  1. I know i missed it when Bombay became Mumbai and I missed the changeover from Rumania to Romania, so when did Loktajev become Lokoksiev?
  2. Smoli looks to be safe now, given his opponents in ht 20, surely
  3. rubbish happens. Harris has been knocked out, got back into the Challenge and qualified in previous years I think
  4. Maybe people from Finland who stock up on cheap trainers and alcohol before going to the meeting
  5. Last nights Pfingstpokal from Güstrow, won by Bellego with Robert Lambert 2nd watched by 8,000 fans
  6. Speedway Challenge Junior meeting, Güstrow 07.06.2019
  7. Liam having a hard time at the moment. Carrying an injury from a few days ago, he rode at Güstrow last night and had 2 falls and pulled out of the meeting. Fellow countryman McGuinness managed 6 prs in a meeting won by Artjom Trofimovs in front of a decent crowd for a junior meeting of 1300
  8. Gilgenreiner was German Speedway championing 1980 and was part of the bronze medal German team in the 1981 WTC final
  9. Talk about a closed shop and Robert Lambert in the same breath !!! What is the answer then stop the best riders getting in so we have some new faces who aren’t good enough just for the sake of it? Do we ask Liverpool and Real Madrid to put out their reserves next year so they don’t do well and lesser teams qualify ..,..
  10. https://m.sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/823567/im-danii-niespodzianka-w-polfinale-rasmus-jensen-najlepszy-w-brovst
  11. Saw Moi some years ago on 80cc and he was quite exciting, but hasn’t done a lot on 500cc. Fredricksen is the younger(I think) and better Norwegian rider
  12. Sounds like big problems in Outrup. Crash in the first heat due to track conditions and a couple of hours delay trying to sort the problem out.... Now called off!!!!
  13. The film premiered in Haderslev (Hadersleben) last weekend.A piece about it in the German North Schleswig paper. Woyens is of course Vojens in German https://nordschleswiger.dk/de/nordschleswig-hadersleben/kongernes-fald-lauter-legenden-gala-im-kosmorama
  14. Wouldn’t one league raise the amount of meetings per season? And that would be the reason I suspect that top riders would drop out. I mean the likes of Bech, Michelsen or such like are hardly top names but have gone
  15. The meeting was cut short due to bad weather. Anyone can look at Egon Müllers video report on Facebook and see the conditions for practice and also the riders meeting to decide whether to start the meeting or not.
  16. See the Inn Isar team have stopped working with Hans Weber. Sounds like there is more to the story reading between the lines. They will continue to work with Jell
  17. Yes all getting a bit mixed up what with longtrack and Danish Final stuff being posted on strange threads and that from one of the forum policemen !!’ And he tries to give me a lecture..,,
  18. Thought Fjelsted was on the island Fyn, which is part of South Denmark , but not Jutland
  19. As I said Mr Rising, who is more of a media expert than either you, me or even Martin Rogers dare I say puts that scandal up there as the main reason the media interest dropped off. And in general unless you are Stock Cars, media interest plays a major factor in the success or failure of a sport. Ask any decent sports promoter or retail boss Darts and Snooker flourished at a time speedway was failing. Cycling for instance had a lot of problems because of their scandal. It isn’t just down to immediate falls in attendances, but lack of sponsorship etc from large companies or medium and speedway is left with local hairdressers and builders
  20. Over reaction yet again. Nobody said it was his fault. He played a big part in the scandal that hit the newspapers back in the 80s. Even Phil Rising has stated the media didn't really want to touch speedway after that as a genuine sport.
