  1. Aren't there some young Gunnestads coming through, along with others??
  2. The key mistake that Team GB made this time was to listen to the recommendations of Kennett's 'mentor' John Davis and EL Team Manager Rosco that Eddie would do a job at KL!!!! As for the team changes for the play-off, team spirit will be crucial (Woffy,Barker,Bridger?!) and I'm sure the Aussies will be delighted at the inclusion of Barker!! Team GB Manager Phil Morris (rather than Team Coach Middlo) will need all his 'skills' particularly against the Aussies, with an 'interest' in both camps!!
  3. So can probably afford cheaper programmes unlike those clubs that have to pay a commercial rent and whose only source of income is through the turnstiles, programmes, advertising and any sponsorship!
  4. There's nothing wrong with enthusiastic amateurs!! Sky started with loads of them - and in some peoples opinion have still got some!!! ps. nobody has asked yet, but what was wrong with Tatum in his interview on the track with Sophie?? I thought (seriously) that he was having a stroke the way he was slurring his words and 'burbling'!! Does he drink??
  5. Is Scunthorpe their own track or do they have to pay rent etc to a landlord?
  6. WTF? Sullivan has retired from racing. Schlein has 'retired' from international racing!!! Could have taken Dyer, Smith or North though!!!
  7. Not sure about some of the 'inserts' referred to above, but when its happened at Poole, the 'insert' as usually a 4-page (ie an A4 double sided) race card with race sponsors still included and updated info on the reverse eg Meeting sponsor profile; rider changes etc!! As has been said, promoters cannot afford to lose money on programmes/advertising especially if, like last year, there were many rain-offs.
  8. I'm on Virgin media and its showing Eurosport 2 from 1530 to 1800 hrs!!! Unfortunately can't watch it this afternoon due to prior commitments, so looking to record and watch later!!
  9. I hear that if its rained off tomorrow as well, Australia are seeded through to the final, with Poland and Russia to the race-off - based on the current world rankings??!! EDIT: Sorry hadn't seen this already posted!!!
  10. So much for all the young Aussies coming through and No young Brits!!
  11. I know Starman, I met Steve at work on several occasions when he was floor manager for the darts on Sky - at a venue near you!! And we caught up again in Cardiff at the hotel after the GP!
  12. I see all countries had their Number 1 pairings!!!
  13. I've never been a past supporter of Tai's - mainly down to his perceived past attitude/personality - but last night the kid was simply awesome and deserved all the plaudits he is getting. As far as his lack of sponsorship, that may also have something to do with his past 'reputation', which he needs to continue to work on!! Maybe an approach to Red Bull is required as they seem to have a better knack of choosing riders that win GPs this year, than say Monster for example.
  14. I'm surprised you still attend/comment/have any interest??
  15. Cheers MP. Plenty of time for any EL Friday-nighters to get there then - assuming there are flights/ferries!!
  16. Anyone know the start times of the 2 GP qualifier Semi Finals in Lonigo and Esbjerg on 22nd June??
  17. ...and Lucas Dryml (collarbone) will probably be replaced by Zagar?!!
