  1. It was a fantastic meeting no matter who you are a fan of!!! . Take it that you were just on the updates then...... As regards to the tractor racing. Why they persist with the 'whirly thing' I don't know.... All it does is smooth the track and does not grade the shale back inside. Enter steady's request to the tractors driver to being dirt back to the inside line. Bring back the old type grader.
  2. Weather forecast looks good for P&P on thursday Any gossip to report???
  3. Not on the conversion site I looked at... Havin said that, another quotes... 1 pound in 1940 is widely rated as very roughly equivalent to about 40 to 45 pounds now. which equals £4000 Read more: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_would_1_pound_in_1940_be_worth_today#ixzz2JN3pJh9D
  4. Watched the film last night. Interesting comment that Dirk Bogarde (as a top rider) stated he earned £90 per week which is equivalent to £1500 in todays money. Nothing extortionate, but they were getting crowds of up to 30,000. I bet today's promoters wish they could go back 60 years in time
  5. Well.... Off we jolly well go :lol: Let's try to kick some ass. Not long to go now
  6. Simple answer. If he scores heat leader points he gets heat leader pay. If he scores second string points he gets second string pay and if he scores reserve points he gets reserve pay. Simple conclusion - score heat leader points all the time and you will be quids in. What better incentive....
  7. Skidmore made his 'rookie' debut part way through the 2009 season and finished with 5.87 average. Nothing to suggest (yet) that the new 5 pointers cannot do the same......
  8. Probably not... The more I think about the last place, the more I would like to see someone like Dak North to fill it. Steady home average and decent away average last year.
  9. With the potential of this team, the next important step is to aquire a motivational Team Manager. that alone is worth 5 points per match
  10. Wonder what average he comes in with? Then we can play "fill the last 4 places" ......
  11. Steady also signed for Kings Lynn in the Elite. Going to be a busy boy.....
  12. You know what they say.... Live in Hope - Work in Castleton
  13. Wonder if SWC have some spare cash to splash like with Ashworth?????
  14. Obviously the money offered by any PL club wont cover the costs of steadys bike preperation reading between the lines in that article. And if the rumoured wage cap is anything to go by....
  15. And stay with Thursday night.... :t: :party: :t:
  16. Thats the difference..... Ours is unofficial
  17. Good to see Birmingham consulting and obtaining feed back from the fans on change of racenight. Wonder if Sheffield might do the same
  18. As per the Sheffield Star on a 5 point average
  19. Only at amateur level on a visitors visa though........ so that could rule him in
  20. I'd go with Koppe if they can research his family tree for some sort of british ancestry :party:
  21. Strange how a certain team in Scotland is trying to move away from Sunday racing to improve crowds. Whoever new supporters the club attracts will surely be negated by the ones they may lose.
