The GP series has moved on though at the expense of British speedway.!! -
You have had a nasty agenda against Gustix/ Mr Hyam for years why not keep your nasty vendetta going against me.?. Be great we could always have a chat over the speedway maybe a pint ?? don't bully just be measured.!!!

Don't get so personal like you always do you are a clown and a bully so why don't you pick on me.?

Time British Speedway went AMATEUR

I would say Moxey the racing now is not as good as in years gone by the odd good race of course but overall no.I still enjoy speedway but the entertainment generally is not that great i preferred it when the bikes were slower.I am with you on the team element factor in years gone by at Swindon Hitch,Munday, Keen, Duke (ect) were no world beaters but they were loved by the home fans were great value and the working man/lady could relate to them.I often think Swindon started some years knowing damn well that they would not win anything but Swindon speedway on a Saturday night was a profitable night.This was because teams kept a regular core of favourite riders which the fans grew to love. -

Rick Miller was a rider who really turned his career around at first he struggled bigtime but stuck at it and ended up World class. -
Your Owner promoter being head of British speedway should of grasped transparency is very important to everybody.If he has not got a team sorted out say so, but to say nothing is madness.Is he going to leave it to February and then just expect or PRESUME fans will turn up i believe this year more fans are going to pick and choose there meetings so drumming up interest is crucial.You look at my club things are not stable there track wise, rumours galore but they announced there team nice and early and fair play to Rossiter on that front.I worry for King's Lynn surely to have Andersson at reserve they must have something up there sleeves?? if they haven't you would of thought it would be very important to have two strong reserves all year Kerr/ Auty spring to mind.

Spot on great post Clive Hitch was my rider that comes into the category of the one's you named.
-
More so on listening and reading articles on him and respecting the view points of the likes of yourself, Norbold , Chaplin, (ect) .Also my uncle spoke about him he did not see him ride as he was from the Parker/ Langton era he raved about him. My take is four riders i believe for different reasons were robbed of the chance to show there real GREATNESS (ie) Farndon ,Duggan, Huxley, Craven all in a top 20 of alltime.

Last year Steve the track was pretty poor all year and we all know just how good Nick can be at the Abbey.Then he had a three week period when he fell in nearly the same spot three times running when in winning position's that really drained his confidence.Wolves have got a good rider there and i would love Nick to rejoin the Robins again in the future i really hope Nick does well. But Nick needed a new challenge and he will more and likely do some damage to the Robins over the season good luck to him anyway.

How do you view the NL now Vince ? do you like the direction it is going in.The few meeting's i have seen going back to the Conference i have really enjoyed it.We have some great kids coming through now do you think there is still a place for old hands in that league.? -
A great signing did well in his stint with Leicester and he impressed me before at King's Lynn in the U21s.For me he is at the level of Musielak and he has improvement in him the biggest plus is he can win races and against nearly everybody in this league pleased for the Witches fans.
-
I think Kings Lynn have missed a trick they could of had the likes of Auty/ Kerr at reserve all year.Unless they have a big signing sorted and if Iversen does give the UK a miss Kings Lynn with Anderssen at reserve look really weak.
-
Not really i can't believe, Andersen at Kings Lynn has been re signed a strange one even in a watered down league Andersen will struggle.
-
Away from home will he average over 7???
-
I have never had a problem with Starman or Mr Flange.
-
Bjerre is the key for me , he is so quick when he is at his best and if he can challenge Fricke then Belle Vue have two big scorers.Then that means there is not so much pressure on Dan when he comes back but if Bjerre is flakey that could change things.
-
What riders. do you think can improve there figures in 2019. ? 1.Fricke. - 2.Lidsey. - 3.Allen. - 4.Bradley Wilson Dean. - 5.Holder. - 6.Thorssell. - 7. Musielak. _ 8.Wajtknecht. - 9.Wright. - 10.Kurtz.
-
Tungate i know he has a high average but you would of thought Kings Lynn or Ipswich ( has a history with C.L?) would sign him.Last year at the NSS he was so exciting to watch and did a great job so i was very surprised Belle Vue let him go.I actually think there could be a little more to come from Rohan because on his day he is a superb rider. Lidsey i believe will swap places with Wells eventually and end up in the top 5 and he could well average 6. - 6.50 he is a real prospect.
-
You can say what you want about me i could not care less sticks/stones !!!! But the truth is you are the most disliked bloke on the forum.
-
I doubt they bother reading your crap either.
-
In the watered down PL maybe but his World Championship days are finished.
-
I think the old Chris has gone now on the decline he will still ride at a good level though.
-
Track looks a lovely shape outside gates look terrible though.Fricke/ Tungate look quick Kurtz again throws in one bad ride Lidsey looks terrific that year in Poland has brought him on.
