  1. Thats funny. For years Harris is critisized for wild cards, yet when he qualifies he should give up his place to a guy given a reserve sport. Lol
  2. So BVs number 8 guested for Stoke and BV had to use another rider as a guest. What the hell is the point of a number 8?!
  3. Opps. Meant Glasgow! It's just so suprising to me, I'd have not been shocked had Glasgow gone all season getting a point in every meeting. I just assumed that top 4 would be good for 35 everywhere, meaning the bottom 3 only needed to score a few each meeting. I'm sure they'll come good. And me! As for Ben Barker. 1 point is terrible but nobody will know that more than he will. One of the reasons I like Ben so much is he HATES to lose and you never need to question his commitment and effort.
  4. Looks like it's made a lot of us laugh, so it's just you on your own. Again. Surprising that.
  5. Exactly. I'm really not sure why this is dragging on. The thing is it's just one more thing that makes us question BV speedway and it's professionalism.
  6. Are Glasgow the most over rated team since, erm, Poole?! Whats going on, Poole and Glasgow both riding badly despite being tipped by most to win their respective leagues
  7. TBH Chris Harris turns up to practice and struggles anyway and we're often told how the practice and meeting track s are very different. Bomber has many faults, but he is ambitious while still also remaining loyal to his country. Good for him!
  8. Good point! He had 5 meetings for Leicester last season plus the two ths year is still only 7 meetings though, not 8! His average is going to drop a lot the week after his next away meeting
  9. They have the wrong figure for Bjarne I think. So it'll be Buckowski in reserve. BV wont change until a week after stevie has his 2nd away meeting. Tungate will get an average in a weeks time as he has now done 4 home and 4 away. As has Sedgmen. So Tungate moves into the 1-5, not sure what's Sedgmens average is and if it's him or Wright who drops to reserve.
  10. Coventry, really? Seemed to be loads of houses going up at one point. It made me chuckle that all the land that one house Peugeot/Citroen (huge amounts) was being built on. So they were taking people jobs and then expecting them to buy new homes - does anyone see the glaring issue there? Sounds like having decimated industry and replaced it with housing they now want to remove the places of entertainment too and replace them with housing. Soon the people of Coventry will have more homes than they can shake a stick at but nowhere to work and nowhere to go for entertainment. And for Coventry read just about any town, city or village you like. The Llanwern and Orb steelworks in Newport have seen huge numbers of homes built on them in recent years. Same thing, two massive sites, loads of homes but huge job losses.
  11. Top 3 ride at 1,3 and 5 at team managers discretion. Which is how it should be, give team managers something to do!
  12. I don't think I have ever been disappointed when I've seen him ride and honestly don't think I can fault him. If I had to pick one thing he could do to improve then thats be more aggressive but I think his relaxed riding style is what is working for him so its possible being more aggressive could be the worst thing he could do. Certainly a very classy and hugely talented young rider.
  13. Maybe they could get the major in to cut a ribbon?
  14. It's official title is the "National Development League" and it's sponsored by "Travel Plus Tours"
  15. One of the best for quality too - certainly a lot better than re-run!
  16. It's often been said over the years that Bombers biggest failing is his ability to know how to get the most out of the bike he's riding when back in the pits. So he always seemed an odd guy to have trying to develop/work on them with.
  17. Exactly. It was bad enough 1 season but it's going to happen again!
  18. The same idiots even realised that draft riders averages were so messed up they "couldnt use their EL averages" and used their PL average for team building. Then promptly agreed that they could move into the 1-5 after 4 meetings on an average gained in the same way.
  19. The next set of averages are not due out until after any meetings taking place tomorrow and will take effect from Monday (16th) so BV still line up as per the last set of averages.
  20. It only ever worked on XP. I could only get it to work by installing a virtual machine with XP and playing it on that
  21. Bjerre 33R3 in Sweden. Why would we ever want him?
  22. No, rule doesn't say that at all. It says, "15.2.5 Riders must at the expiry of this time allowance, be on the track, under power, proceeding without stopping towards the Starting Gate." he was NOT under power and he was not proceeding towards the starting gate.
  23. So the BSPA disallow it because of clashes, nothing actually changes in reality and they allow it. What a bunch of morons. Morons who eventually come to the right decision, I refuse to say well done as I wouldnt have said well done if they had just allowed it for the start!
