King's Lynn Vs Sheffield 06.07.23
Bagpuss replied to StarBoy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Buster said straight away that the team was over budget so any guest will be bargain basement, that's a given. Sheffield to score somewhere between 50 and 60 I expect. -
Jason Edwards apparently.
-
Not really, there are some fresh views in there and some good reasoning for them. What's your suggestion out of interest?
-
Pleased for Jason if he gets the chance, he's a good lad.

Bagpuss replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Apologies, I'd forgotten that the Championship were doing the superheat this season -
30.06.2023 - League - Scunny v Oxford
Bagpuss replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
You feel that Oxford have missed a trick a little bit there. -
My God Jorgensen is dire.

World Cup - Wroclaw July 2023
Bagpuss replied to Monarchs2468's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I just feel that if you expose any rider who doesn't ride in Poland currently and /or hasn't done much in the past they will get absolutely devoured at Wroclaw, a track where there is absolutely nowhere to hide. Ellis has been a regular on the continent for years and Brennan has quite a bit of Polish experience as well as riding BV every week. As good as the averages for Lawson, Worrall, Wright etc are in the UK I think they would be put to the slaughter. Bomber is the only other option really but I just don't see him having the speed unless he can sneak a longtrack bike in -
World Cup - Wroclaw July 2023
Bagpuss replied to Monarchs2468's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Got to be Ellis and Brennan for me. -
It was 2009 And it was bulbs in the floodlights And Lynn weren't injury ravaged (bar a knock or two) but badly out of form Other than that you're spot on (especially the last bit) The highlight of that season though was the Muppets theme tune on parade
-
I thought he rambled a bit. Can't be easy being interviewed straight after losing your first meting by 40.
-
You can have guests for any of your top three.
-
Amazing the difference it makes when you get rid of the berms and craters
-
So only wanted to ride the four 'big' tracks? Wonder if that was him or Wroclaw who decided that.
-
And that's British speedway as a whole to be fair.
-
Believe me it's not been much above zero since Holdergate but even though I don't go that often I'm no longer paying 22 quid to a club run in this manner. It's been a sh itshow for too long now.
-
So Harris for Laguta and Morris for MPT. My enthusiasm has finally eroded down to zero. Don't tell us fibs about injuries, if Laguta can't be afforded or Wroclaw don't want him riding here or at Monmore then tell us the truth. The club needs a massive overhaul in the winter, a brand new approach from top to bottom and running at a level we can prosper at whatever that is. No wonder crowds are dismal.

Gorzow GP Saturday 24th June 2023
Bagpuss replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
For me it is, the whole point of the GP's is to crown a world champion and at the moment unless Zmarzlik sustains an injury its a foregone conclusion, for me that takes an awful lot of the shine off it. -
Redcar Vs Plymouth 23rd June league
Bagpuss replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I quite agree......unless you are there when a super heat takes place, in which case its not nonsense and actually quite exciting. -
A Play Off ringer! Who knew

One pillock makes it up somewhere and people go with it. Usual BSF/social media stuff.

Gorzow GP Saturday 24th June 2023
Bagpuss replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I'm not going to sit here and say that it was much better 15-20 years ago because it probably wasn't but the series is definitely lacking something at the moment. Knowing who the winner is going to be before the series starts is the main issue, not Zmarzlik's fault that he is miles ahead of anyone else but it removes all the jeopardy. Too many poor racetracks which to be fair has long been an issue but its frustrating that there are much better tracks not being used even if we all appreciate why. And probably a lack of characters and racers as mentioned. -
Absolutely but unfortunately when the bloke financing the team walks out halfway through the season there isn't much you can do other than patch things up. Apart from pray that Laguta sees the year out. I'd also suggest that replacing Edwards with Rowe isn't consistent with giving up.
