  1. Just seen Ayres is off to hospital tonight after a crash at Redcar.Hope it's just precautionary and that he will be fit to ride next week for the Stars.
  2. The Brhel day's Topinka's early days were ok.Mainly down to me being younger ,Saturday nights and Champs night club.I remember losing a lot too,and going to many away matches to see them getting beaten.We won at Reading though but we got there after the last race after breaking down.Seem to recall seeing a win at Long Eaton though.
  3. Also the bikes are so highly tuned(some)once out in front they will take some catching.All i am saying it can't just be the track can it.Surely if everyone was on the same equipment the best most skillful rider will come through. How many years ago?The racing wasn't that brilliant in the old PL days.People tend to forget this as we were winning everything then.
  4. I think the track and Buster are getting some undeserved flack.I know it wouldn't happen,but if all riders had the same equipment and they rode the same track i bet you would get a lot better racing.
  5. Golmolski 6.43,Klindt 6.36 but drops to 6 Monday
  6. Klindt's of course,who's average you thought might drop.
  7. Wasn't that last year .Poland,GB,Sweden and Australia i believe
  8. Especially after his performance tonight.Not sure of his average though,and how many leagues he rides in,if indeed he rides in the top Polish league.
  9. So both of those options can be like for like then. Personally if i was making changes i would try to get a rider to replace KK on near his average say 9 and the same with Klindt a 6 that is 15 pts worth,why waste 2.75 points straight away by re-declaring
  10. You could tell it was different just looking at it from the outside.It didn't look as dark to me.And when it came flying over the fence it seemed more tackier,a bit like the old PL days. The racing wasn't great but i still maintain it doesn't help when there was such a difference in class of riders.
  11. It's the only way really once your team average is over the points average.KK and Klindt then.
  12. More than one change would mean making your team fit within the 42pt limit.You are 1.31 over at the moment so can't see that happening.Once KK is back in your side you will be even further over the 42 pts making it even more unlikely.Like for like i reckon if your going to make a change.
  13. Agree with you there.Think Star Fever is going just purely on Sedgemen's score at Lynn.Sedgemen's average is lower than Jorgensen's average in both leagues.
  14. Milik didn't get an extra ride because he was pants,apart from ht 20.Didn't like the track early doors when it was grippy.
  15. So we strengthened when we got Lambert for Bailey,then Jorgensen for Porsing.Then bringing in Ayres to share with Lambert we were bang on the 50pt limit.How much stronger can you get if you are at the limit thats it.
  16. It never was going to good racing with the gulf in class of riders.It was better when a Czech or American made the gate though.If they could have made the gate all night the racing would have been great.
  17. Well i've just seen the real Chris Holder tonight.I expect him to turn up for all the remaining Lynn matches now.
  18. Matt is ruthless enough as we have seen in the past. As for Milik,if he was to drop a league would Ford's pockets be deep enough to afford him.
  19. I'm assuming Barkers average has been reduced as he will be riding in a slightly tougher league.Jorgensen at Lynn was signed on a 7.3 then immediately dropped to 6.08 once the 42pt average kicked in.He is still 7.3 at Workington.So i would say Barker has gained an average slightly lower than Jorgensen's so would fit into the 42pt limit with Rye House. Just a side thought,although Rye House have done nothing wrong,these moves just highlight what is wrong with British speedway.Two British riders are out of a Job and an Aussie now has 2 again.I guess this sort of issue doesn't just happen in speedway though at the moment.
  20. Little better for GB to qualify straight through.Still Aussies are favourites i think.
  21. I think even if it's the best race track in the world tonight the racing won't be great.The problem i see is there is such a difference in class of riders on show. You might get the odd race where it's someone like Wells,Milik,Harris and Morris in it you may get a decent race.But for every one of those races you may get about 5-6 races where you get Stichauer,Doyle,Worrall and Becker.
