my opinion!!!
-
Also best not too reply in the manner he did.Most fans know he gives his best out on track.He lets himself down with some of his comments IMO .
-
The sport is just a mess regarding guests and R/R.Clubs should not sign riders who can't commit to their fixtures,if every club done this it would solve a few problems.Clubs don't want to ride rearranged matches because of missing riders we'll get rid of these guys and use young talent instead ,might also be more entertaining than watching some older riders just earning a living out of the sport.

Was too simple,so let's complicate things!!!!!!!

Polish Speedway compared to British Speedway
Fromafar replied to mike1944's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
agree that was a great meeting some spectacular action.Woffy still doesn't mix it much,solid and safe but will that do at GP level. -
Wonder how much of the Promoters money Chris earned last night,doubt it was nothing for scoring nothing though.
