  1. Tens of thousands, who still follow the sport closely, have asked that very question over the years... Only problem was, the "guests" never turned up...
  2. A Peterborough Manager "guests" for King's Lynn, whilst his team ride at Wolves.. Whilst a Witches rider, who cannot ride for Ihis own team, "guests" for Peterborough, the team whose Manager is "guesting" for King's Lynn.. An official statement has been put out though I believe... It simply says... "Please, please, please come and watch this nonsense we continually serve up to you".... "Oh. And we almost forgot".. "Bring a friend as well".......
  3. I am sure if he isnt then we will be told well in advance of paying our money to watch... About 7:59 my bet......
  4. I wonder why the sport doesnt have any major sponsors?
  5. Presume it must be to deliver the Polish quota per team?.. The barrel is being certainly scraped if so..
  6. Grrrrrr.... Getting passed up the inside.... At least make the better riders work to pass you... And why have Leszno signed Miedzinski...? Is there really no one better..?
  7. There was a very good reason the vast majority had Brum bottom of the league in the predictions... And it wasnt the manager . The only way tactically he could make a difference is if Brum were the only team allowed to ride for double points using a black and white helmet colour.. In every heat.... A classic example, like Newcastle and Eastbourne, of a club with an NDL crowd level masquerading as a CL team.. Is it promoter ego that does such things? You are where you are in the pecking order, because of what level you actually are at... Zero point in being something you are not..
  8. "We want Premiership Heat Leaders doubling down"... "Not second strings like used to happen"...
  9. Hope the BV crowd doesnt impact the Citeh parade numbers....
  10. I heard that his ankle actually "fell off" and that the Polish doctors (who seem much, much, much better than ours), were able to sew it on again for him... With no lasting issues.. "As goodski as newski Brady", was what he was told.. As Turkey seems to be the place to get your teeth "done" nowadays, Poland is obviously the place to get injuries fixed in record time which defy all previous medical history and knowledge..
  11. Need the two Russian lads in this to make it interesting.... Artem and Emil would give Bartek a challenge. .. Nobody else in this field will...
  12. Freddie does realise that this is not a Polish League match doesn't he?
  13. I personally think the racing is as good as any era I have watched in, and better than most.. I can though watch a meeting not caring who wins which may help... Looking forward to watching Laguta at the NSS, and if he gets an 18 max I am sure it will be great to watch.. Looking forward to Emil going to the NSS again too.. Will attend domestic Speedway more this year than I have for years, given the riders we now have..
  14. Quite possibly.. The Poles do seem light years ahead of the UK when it comes to Speedway rider injury cures...
  15. A bit strange Brady did Ht15 on Monday if injured.. Dan could have done it instead surely? Anyhow, a great chance for the Stars to win given Brady's consistency and capability nowadays.. Just a shame for the KL crowd they wont get to see him ride as he is becoming a real entertainer... A bit of an old fashioned throwback to when Captains rode hard and led from the front...
  16. Hope your'e not doing the "team talk" GUAB?
  17. Heat 15 with four Aussies was good... Mayne they should hold an Australian Championship round at the NSS as they all seem to fly around there...
  18. Some cracking racing... Track staff did a great job given the dry, slightly windy conditions.. Track had both an inside and outside line which allowed passing.. Not seen Doyle so down on power before, even when leading the Aces riders he was blocking them more than moving further away from them.. Lidsey, Rew, Kurtz, Bewley and Emil absolutely top class entertainment... And Charles Wright did a "special" in Ht 14 to block pass Rew brilliantly.. Proper "hard riding" as Emil had done to Kurtz earlier.. One gripe is the No7's.. No disrespect but why are these lads riding in the top league? Can't be good for them.. They need ring fenced positions in Div 2 as they often dont bring much to the meetings other than racing against themselves.. Run in the topl flight with six man teams and share out the money not spent on the 7th roder on the six that do.. No other sport makes it compulsory to include "youth team" level competitors to go up against world class level opponents, so in such a technical, specialised sport as Speedway it makes it even more of a poor idea.. Norick once again continues to impress and is developing nicely, and Ben Barker rode his whatsits off as usual for minimal rewards.. You would certainly not feel £24 is too much to watch entertainment like this.. Roll on next week to watch Artem...
  19. Hopefully many will still rock up and attend.. Luckily I pick and choose who to watch so dont fork out for each meeting.. Been to the PCMM and the opening Sheffield match which were both good meetings.. More of the same tonight would mean a decent evening out... Laguta next week too so someone else worth paying to see..
