  1. So if we did rejoin along with Leicester thats 12. Sheffield up for sale so anything could happen with that one. The numbers could stack up for a mid April (NZ GP 5th April) to end September season once home and away plus a cup comp.
  2. I have a way to help you feel better about this WK. In the GP threads you bang the drum for qualifers only. So if you think of the league system and play off groups as qualifers then you get the rightful finalists.
  3. and there in lies the problem for British Speedway. If Adam who is seen as one of the brightest prospects the country has is finding sponsors difficult to find then its easy to understand why all are struggling. Best of luck to Adam wherever he is next year and for securing some good back up over the winter.
  4. logical - he has history of being picked ahead of more worthy candidates! wink
  5. A tidy little piece - but thats enough about Susanna what about the interview! I thought Tai came across really well highlighting his family sacrifices his injury battle and his tats. Good on ya fella!
  6. possibly - she was certainly impressed with the size of his gong!
  7. I think the EL needs to expand to keep Sky on board. Can see a couple of teams being tempted if they can get the right sponsorship. Perhaps then a new albeit reduced deal could be on the table.
  8. many a true word in jest. perhaps wrong team but right league.
  9. Best wishes to Cam who has had his wrist op today. Spoke with Bruv and fingers crossed it has gone well. Rest up and see you next year fella.
  10. All that working out and Im hearing the limit will be 42.40 next year! wink!
  11. Interesting to see your comment about Rohan being prone to crashing -probably fair comment by the way - yet you see Kozza as a replacement option! I think there is improvement in Rohan but he could be a Ricky Wells type where he steps it up at the higher level whilst not really excelling at PL. An almost identical record to Morten and few more passes. Away improvement is the key for Rohan. I would expect him to be back as he is our new asset base foundation! Ben has by his own admission been a little disappointing in terms of raw points return but for entertainment I have him every year. Cam is a must and if his signature isnt already on a contract get it done now! A possible 9 point man next year IMO. Ritchie could be a bargain at under 4 but will he still be riding anywhere. A lot depends on whether he can make it pay. Morten is Morten and perhaps too much is expected from him. Could be argued that his attitude caused the issues that ultimately cost us at the sharp end of the season . Leigh done pretty much what was expected. If you want some level of consistency Leigh is most likely to provide it. Adam I would have back - he will only get better. He was never likely to live up to the hype some placed upon him. I said anything over 4 would be superb so in my book he more than done his job. A few have mentioned his lack of passes but Id say thats unfair given his limited experience. If there is no massive change from this year I would expect at least 4 of this years team to return. Others to consider. Auty Rosen at the top. Sneddon Wethers Nielsen lower down. Everyone would want Lambert of course!
  12. if thats Ipswich few if any will complain -if its Plymouth or anywhere else we would say thanks for the memories and wish him all best. whatever will be will be.
  13. Will be a self fulfilling proficy if your team share your lack of belief.I can understand you not wanting to big it up only to look silly if it doesnt work out.Perhaps thats the advantage of being neutral
  14. and earned deseved plaudits and best wishes for a return to the higher level next year. I think the Diamonds will win by 20 today. Also Rye showed Somerset are beatable today so the group is still wide open.
  15. Agree there is manipulation but a blanket ban wont work. Who would Ipswich have used at Edinburgh? Although a NL rider may have been better than Klindt!
  16. I think all on here are in agreement that a season ticket is not great value - miss 2 and you are out of pocket. The kids summer deal did seem to work - I saw people who otherwise hadnt been all year. Perhaps they could do a kids season ticket at a £ or 2 a meeting - that way you may get some extra regular paying adults.
  17. If Holder is given a pick but not fit to start I take it that Chris Harris would be in until Holder returned?
  18. I think Ive mentioned before about the atmosphere being difficult due to Foxhall being a vast open bowl. Even when people do get excited it just disappears into the air. Perhaps we could try only having the mid section of the main stand used - everyone has to sit there. If the whole crowd was together it would help.
  19. Decent spot on BBC sports news. 20 secs including footage of his last bend to clinch the title and him lifting the trophy.
  20. Always start high when negotiating a sale! winkedit Bringing back bad memories of us turning down £15k for Savalas Clouting. lol
  21. But without gaters like Greg there would be no one to pass! wink
