  1. All this talk of points being awarded is silly, it won't happen without proof. Last time we saw that was when Belle Vue had their 'water leak'. While I understand people's frustration sums of the reactions on here are bordering on delerious. The truth will never be known, although there does seem a trend that any weather other than that which will get in the maximum crowd leads to a call off. All this will do is put off those travelling from afar or those floaters who aren't committed to going every week. One thing I will say is that there us always the feeling that the promotion aren't telling us everything with their statements.
  2. Been extremely windy all day in rural Norfolk and there are plenty of bits of tree laying around on exposed back roads, some big old bits. However the wind is nowhere near as strong now as it was and it does make you wonder if there is more to this than meets the eye. The first statement really should have mentioned the wind, poor PR once again.
  3. Coming up to see the in laws so going to this, can't wait. Big home win with loads of great racing please!
  4. Going to Belle Vue on Friday so glad to be seeing an exciting young Brit rather than the alternative, although best wishes to him for a speedy recovery.
  5. Seems like plenty of others are attempting to though.
  6. Fair do's. I think their problems run deeper than a new number one.
  7. Hes hardly going to turn up at tracks he's not ridden for years and go through the card, but with his ability to excite and with what he has achieved in his career he's a fantastic addition to the Championship.
  8. Underwhelming and farcical in equal measures. Look forward to an explanation from Mr Peasley.
  9. But if Poole signed him he would be by definition, and he'd be hard pressed to be worse than KK has been. Complete no brainer.
  10. That meeting started at 3pm yesterday? Surely could have got to Scunny today
  11. Have never understood this way of thinking. Whatever one thinks of any rider why would you cut your nose off to spite your if he improved your team? Bonkers.
  12. Sorry but the novice at number seven idea has to be maintained. Some will sink, some will swim but in the end it will improve riders quicker. For every JPB there is an Ellis Perks, Danyon Hume etc and generally it will work. The talent is there, it needs a means of being nurtured.
  13. You'd imagine he did, they aren't always effective enough. Anyway this had gone way past the point I was trying to make, which is that you would always want somebody who hates losing over someone who doesn't really care. I accept that the line between passion and knobbery .ca. be a thin one.
  14. Statman says on the updates that he was filled in for one of those races?
  15. Supply and demand, if somebody over here thinks he can help their business then great. We shouldn't stoop to Poland's level.
