Triple.H.

He'd keep getting excluded for too much gardening at the tapes

Straw/hay sprinkled with methanol. Ignite it Let it burn out Cool down Spike the track

Maybe time to make the chairmanship Matt Ford's gig Let's face it he's the most successful promoter of the last 15 - 20 years

A slightly better field than Norden

Who's Hans Neilsen ?

SCB if he could afford the pay cut would probably be a good shout as an independent chairman of the BSPA and a one man management committee.He'd upset a few of the old guard. But at least he has ideas on how to avoid fixture clashes etc Probably need sectioning by the end of the season

Bet they still have to try and cram 4 home meetings into 2 weeks in September while during the long hot summer they can't fit one in

I guess so

Derek Superted Harrison was a bloody great entertainer. I think he did a few amateur meetings a couple of years back

Couldn't Cradley move to Birmingham ? A mix of hopefully both teams supporters could go a long way to getting Cradley back home and a lifeline for someone to take over Birmingham Ok I'll admit it I'm delusional

If I'm remembering correctly that was a test match at Belle Vue the day after the 85 world final. Think he was John Cook's mechanic and actually a waterskier. Conditions on the day suited him.

I bumped into PC at Cardiff 2016 in the street outside Cardiff and had my photo taken with him while thanking him for the racing memories. Went in a nearby pub and had my photo taken with Gary Havelock Another very nice bloke who had plenty of time for the fans wanting to have a chat with him Whoops I forgot to say even though I hated those bloody Heathens from Cradley Alan Grahame and Phil Collins were probably the best team riding duo in every meeting I saw them in.

Ta Muchly

Is that just riders who actually rode or include those who were booked for rainoffs ?I only guessed 147 as I was talking to a colleague about his snooker match the night before

147

They increased the rent and Trump said it wasn't sustainable. I spoke to another promoter a few months later who said he thought Oxford would've already been paying more than what the GRA had increased the rent too

One of the BT channels is like SkySports news but showing a programme to. On the TV it says to switch to channel ? For full screen

We can't get the powers that be to say with a 7 rider team if you use R/R that you have to name a number 8 IMO they won't name a number 7

SCB I'm not a plumber but I know plenty, most take more than £1K home. Admittedly the market is getting flooded with them ( no pun intended ) nowadays. But experienced plumbers in Oxfordshire are on bloody good money

I've got a sneaking suspicion that Nicki Pedersen will retire on medical grounds. He's had a few big getoffs in the last few seasons. Apparently has plenty of money in the bank IMO needs to think of his health and his family and try to find something else to get his Adrenalin rush from

^^^^^^^^^^^^ Happy Track

Think KN hates the Launchpad

So I'll give you a daft ideaIf you retain a rider from the previous season his team building average is cut by 0.25 to 0.5 if he goes elsewhere it remains as it's actual average. That would hopefully promote some loyalty from promoters and riders and keep fans and local sponsors happy

I'm going to put my head above the parapet and no doubt get a verbal lynching by many here. But I think you would be pretty much a perfect fit as an independent top man at the BSPA. You tried to drag the mostly fuddy-duddies into the modern era and seemed to upset them. The sport is in this country now at a major crossroads and your ideas and input could be it's saviour.

I think a way of improving the coverage would be for videos of various races/incidents that have been filmed by the various tracks video teams to be used. The videos that are posted on the BSPA site all seem to be of decent quality. Every televised meeting have a round up of the previous weeks meetings. Also for the casual viewer who's just channel hopping they may see action from a track close to them that they didn't know existed and pop along to a meeting.
