  1. Sad to see a team bringing in a World Class rider to replace an injured other World Class rider... Doesnt seem fair.....
  2. I have never seen so much Speedway coverage as I do now... However. The major companies wont get involved with it in the UK as it cannot be taken seriously... And you don't ever want to potentially damage your own brand by association with something that can be open to ridicule... If the sport went out to a wider audience not aware of the sport, via the BBC or ITV,, their first impression after watching it for a few weeks would be how coincidentally amazing it was that most teams seemed to have someone called Chris Harris rwpresenting them...
  3. No guests... Four best riders per team so no "make weights".. Four sets of fans in attendance usially meant a very decent crowd.. Used to be one of the best meetings of the season at Kirky Lane given the level of rider on show.. With a great day out at Peterborough for the final.. Obviously if they ran it now there would be hardly any of the above blueprint applied... And doing it with seven teams might be a struggle...
  4. I believe we should have had Richard Lawson... I mean Steve(ie):Worrall... Or Pete Smith.. Or naybe even Neil Middleditch... If we were truly serious about winning the SWC we would have.... I never actually realised until tonight on here,, that Championship HL's were as good as genuine World Class Speedway riders... Truly amazed every World Class rider doesn't make it his ambition to ride at Poole in the 2nd Division... A seamless transition to the GPs apparently... I would imagine that Magic tonight is so grateful he rode there...
  5. A fantastic nights Speedway.. Let's be honest... If GB had won it would make sod all difference to GB speedway as those who run it are clueless in promoting the achievement. . So let's just celebrate the fact we have 3 World Class riders....
  6. Brilliant effort from all the lads.. Tom and Adam gave it everything and can hold their heads up high.. Track, at last, worthy of the event.. And. Great to see Phil on TV so much.. Welll done Poland...
  7. See. You get it... Richard Lawson too, I have heard, would have guaranteed GB the Gold..
  8. Man of the Match for me... Deservedly so.... Seen more of him than the Polish team..
  9. Poland have an enormous advantage given their structure... GB did great...
  10. Fair play... A million miles from where we were... When Silver is a dissapointment you know how much we have moved forward... Personally, we should have used Dan earlier and put the Poles under pressure, as they often cannot handle it, especially in front of their home crowd... Well dome lads... And great for Magic after the SON in Manchester...
  11. Lambert to win... Magic to be third... Or break the tapes...
  12. Bartek did what Dan cannot do (yet).. Lock the bastard on the line when going at full pelt, and block your opponent..
  13. The phrase ryhmes with "clucking bell,".. Come on Dan Dont let him pass you up the inside bemd 3
  14. Why not Dan in two of the races? Has he had five already...?
  15. Dan in two.. Pick him for the best gate against the weakest Poles given they should pick first...
  16. A truly different level... Chalk and Cheese from the usual GB stuff.. You cannot be one percent off... Only riding at this level regularly gets you "battle hardened"...
