I am more then 6 points behind the leader..... can I play the JOKER !!!!!!!!!!!!! Now theres a good idea I'll get my coat...

So whats the track record now? and who holds it? Good post Ouch! ....... I hope the correct people read it and learn from it. After hearing what BV track has been like, that was poor do's last night. I don't want tonight to be the same, Or maybe it was like it was last night, change it for tonight so Aussie don't have a head start on all the others. Some light drizzle here, but I am 30 miles west of Manchester but the wind blows that way.

Did you try them all Steve.??? and £10 for a program.... did the program cover tonights racing as well. £10 for a prog is moe then a bit steep.

All we need is tonight Tai withdraws from the meeting to "let youngsters" have a chance and Chris Harris rides in his place.

Got to add my disappointment about the racing being not at its best. Good to Emil again but a bit disappointed in his performance to be honest. The stadium really looks good, but the same grumble as others who were in the East stand - no sound system there worth mentioning of and the big screen was too far away to be able to read what was going on. Great viewing from East stand though. Tonight I took a friend with me as the wife wasnt feeling her best, tomorrow she says she going but that will cause a problem, as I am sure she will want something to eat but she wont like the choice - its either this burger bar or that burger bar. Not allowed to take own food in, yet there are many people whose digestive system will not allow then to eat burgers or chips etc. And the "missing Greg", disappointed and annoyed at the same time. Sorry, but he let the fans down badly, very badly and I think a lot of fans will remember this night, I certainly will. I dont do social media stuff but it would be interested on whats be said there.

He rode last year when they got to the same playoff. No bother then.

Thanks R&R

At 2:56pm I dont think you got a chance of Germany riding.

I hope he has a very very good reason for not riding, and I dont grab giving the youngsters a chance....if that was the case why bother in the Event 2. Probable that USA would finish last tonight, maybe not, but or there top rider to pull out (except for exceptional reasons) is very poor and a very bad decision which he may regret.

Who am I supporting... well its a sport and I dont go for nationalism any way.... I support whoever I like as a speedway racer Emil, Fricke, AJ, Robert are up there

Thats a diabolic move by Hancock, sorry but he has lost my respect, unless he has an injury.

Looks like we looking at different weather forecasts. Light showers today till about 2pm then fine. Tomorrow oing to be fine all day. With the good drainage at BV its all looking good.

That seems very tight Steve. If you on M6, Birmingham is usually a nightmare any day but especially Fridays.

Can't see anyone logically not agreeing with that.

Just been on the BV website and cant see anything about no more disabled parking spots. Where did you find out about the shortage?? I can see that still parking available in the school next to the stadium for Friday night.

Thanks. Looked bigger then that. Belle Vue is 347m, not seen it yet but looking forward to it.

I like the Vastervik track, looked like loads of lines to take probably something to do with its width. They kept saying it was small track, what is the length of it??

Read an article today which is saying the inks used in tattooing can be very dangerouse, even cancer causing. Not what you want to hear when the body is covered in tattoos.

I dont know the facts any more then you do, but what I said is "it could be that BV has already provided more then the minimum requirement". I have been to Manchester Arena many times, that indoor stadium holds approx. 20,000, but provide probably space for no more then 40 wheelchairs, and no doubt they are working to regulations.

Do yo know what regulations say as to what and how many facilities a staidium has to provide for disabled persons? Think there will be 8000 on Saturday now the temporary east stand is in use for the weekend. Could be that the demand is in excess of the minimum requirements and it could be that BV has already provided more then the minimum requirement. Unless you know the facts then its difficult to make a comment.

Just told him that few minutes before you, but I not sure what the nameof the road is.... I know its Rusholme (think it is anyway). Do you, Phil, know the road.?

The "famous" "curry mile" is not too far away - Rusholme I think, never been there though I do like a good curry, someone will be along giving more details I am sure.

Russia are the spoilers on Friday IMO. If Emil, Artem and Grigory are all "singing in tune" then they could win it. Its just that Artem and Grigory can "do it" but dont always do it.

I dont see that USA "would be on the way home right now". Take Joker points off Hancock (3) and take Joker points off Smolinski (2) and you still got USA being 3rd and throgh. And although the slowing down last night was blatant to everyone, it could so easily be made more subtle, so much so it would be impossible for a ref (or member of this forum) to judge correctly.
