  1. Well done to the Witches... Must be favourites for a league and cup double given all the issues at the Aces and the Tigers? Be great to see Emil again at the NSS....
  2. Could keep it close then... Keep it no more than 10 and the Wroclaw crowd could play a major part in the 2nd leg..
  3. Oh dear.... Is it two tactical rides they can use? If so, their "top 3" could have 34 out of the 60 available over the two legs.. Should keep it close if so... The reserves will be very interesting, as all four have quality, well in advance of their years..
  4. And know that "guests" like we have over here would ruin that tribal rivalry that exists across the teams, which make so many meetings worth watching just for the atmosphere being created by the opposition fans. Fans who believe in "their team".... And the media, and therefore the sponsors too, would also retreat in their droves... The outcome? What we have over here, meetings getting cobbled together just so speedway can take place. With the inevitable apathy from many of those watching something "contrived"... Speedway has injuries (who knew?), but so do a great many other sports, and whilst the final may now be a one sided mismatch, there have been plenty one sided mismatches down the years in all sports when full strength teams have gone up against each other.. Maybe they could sign Robert Lambert? I believe it has happened over here before... Best of luck to Wroclaw, their reserves will need to be on fire, and you suspect so will Bewley, Laguta and Pawlicki.... Certainly not a bad trio to give it a go with though...
  5. I think most who go accept it is all a bit made up "Mickey Mouse bollocks".... But the spectacle itself can still be great to see... I get to see the best of both worlds when I go over to watch in Poland...
  6. And they watch the spectacle, like it, and follow their team, then start to get into the minutiae, then think.. "Bollocks to this"...
  7. A top level rider, in an era of greats... Saw him and PC have some cracking battles at Hyde Rd, with Gordon adopting a long track style of racing down the straights... RIP....
  8. Come on now, let's be fair... It is UK Speedway... All bans November to March... (Unless your season has finished earlier)....
  9. It doesn't really matter... Let "whoever" do "whatever"is needed.... Let's hope we get four decent semis... (,oo er missus), and a great Final... No matter how contrived the whole bollocks is... We can't spend all season "making it up as you go along" and then suddenly decide "we shoud have some credibility"... (Let's just hope those sanctimonious Wolves fans get sod all to celebrate..)
  10. Need to calm themelves down a bit.. Enough quality in the team to win, but throwing points away in desperate moves...
  11. I wonder what willl happen if the Wroclaw meeting doesnt take place and gets rescheduled for another night Redcar, or Belle Vue, are racing? The collaboration effort between Poland and GB looks like Poland saying, "We will do what we went, when we want, and for your compliance we will let you have some of our riders who either don't have the GP's to race in, or have finished their seasons and we don't need then anymore". Best of luck to Charles but whichever way you make it sound, it does just add another devaluation of the competitions over here doesnt he? As, if they were important, then this simply wouldn't happen... Hope he has a great play offs in all leagues but the one in Poland will clearly need to be his priority given the stakes involved... It will be a great experience for him hopefully and a shop window to put himself in for further opportunity in any of the leagues...
  12. Good news for the play offs. Doyle, Emil, (and probably Fricke) all in them... Will hopefully be back from hols on time to see Emil at the NSS...
  13. To contribute to this thread I have put on a tin foil hat when I type.. You never can be too careful..
  14. DURGS! JUST SAY NO!. Was written boldly on the side of a train holding shed just outside Picc station in Manchester in the eighties... I was on the way to Old Trafford and read it as I went past one Saturday on the way to the match... The following match I looked again to the see if the graffiti had been removed, it hadn't, and instead someone had added... DYSLEXIA JUST SAY ON!
  15. Joking apart, Shane Warne once got banned for taking them due to what is in them.. What an irony that would be....
  16. I think you will find it is just bananas that keep them doing 35 mph up and down mountains for six hours a day, covering over 200 miles... Nothing to see here, move along now please...
  17. Maybe testing their mental capacity due to them actually turning up and paying to get in might be more appropriate...
