SPEEDY69

It was a great GP, good close racing, easy travelling, easy entry and great view. Only downside were the beer queues and they're was no merchandise on sale apart from Czech Speedway and Dudek had a stall.

Morris was overseeing it, saw him earlier on, along with Tony Olsson. Credit to him as well as he went and thanked everyone on the centre green personally, marshalls, 1st aiders etc.

It's baking hot here and the queues for the beer are mental.

Me too!

Come on the foxes, bag a home win.

Klindt has to go, awful.

Stranger things have happened.

Absolutely right! And of course, risking a smaller crowd.

Is Zagar going to be out for a long time? I'd be more worried about Klindt.

I agree with your second paragraph but not the first. If they're a lot better, then they should have finished higher in the qualifier i.e. the British Final.

The trouble with dodgy call-offs is that fans lose trust and that is important. No-one will trust Lynn again when it comes to this because they've been caught red-handed before.

I thought he was out injured at the start of our season?

I see Beau Bailey is in the Aussie team - how long will it be before he gets a UK place?

Past: Gert Handberg & Jarek Hampel Present: Nikolai Klindt. Can think of many more of course but it all depends at what stage of their career as well.

Are you wanting people to name them?

The lumps that came off the bladed grader were solid and staff had to break them up, it didn't look sludgy to me as there wasn't much material at all. I'd have ridden it!

Could anyone that's been to the stadium tell me if cash is accepted or is it card payment only for food/drink? Also, I assume an e-ticket will be fine rather than have to collect a paper one from somewhere. I am coming to Prague for one night only so need to judge how much cash to bring. Thanks.

And that's why it's crumbling as a sport. Riders have too much power.

It wasn't.

Of course he'd say that and in any case it is up to the referee not the riders. A GP would've gone ahead on a surface as wet as that. Walking on it and finding it slippery is completely different to riding a bike on it. One or two races and it'd have been dry.

A blade would have made no difference, some riders clearly didn't want it on. There was barely enough shale on there to be bladed anyway!

It didn't need a blade, the track was fine. However we know about Aussies and wet tracks 😉 The track is smooth and consistent, the tail ways the dog again - a ref on the 80s-90s wouldn't have called that off. Those that turned up to watch will think again the next time there's a shower on the forecast and who can blame them.

As part of a larger interview - this was at the time when discussions on weight were going around. I think it's partially an excuse. On his day he can still mix it there, the PO final at the end of 2021 I'll bet Bewley & all had wished he had no pace 😁 4. Scott Nicholls - 1, 3, 3, 3, 3, 1' = 14+1

I don't recall that's quite what he said but in any case he was what, third highest scorer at Sheffield where many said he'd get nothing. Speedway is unpredictable and at the fantastic Glasgow track he outpaced them all recently. Would be good to have the British final there one year, maybe a GP too.
