  1. I think his team didn't quite live up to his expectations but then again I'm a leszno fan and they didn't live up to buxtons expectations 😳
  2. no we have nothing like that in GB , here we have a team sport with no team identity that is down to the last hardcore supporters 🙁
  3. but they put up the money for the euro championship or are we talking about one being reasonable and the other not
  4. It's because 5+ 9-2 divided by a sunny day in 2003 and any other rubbish that speedway can come up with because it's too simple just to have an average with no ifs no butts that is there in black and white that can not be disputed by anyone and everyone understands , it's needs to be complicated because it's speedway
  5. he said they run out of beer and bottled water , no ticket reading machines so in theory just could of photocopied a ticket and got in ,what would of happened had German riders not had spare tyres? And who was to blame for the tyres no show , it wasn't an oversight ,fans bringing fireworks in , I've asked this before but I will ask again , why not gustrow ? To me this smacks of doing things on the cheap , maybe one sport should take over the GPs ? They seem to have fresh ideas and the sponsors to back their ideas , they just lack the prestige of the competition , they even have a logo for their product
  6. if that were the case why not say that before final 6 and when you do withdraw why say because it was taking to long but whatever the reasons lets here them
  7. Maybe the speedway star could give Jim McGregor a chance to tell his side and why he turned the job down , might be worth a read
  8. Talking to a friend who went , he said apart from the meeting itself the rest was a shambles and he said squashed like sardines in a tin for an hour and a half to get through 1 gate was beyond a shambles ,
  9. Don't understand polish but it says 20 zlotys , £4 ? Is that right ?
  10. to.be fair the opposition riders are given a hard time by the home fans , watching the final yesterday the home riders were waving to the fans but the gorzow riders kept their heads down after the race but at the end of the meeting the the home fans left the stadium and the 1000 away fans were kept back and all their team went over to them , as a measure of how much the opposition give riders a hard time , in the gorzow GP when Jason Doyle won , he walked back to the pits in front of us and he took some right abuse from 3/4 of the stadium simply as he rides for Zielona gora , no other reason ,
  11. I'll give you Warsaw but gorzow was 90% gorzow league fans and Torun is really popular with all the nations and that includes Brits , it just seems they back the SEC more than the GP , sponsors too
  12. The polish fans seem to support the SEC more than they do the SGP , is it a price thing ?
  13. Not sure it's the daftest but it was a bizarre one that had me puzzled , around 2002- 2005 I kept seeing in southern programmes I was referred to as the " Widnes whirlwind " no idea what it meant or where it came fromas I'd never been to Widnes in my life , I just got used to it for a couple of years .I decided to find out and asked Derek Barclay who was doing the programme notes at southern tracks , he informed me he thought I was from Widnes ? Why? Anybody who has met me (Derek had) knows I have a Black Country accent I think he said he got me mixed up with a relative of his wife ?, we still refer to it
  14. It's more than just cause it's leagle ,(Christ I'm banging my head against a brick wall )the issue in all this is how it's gets to this point , he achieves an average and that should be the end of it no ifs no buts it's an average and that's what he comes in at but in speedway that doesn't matter anymore cause he hasn't rode here for years , so what? That's his average , no grey areas that's it , the whole system is flawed and open to abuse , it's pathetic and that's what needs to be addressed and that will never happen while the same old faces and their sympathisers self rule , can't anybody within speedway see what all this crap is doing to the credibility of speedway ? I will enlighten you , it's killing it, I like Neil , he is a good man and he is exactly the person that the SCB "want"
  15. I didn't say Neil was a bad choice , I just wanted to know if anybody from outside the current circle was put forward so get off your high horse and don't assume
  16. ok the top 5 are all considered in the circle , were there any other candidates ?
  17. Did anybody on here or know of anybody who is not in the current speedway clique that applied for the job ?
  18. So who can pull off the biggest ringer for the playoffs , is Ole Olsen still availible ?
  19. I've been looking to get my Jap frame chromed and the prices are ridiculous , I've gone with a company in Walsall , it's cost me £325 for frame and forks but there is 6 week wait , some prices were double that and some just were not interested in doing it , I even tried a company in Poland but it was same price
