Well of course I didn't mean to complain about the selections, they are fair and half of them can be very exciting riders I don't think there are any 4 riders that could help bring the GP interest back for me, is what I should have said.

It was the obvious four...well it was to most people at least. Sadly, that bunch won't ignite my interest in a series that I've not enjoyed for a few years already. And this $200,000 Super Prix nonsense isn't gonna do that either. Pity... I was hoping IMG would be good news, from my own selfish viewpoint, but so far so...not Reading that translation GW, I think it's time to stop bothering with poltran.com

I'm quoting it just to see if I read it correctly ! As for Zagar getting a wildcard...no chance ! I expect the blondes to get into the GP series...

The more times I see the race the more I can't believe people use words like "shocking" ...you can only be joking surely ?! It was a massive race on a crap track where no-one should expect favours. I like both riders, all three in fact...but I fail to see how Harris even deserves credit from it. The mistake, if any, was his, in going too fast into the bend to hold the line. Scott was already on that faster inside line, and Bomber got in the way. 100% perfectly correctly decision by the referee. It was no more than a shoulder barge and if Chris can't hang on to those then he's peaked already ! And I don't believe he has, so he and many of you should really get over it, and quick... Sorry

zzzzzzzzzzz.....

Good points f-s-p, but it's the British way of life you're trying to change At the moment 'the public' love Chris and hate Scott...and last night's race was perfect for the moaning majority to scream about. I'm glad Scott's in, and Rune Holta as well. In the whole series they entertained me a lot more than Chris did. He had one good GP before a brilliant Cardiff and nothing since. He should be much better next year, and hopefully he learnt something in Germany. Bomber is certain, as is AJ, of a wildcard place. So I'm happy with the result and have no problem with how it came about

Very well done to sccoter, the new Champ who held his nerve and his long-time lead. He picked up almost 7 and a half million Credits in this GP, just too much for 2nd-placed Chris to make up. Most of the leaders did well...but not T.N.T. who saw his Credits go down with Hans Andersen. All-in he lost over a million tonight...nobody else lost more than 20,000 ! Bad luck or what ?! More than 29.8 million Credits gained in this GP...impressive Special mention has to go to the only player who got ALL FOUR FINALISTS tonight. A few of you got three, but only one got the full house. Take a bow... Seb the Snail Correct me if I'm wrong with any of this, but I think that makes it 1st and 3rd for Coventry. 2nd belongs to Rye House. With another two Bees fans inside the Top 6 ! Jacques is top female...the first time it hasn't been London Witch, as LW finishes in 23rd. A better year for the girls all round though, with at least six in the Top 15. And I think it's another year as Best International for Timbo...down in 22nd, but I can't see anyone higher. tommy is Polish Champion Oh and the irony of a Poole fan being the biggest loser Well done PTW (What happened to big-mouth beat-you-all favourite Saint Rob ? 9th...) Thanks for the positive comments, and for competing of course ! It's been fun

You've gotta get out more... Ref could've called it either way, Scott did what he felt he had to and got away with it. That's speedway racing...ask Gollob, ask Nicki etc

Okay then, in addition, this is the inaugural... Losers Cup It's open to the players listed below...(although many won't bother, or even notice, so it should be easy for the confident favourite Saint Rob to win comfortably) Simple rules... You have 1000 Credits, you must use them all up in bets. Pick 4 riders to bet on, the odds are the same as written above. There is no 'bonus' for getting all four into the Final, it's more about picking the successful outsider(s) and betting the right amounts on each of your riders... In the event of a tie for Top Loser...there will be a caged fight arranged, three 2 minute rounds, no eye-gouging...sorry icon_smile_tongue.gif The best loser will be decided on countback - whoever lost the most Credits at the time they dropped out of the main competition.

Having never installed it myself, I can't say... If you click to send a PM to SCB requesting help with it, I believe he knows of a site that should be fine to use. As well as being able to answer your concern. Indeed so... Soz

Excel is still by far the most common spreadsheet, which is why the one in my siggy is on it. It's only ten minutes to download freeware that runs Excel. But if you like, to save you doing that, I can just tell you it's free and updates overall scores during the meeting as well.

Polish clubs generally pay little for using the stadia. Gate receipts don't even nearly cover rider wages. The clubs, due to those that run them, are political minefields in many cases. It's all about "sponsorship"... ...can't say much more, but it's surprising they're not all sponsored by Sketchley's, get the idea paulr ?

Fantastic idea...wish I'd thought of that years ago... Good luck with it

Certainly ! Scotty didn't pay the FIM enough to avoid it, he probably got cocky and thought it was a joke...but no, not even the former British Champion could break the jinx, despite desperate riding in the Cardiff semi Everyone fancied oddball Freddie to do well in Malilla, but again...the jinx held him back. As a wildcard he probably wasn't aware of it though, so he's gotta be excused Let's see how the former Polish Champion gets on with it

That's because they've all done there homework and avoided it ! Very professional, I'd say

Riding order 1 Matej Žagar Slov 2 Christian Hefenbrock Ger 3 Chris Harris GB 4 Tomasz Gollob Pol 5 Leigh Adams Aus 6 Hans Andersen Den 7 Nicki Pedersen Den 8 Jason Crump Aus 9 Andreas Jonsson Swe 10 Antonio Lindbäck Swe 11 Wiesław Jaguś Pol 12 Bjarne Pedersen Den 13 Jarek Hampel Pol 14 Greg Hancock USA 15 Rune Holta Pol 16 Scott Nicholls GB So Gollob gets the jinxed No.4 slot... And Heat 2 looks uncomfortable for Adams, Nicki, Hans and Crump !

For this final round, and particularly as it's the celebratory 100th Grand Prix, I had thought about something extra...like picking the winner of the big-money final, to double your final score. But it seems obvious now that most would go for big favourite Nicki...so I've dropped that idea. Instead, you don't have to think about the winner, just stick to who will make the Final. The difference is, for this GP... Pick 4 riders. Doesn't matter about finishing order... ...and it's worth pointing out that you don't have to have ALL 4 in the final (so you don't HAVE to back Nicki if you think he'll make it), you just have to pick the 'other riders' that DO make it, and they will give you the bigger winnings. To give the best opportunities for huge Credits to be won, I'm being generous with all the 'odds' except for little Nicki's... Enjoy...

Never mind LDubya, a late change of plan means you still have an outside chance of a Top 3 finish well a remote possibility would be more accurate, but you can do anything, so Good Luck ! (you should have backed Scott anyway !)

Well unless Scott can pull off a shock victory in Germany, I'm guessing he'll be campaigning for a permanent wildcard slot to be given to Mikael Max

Nice set-up line He's only 2 points ahead of 9th ! I can't imagine why you'd say such a thing...

Hans' GP season ended after Nicki had words with him after their 'clash' in Malilla. Coincidence maybe, or Nicki got into his head and it's really messed Hans up... Hans has had 16 races since that fateful Semi...and out of 51 possible points he's scored 11 ! He rides like a beaten man in the GP's

Both Scott and Rune guaranteed selection for next year, last night. Whether it's required or not, remains to be seen...but they will both be there imo. Without any doubt at all. Shame Bjarne's back in. Hampel is THE most boring rider around, not interested in him returning next year. I'd be well pleased if Greg drops out, but it's unlikely... Zagar can take at least a year out. Anyway, like I say...Scott and Rune are definites...
