For how much longer is our International Speedway Team going to be known by that bloody awful name TeamGB? Talk about stating the bloody obvious: i) It is a Team. ii) It is Great Britain. Why the hell can we not just call our International Team 'GREAT BRITAIN' so that we can have some pride in both the Team and our Country. But PLEASE not the obnoxious TeamGB - it is an abomination!!!!! I would also ask for a big Union Flag on the racejacket - but I have little doubt that would be going too far. http://speedwayplus.com/FreddieWilliams.shtml Link taken from SpeedwayPlus website.

Been to Silver Mine (Bank) for money Tonto. Hi Yo Silver Awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!! SAY!!! Who was that masked man? :shock:

'The William Tell Overture'. Gioachino Rossini. Hi - Yo Silver!!!

Cost perhaps?

Aaahhhhh yes. The British League. Happy Memories.

He should have an interest if he is collecting a Fee. If the worst comes to the worst and Redcar closed (I sincerely hope it doesn't), then there would be NO Fee for CVS. If it were me, I would be interested.

It might be if it was funny. :nono: But - crucially - it isn't. :unsure:

Yes iris123 - I noticed that and wondered why too? It's obviously lost on me s well. I shall look forward to Humphrey's explanation with interest. :unsure:

TWO absolutely cracking Posts. :approve:

Then he shouldn't have to worry about Visas any more.

Phew! - that is such a shame Whiteliner. No - you didn't disappoint me with your Statement.

Thus speaks (in this case ) the voice of reason. Well said BW.

Sad to hear things are so bad MrM. :sad:

This Thread is too complicated for me. :blink:

Says it in a nutshell - but - will anybody listen or take notice.

You might be right. Doesn't change the fact that he could have put fellow Riders at risk though - does it? I wonder if he will be Tested regularly at domestic Meetings - I certainly hope so.

Sadly you are dead right.

So you are saying that BSI has no responsibility toward Speedway - even though it is making a hell of a lot of money out of it. It doesn't matter to me how small the amount they put in to Speedway - it is though my contention that they should contribute something, not to each Track, but to each Country for Youth Development.. To me £1.5 million is a lot of money.

I bet it isn't on here. :D

Firstly by giving a certain sum of money to each Country, graded to size and popularity of the Sport in said Country, for Youth Development. I realise that the Poles will probably get largest share. That is the only fair way to do it. Secondly - Don't ask me how much - I don't know the the full financial details of the GP Series. I hope this answers your question.

Well said SCB. :approve:

It also doesn't reflect well on the protestations emanating from certain people at Poole either.

You may be right - but - we are where we are. Speedway is dying now - no matter whose fault it is. Surely Speedway should benefit in some way from the Sports premier/Showcase Event. Or - are you saying I am wrong. Who?

Two in one day Blazeaway - I'm becoming a Fan. :rofl:
