  1. King would never get a 3rd in a GP. That was my point. I think the UK Championship was a one off top class performance from a middle tier rider.
  2. Will Hampel ever come back ? If he does he wont be the same rider for a very long time.
  3. Hard to omit Bomber on his Prague GP form. Wont see Danny King doing that.
  4. Good work from Bomber. Has to be an even harder choice for Rosco now for SWC Racing was the best ever from marketa. Didnt have much to beat but a very good GP.
  5. I thought that too as he looked over his shoulder to see where Tai was. shame the 2nd semi was stopped as Bomber was going to the final.
  6. Have you had a pint of lager ? You know you should not drink at your age.
  7. Very aggressive from Kildermand to knock Bomber off. Bomber lucky to only have bruises. If that had been Nikki !!
  8. http://rozklad-pkp.pl/en buy in advance here
  9. Kildermand was a replacement in 2015. Haven't checked the rules myself but TV made a big issue of him or Chris Holder getting into the top 8.
  10. Rosco has a very hard job to pick his top 4. watching Bomber last night at Lynn he would have to be picked but on 13th June form you couldn't go near him. Hard to omit a GP rider.
  11. Rules should be followed. Hampel should be allowed to ride when he is fit. If he rides well he would then be in contention for a 2017 wild card.
  12. Danny King wasn't in anyone's team before last night. He rode very well but one meeting on a wet heavy track shouldn't change that. His last appearance in the SWC tells it's own story. Our manager has a very hard job to pick a 4th rider to add to Tai, Cook & Lambert. On current form I would pick Scott Nicholls with Ellis as No5. Tough on Bomber as he has been a great servant but his form is poor and confidence must be low. Maybe he can have two good GP's to put him back in the frame.
  13. Did anyone go to Horsens ? How expensive is Denmark for food & drink. ?
  14. What rider is he pointing a finger at ? Must be a rider who has not performed well in any world championship before, is out the top 8 in 2016 but has good league form. Leaves two possible riders. Work it out for yourself.
  15. Well done to Hancock. Not my Fav rider but he is adding to a superb 2016 series. The racing is top class, no one is safe in any race and we have the prospect of having half a dozen riders being able to win the title with a couple of GP's left. With the odd exception we have the top 15 riders in the world competing and it makes for great racing in nearly every heat. Wild cards for 2017 could be a tricky process as some big names will finish out the 2016 top 8. The selection system may dilute the quality for 2017 ?.
  16. thank you. I had no idea about AJ but did know about Cook.
  17. You are wrong. He should be able to ride for GB and in the Elite League if he wishes. It's up to him where he works as an individual and he does plenty for GB speedway. He has given scheduling reasons and poorly prepared tracks as valid reasons. Why doesn;t GB speedway get its act in order and race on one night. We might get plenty of top riders coming back that way. Didn't he wear an Aussie shirt when watching the Eurovision Song contest ? Wonder how many will think I am being serious.
  18. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkuWlNTCOBoTqTl24ZKONXw/live Very good so far. Good explanation from Mr Gordon about the early track problems.
  19. No fault of Wolves and well done to Pete Adams for getting in PK. But the rules are nonsense. .
  20. If this schedule happened every week then I'd have loads of sympathy but it doesn't. The riders wont get tired because of a 2hr flight to the UK followed by two nights in a Cardiff hotel. Practise lasts about 8 laps and doesn't start until 3pm. The rest of the day is at there disposal to chill out. An early flight to Poland on Sunday is not nice but its part of the job and why the top riders earn plenty of Zloty in that country.
  21. dislocated shoulder that went straight back in.
