  1. I would think most people know why we have Easter,but i would think very few know the reason why Easter weekend moves about every year
  2. Think some of that could be down to some of the people that use them.
  3. Only by the usual few. Good luck to Lambert,he wants to progress so it's good that he is gaining experience in different league.
  4. Indeed,but wouldn't you chase them up and check to make sure you would be racing at the start of the season.
  5. If you want to earn money you make sure yourself you are ready for the new season.Don't rely on others to do it all for you.
  6. You go on about how good your team is,if it's that good it shouldn't matter to the riders whether they are riding the track for the first time or the 21st time.Somerset isn't a tricky track like Wolves.Good riders will ride whatever track is there to ride. It seems you have got the excuses in early again just in case Somerset do beat you.
  7. So his situation isn't really personal then.He should be switched on for this kind of situation,and now only has himself to blame it seems for lack of meetings.
  8. Yes the riders would know the rules,but i think you have to give them a bit of slack at the start of the season.By all means get excluded and they will remember not to get off their bike after a few exclusions i'm sure.As regards footballers/rugby players they know the rules but they still try to get away with it. And at work again if you have done something for a while and they change it not everyone will do it right first time don't you agree.
  9. He started out at King's Lynn but don't think he is an asset of theirs.I'm sure i remember him being an asset of Peterborough whether that still remains i don't know.
  10. Probably the same place as Starman and Shovlar do as regards M.Ford and Poole
  11. Just to think if Matt Ford put a realistic price on Chris Holder say £15,000,Somerset may have taken that.And then Poole could have afforded team suits for their septet.
  12. I know a lot of it doesn't make sense.I assume because Cook,Holder and Doyle rode GB last season they would obviously keep their averages.As Iversen is above the average it doesn't seem to apply.Vaculik,i don't know.It's all a bit of a balls up really.
  13. Crazy isn't it,but i think all GP riders were given that average.Even more crazy when you think Poole have a couple of riders with even more out of date averages but they can keep them.
  14. Indeed there was a big Star as a mascot.Not been seen since Star Lady stopped attending.Now who was under that costume
  15. On a different note,because people always seem to focus on the bad points rather than the good. I see the club are looking to have a new mascot designed.They are asking for people to design a mascot which will in turn be made into a costumed character.The winning family will also receive free entry to the club’s home meetings throughout the year for two adults and all children under 16. The winners will also have their picture taken with the mascot in the centre of the track and get a chance to meet the riders. That's not a bad incentive to get your creative skills into action.I'm sure someone will come along and pick something wrong with this though
  16. As i said i don't really like it,but what you need is all the fans singing at the same time.If they do the it doesn't matter what the tune is as long as the words are good it would sound good.That tune still belts out around football grounds.I use to be part of 75,000 people that would sing that in the late 90's early 00's and it was terrific,especially when Shearer was in the stadium.
  17. Must admit i don't like the new anthem.But i can see what Lynn are trying to do,and that is to create an atmosphere.Most of us can remember the days of 2,4,6,8 and 1,2,3,4 they weren't much better but a lot of fans would chant it.Even if someone thought of something a bit more modern and punchy i don't think people would chant it anyway nowadays.The only way to get most fans singing and chanting would be to lace their teas and coffees with alcohol
  18. He did mention when interviewed pre-season last year that he could stay at Troy's or a friends in Whittlesey.
  19. I think that's what i said.They are not allowed to leave the circuit.But i have seen them leave the circuit if a crash has happened.
  20. As Daniel has answered 2 of your questions,although the one about stopping the riders returning to the pits at every opportunity it is in force already.They only return if there has been a crash.
  21. I hope you distribute the details of the supplier of the red shale to other promoters so if they want to use it they can.
