  1. Not sure how that will work. Eurosport don’t film themselves but take feeds. So who is going to be the broadcaster for Eurosport?
  2. Gavan trying to defend the Undefendable. What a suprise. Anyone who thinks the flag Marshall is the cause has a screw loose. Cook caused it all. He is totally to blame for everything that happened. Banged to rights with over 1000 witnesses. The flag Marshall should be praised for stopping Cook before he caused more issues. Cook was a disgrace. Fact! By the way thought this was hilarious!
  3. Someone made a clip on twitter earlier of the Glasgow rider introductions at Eastbourne but I can’t find it now.
  4. It can be bought off the shelf. Very simple to do as long as there’s a good broadband connection at the track. Have a subscription service or pay for one off meetings. Easy and the whole setup can be purchased from several media companies.
  5. King and Harris as reserves is a nonsense. It should be British youngsters only.
  6. Lol. Riders were wobbling around in virtually every heat. Tungates first to last in the course of twenty metres summing it up. Are you seriously saying the three riders past him through skill and not because he messed it up? It was dire ‘entertainment’.
  7. I think Swindon will get 4th. Rather go there than Monmore.
  8. But caused mostly by rider error. Tungate’s last ride summed it up.
  9. Sorry Brum but Wimborne Road is a better track than Monmore. It’s had its issues granted, but at the moment it’s the best it’s been for a long time and far better racing than watching riders wobble around Monmore.
  10. Ryan Douglas was excellent at Poole the other night. Tonight you wouldn’t know it was the same rider. Just goes to show. Put a good rider on a good track and they can perform. Stick them on Monmore and they look like a rider who has only cocked his leg over a bike for the first time the week before.
  11. I hope so. Never been a fan of Monmore. Riders wobble around all over the show and heats get spaced out.
  12. A bit of passing and repassing in the last. Riders getting so spaced out though. Hopefully it will improve.
  13. Poole are just a better team than Ipswich. With a team manager that knows his stuff.
  14. Yes Ipswich are cannon fodder now. Had a good period punching above their weight but now riding to form. But to be honest I don’t care who we have in the playoffs. Have to beat them to be champs and we are good at that.
  15. At Poole the flag marshal stands in the middle of the track ten metres in front of the tapes with flag raised. Whilst away riders don helmets and sit on their bikes during parade, none have ever ridden off past the flag Marshall. Absolutely agree. A simple solution is that riders are not allowed to Don helmets or straddle a bike until all riders have been announced. Keep the bikes behind the riders and mechanics hold onto helmets until intros finished. Simple.
  16. That’s the exit from the pits. The entrance is halfway down the back straight.
  17. Wasn’t ~Eastbourne who caused this. Though Eddie should have kept his beak out of it.
  18. The entrance to the pits is half way down the back straight, meaning the three riders would have had to have ridden past the riders who were still being introduced! There were families by the riders!
  19. The flag Marshall was under instruction to stop the out of control Cook, Vissing and other rider from coming around and riding in front of the other riders who were still being introduced to the crowd, along with members of the public who were also trackside. The Marshall is a hero from stopping potential carnage.
