  1. Can`t help but be impressed with the way this Berwick team have done this season, --fair play to them
  2. If im as thick as you say,may i ask why you continue to be proved wrong,Scunny have been granted a guest and David has pointed out the reason,all is as it should be yet you say we should have NL guest? surly the fact that David has come on here and explained and a guest is booked proves you are wrong!!!
  3. Totally agree,Bjerre is one of the best riders of the EWR around,good news he is going to ride,great entertainment
  4. Maybe you should also check the rain off fixture between Glasgow and Scunthorpe where RR was being used for both Howe and Piper Not that it has anything to do with you really but as Scunny have been granted a guest you are wrong!
  5. some of the lads i work with in Sweden really do speak very highly of him,give him a bit of time and he will be ok Ryan Douglas couldnt buy a point start of last year and is now near the 7 average mark
  6. you didnt answer my question....why would anyone want to go down the A18 when its totally rammed!!! If it is a red herring,why is it ok to use a guest? im sure if it wasnt a valid reason,a NL guest would be in for Howe Also a second reason is that it has be proved to the correct people that it is impossible make both meetings as flights etc dont work, so infact i believe there is two reasons a guest is allowed Just the same as the rained off meeting at Glasgow last month,the long track meeting Howe and Piper were in[Marmade i think] was rain off and raced on the Saturday and raced on the Sunday As it was re arranged,RR for both was granted Just avoid the A18 at all cost!!!
  7. Why would anyone want to go on the A18 when that is the where the hold ups is?? got to be the worst advice i heard,it is taking 3hrs to get from Crowle turning to Keadby bridge!!!
  8. Simple just keep going on the M62 until the humber bridge,go over that[which im told is now free to clear the hold ups] once over humber bridge take first excit on to round about the 3rd turn on the round about to Winterton 10-15mins later you will be at the EWR i think on your way home the normal way is open and all clear
  9. Im not sure how much proper cheating actually goes do yes we have all seen a rider all off and take a sneaky look,rolling starts,blasting through the tapes etc but isn`t that all part of the game ' Proper cheating" use of drills,bigger engines odd squirt of Nitro etc has i`m sure been done in the past but i`m not sure how much this goes on really One thing that did make me think though is i took a bit of a petrol head to a Scunny meeting a few months ago and he asked me if riders used nitro,,,,when i replied no and asked why he replied " cos i can smell it!!!! if it was a Scunny rider it didnt do much good as we lost!!!
  10. That is simply not true The Premier League was never involved,offered,discussd any FTR, its was and is an idea born from the EL promotions looking to save money And when you look back over the year the PL is a FTR anyway,but just like the one in the EL at the moment,not all make it Lets be honest,if the fast track was what it meant to be do you think you would have the like of Ben Hopwood,Lee Smart,Brendan Johnson and Danny Hasley in it??? Riders like that will never make the Premier League grade never mind anywhere beyond it
  11. But they cant get places in Sweden or Poland because they arnt good enough A chap said to me the other day that when you look at a British riders style,its all wrong and he is right Take a head on picture of Emil,Holder,Darcy,PUK etc,coming down the straight,it looks like a proper,fast comfortable style then take the same picture of the Next generation,Masters,Fricke,Douglas,MBJ,MJJ, ETC and again,poetry in motion Now take same picture of Cook,Nielsen etc,all to cock on the bike,up right position,legs all over the place,awfull We simply dont have the ability of rider with the mental application to make it,with the odd exception They have all spend to long learning how to ride speedway on tight pokey little dumps,turning the bike,up right position,shutting off to enter the corner etc Stick them on the big fast open tracks where the speedway Big events seem to take place these days and they simply get found out
  12. So it pishing with rain and you dont no when it will stopTrack already has standing water on it All riders agreed best to call it a day Ref agrees track is water logged Rain falling in all over supporter catchment area No one will turn up to watch 50/50 if started it wouldnt finish you still think it should have gone ahead??
  13. As long as we continue to ride around pokey little tracks playing second fiddle to Football and greyhounds we we never win an egg cup....Top level speedway now seems to be run on the big fast open tracks and we simply dont have the class,balls or machinery to do it Harsh but true
  14. Think you answered your own question about the 3rd bend....water runs down to it from along way away...so a cover wouldnt make rats ass of difference...water runs down hill..always has and always will and you mention all these times of rain stopping..with the aid of hindsight.When the call was made it was pissing down and i did look set in for the night
  15. Hell of of tough test for Scunny this,i like the Berwick team,similar make up to Scunny,could be a cracker of a meeting
  16. if you added banking the riders would end up in either Hull or Aberdeen ,depending which end they came off at!
  17. How odd!!Proctor gets one straight away,Klindt gets one straight away yet King doesnt?
