Sorry, drop a cog but your original question was in the present tense. I think you must be the only person who believes that AJ rides currently in the EL. I think the scale of the response shows you are in a very small minority who thinks that the EL is superior to the other 2 major leagues. Good argiung in favour of Steady, but I personally think that Bomber has outperformed him both in the individual qualifying and (marginally) the WTC. This combined with a disappointing display at Cardiff may well tip the balance in Bomber's favour. If BSI insist on having to seed 2 Brits I think it would be unjust for Steady to get the nod in front of Bomber.

Glad to see no musicians in the colour section....

Regardless of whether his points count or not, it was a creditable performance. After the recent loss of Toni Kasper and the debilitating injuries that have stalled the potential of the Dryml brothers, Czech Speedway needs a shot in the arm and it would be good to see Tomicek or Simota(or anyone) make a breakthrough in the next couple of years.

). Just go to Sky.com, there is a feedback link at the bottom of the page. You can give feedback to the Sports director (only 512 characters allowed though)

Agree with all the above except I thought the "Sullivan could clinch the championship" was his best effort last night. When you consider the amount of money Sky invest in their sports coverage it beggars belief that they then go and employ someone who has proven time and time again that he is totally incapable of doing a competent job.

Slightly conflicting arguments? If it's all right for Iversen to do his growing up in the GP's then surely Bomber (or Steady) should be afforded the same.

Agree with what you say and a very strong finish to the Series this year might save him, but I can't see a Dane getting a seeded spot (making 4 Danes) and leaving GB with only 1 rider for 2007.

Right so Stead should get seeded and Bomber is a reserve!!!!!! If a Brit gets a nomination its got be Bomber. With regards to an earlier post calling for Loram, how can you justify putting Loramski in front of Harris or PK?

Just like to add my thanks to Anders for the updates tonight - great work!!!

Not saying that Bomber shouldn't get in as things stand. I am glad he rode so well tonight and has given himself every chance of being seeded. Imagine if he'd only got 5 or 6 points but BSI still seeded a Brit to make 2. I agree with you that PK is likely to be the guy with the hard luck story.

Swop Gollob for PK and I think you may have the 15 for next year. There might still be some shocks about who qualifies in the top 8 though.

Speedway Star this week said it was "inconceivable" that there wouldn't be 2 Brits in the Series. Given the magazine's ties with the GP's there is probably some truth in that comment. If there is to be a 2nd Brit through this loathed seeding system then Bomber must be the pick, it would be grossly unfair if Stead or richardson got the nomination in front of him. Having said that I don't agree with this quota idea of giving countries a certain amount of representation. If the Brits aren't good enough then they shouldn't be in.

First Tricast I've ever got I think.

Just imagine if Lindback doesn't buck up his ideas in the GP's, will it be a toss up between him and PK for a second Swedish spot?

So it's Jagus, Rune and Hans with PK missing out after getting 14 points in qualifying. Well done to the 3 qualifiers - delighted Holta is back where he belongs.

Another year in the Elite (hopefully making more appearances) and maybe next year The Gaffer will be in with a shout for the GP's - any chance of him getting the Wild Card for Latvia this year?

If Gb gets a 2nd spot, Bomber should get it. He's not out yet though, Jagus could run a last!!!

Both off Gate 1, from where Holta just ran a 3rd. Up to Stead to do his fellow Brit a favour.

Don't know if 11 will be enough, both Jagus and Holta beat Bomber in Heat 5.

Even that hope has gone now, another win for Bomber! giving him 9. Steady languishing on 5, bad last for Pepe.

If he doesn't out perform Bomber in the next couple of races I can't see him even getting a seeded spot.

Way to go Bomber!!!!

Come on Norbold it's easy. Just think of some easy questions, look earlier in the thread for some tips on how it's done.

Don't forget Pepe. Started with a win and a 2nd. Steady needs a win next time out.

Very good point SCB. No point backing someone to win an event where it only matters to finish in the top 3. With the odds for Hans and Holta being so short there is plenty of e/w value to be had.
