Don't give them ideas!

My photo was taken at Wimbledon when I was presenting trophies to the Superstox final first three.

Now the troll has made you famous hagonshocker! The troll could at least get the message one day if it's one brain cell can be made to work.

At any pub or event always ask for a glass iced tap water which comes out £2.40 cheaper than you paid and I have never had anywhere refuse to supply the tap water although a few do moan!

I have a lot of sympathy for Kyle for the situation he has been left in. Before I retired from working for London Underground I was twice prescribed drugs by doctors that were on the banned list for Safety Critical work. I told the doctors that I could not take anything that was on the list and they assured me that what I had been prescribed were not a problem for me. Thankfully I asked a lot of questions before taking them and was very glad I had as on the second occaision I was Drugs and Alcohol tested and would have failed which would have lost me my job. When I told the doctor he said that what I take is up to me but he had told me it was OK so I consider he was in the wrong but I could not convince him of that. I am very pleased that Kyle has been cleared of any wrong doing and hope this incident will act as a wake up call to all riders so they do not fall into the same trap.

All this cruelty to plants should not be allowed.

According to the BSPA website the drugs in Kyle's system were prescribed by the hospital and he is cleared to race.

I am sure Wimbledon had notices about abandoned meetings for both Speedway and Dog Racing which were on the outside of the turnstiles.

Sadly heat two is the one race that does not have a time on Speedway Updates. I suspect the time may not have been announced.

FACT'S just ain't wot they used to be!

Now say that with a straight face!

Well done British Speedway, having not seen a meeting all season due to all the London tracks, Arena Essex and Rye House all no longer having racing I had finally decided to go to Kings Lynn for the NL Fours. Advance train ticket and hotel booked only for the date and track to be changed! This is not the first time this has happened to me but it is the last given that the reason for moving the meeting is riders not being available but on the new date other teams will have riders who are not available. I wonder if it depends on which team is missing riders as to how important it is considered? EDIT:- BSPA website has information on a contact if you are in my situation which is very fair. I am glad to say that I had already persuaded the hotel to refund and by a piece of very good luck a friend is spending the weekend with family in Kings Lynn that weekend and was moaning about the cost of rail tickets. My advance ticket was a lot cheaper than he had found so he has now got my ticket and we are both happy. Well done the organisers for thinking about the effects of the change they have made.

Personally I am a Stock Car and Hot Rod fan who nowadays regards Bangers as a chance to get a burger or go to the toilet! There is no excuse to not tidy up after yourself in any walk of life.

I never saw Speedway at Oxford although I did see Spedeworth, PRI and BriSCA Stock Car, Hot Rod and Banger racing there. Not a good track for the cars due to the narrow entrance and exits from the bends.

I always prefered Hackney, Wimbledon and New Cross to Wood Lane and Custom House. A simple matter of taste and I know lots of fans who prefer the big tracks but I have always liked the smaller ones.

Just shows how memory can play tricks on you! I was sure they closed at the end of the season when they won the title! Must be that my parents and I were so fed up with the racing at Wood Lane we didn't go in 1978. What i do know is that my mother and I did not enjoy their title winning season and thought my fater was lucky that he was not with us due to his work.

Maybe Wells is cheap, Buster likes cheap!

Both those are more likely than anything ZR says!

Sadly, the last season at White City produced the most boring season I had witnessed. The lack of action caused by the big scores the Rebels inflicted on the visitors. The second half of the season I tokk to scoring on a separate sheet of paper the scores of Red and Yellow against Blue and White. At least the score was closer even if it did nothing for the big gaps between the riders for most of each race.

It would be hard to be worse than her!

That is being very kind!

According to ZagarRacing's profile she is female!

Pre match discussion on trainers and post match discussion on jackets! Speedway is dealt with on the original thread.

As repetitive as a repeating groove on a record and twice as annoying.

The short lived and VERY NARROW track at Romford was at the old football stadium. I remember enjoying my visits as a young teenager but it may be due to rose tinted spectacles syndrome!
