Or even the Kings Lynn tickets, after eventually finding them, so that's 2 who didn't pay on the night.

Does that mean he has to pay to get in like the rest of us?

Was that when I was talking to the Poole lot? By the way if you only saw one dog then I'd lost one because they were both there last night.

Be amazed no longer because Hans was definitely there and came a very poor last in his first ride. In his second he was unfortunately knocked off by Max Fricke and took no further part in the meeting. I don't know what his injuries are, if any, but I'm sure they'll be a good excuse for Poole to bring someone else in. As for Holder ~ taking the p*** as he doesn't like the Leicester track.

Looking at the two teams on paper heaven knows ~ I'll have to take my 40 year old Lions scarf again. Still not discovered Robert72 but did have a nice chat with Steve Shovlar, Shale Shifter and Pirate Nick. It must have been a disappointing day for them with the team's defeat at Belle Vue as well but I still think Poole will be champions. We'll see.

Yes, me too. I should think Poole will win by 15 at least. I'm all grown up now unfortunately and on the slope down to you know where. Anyway, why are you so touchy? You're a Wolves supporter and the World Champion is back, it's almost play off time so I thought you'd be more interested in watching the Wolves in their last few matches. You've got all Winter to practise when there is no Speedway to go to. No offence intended.

Does that mean you'll be at Monmore Green tomorrow or Stoke?

Thanks very much. I rely on seeing your post to watch the G.P's. Much appreciated thank you.

Which probably explains why Peterborough have just made four.

They probably don't though because they usually taste vile. More likely contain water or fizzy pop but the sponsors are happy because it's their name being shown. Edited to add the quote as we're on a new page.

Rory dropped then. What are the thoughts of Stars fans?

They'll probably get their chance next season then.

Oh well I've managed to find the safe place I put my Kings Lynn rain off tickets now so at least I won't have to pay to watch half a team.

Hopefully a few of the Poole riders won't make it then.

True, but when giving riders scores it's usually the total from 4/5 rides or whatever, plus the bonus points, so in my programme it was 14 + 2 not 16, so the two previous posters are correct. Those spectacular 'untidy angles' as you call them made for some terrific passes on the second bend last night so I'd rather he rides how he does now thank you.

She'd like Kacper Woryna then as he often does wheelies even if he hasn't won the race. Strangely enough he gets stick from some for doing that. There's nowt so weird as Speedway folk.

Unfortunately David Hemsley. If it had been left to Sam Ermolenko it would have been different but while he had to return to the USA for a while his plans were ditched and the work started.

Agreed and that is the whole point. Calling matches off the day before ~ in this case very early on Friday morning ~ based on the weather forecast is just not on. The match on Saturday wasn't due to start until 8pm so plenty of time on the day to call it off if necessary.

Glad you got your hat back again. Quick wash and it will be as right as rain.

I sometimes wonder why he bothers as 9 times out of 10 questions aren't asked in a polite manner but just negative abuse to the promoters. Against the forum rules but it seems anything goes on here these days. I can't remember if Peter Toogood used to post but he certainly used to mingle with the fans on the terraces at Swindon when he was promoter there. Of the present day ones David Hemsley does quite a bit of mingling at Leicester but in restricted areas at the moment.

Would that be Grace Road or in Beaumont Leys? As the Crow flies I'm probably about 4 miles from the stadium and not one drop of moisture fell apart from very early morning I'm told when I was still in bed. (Thank goodness Liontamer isn't around or that could get a response.)

Let's hope that weather forecast turns out to be correct. Incidentally whilst we're on the subject of this match it just shows how you can't trust anyone official to tell the truth if it's against their interests. In this week's Speedway Star team manager Norrie Allan states 'On Saturday they had the Arsenal match at 5.30pm and we were already looking at a bad weather forecast. I think it would have been off anyway as apparently the weather did turn out to be poor on Saturday.' Well, sod me I must have imagined that the sun was shining all day and no sign of any rain. It was also very windy and that would have done a good job drying the track out if they'd have bothered to go ahead, so I wonder where he got that bit of information from.

But of course it could not be the 'real' Darcy Ward so we are none the wiser. Lives in Poole ~ well he doesn't does he?

I think Bomber must have had the most amount of changes to his pit crew over those 6 years than any other rider. Surely one of them could have sorted him out. I like Chris and it's great being able to see him at Coventry but I think the time has come for him to accept that he's just outclassed in G.P's and bow out gracefully at the end of the season.

Well, at least you've got something in common ~ you're both rubbish at predicting results. Edited to add well done Swindon.
