I think if we had had 1 year out instead of 14 and started up at monmore in the NL the crowds would have been nowhere near what we got when we came back in 2010. Might be wrong. Can't see Coventry fans travelling to Leicester in any great numbers for NL. Again, could be wrong

I'm impressed with the memories of some of you, I could have my subject as my life and I still wouldn't get as many as 15!!!!!!!!

Every now and again on a Friday if I knew all the work was more or less done when someone who had helped out in some way or gone out of there way ,when they were going for lunch I'd say see you Monday il finish off this afternoon. Carrot and stick approach I think it's called. One staff member did say to me that he didn't understand why the staff all seemed to like me cuz I could be a right b***ard at times. Lol. Seemed to work though. I think !!!!! It was a different time 25 years ago though people seem more fragile these days. Some of the things said back then couldn't be said today I don't think

Went to a few the Scunny one was freezing I actually left before the end it was that cold. Like the idea but the reality is a different thing

It's a terrible way to run a business though trying to do everything, back in a previous life when I was a manager the first thing I did was get all the phone calls to me diverted to the staff. The calls were generally orders for stock and general questions. When one of the staff questioned this with me my response was I'm here to make sure everything runs right and sort it out when it doesn't your here to send stuff out. Delagation is a massive part of good man management. Obviously you need staff you can trust to do a good job but that's your job to get decent workers working for you

Would love to see Nicki in if he was mixing it but he's dip in form before the injury and then the injury I really think he will taint his past achievements if he does get in next year

I could have been so much more than I am, oh well off to the pub

I.O.W 5 guests and r/r and no one mentions it because let's face it it's just normal practice now. How much to get in Stoke tonight for 20 heats

I'm in Croatia and the hotel have Lent me an I phone,should I be able to watch the GP in the morning on it on the speedway GP site. Not sure the wife will be to happy. Lol

I think we all agree riders deserve a good rate of pay for what they risk. However you can't pay what you avnt got. Simple really

Sums me up spot on,trouble is I'm not that bothered if I miss meetings these days. On the slippery slope?

If some clubs close as rumoured there should be an excess of riders waiting for team places to open up so just maybe that will cut down on guests . Just a thought

brilliant what a rider

Come on Deano spill the beans

I hope you Belle Vue fans realise how lucky you are, if I could guarantee the M6 behaved itself I'd be happy travelling up there regular. The same goes for the M5 down to Somerset. When you have no idea how long it's going to take to get there it tends to put you off a bit

I think I might be on less than that Steve and usually only get about 18 hours but it suits my lifestyle and financial situation now. It's not to many years ago I was on 4 times the amount I'm on now and it was still not enough

Asnt everyone drove naked at one time or another or is it just me And Cookie

Just a thought but is it easier to anticipate off gates 1 and 4 because it's easier to see the magnets

Hate to say it because a fit and competitive Nicki is box office but I think if he gets a wild card he will be well off the pace and do his reputation as a great rider no good at all. Would love to be proved wrong but can't see it

So there was one circus next to another circus

I avnt given up as such yet but went to the pictures instead of our meeting tonight mainly because I can't do the Golden Hammer next week so feel my seasons finished but like so many I can't take this season serious anymore

Can someone put names to faces please, I do know them but my memory's that bad I can't remember what I had for t tonight

No but you described him perfect a freaky nerd that collects strange things ie parking tickets from away tracks plus programmes photos etc which is ok but parking slips. Strange

You've met my brother !!! He keeps parking tickets from away meetings
