THE DEAN MACHINE

jeez Phillip I really haven't got that much time on my hands 😳 isn't that sort of thing what should be happening at bspa towers 😉 Do away with averages , teams can sign any top 5 but must include 1 Brit and the reserves must be 2 under 21 Brits

I've just done a rough count of riders , there were 114 riders who rode in the top 2 leagues this year and around 60 that ride national league alone ,one big league of 18 teams of 5 =90 riders needed (surplus of 24 riders ) + 2 under 21 British reserves who can double up to make the teams , this doesn't take in to account any foreign riders who would like to ride over here and there are some , it can be done and should be done and all those who say not enough riders I've just got cramp from writing all the names down just to prove it can happen

cant vote on my own poll mate

I'm running a poll on twitter today to gauge opinion on doubling up/down if you would like to vote , yes it should be scrappped , no it should remain or only for British under 21s . Please vote and retweet 👍🏻@deanfelton1

I do get the star every week for as long as I can rembember ,well i have been in it enough times I feel I owe it to them 😉It's the only magazine or newspaper I read

suprised said riders didn't blame nicki pedersen for the crash

his average in Poland isn't to bad either

i copied this off twitter tonight , Deep breath needed : Belle vue are using Bjerre because Worrall is riding for Newcastle who are using King as a guest for Lambert because Lambert is riding for Kings Lynn, they also have Newman guesting for Robson because Robson is riding for Rye House who are without Harris because he is riding for Peterborough who are using Schlien for Holder because he is riding for Poole who are using R/R for Starke because he is riding for Peterborough

I still attend a few national league meetings at buxton and stoke and go to a few GPs and polish meetings but haven't attended a prem or championship meeting all season unless I've been working there even though I have one on my doorstep

obviously nothing is wrong in your eyes and the sport is just thriving in this country and the concerns of a good majority of fans both on here and in general don't matter so let's just stay as we are and race on a Monday and just forget about team speedway altogether it's not important and enjoy fans flocking back to the sport

I've added the word decision just for you

its also difficult to afford any credibility when someone distorts the point being made , you know damn well the point I was making

the PGE are trying to stop them riding elsewhere because they don't see why they should employ them and then they ride for someone else and although their stance hurts British speedway from their point of view it's the right thing to do but we are talking about doubling up here , it's a joke and you can try to justify it all you like but it's one of the major decision disasters that's happened in our sport in the last 20 years

I'm told that there is people who will finance a track but surely these people would want 100% control if it ever came to fruition , I know I would if it was my money , they are jumping the gun on a lot of issues and now it is starting to backfire

from what I'm told it was not valid and has got to be resubmitted but the mood has changed in the trust , there was genuine optimism a month ago , now it's gone ,in Mr beniforms own words there is infighting within the trust although he can't see he is the cause of most of it

it his other dressing up that concerns me more

but isn't that the nature of the beast , when I was crap I was replaced , I didn't like it but as one door closed another opened but nobody has the god given right to be a speedway rider

his comments are not detrimental to cradlleys plite , it's his behaviour and while some may see it as being a "Lad" or a "lady" are the council going to think favourably towards him ??

for me the f2 is the perfect idea but the reality is far from it , I did a day riding the f2s to see for myself if they are the answer to speedways cost , I found they were way to complicated and pretty unreliable and riding wise they are awful as the flywheels are to small for speedway and if your thinking of an entry bike for beginners then a cg125 road engine is a lot cheaper alternative

I have that appetite in general ,I can service speedway engines and can spot any change on a bike even on tv , I have read books like "tuning for speed" and I am what you would call a geek when it comes to transit Diesel engines but when it comes to speedway it just doesn't matter ,it's all about the riders ,I dream of a sport with equal engines where tuners don't matter and it's all about the riders but sadly we are getting further and further away from that and all it's doing is pushing up costs , it's completely different to Moto GP where the bike is king ,

he tends to spout his venom about speedway on speedway friends page or national league page but I think as you can see from his FB page what sort of person he is , there is more that's happened recently but I can't say on here but safe to say it doesn't put the trust in good light , he is a liability to the trust and should be kicked out of the trust and that is a view shared by some of them but it seems not all

I said name the top 2 tuners not some tuners as surely if fans were interested they would know that pjr has been knocked of his top spot and has been replaced by 2 others

yes so imagine what the council will think if they see that and they will if they haven't already

when we turned up with the German dogbone engines this year some people had questions but most had heard about GTRs and thought it was a GTR but the majority didn't even notice or care , what they did notice was Adam wasn't scoring enough points on it , even Adam wasn't using them to push technology , he was using them as part of a good business plan , unfortunately the engines were unreliable so the plan fell through yes some are but the majority especially the female fans couldn't care less

riders are interested but fans are not
