  1. never let the speedway get in the way of a good tractor race. With all the hot air on the BS forum we could be doing with E x T r a c t o r F a n s
  2. Can confirm the Legend of the blue n gold was majestic. He had the best race/overtake I have ever seen at Berwick.
  3. If tracks are heavy some Edinburgh boys will struggle, especially Mark. To have a chance think Monarchs will need to finish second. On paper you would go with Glasgow Somerset final. But weather permitting could see a Newcastle Edinburgh one. Still feel whoever finishes top are Champions but it does keep season alive and we all know the play off gig at start of season.
  4. When they wanted to encourage YOUNG GB riders, it should have been. 1) Age as at 31 December 2016. 25 years and under. 2) an allocation of seven points to be split between 2 GB eligible reserves. Go with a 4.00 and a 3.0 or say 3.2,3.8 etc.
  5. Totally humped the Monarchs and still moaning. You have a good team Glasgow. Celebrate that. Seems to be a bit after the Lord Mayors show with some of the Edinburgh boys. Points make prizes boys. Get back on the treadmill, quickly please.
  6. Proud of team GB, especially our Cookie.Felt GB public cheated by Hancock, why wasn't it announced in Sweden he wouldn't be riding in Manchester. Hans? Not impressed. Pedersen should have been in Danish team on Friday. Aussie hopes were dashed when Max got injured. Once again like it or loathe it joker played a big part. Great when it works for us. Shouldn't be such a thing when it doesn't.
  7. Not a fan ofTai the man after the histrionics in Cardiff and previous behaviour but credit where it is due, what a great performance from Tai the rider and a great interview after the meet, showed a lot more maturity. Great mentality, not here to win silver but pleased with it. That is the mindset that great sportsmen have. Interesting what could have happened if Doyle hadn't been excluded. gB with a gold? Well done to Cookie, been a tough year for him and at last something has gone his way.
  8. Fantastic meeting tonight. Great to see Max getting rewarded for his efforts and Wee Dan was a joy to watch. Brilliant racing from Kevin. Thanks to Stevie, Ulrich and MPT.
  9. . Shouldn't matter if referee is male or female but I do think this referee is good enough to referee a GP.
  10. Looks like it. Thought this forum gave people including me a chance to give an opinion. Obviously not.
  11. Great to see a referee taking a firm stance and not copping out and putting all four back. Great decision.
  12. There will be more races with superb passing but anybody will be hard pressed to find a better example of team riding. #MonTheFish.
  13. Riders have sworn in the past in anger, frustration at refereeing decisions or incidents on the track. Woffinden knew what he was doing when the microphone was in front of him. Needing to grow up.
  14. Monarchs - 11 points from 4 riders. Garcia 13 points for Glasgow from reserve spot. Credit to Dan but our other three were posted missing. Need to get a run of home wins to get up the league. Maybe have been a different season if Mark Riss had started it rather than Etheridge.
  15. It is near Susan Boyle Country George. I dreamed a dream and all that.
  16. End of last season Victor was one I would have liked Monarchs take a chance on with a relatively low average for 2016. Fortunate that Stevie wasn't riding tonight as Newcastle deservedly would have won. Strong unit when all seven are available. Would fancy them against any team home and away.
  17. Any plans to put Jye back at number 2 IF promotion are going to stick with him? Monarchs a bit exposed in heat 14.
  18. Cookie has bust a gut this year to try and ride regularly in Poland but hasn't been given a fair crack at it. Everyone goes on about how old he is at the same time we welcome Scott Nicholls back into Team GB reckoning. couldn't make it up.
  19. You've not got just a great rider but an excellent team man. Wish Cookie all the best. He has deserved more chances in Poland.
  20. Yeah, I know the 5.00 point scenario. I just meant in points actually scored, we could have 3 guys scoring on average less than 3 points a match. Agree with you Jenga, Dan must stay.
  21. Well said. Don't think young Max is at a stage in his career when he should be riding in 3 divisions. In an article somewhere he said that Stevie Worrall has done it but with all due respect he ain't no Stevie Worrall. A bit more aggression required away from home. While young Dan is developing we need Max to step up his game. Could the averges soon show Edinburgh with three riders averaging less than 3 points a match. We must keep Dan, if we don't someone else will snap him up.
  22. At the Meeting last night. Well done to both teams and track staff and all concerned with getting the Meeting finished. Surprised there was a parade at the start. Circumstances not helped by a good few riders taking 2 rides on the trot. Edinburgh , Well done to the top three and Erik who in his last few races looked very strong. Dan the (Wee) Man one for the future and once Steve Lawson works on his gating one for the very near future. Has some guts which Max seems to be lacking on wet tracks and surely riding in three leagues will take its toll. Monarchs need him to up his game. Can't judge Jye on a few meetings but he seems to be struggling with his equipment. We can't go a full season with a 4 man team, need at least 5 to function
  23. We could just ride with 6 riders with same points limit. Declare new 6 man team. Gives all the other teams a chance this season. Saves on expenses . More room in the pits. Sorted!!!!!
