  1. MY mistake ... meant Lodz. Polish second division is of a much higher standard that what we see in the UK.
  2. DOUBTFUL that his performances for Lublin will be the only criteria for a wild card if he doesn't make it through the qualifiers. Will be very surprised if Lambert isn't an SGP rider in 2020.
  3. YOU'RE obviously a mere youngster... good to see however.
  4. ME too but all good things come to en end and, frankly, not sure he was still 'putting bums on seats' ... not even in Denmark.
  5. ADELAIDE or Ipswich (in the general vicinity of Brisbane ... doubt whether Vojens has changed at all. Might need a Spring clean.
  6. A WORD in the ear of Chris Morton about the construction of a new track would be a good idea. Cannot be the same size as the one CM designed and orchestrated at the NSS but a scaled down version is feasible.
  7. FANS ... as previously stated, racing at the Market is greatly improved. The whole package is terrific.
  8. ON the contrary ... numbers are down because many fans are bored with places like Malilla, Krsko,Teterow and Hallstavik. Prague is very popular by contrast.
  9. LAST SGP of the year should always be at Torun ... and certainly not Australia. Any SGP 'Down Under' should be at the start of the campaign, not the end. True, it is an uninspiring calendar and symptomatic of the problems facing the FIM and BSI in expanding the series beyond its current boundaries.
  10. HAVE always refrained from getting involved with any of the Poole versus The Rest arguments on here. But some of the comments about the refereeing last night are borderline. Decisions are subjective, often a matter of opinion rather than fact. Referees will sometimes make a wrong decision. They are human. But I know Craig Ackroyd. To suggest he is either biased or, far worse, corrupt, is a step too far.
  11. SHOWED in his last ride that he can still do it. Hopefully, with a winter back in the saddle, a more settled domestic life, etc, etc, he might still haul his way back. Too many on here forget what a fantastic and entertaining rider he was in 2012.
  12. MUCH as I love the high speed racing at Torun how often do riders pass round the inside? One reason why I would actually rate the NSS higher ... more racing lines. Can understand why ref didn't exclude Zmarzlik but, as NP stated, it is all about opinions. Nothing black and white about that one.
  13. IT'S never over until it's over... could have been so much worse.
  14. INTERESTING interview with Chris Louis ... http://www.eadt.co.uk/sport/louis-looks-back-at-difficult-season-for-witches-1-5723216
  15. TRACK sales used to be quite important but were always a small percentage of overall figure. For the past few years, with a lack of continuity of fixtures, etc, our track sales have shrunk to being almost non-existent outside of a couple of tracks.
  16. THE last race at Poole on Monday and the brace of recent Heat 13s at Belle Vue underlined in my view that speedway CAN be the most exciting and enthralling form of motorsport but there can be a lot of dross as well. F1 is just a borefest especially when Sky Sports replay a whole race to literally fill in air time.
  17. MY own view (nothing more) is that the later date is down to stadium availability with the rugby World Cup taking place in 2019 and possibly the Welsh team requiring the stadium more often.
