DSC67

Overall it was a decent competition with some great racing in the final stages . But the format needs to be changed. You can't have a final that encourages riders not to win a " final " , after two days of racing and 40 + heats the team with the most points should win IMHO , maybe it's all about building excitement and ensuring that the meeting does fizzle out like a damp squib . Well done to Great Britain an excellent performance and one in the eye for the doom and gloom merchants, many there is some light at the end of the tunnel . I'd like to think that the competition won't be an annual thing maybe alternative years with the WTC also it needs to be moved around the nations and not based in Poland all the time , personally I'd like to see a return to some proper 7 man test matches on a home and away basis but I don't see it happening any time soon .

You should use that quote on trip advisor

Stewart Dickson ?

I also feel that Rosco leaving was part of Woffys reason for returning

Will Great Britain have a new team manager for next years competition?

??

Someone would need to explain to KT what team riding is as he wasn't know for it

Are Muir Templeton & Mick McCluskey still ridding

Not the most exciting meeting so far

Don't clubs have to have a certain value of rider assets on their books ?

I think he's at Berwick quite often on a Saturday night

Are the other clubs paying their dues to each other on time, ? with no home gate money coming in it's important that they get the money that's due from the away matches

Depending on the terms of the deal , but if a club doesnt want a rider the next season the the club he's on loan to has first option

People have been moaning about the asset system since the 70's )and probably before that too ) , so don't hold your breath for it changing anytime soon

That's been the problem with Ben wherever he's been , when he's good he's great to watch , I love his guts or glory style , but there always seems to be another problem just around the next corner for him

I'm glad I recorded this and watched it when I got home from Berwick, after four heats I was bored and ready to switch off if I'd been watching live I'd probably have been channel hopping. There where a couple of decent heats but not an awful lot too get excited about Ionly hope Tuesday is an improvement . I fast forwarded through all the drivel so never really heard Stadler & Waldorf get confused about the scores , deleted it straight away after watching it certainly not a meeting I'd want to se again. Watched the far more IOM TT highlights afterwards so at least some of tv viewing was enjoyable

If they refuse to ride they'd get banned, better to ride under protest , of course that is IF these unconfirmed rumours are true

Good strong performance from Berwick last night with everyone getting in amongst the points, shame about the 15 though, I'd liked to have seen 60 points on the board but I guess that's just getting picky. I thought Ludo was very disappointing that's probably one of the worst performances I've seen from an opposing No1 in a long time and Ashley had a night he won't want to remember, on the positive side Tero had a great night and Nico putin a decent shift sometimes guests don't always work but The Diamonds can have no complaints about him . Tonight will be a totally different prospect though and I'd imagine Newcastle will be looking for quick revenge for that drubbing.

How's the weather looking ?

Its a crazy situation to get into , Saturday night and no speedway is a complete waste to me , especially as we head in to the height of summer and the school holidays having loads of blank dates , fans will drift away and find something else .

And you too

Can't afford the bus fare from Cornhill and it's too far for a motability scooter

Free sports is on Channel 422 on sky

The time to worry is when he starts arguing with himself

After his spill in ht 2 ( which thankfully he walked away from ) I'd say John will be needing a new bike
