  1. The Referee warning them for doing so, think it was a certain Mr Ebdon
  2. My local Tesco superstore in Oxford stocks it.
  3. Maybe Cooke' s appalling fine was based as a percentage of the appalling pay rate offered by the promoters of the sport for riding in a National Event
  4. But due to his current circumstances, which could change for better or worst fairly quickly. Surely they should give him a date to declare that he will take his place so if he cannot commit to a full season another rider can be called in for a permanent slot.
  5. Get Ronnie P out of retirement and give him a Wildcard he makes his brother look like a Saint
  6. I think a lot of them who are only going to do Poland and GPs may start looking for another gig when they find their race sharpness isn't quite upto scratch. You can do lap after lap in practice and be fitter than a butcher's dog, but it's not racing and racing is what keeps you switched on. As for TW it's a bit presumptuous to drop Sweden when he's not even guaranteed a GP spot next year. I know it's a high probability and there would probably be uproar, but what would he do if he didn't get one ?
  7. Why doesn't a promotor phone Berwick and say can we hire your track covers. I know it would mean a bit of forward thinking but stranger things have happened. Admittedly it wouldn't have helped tonight, but if rain was forecast in the days leading upto the meeting and day of meeting was forecast to be dry they could help getting it on.
  8. I think First is what you look for they own lots of bus and rail franchises
  9. I wonder which promoter will be the first to delay the start of a meeting due to late arrival of the ice cream van.
  10. Reasons ? Bearing in mind the facilities are designed for their normal attendances. I assume you're a Peterborough fan so mentioning grass banking would be an own goal.
  11. Between Glasgow. Somerset or Scunthorpe I reckon and I'll plump for Scunthorpe to do the business.
  12. They'll have the heating on by then so The Icicle Works may have a meltdown and postpone the gig.
  13. Aha The British disease. So many young riders think they're World Champion Elect once they get a 4pt NL average and a sign written van and a piece of eyecandy on the arm. Then they seem with alarming regularity to take a break from the sport. Admittedly Robert Lambert is a bit of a different beast but in reality the place for partners and the vast majority of most parents and other associated hangers on is as far from the pits as possible. Let the rider and his team/mechanics concentrate on the job in hand.
  14. Let's hope the weather forecasters have it correct about the duration of this heatwave. Otherwise I'm going to look a right plonker if i have to wear my shorts and wellies
  15. My band offered to play but the stadium owners said it would be a danger if everyone went to the bar at the same time.
  16. 22 riders 15 Laps with a Le Mans start Winning team riders have to finish in consecutive positions but not 21st and 22nd
  17. I doubt if there's a problem regarding pay. Len Silver is old school. Why historically have so many riders stuck with his various teams.
  18. If you had it the day after the final GP. 9 -15 from the GP plus the top 9 from the qualifiers. Winner takes all. Well top 3
  19. Maybe now that plan B has worked the shackles are off so they're riding with less pressure. They've both been pretty under par all season but all of a sudden they now ride to their ability
  20. If you're a GP rider and doing the qualifiers as your plan B . you'd still be doing your best to get a top 8 place till the end of the final GP as you wouldn't know you already had a place for next season.
