Great post Andy Lee was brilliant for his son, a great partnership Lee at his best was a great.At Lynn how many maximums did he get a lot! But funny anough for Poole for a couple of seasons is certainly the quickest rider I've ever seen.Won the pride of the east after Norden 83 destroyed my hero P.Crump in the helmet and beat Carter 4.0 over 2 legs and Carter i believe was a star Lee was a mega talent one or two of them come along every 50 years.

Those laughable toilets(scary Big time)! i love watching the Robins on any bend also the starting gate.But you are right maybe get new facilities move on progression which would be brilliant.When i first went to the Abbey there was a cheap and dear side after heat 8 you get through to the dear side oh that was great you were in your Eliment!!

God out of touch Tim, couldn't be bothered to google or get me records out only Gunder and Hans! both great riders before the GP venture.

I believe Holder will retain his title! It hasn't happened much in recent years, is Penhall the only1 to retain his title recently? and he was very lucky indeed very lucky.Holder is my favourite because I think he will take a lot of beating , still young learning all the time has the experience and mentally he is very tough.Forgot about Rickardsson can't remember if he retained the title? saying that Rickardsson is Just in my top 6 of all time laughable for a 6 times world champ.

Thats great 'beefy that you still enjoy it, i still do but not as much though as the old days.I go have a look in the pits and still get a buzz like years ago see say see a young Ritchens go round and think hope the lad does well makes it.Off the subject 'beefy do you think say half the fixtures a 10 pound admission fee is financially viable? i am saying this because to go to footy and speedway is expensive!what do you think?

I do believe whoever is the manager of GB is on a hiding to nothing, unless you are god.We are lacking in quality rider wise and in my lifetime the good old days at WTC level has gone.

I can debate unlike you! do you know Middleditch?yet you personally said he was basically an idiot.His record isn't that bad is it? Also it wasn't a personnal attack on you just said it was a poor post what is wrong with that.Smolinski did ok was entertaining take your pick on his final average but he seems popular with the Brum fans.Get off your high horse don't be paranoid debate for the first time in your life!!

A terrible post! would i trust YOU or MIddlo? a no brainer certainly not you.Ok Neil might of made mistakes,i don't know the man was a very decent rider a decent man ok he might of really overprotected Ward but for me that is not a crime.The family Middleditch name means something to me, a speedway man people make the wrong comment sometimes.Should he be hung No, SCB you are so wrong but saying that you don't even go to speedway now do you.?

Great post a good read! Scunny and Edinburgh for me against the rest Kus,Mellgren,Dyer,Fricke,DIlger,BIrks,Bellego are riders who can all improve.

It's great that Howarth,Morris,Kerr,Jacobs,Bates,(Ect) are getting chances encourage the Brits i say well done Newcastle.

A talented lad i believe he might be a future EL rider a nice tidy style also young Bates could be too i don't know a lot about him but Adam Lowe also impressed me at the minimum could be a PL rider.

A world champ no one can ever can take that away from him! First time I see Gary I think was at Reading never really see him at National league Midldlesborough a young lad see him later on. HIs dad was decent very decent a great captain!Gary great style good luck in the future Gary!

Put things into perspective he hasnt murdered anyone! when I've seen him he has been professional.Signed autographs been polite and (ie)whatever people say mega talented .Apart from Mike Lee he is the most talented rider I have ever seen want him to get back on track this bloke puts bums on seats speedway needs him now i believe.

Was looking through all of my Vic Huxley cuttings and pictures what a great rider he was.But the name Syd Edmonds keeps being mentioned around that time how good was he?I have limited knowledge of his pedigree wondered if others new more about him.

I went to the first meeting, when Bristol came back was it 77? The Daily mirror meeting the crowd was huge.Remember it being rough and bumpy a sandy sort of surface good luck to the Bristol bulldogs be great to av em back.

I think Steady can average 10.50 to 10.90 at home he will take some beating! Away he will do well loved watching him ride for the robins a nice bloke genuine and he is a very good rider no doubt about that.

I think if they cannot afford to carry Josh,which maybe they won't have too!.It might tell us that not all the top guys are riding to there potential.Because as a line up god what an exciting one,Scunny now are a force big time. When i last saw them in the late 70s they were a bottom of the table job really exciting days i think for the stags fans.

Great news chuffed Scunny have given another young talented Brit a chance, good luck Josh!

Whoops! saying that some weeks i was going 5 days a week.

One year we went to Reading, Oxford, Swindon every week. We missed about two home Oxford fixtures only and that was when they had the lovely new grandstand.I and Hagonshocker (he probably did more) did about 120 meetings that year including individual as well great days.

Respect Oldace, i am slipping Holder too RETAIN the title give me the one off final anyday drama excitement..Saying that the GP series has grown on me more young uns getting a chance. But would say a young 17 year old Michael Lee immediately get a chance at the WC now NO.

Wondered who people thought would be the new world champion? and who else would do well.I think Holder can regain the title also Iversen to be in at least the 6th to 8th place in the GP standings.

Ray Stadia is right it is hardly debate is it by calling him a Wally, he starts the thread yet gets the .... taken out of him.As for Oldace has he ever got anything positive to say?

All i am saying is don't bother with the thread if you are not interested,why try to belittle the bloke.

I can say the same of about you but until now wouldn't of said anything, you remind me of Victor Melldrew god talk about doom and gloom.
