Lifes to short to listen to family, I tend to do what I want ,take the flak knowing it will calm down after a few weeks. Lol.

Have to disagree, I like watching the pl darts but would always watch it on catch up which in effect turns it into a highlights package. Then again thinking about it with speedway I tend to tune in about 45 minutes after its started and watch on catch up. This is league meetings, when the gps were on sky I enjoyed watching live but that was proberly more to do with it being a Saturday night,wine and curry

Speedway on tv is best as a highlights package so the delays can be cut out. When it's live and there's a delay there's the temptation to switch over then not switch back

You know I haven't got the most exciting of lives but if one of you come into my local please don't start a conversation with me . Thanks very much

Thanks, I won't be bothering at that price

I never heard that phrase before

Phoned to cancel sky sports but they offered me such a good deal decided to tie myself in till next January just for the league speedway really although I watch darts and wrestling. Oh well there you go, no league speedway, gps or moto GP for me this year. Anyone know the cost of adding bt to sky? I wonder if BT will have an offer on to entice speedway fans, I think there was last year

Totally agree Sid I remember a friend of mine saying to me when we signed Michanek he's not really a Olsen, Mauger or Collins. I remember saying yes he is but in reality he's best days had gone. Then again I remember going to Reading and I'm sure he got a 21 point max and we lost 40-38 . Could be wrong on that though

It was the Bernie/JB/Cribby era Sid .I always find it strange with Johnny Boulger, I've always thought of him as a bit of a Cradley legend when in reality I think he only rode for us for 3 years. Similiar with Bobby Schwartz though and I think he only did the one season

Funny enough Sid I'm enjoying my speedway more than ever, I've obviously followed the Heathens for the past 7 years at first home and away but a couple of years ago I was getting a bit disillusioned so we started cutting back on away meetings but going to other random meetings, such as Ipswich v's Somerset , Workington, Glasgow etc and my enthusiasm came back. I've still my team to support but I've varied it up a bit. Can't wait for the new season and my visit to Swindon as well !!!!

Funny but it was about this time I started to lose a bit of interest in speedway, it's a long time ago but I'm sure the racing wasn't as good as the mid to late 70s. I went now again in the late 80s and early 90s but only really got back into it in 1999 when I started going up monmore

Hope Dudley council don't get involved, we would have no chance

Oy yo I ay gorra accent pal I spake the proper English

Id rather watch a team of youngsters getting stuffed every week, this is the nl remember

I've only seen a couple of Wolves meetings since 2009 when I nearly turned into one of them after 10 seasons of supporting the visitors. Luckily we came back in 2010 to save me!!!!!!!! Looking forward to the day, £18 for 30 heats and out the house all day. Superb

Was Michenek in the same league as Mauger,Olsen,Collins etc

Got to agree, whenever he came to Cradley he seemed to have this invincibility about him that few others had. This was mid 70s as well when the standard of the top riders was incredible

The price is the main problem, if it was £10 to ?12 I'd go to Cradley AND Wolves every week

My brother and a mate have both had 5 numbers, both were jumping about until the reality it them. 5 numbers doesn't change your life but another one would , they went from jumping about to being peed off even tho they had won money

Tbh when all said and done I reckon Ivan was the best ever when you combine all aspects of the sport, there was a time , 75? When he was almost unbeatable

Aldi beans are not as good as Heinz , Branston are ok tho. Some some stuff from Aldi ,Lidl is just as good but some stuffs unedible. In some cases you get what you pay for but it's also easy to get ripped off

Why book so early anyway there's always somewhere to stay and if you have a car you can stay a few miles away

Could Cradley and Wolves fans mixing be a problem? I think the problems we had the first few seasons with a few nutters has stopped but you only need one prat whose had a few drinks

And Doyle

Thanks for that, makes a bit more sense
