  1. In the Speedway Star that Josh is going to try laser treatment on his broken wrist, to try and compete in the Under 15's.
  2. Did Cowboy John Cook have some skeleton leathers, I am sure that I seem to remember him waering some.
  3. Josh is Sean protege, I still say that the guy will somewher along the linre ride for the Blue and Gold of Sheffield.
  4. Sorry I was led to believe that he was from Sheffield, I obviously got it wrong. :oops:
  5. I think if was a bit more consistent he would have ben a multi world champ, some of the moves he makes on a speedway bike are breathtaking.
  6. Very powerful, Josh is a real special rider, I think a real find for the Scorpions in there first season.
  7. Rene should not be a problem as he still lives in Sheffield, as far as I know.
  8. This would be a good one, he was an excellent character.
  9. How was he treated, I vaguely remember, but my memory not very clear on the matter. The one thing I do remember his him sffering from diabetes, I seem to remember him being diagnosed at the peak of his career.
  10. I would say that Josh will turn out for the Scorpions, if he does you should have the pleasure of him riding the backend of this season, and the whole of the next season.
  11. Okay, I did not realise that they had again moved, the point I was getting across more than anything, was that with Rory being based in Sheffield that Josh would strike up a friendship with him. Rory did live in Sheffield for about 18 months and was a regular at Owlerton on Thursdays.
  12. I usually find that Lee seems to ride just a little bit better when he wears GB kevelars, perhaps he ought to wear them for the Grand Prix.
  13. Right okay I think he ride for Scunthorpe up to his 16th birthday, and then sign for Sheffield or an Elite club.
  14. Cannot believe that Lee Richardson, is getting slated here, the guy was ill last night, and scored a max, beat Nicki Pedersen easy what do people want.
  15. Prediction wise I think I got it spot, have say that Chris Harris was the same, if fact all the boys did us proud, I was immensly proud of them all. If Mark Loram is fit then do we go with the same five, I wish I could say yes, but I have to say that I would would with Mark Loram instead of Joe Screen, but that is taking nothing away from Screeny, who was great. Can we win the Final, well in the words of Dave Floppy Norris, BRING IT ON BOYS.
  16. I think there is a lot a speculation about Josh, and will be until his 15th birthday. This is how a see it, I think around near his fifteenth birthday he will sign for either Sheffield or and Elite club. If he signs for an Elite club or Sheffield, then he will be loaned out, to a Conference League team, for me the favourites will be Scunthorpe. I think when he reaches 16 he then ride for Sheffield, for the rest of that season, and further season at least, if he has improved enough then he will go Elite, if not then there is another season in the Premier with Sheffield. Why do I say he will ride for Sheffield, well he has stated that he wants to ride for them at some stage in his career, Sean Wilson is his mentor. The fact he hangs around with Rory Schlien, is not a surprise, as Rory lives in Sheffield, as does Josh, in fact Rory is down at Sheffield as a spectator like Simon Stead most Thursdays. This is what I think will happen, but you never know, all I will say is that Josh is a regular down at Owlerton, and I think he will at some stage turn out in the blue and gold, but as the saying goes money talks.
  17. I pwesonally think tha this could be the time Simon Stead comes of age, this could also signal the time that Team GB start with the younger riders coming through.
  18. Have to disagree, at the time of his injury, I think was on the top of his game, but did not make his mark on a world final.
  19. Simon is in a rich vein of form at the moment and I am sure that the big Swindon track will be to his liking. What we need to do now is get behind the boys, I am sure that they can still pull this one off.
  20. Yes makes you wonder even more why he did not get anywhere near a world title.
  21. Have to say though he never reached his full potential, like alot of the Americans.
  22. I would urge everybody to go and see these boys, they really have a lot of talent.
  23. Trying to think who in today's riders reminds me, but can't think of anybody at the moment.
  24. Yes a very stylish guy, I remember him better riding for Hull.
  25. I will be sat in front of the box with my Union Jack Boxers on.
