Yes, BSI must be wincing at that result.

And on a thursday too.

Hopefully, he would make it around the bend(s).

Nail on the head again Dean but is anybody listening?

It's been announced today that Kelvin Mullarkey has died aged 67. Mostly remembered for his spells at Rye House but I recall him doubling-up with Poole in the late 70's. A real character who never shirked confrontation. RIP Kelvin. http://www.ryehouserockets.co/news.php?extend.1573

Edinburgh were doing that in 1978, others may have done so before or since.

By far? I would suggest it's a close-run thing now. Putting aside the different eras and just looking at equivalent competitions: In the World Champs Craven: 2x1st & 2x3rd Woffy: 2x1st & 1x2nd British Champs Craven: 2x1st Woffy: 3x1st That's without considering Woffy's stellar efforts in the SoN and previous SWC rounds.

There's a strong argument that he already is. I certainly think so.

? It was live on TV. How is that no media interest?

There is no point in comparing speedway to football. Football has huge global appeal and will command TV coverage regardless of its rules. Speedway and other minority sports simply have to meet the broadcasters wishes to get screened. I'd rather last nights coverage live in HD with the contrived finish than a straight 'most points wins' with no media interest at all.

Thanks to SGPTV for covering it in HD with no ad breaks. https://speedwaygp.neulion.com

No-one is criticising his overall performance, which was simply magnificent, but he probably chose the wrong option in that one race.

Not unlikely at all. Tai was the best team-rider by miles and surely could have put Emil wherever he wanted.

Absolutely stellar stuff from Woffy!

I'm watching it on this using a VPN https://speedwaygp.neulion.com/video/monster-energy-fim-speedway-of-nations---final-2

I believe the owners/promoters there have declined the chance to host a GP on more than one occasion.

I'd prefer to be right and disrespectful rather than wrong and respectful.

Race jackets still allow for that.

Jog on....

Woofy - get in!!

Heat 20 - what a race, Lindgren on fire.

Is this being streamed live on YouTube again this year and, if so, is there an HD stream for it?

There is never 90 minutes of action in a football match. The average ball-in-play time is around 47-50 minutes.

Absolutely. James hasn't progressed since last season in an arguably weaker league. I don't see him much above reserve in the CL but would love for him to prove me wrong.

So do I, especially bold uncluttered ones. Those Sheffield kevlars above make the team look like car mechanics.
