Pedersens reception at Cardiff
Splatty replied to Noodles's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
call me pathetic but I like the idea of the fans making the statement to Nicki that the meeting officials and no doubt the governing body have failed with -

In today's Daily Mirror there is a 'sports short' on how Chris Louis is one of 3 shortlisted for the wild card. It should give an indication of the way the choices are going - can't be too good for Danny Bird either -
Who's going to Prague?
Splatty replied to Splatty's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Sorry to hear you didn't have much fun - I can see how the GP could be a bit pants for some - ours was a bit up and down but worth the entrance for the atmosphere alone that wouldn't be the bar outside the entrance would it? Thats where I got groped ????? In some ways the rain delay will make it special when I look back -

I think you'll find you are on the sky coverage if you can get hold of a tape Raquelle - I remember thinking 'where did she get that' when I saw you - VERY disappointed with the merchandise at the ground - all the same usual stuff - Polish Polish Polish - all I could get hold of was a big and stupid England hat which looked like it was polish anyway! With all that rain I think we were very lucky to get a meeting at all -

Looks about right to me Tabby - just hope that Bomber and David can pull things around otherwise we will have to wait even longer for the 'new crop' -

Referees decisions
Splatty replied to Star Lady's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
agreed he was a good ref - he is listed in the Prague program as being 'Grand Prix Secretary' - how ironic is that? good post and welcome to the forum - i've noticed liberties being taken with all 4 back increasingly and it is another area which can only make a mockery of the sport. -

after watching the first two hours of the gp (i.e. no racing!) on tape I can see how ridiculous this comment was and it really is time to get to the opticians and start drinking soft drinks -

never made the bobsleigh but still had a good time - don't know about you guys but have had enough of the beered up stag do brits and will leave it a couple of years to come back good to meet Whackie and Rico (I knew that Rockets jacket would pay off ) JY2003,beercellar, raquelle - where were you?! great track - shame about the 'cutting' but feeling lucky that the meeting went ahead at all! -
GP Predictions Round 2 - Prague
Splatty replied to Lioness's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
well have got back from the very very wet wet meeting and am a bit (hiccup) drunkshhh but I will do my best. First off I have to say what a load of professionally paid bunch of woosies to vote in favour of cutting off the top of a track that was rideable and looking like it would create lots of drive after a few heats - I can only imagine who voted in favour - and im sure it wasn't tomasz or mark! Looking forward to seeing the replays of the 3rd bend all 4 backs (lol!) - and the exclusion of Nicki (a case of the boy who cried wolf?) felt very sorry for Mark who would certainly have excelled in the 'pre-cut' conditions and adopted Bo 'miraculous' Brehl' as my favourite rider on the night - always good value on the night met some top fans - nice danish fans to our right - top glaswegians to our left - v happy mancunians below us and the mad Ipswich crew in front of us (who were getting their tops off at every opportunity!) Almost ended up in a fight with a german fan at the beer stall - I know its not behaviour becoming a speedway fan but I felt I had to fight my gf's honour after hours before he had behaved disgracefully and racistly towards her on the tram to the stadium with his beered up mates ( a theme in Prague - be warned for next year!) - fortunately he went away with his tail between his legs or I might have had to put my money where my mouth is! also had a bizarre encounter with a polish fan called marius in the bar before the meeting - needless to say he'd had a few and a couple of drinks later after trying to grope both me and the gf he was led away by his mate with my Rockets cap firmly on his head (anything for a bit of advertising!) Glad that Jason won, Ryan made the final and Leigh didn't make the final (to keep it close) sad that Mark got a raw deal, rain fell after two days of sun here (!!) and Bo can't be world champ very pleased to meet (a beered up) Whackie and Kev at the beer stall (where did you go later on? - I looked for you) and Rico and Davey on the tram - not to mention Ernie from Swindon and the main guy behind Trelawny (who I never caught the name of) also at the beer stall (I was there a lot eh?! ) don't think i'm going to drink as much at the next GP as it helps to be able to remember what you have just seen -
Referees decisions
Splatty replied to Star Lady's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
can anyone clarify for me how the 2x3rd bend all 4 backs looked on camera? - ridiculous decisions - I thought all 4 back on bend 2 is stretching the rules a bit - let alone 3! -

superb Rob thanks well i'll be looking out for red and white streaked hair and an eastbourne t shirt then! I'll probably be wearing my Rye House Speedway jacket and a suitably stupid sport tourists Union Jack hat or something - with an inane drunken grin
