I find it strange that in a pre recorded meeting we have to miss the first four races and then have to sit through the track grading / watering and have advert breaks willy nilly... it just does not make sense ! I thought they must have condensed the programme but no it went the full three hours......It was just not edited right at all they don`t seem to know that the races are run in blocks of four.....That said it was much better to see what we saw than not see it at all ...Within the three hours alloted time they had ample time to show ALL the races and cut out the small breaks between the blocks of four races and so make it a good production, having said that I think its nothing new for eurosport it happens on all their programmes..

Stead and King should never have been in the team, they`re elite riders on their way down into the premier league..How can the experience gained by King and Stead be of any value ? A chance to blood some up and coming GB riders has been lost.

Thought Crump did an excellent job he was a natural in front of camera and in fact I think Scott was a bit embarrased and found it difficult to contribute, Think Scott would be out of a job if Crump was available permanently

Stead`s on his way down, we need riders who are on their way UP and are going to be the future of team GB..Its a backward step in my opinion, give the young uns a chance !!!

It was pretty much what we know already, am just hoping its not a mini series I wouldn`t want to see the ` Life of Ward.`...

Got to admit David Rowe was a lot better than Jack. He`s more proficient at commentating and he even made Sam sound better. thought Sam was acceptable tonight...

Have not been impressed with the Swedish speedway upto press but have to say tonights meeting was really good despite the big score difference.. there was some good racing and the commentary was a lot better I think Sam found it better working with his new mate..and it was proven theres no need to shout ...

Don`t think MJJ will be able to spot when the camera is on him as quick as Holder thats something Holder has honed to perfection..

Anybody who gives Dave Younghusband a mention is fine by me he must know his stuff..

Thought Woffy wouldn`t be able to hang onto his title but it looks as though he`s going to prove me wrong he`s recovered well from his early season dip. Am not a fan of his but hey he`s supposedly British...

He didn`t do much for us but hey I don`t hold grudges, well done to Kasprzak he fully deserved his win, a lesser rider would have given up when Ward sailed past but Kasprzak kept on to the end and for me averted a nightmare. Am thinking Kasprzak could be World Champion 2014..........

Yes Mauger was a big wig only one or two had more than one machine at that time....

I remember one Thursday tea time Mauger was on his way to Owlerton and in those days he had a trailer with two machines on, and as he took a right hand acute bend his bikes were spilled onto the road don`t remember if the trailer overturned or they just came adrift from the trailer . I didn`t see it personally but a friend who lived on the corner told me about the incident. I think he was an ACE at that time Mauger that is.

Yes I agree, don`t think there was any need for Risings reply just because he knows all about it he thinks nobody else should, WestGorton1884 was asking in a polite and proper manner

Micks very patriotic

Thanks SCB.....Was wondering what we would do without the SKY programmes

To elaborate. I don`t think the Ward case was ever mentioned in the Star before it came to court, the first I saw of it in the Star was when it was all done and dusted in Wards favour . I might be wrong but thats what I believe.

Might be wrong but I don`t think the Ward case was ever mentioned in the Star until Ward had come up smelling of Roses

Haven`t bought the star for years and don`t intend to start now. Much of the content seems to be taken from press releases from the various clubs and I believe some of the journalistic reports are biased towards a certain club, thats just my opinion.

Monday Monday reminds me of Wolverhampton speedway... it was at the top of the charts when I first went to Wolverhampton . I think it was their signature tune at that time....Probably went to see Tommy Roper doing one of his World Champ Qualifying rounds......

I`ve just been reading some tweets on the subject of the bike show and I must say the people at Coventry, ( the Randles especially ) deserve a lot of credit for organising a stand at this event because they are not solely there for the good of Coventry Bees but for the good of the sport in general apparently handing out flyers with ALL league clubs listed on it along with a video screen showing racing...I was amazed to read that the BSPA have not shown any interest in this event, By the sound of it the stand is getting a lot of interesting visitors so again well done to the people at Coventry....

Glad Middlo`s gone, he didn`t have much idea as was proven by the results, think he was even embarrassed himself to be in the job......

I knew I recognised him from somewhere but couldn`t think where.....thanks for telling us...

All credit to Zagar I think he`s done a good thing, he obviously thinks he`s going to qualify on his own merit and by withdrawing he`s given another chap a chance to qualify even though that chap is Bomber Harris .

Well done to Tai, It was a pity Lebedevs slipped up and let Ward into the final, it spoiled the night for me. ...I think Tai did let Pedersen through but am not bothered about that....
