  1. I know it’s a serious subject but that did make me laugh!
  2. Wonder if Buster will get the middle of Lynn’s track jet washed before their next visit from Eurosport.
  3. A bit harsh, but you do actually live in the real world. Klindt and Laguta will have to deliver a bare minimum of 20 points between them if the Stars are to have a sniff. That would then require the other members of the team to average 5 points each. The fact that Eurosport aren’t covering this may suggest how likely an away win is.
  4. You have a point. Edinburgh is famous for its comedy festival. Too many people laughing and smiling, not really Hawkins thing is it. Seen happier looking people than him on Smiths album covers.
  5. Whilst everybody is trying to be diplomatic and trying not to judge until all the facts are known, the bottom line is he is guilty and its just the severity of the overall outcome that is to be decided. I have little sympathy for him whatever the outcome as its all his own undoing. The Lions have been swift to replace him and I just hope that Birmingham can come up with something because neither of his teams deserved this.
  6. The club are perhaps already looking at alternatives with a view to binning Morris. Dickson is not renowned for his patience and operating R/R for several matches would take its toll on the team. The difficulty of course is finding another rider. Batch was mentioned in a previous post and he is probably the best of what is available, unless a gamble is taken with an untried foreigner.
  7. We would be stronger at home if we could get Richie Worrall in. (Hopefully his last visit with Peterborough was a blip).
  8. Miserable? I’ll say, makes Pete Adams look like a Court Jester. Don’t expect to see either of them down the pub if it’s Happy Hour.
  9. Studies have apparently been carried out on this. On average, the ball is ‘in play’ between 60 and 70 minutes per match. This was with a view to consider the basketball approach where the clock stops when the ball is dead/out of play. On a speedway front, very few people would be making reference to the 15 minutes of racing if meetings could be consistently wrapped up (without frills) in 90 minutes.
  10. The way it is going, I will want to be paid to go and watch.
  11. This is right up there with 'please sir, the dog ate my homework!'
  12. If this is true, does that mean KL can expect to get a facility (guest, r/r) for his absence in away matches? That saves Buster money, but would be the ultimate p1ss take. Amateur sports have more credibility in the way they are run.
  13. What is the excuse for him not representing his team in the Pairs at Leicester on Thursday?
  14. Two similar away wins in a week for the Lions. Fewest heat winners in both matches. Down to the last heat in both, despite having had decent leads. Carried Harris in both. Come on Bomber, join in. Being entertaining is not about screwing up in Heat 14 to keep it exciting. Yeah, I know, I’m being greedy, Dicko’s boys are on fire!
  15. ‘Most undeserved away win you have ever seen’? Lynn were reliant on two riders having 6 or 7 rides each and going through the card to scrape a home win. Clearly a bad guest choice but it speaks volumes for the rest of team. Even Bomber tried to help you. Unlucky team building I guess.
  16. ……There is now! Fricke was awesome tonight. He had so much speed it didn’t seem to matter if he gated or not, or against who he was racing against. Max grabbed the headlines but Sedgmen was brilliant again. He’s red hot out of the tapes and although he’s not as quick as some others, he seems to ride a clever line and is difficult to pass. Expected the Aces to be more of a threat to be honest but they never really got going. Lions are really on it now at home.
  17. Like it! Pretty sure when it comes Poole negotiating race nights, powers that be will stand aside and say ‘Don’t Stop’, ‘Go Your Own Way’.
  18. Stewart Dickson has apparently offered to take over team management duties.
  19. If he was notified by text then that is appalling and cowardly.
  20. Everyone at Leicester has a soft spot for the twins (having seen them start out as mascots), but getting axed, however unfair it may seem, is unfortunately part and parcel of the sport. The sooner they learn to accept it the better. In view of the lack of opportunities out there, they may have to learn to be tight lipped.
  21. Haven’t seen the Facebook posts but the situation appears to be a little awkward all round. It was obviously Dickson’s decision to drop Dan (he’s a winner and therefore ruthless). Dan will now need to get his head down in the Championship (more his level) with his new club Birmingham. Brum of course have just appointed a new manager…….. a certain Mr Stewart Dickson.
  22. Pairing King with reserves would soon get you in to a position to use a T/S!
  23. So you'd pair up a rider having a dip in form with a reserve in three of his rides?
