Not sure the word “crowd” applies to UK speedway any longer

The winner should be the top scorer from 20 heats (after any necessary run-off). It was bad enough when 21st heat was introduced to individual meetings, so that the winner could be the fourth best. Now the GP winner could be the tenth best. Nonsense!

All four riders who finished last “missed out”

Can we go back to 1994 when we had a proper World Speedway Championship

Great that there’s a tribute to Billy. But all the excitement on here about the second half heats!!! They used to be standard fare, and a damned good watch too. Go back to 13 heats and a full second half, including juniors’ heats.

I heard that. Pardon?

Conny Samuelsson was track record holder at Brandon at one stage

Oxford!

Please avoid Osbourne being referred to by initials. There was only one CO, Mr Charles Ochiltree. I thank you! 🐝

Always a sore point is that Nigel Boocock never received an honour

Mike Broadbank, without a doubt

Joe Owen

Crewe?

RIP Len

Many used to stay behind to watch GG in the “third half” at Brandon when he first started riding over here!

I seem to recall the CO organised The Warwickshire Flying Mile at Brandon, riders individually timed. Believe Ron Mountford was the winner.

“Would he of had it so easy” wasn’t predictive text, though!

Natalie Quirke was the best

Unless it’s by Monster!

Ouch! I remember several correspondences with Brian over the years, great to deal with. RIP Brian.

She is a total embarrassment

It doesn’t change the winning of the GP at all from how it is now!!! I agree that the winner should be the top scorer, hence my wording “if the semi-finals and final have to stay”
