Swc Final 2015
orion replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
The bottom line was that the meeting was always going to be called off due to rain, it never matter at what time they took the covers off ...just because you went and spent good money nothing was not going to change that ...you went to a meeting that got called off because it rain it's hardly a raw deal -

Like he said it rained and it was going to carry on raining so it called off .... I understand your upset because you spent a lot of money to be there but nothing would have changed things . If you don't to want hear comments like that then stop reading this topic . -
Rather than name calling let us look at the facts ....Cov rode Lakeside the other week and by all accounts that meeting should never have not got to heat 10 as the track had become dangerous just like it had v Poole ...now on that topic bar one or two there was no concerns about people being ripped off no concern for any rider safely etc .....my point is pretty clear and it it's clearly proved that people attitudes change depening if they are winning or losing . Of course no fan wants any rider to get injured but there is no doubt that a high % of fans are willing to see there team complete a match on a dangerous track if they winning or are going to win . Yet again another lie ....there was no heavy rain during the few heats but light drizzle other people at the match have confirmed that ...if it was heavy the riders would hardly been able to see . The racing for the six heats were fine we all saw that and both team managers were more than happy with the track as havy said on sky . I have to say I never seen one person tell so many porkies on one subject ...Heavy rain the whole time no visability ,sky changing the track etc ... no doubt the high wind will now turn into a tornado .

I trust you never went to the Lakeside match the other week then when the same happened then or maybe you forgot to post ? it's amazing that fans only feel ripped off or worry about the riders getting hurt when they get beat .
-
Well quite clearly it's money ..when you have a test match you going to have paid quite a lot of heat leaders top riders etc ...the fans stopped coming to watch test matches hence there were big losses ...unless your going to find someone who willing to just give away money then they are unlikey to return to the uk .
-
Yea look at all those Test Matches Denmark ride .....the bottom line is that they lose tons of money who ever runs them hence why they are not ridden anymore .
-
Becoming ...Horton should work for them as he is the biggest joke in speedway .
-
I thought you said he was not good enough a moment ago ..make your mind up
-
So why is that a disgrace ?
-
Keep your hair on
-
??? the other night everyone run him down for putting his best riders out last .Why should have woffy been have in that heat ? . As Arson said ..Harris and King should get on Woffinden bikes
-
Win or Lose ...seeing Woffy and Lambert ride like this is the best thing that happened to uk speedway in years .
-
In your opinion ...most on this topic think otherwise .
-
Shame he's got no eyes ...clean pass before the Russia just lent on him ...good for team gb but a poor call
-
And ? I am sure any team who ride v Poole at home get one of there biggest crowds but sky are still going to show Poole away at times ...As I said Horton signed up to the rules of the tv he also choose to charge full admission for a sky match .
-
I guess it's up for debate if Harris should have lost on purpose so we could have used the joker, not my cup of tea but each to there own . Not sure it matters what order you put the riders in at the end ...the bottom line is that we would have to have won the match up's 3-1 no matter what order ..in thou's last set of races Team Gb could have won the first 3 match up's but we never .
-
I reckon they should Bring Bridger in .
-
As has been explain to you about a 100 times ...only the starts were ripped up .Not sure you were there as every thing you said has been shown to be a lie so far .
-
Is was confirmed by your own team manager that your trackman had done a great job on the track ..Are you calling him a liar ? .
-
Great post 100 % agree with all of that ...just like to add that another crap thing was not to hold it in the same country and have these boring and unfair rounds at the same places and the same teams. of course this all comes down to money. Are we really going to have the final in Denmark and Poland all the time ? . Standard Speedway, turn a great idea and turn into a joke . People moan about the joker and I admit I hate it in this format but the tac sub is just as bad . Your got 4 riders just let them take all there rides and see what team is the best .
-
Poland got a rider to pretend he was sick ..you should have reserves but they should only be allowed to take two rides in the meeting for a injured or just because of tactics . It would stop teams pulling a fast one but not cause maximum hurt to team who lose a rider because of injury like tonight .
-
He never takes no for a answer himself ..so this comes as no shock .
