Thanks for that R & R. My wife always says she doesn't know why god gave me eyes !

Anyone seen the draw? Want to print my programme.

Too much listening to tantrum Ghostwalker. Totally different incidents. Hans was ahead of Harris when he drove under him. I agree Hans went down softly, but he was clipped. In the Pedersen incident Hans was clearly in front and Nicki rode into him trying to force his way accross.

I'd like to submit please 1. Nicki Pedersen (Captain) £60k 5. Hans Andersen £45k 10. Freddie Lindgren £30k 11. Chris Harris £30k 15. Emil Sajfutinov £25k Total £190k PS Is everyone else having trouble getting on the speedway world website today?

Sorry if this has been already said elsewhere, but just got back from Germany and in a rush to catch up with various things before the play off final tonight. Have been to Germany and Czech Republic for the last two weeks. Last week the weather in Koblenz where we were was georgeous. All right, 100+ miles away, but every weather forcast on the TV was good for the whole of Germany. Germany were playing Russia just down the road, and the word was that a big loss was in prospect as only 5,000 tickets to the speedway were sold. Another rumour was that the programmes were not even printed. You put two and two together!

Well does anyone know the answer?

The only reason we scored in mid/late meeting was that we had a run of inside gates, and we still did not utilize them to our best advantage. This emphasises how strange it was to use the joker on gate 4 in heat 6.

The manager must take some of the blame. Part of the job is motivation, and unless he was trying to do a Brian Clough, the negative comments comming from him before the meeting weren't good. Ok the riders didn't perform, but what was the logic in using the joker with Scott in heat six when Scott had not performed in his first ride, and was on gate 4. That was not clever. The Scott comes on TV and says he had bike troubles early on and changed bikes.

What is the format this year? I would like to prepare a programme for Saturdays Sky meeting, but the declared teams have only 5 riders. Last year we had reserves named if my memory is correct, at least that's what I have in my PC still. Have they gone back to the old format? Does anyone know the current format? Last year heat one was the four number ones, and heat two the four number twos etc up to heat five. Is that the format for 2008.
