Just out of interest, Ove, who is now 93 and no.1 on the list has just been for a motor bike ride, starting from his home in Tranås Sweden, first to Karlskrona for an overnight ferry to Gdynia Polen, made a short break in Mragowo, then to Kaunas and a night stay, next Vilnius and Riga, where he had planned to spend the night, but the forecast was for a bad rainstorm the next day so he carried on to Tallin. He then woke up to terrible rain and got to the ferry terminal very wet for the ferry to Stockholm He said afterwards, "After a most enjoyable trip I loved every minute on the bike. Now I am home and my wife Ioana is happy as she worries when I am away on my bike ride." Just to repeat - he is now 93 years old!

What exactly does your shocking and woeful display of scientific ignorance have to do with Ipswich speedway?

I think the announcement is that tomorrow night's meeting has been postponed in case it rains.

And then there was Nicki Pedersen.....

Yes, but they are only "half decent". Lindgren is fully decent.

I always did prefer watching the adverts….

How's that track prep going?

Jack Young.

Dream on. Sorry, that is a bit of an obscure joke for those of a certain generation!

I think I've just spotted a mistake in the Ipswich fixture list for next week. It says we're racing Belle Vue. Surely it must be Northampton or King's Lynn?

Wimbledon Centre Court it is then.

What's wrong with Odsal?

And supposing A beats B, B beats C and C beats A?

Good to see that Heat Four was "Speedway out of the top drawer" though.

Oh, guess what, heat two and Dudek also "fired himself to the front." Fancy.

Good to see Jason Doyle "fire himself to the front." I wonder if any other riders will do that?

What I do miss are the Wembley Finals set in the magnificence of the Empire Stadium with 90,000 fans yelling their heads off..... But then I'm just an old codger, so what do you expect?

There seems to be a mistake with the title of this thread......

Ove Fundin was in 15 finals altogether and finished in the top 3 11 times. Jason Crump also finished in the top 3 10 times running from 2001 to 2010, bookended with two fourth places, 2000 and 2011.

I don't really understand why he got the nod for Heat 15 instead of the skip.

Bomber, a guest? Surely not!

I'll look out for you. Will you be wearing your full military uniform?

Hooray! Well done.

You're better finishing 3rd than 4th; 5th than 6th; 7th than 8th and 9th than 10th. It's not that difficult to understand.
