  1. Lakeside finally turn up. Been woefull until this heat where he gated and Jonsson looked after him. Rubbish meeting track underwatered dusty and very little racing excitement.
  2. We have had a 6 week break BECAUSE there isnt enough meetings.That is the whole point from Matt Ford. More meetings not less. To say if we have more meetings there's more chance of a rainoff is just silly. Why not have no meetings so we won't have any rainoffs? We need many more meetings. Riders will not be flying in out in out as the racing should be on consecutive nights. Teams ride home every week and away the next day, or day before. 30 odd meetings is not enough. Thats only 15 at home.
  3. Kyle loves it around Brandon and scores very well indeed. Impossible to replace. Reckon there will be no more than 4 in it either way.
  4. Both last night and at Swindon the whole Coventry management and team came over as a complete joke. Let hurry up and finsh so we can go down the chippy, to riders pulling faves on Sky at Swindon behind the interview. They need their heads smacking together by the bspa and told to act professionally.
  5. Will be a much closer meeting all the way through on Friday than tonight. Poole never go big away from home. But, we are stronger all round than Lynn. Should be a cracker. Just hope there's a crowd there to watch it.
  6. Sure did. Didn't think he stood a chance to be honest. That was farcical. Nah happy to be wrong.
  7. Thoroughly enjoyed that meeting. Loads of drama. A shame they forgot to open the gates for fans to come in.
  8. Nasty. Kings lynn chance now gone. Both up. No way Batchelor will keep these two out. Not riding anywhere near well enough. Dramatic meeting.
  9. Hilarious collapse by Kings Lynn. Batch and Schlien so weak. Think this could be the biggest comeback since Lazurus.
  10. Louis, "Havvy what are you gonna say to the guys after this start?" Havvy. "Er......."
  11. No you cant stand all the way around. Just behind the glass on the back straight not in front of it. There are no terraces in front if the back straight stand.
  12. Theres no standing outsidebon the back straight as you have to be behind the glass. If you stood there you would be blocking the view of people on thenither side of the glass, and the walkway is only about one metre wide.
  13. Everyone heard it in the stadium. It boomed out of the speakers! A girl next to me burst into tears and a couple who had brought a friend just laughed, and said they would neber come again. They were trying to explain the rules but the man just laughed when told them etc etc etc....... Truth is there was no need for him to do it, and those who defend it are no better themselves. Even ardent Tai fans should just admit he was wrong and then move along. His language really was indefensible for a national tv audience. No need for it.
  14. Looking forward to coming up for this one on Friday. Poole need to win this one if we have our eyes on finishing in top spot to choose our playoff opponents. No Kyle who rides Brandon very well. Pretty sure Matt will have a good guest lined up for his spot. Hopefully other than that we will be full strength with Bjarne at reserve. Hopefully not another one point defeat. Weather is improving towards the end of the week so hopefully a nice big crowd. Thoughts on this crucial fixture?
  15. Spoke briefly to Kyle in Cardiff. On the mend and really annoyed to be missing. Said he just got ploughed into. Said if it happened two weeks earlier he wouldn't have missed much. At least two maybe three weeks away from a return.
  16. Lambert and Woffinden, then god help us. Cook has reached his level as a decent EL second string and not very good around Belle Vue. Harris, well sorry after yesterdays completely embassessing an inept display no than you. Nicholls is also past his best so again no. King is riding well and after his efforts in the British Final and GP deserves the nod. So it looks like lambert, Woffinden, Cook and King. I think the reserve argument has now been completely put to bed with Ellis getting the reserve berth. Beating riders like Andreas around Lakeside proves he has got what it takes if called upon.
  17. Sections of Poole are not closed off, its open all the way around.
