Do you miss the great occasion that was Cardiff ?
foreverblue replied to Phannan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Obviously a log of justifiable criticism of the track but it it hadnt been so bumpy Bomber would never have won, he loves a challenge! As a Poole fan Lindback winning was another highlight especially as I had a decent bet on him. Criticism of the hotels is justified also but you didn't have to stay in Cardiff, we hardly ever did preferring to stay outside Cardiff and get a train in. -

Part of the enjoyment was the whole city seemed to embrace it and people were talking about it everywhere you went. Also you could guarantee it would be on although the drainage and facilities at the NSS seem to be so good the meetings there are rarely affected. -

I went to every Cardiff gp too and I miss it very much. It was an occasion and a big event, now it is great racing on a great racetrack but a lot less people see it live. -

Stayed at Bridgend a few times and Porthcawl caravan site both not far on the train. Never understood why people stayed in Cardiff and paid crazy prices for hotels. Like you quid over the years especially when Bomber won. -

Cardiff was a great occasion and the last gp held there was pretty good racing wise, the year before was awful though and that is probably what killed it although I thought they pulled the plug too soon. Nothing wrong with transport, plenty of trains and buses. You didn't have to book an expensive hotel, we always stayed locally, last time was Caerphilly 30 mins on the train. -
Yes every opportunity is taken to kick us, even when it is not our fault. It is fair to say sometimes we bring on ourselves though!

Ah so you are the Poole of the premiership!!
-
I am sure he will be in the championship next season, his average will level out when he is in main body of the team.
-
He needs to lower it a bit or he won't get a team place next season!!
-
Surely it will be called off due to the threat of rain.
-
And Belle Vue
-
It may not have needed to be rushed through or only get to heat 10, if the rain did not start until 8.30, the rain at that point may have only been enough to damp the dust down, in my experience the Kings Lynn track has always been able to take a bit of water.
-
Could of been hurried through because of rain threat.
-
Well done Kings Lynn for the early call, torrential rain due very soon.
-
Oh I thought he was talking about himself!

Edinburgh Monarchs Vs Poole Pirates 29th May 2026
foreverblue replied to Bitza's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Yes maybe lack of experience too. Probably should have put Will in heat 14. -

So Bowes may have got 2 last night which would not have been much different to Tate but we would have expected more from Zischke given he got 9 last time. Harris got 13 the last time he was at Edinburgh and Dan T got 11, so he outscored Dan T on his own track, maybe last night the track didn't suit Harris, no idea why he gets 13 one month and 6 the next. -

He used to play for QPR!! -
The 2004 World cup final was incredible just a shame we lost! Sport is about winning though and while many would have gone home saying we lost but a cracking meeting, a large section would have been gutted we didn't win. Unfortunately some of the most entertaining venues in this country have been lost.

Not sure speedway lives and dies on entertainment, if you dont win the crowds soon dwindle. That said there must have some entertainment last night for you Harris got 15 points. There have been many,what you would call entertaining tracks, that are sadly not here anymore, they did not close because there were not entertaining.
