  1. Why post something like this? Perhaps he's just tired, feels its time to sit back and is really pleased that someone has come forward to take over the reins. Take a bow Mr English for all you have done for the Diamonds and speedway.
  2. Totally shocked by this sad news. He was loved by the Glasgow fans. RIP Danny
  3. Surprised no one has mentioned that GB are in action against a Rest of the World team at Glasgow on Saturday 18 April 2020.
  4. If I was a Monarchs fan I'd be a lot more confident of not being slain this year than in recent years. I think they will come through thinking they could win rather than than just coming through to get a reminder of what fast exciting speedway looks like
  5. Not at all the 100 Edinburgh fans would try to get in through the the pits gate and wouldn't buy anything unlike the Glasgow fans. The use of the word customers was deliberate
  6. Very simplistic point of view. You are assuming the same number of Glasgow and Edinburgh fans will attend no matter the day or time which we all know is nonsense. As an example let's assume 900 Glasgow fans attend Glasgow on a Friday night but only 650 on a Saturday night. They might be lucky and get 100 Edinburgh fans so would be worse off by 250 customers. As has been said fans can still do a northern tour and these fans say 50 are a welcome bonus but the bottom line is that both Glasgow and Edinburgh need to race when they can maximise attendance by there own fans and presumably that's why they both race on a Friday. Doesn't suit every fan but nothing will.
  7. So that's why they left the monarchs! Thanks for confirming what we all knew, the Armadale track isn't 'perfect'
  8. I wasn't going to comment but fairs fair, you do talk a lot of sense (sometimes)
  9. Presumably you'll wait until the new averages are out on May the 4th before signing Luke
  10. Thought it just said he won't be riding with Kyle Bickley next year
  11. Is this based on insider knowledge being a Peterborough fan, or your unbelievable abilities with a calculator - has the points limit been agreed and approved yet. or are you copying the Phil the Ace post from page 9. have to say the boy Nicol is going to be busy riding for at least half of the teams in CL
  12. We know; keep up. Jensen is Sam, not Rasmus
  13. And that was why Paul was crucial for the team - heat 14 wins. Sometimes I can't understand some of the 'comments/ criticism' that appears on here. If Paul scored well it tended to mean Claus didn't and vice versa. Claus was criticised mid way thru the season as having his usual dip yet by the end of the season he was incredible and had upped his average which, with due respect, at his age is something to be proud of.
  14. Id have Paul back as well. think he struggled a wee bit at home due to his engines but had just hit form when he suffered a really bad injury. From what I could see he is also a good team man. In the end it will be decided by the points limit but if it is 42 or 42.50, Paul to me would be a no brainer.
  15. I can't help thinking Perks is a classic example of a rider getting better and better with the more rides he gets. For him riding for 3 teams has worked really well. In other cases some riders are only getting 3 rides a week and are unable to improve and or afford to continue riding. Well done Mr Perks you have shown others it can be done.
  16. I'm sure that the infamous letter just emphasised that they the owners were not going through to armadale. It did not say on no account should tigers fans go through. And even if it did we've still gone through in our hundreds despite it being a trick track. Can't help thinking some monarchs fans are just trying to use any excuse to justify there absence. Why not just be honest and say we don't want to see our team get gubbed. I obviously exclude from this the decent Edinburgh fans who'll support there team through thick and thin as we did in our poor years
  17. For any travelling fans, it was dry yesterday, is currently dry and the forecast is dry. Although there's not much heat so wrap up
  18. Cook didn't look interested??? Blows his best engine yet still wins his next race aye right
  19. Goodness this is so funny take it your source is the same as Blobby. Good to see you are still taking an interest in speedway but so as your not accused of making things up, perhaps you could change your 'Team' to the former, sadly no more, extinct, RIP Workington Comets
  20. Ah that explains or should that be confirms everything some Glasgow fans have said about you, you wee .
  21. But I'm sure you didn't believe it and are just reporting what you heard albeit from a low life piece of manure
  22. What's the point of having weather forecasts when they change every day. We've had rain when they say it will be dry and this week they have forecast everything from heavy rain to dry! It wasn't meant to rain last night or this morning but the roads around me are sodden. And they are now forecasting rain later on. Looks as if I'll never get the grass cut
