Refuse collection in Brum has been awful for so long now I wonder if it will ever get sorted out permanently. The operatives are a militant bunch & have been for 30 years or more, I say this as someone who lived & worked in the area for all of this time & have seen the problems first hand.

That's brilliant, I'd already sent my email using the "old fashioned method"๐ . Every message to the council will count . i am just getting the impression that we could see Brandon back up & running again in the not too distant future, fingers crossed.

Thanks. I couldnโt get any sense from my computer when i tried ๐๐

There's a new update from the savecoventryspeedway group on their website. For some reason i don't seem to be able to add a link here. The message sounds quite positive & they are asking for fans support via email or post to help the cause. If anyone could provide a link to the item it would be a great help.

Well there's an old adage that states that " you can twist numbers around in order make your point". The track record at Sheffied is currently under 59 seconds,& that was set in May24, which suggests bikes do go faster these days. Hans would have been a long way behind in that race with his 61.4๐

looks more like Oxford to me

First time abroad
Dave Jones replied to Preston Comet's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
It certainly is, & has been for many years.. Over all my years of visiting the city I have seen so many incidents , after a while it becomes relatively easy to spot the criminals as they all conduct themselves in a similar manner. -
First time abroad
Dave Jones replied to Preston Comet's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I think for any first time visitor it's essential to go to the Prague 1 zone . So much history to see ,Prague Castle, Old Town Square, Charles Bridge to name just a few. Anyone who doesn't go there is wasting their trip to what is a wonderful city. -
Arise, Sir Chris Harris
Dave Jones replied to Hamish McRaker's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
He's also a bit of a "thug" who has very little respect for others,he is just one of several successful sportsmen who show total disregard for the rules & the people involved in the sport that gives them their living. Ronnie O'sullivan & Max Verstappen are two more examples. -
Eurosport, terrible professionalism.
Dave Jones replied to Odds On's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Quite possible , Eurosport have some sports that I'm sure get good viewing figures,snooker as an example,which is very popular & they will have to be accommodated somewhere else. -

When Discovery bought BT Sports I'm pretty sure they stated that the Eurosport channel would disappear in 2026. I would expect anything they wish keep would be transferred to Discovery + so if they retain uk speedway it would mean signing up for streaming I would imagine. -
I know,no point flogging a dead horse though.๐

I think it might be best to leave this here

Well Iโll help you a little,Sandhu hadnโt been the owner of the stadium for a while prior to its closure. So it was not his decision to shut it down which makes your previous comments incorrect. Thereโs much more to this which you obviously do not understand
-
I think it might be a good idea if you got yourself a little more informed on what has happened at Coventry judging by your last couple of posts.
-
Well I was at the 1993 worldfinal in Pocking & Sam's win very fortunate to say the least. He did have a habit of falling off ,& I think many fans would agree Monmore was a trick track.So a pretty accurate assessment in my opinion.

Has he been told to go straight-a- way?๐

โ Verbal agreements not worth the paper theyโre written onโ Thatโs a new one on me. ๐ -
Time to sack Phil Morris?
Dave Jones replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I woudn't worry about it too much if I were you, there's nothing in it . It's just Pottering Around's sense of humour going into overdrive๐. I wouldn't mind betting that a fair few forum members would have been taken in by it initially as we all know the people that "run" this sport are just awful at what they do & capable of anything.๐๐ -
The most dangerous riders
Dave Jones replied to Youhave2minutes's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I agree, he's only been registered on the forum 5 minutes yet he's posting like he's been on here for years. Probably yet another with more than one nom de plume.๐ -
I didn't think anyone who watches speedway would forget the second leg of the play off final 2010 at Poole where bomber got up off the deck to go out & win the rerun & helped the bees win the title, then the subsequent turmoil it caused during the winter of discontent, a huge turning point for British Speedway IMO & I don't mean for the better.

There's a very good trackman at the NSS, who was taught by a very very good trackman.๐ -

Dave Jones replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I was wondering if there was a Wi-Fi outage on the south coast as this topic is extremely quiet today.๐
