Pinny

Yeah i think he was with Poole when he was flying in GPS and had a nasty accident. Remember him hitting the fence on the home straight and loram having to lay the bike down

I thought the crash in a Gp where he was lying on the track and looked dead was the one that done him ? I can’t remember fully but recall he was joint top of the Gp standings after a few rounds?

Would of loved to of been about during the 80s in speedway , some of the videos look class on YouTube. as far as grand prixs go , there are a few riders who I feel have under achieved over the years. KK sticks out as the main one , so much talent , superb set up yet looked like he either lacked interest or confidence (or both) half the time. Lukas Dryml was without doubt heading for the very top until injuries stopped him , a great shame as he had it all. Could gate and pass and I have no doubt he would of been a world champ . ward, as much as he was a buffoon off track , was a class act on it and would surely of been a gold medal winner at least once. andreas Jonsson , one of the best styles out there and a pure racer , but heard rumours he loved a party off track and that’s what held him back from consistently getting podium places. In full flight , he was cracking to watch.

Anders was class but did mainly rely on his gating and home form although in his last season at Newport he was superb home and away. A super fan favourite and a class act but felt if he committed himself fully throughout his whole career , Smart could of gone onto bigger things. some called him dirty, I preferred to think of him as just a madman

Frank Smart. Genius on a bike

1999 for me. first season of speedway and only Newport’s third back. had the likes of Watson , Henriksson, Lindqvist , Smart etc plus young guns Neath and Appleton. Superb team entertainment wise. Remember trips to Reading , Exeter , Sheffield , Peterborough (fours), Swindon , Arena .... without doubt my favourite season of speedway. Remember in a challenge Swindon came down to Newport and beat us with Cunningham getting a 15 point max, then going to Swindon in the evening and getting beaten again before beating them home and away twice in the trophy and the league . frank Smarts 15 metre handicap win over Steve Masters was superb , remember before hand everyone saying we were mad putting Smart off 15 for a golden double but we got the 8-1. Watson had to near enough come to a stand still to let him past off the final bend. Went to the PLRC at Sheffield too, Wilson won it , Jesper Olsen second Watson third with Stonehewer fourth. great times , big crowds wherever we went and it’s such a shame to see the sport hanging on by a thread 20 years on.

Nobody is defending Ward or garrity. what Ward got up to was stupid , illegial and irresponsible. What Garrity has done is scum of the earth behavior . A level above what Ward done. that said , both are a pair of brain dead idiots

Hang on , are people honestly classing riding a motorbike stoned just as bad as robbing two vulnerable people with a blade ? Jesus Christ.

seen Allen at Somerset , was superb there to be fair.

Any chance of showing the 1999 Premier Trophy final with Newport???

It’s a well known fact that Polish speedway has a lot more than anywhere else. Polish riders get their engines re tuned way , way more often than Brits etc. and this comes from a couple of riders who have rode in Poland , Sweden and the UK. you only have to look at how much better they are kitted out than any other country.

It’s probably only “window lickers” that would find that funny in all honesty.

You talking to yourself again?!

In short, no matter how serious or unserious people think this virus is, it is going to affect british speedway in a very bad way.

I’m with Steve brum on this one, I was once a fan of Jonasson but he’s taken the piss one too many times now. Farce of a scenario and an awful replacement.

You give yourself up so easily that I have yawned longer than the time it took to work out who you were. Which is precisely what I did when I read your last post

You also have plenty of work to do re arranging the anniversary meeting as well. It’s okay , it’s known who you are

Does part of her name match with my real name, Baldyman ?

He won’t reveal his identity because of how he acted on here during the last ten years. Not just just his recent pathetic posts. Isn’t it ironic about the BB holders and such , when this guy is probably the most disabled out of everyone???

Reading these posts has left me under no doubt that this Speedster15 is the original Pboro loon that came out years ago . The one who posted about having a Bjerre poster on his wall, a huge Sundstrom fan etc? Has to be.

Nicki pedersen is no worse than Lindgren. Lindgren is a rider who has gone under the radar for years despite being reckless. no doubt his pathetic love song video will make people think differently

Without doubt there’s already a lot of pressure on Becker’s shoulders. Think he will average around 7

Depends if Iversen wants to know or not, if he does then he’s by far the better rider.

The guy is an absolute tool.

That website is terrible , what happened to the old one? That was always a pretty decent site.
