I think the green was dropped as being like a bad luck colour or something.Pretty sure it was blamed for a string of injuries one particular year.Maybe someone else can shed more light on this.

King is a Lynn asset,was told when he was practising at Lynn before the British Final last year.He was practising on a Sunday during an amateur meeting.

If a team wanted them and they agreed terms i don't think there is anything stopping them. By the way Cook is riding for Workington,a championship team

Shovlar's got one hooked already

Ah bless.I only see Lynn there once last season and you could double the amount of passes than what you saw in four .Maybe just your riders can't get to grips with the track.But then most people think the tracks are rubbish when their teams get beat on it.The track isn't perfect but it isn't as bad as you are trying to make out. Just realised this is the Coventry supporters thread,thought it was Leicester's sorry to you Coventry fans.

Gone fishing again i see

Thought you had got the solicitors in already on Darcy's behalf

He's certainly had to solve a few problems for a few clubs for the coming season.

I don't know what era you done all this,probably the 80's like me.But there isn't the opportunities like this anymore for the young ones.Paper rounds are pretty much a thing of the past,and any local land,nursery work seems to be only available to the Eastern Europeans.My daughter has to attend college and also on a Friday does a work experience which is unpaid. How different it is from the 80's when i also worked during holidays and evenings after school.I don't blame any unfortunate 16-18 year old that doesn't have a penny to their name.I blame the government. King's Lynn charge a concession rate for college students.But now as it is i would like to see the rate reduced to between child rate and adult rate.Something like £10 for students would be ok.

Forgot about Dennis,he happened to be my mates favourite rider when riding for Lynn.

Having spent a bit of time in Sweden that year,a certain Mr Hellsen wasn't still riding then was he?

Oh right.Must admit all my years seem to roll into one and i can't remember who was where and when.Could Alan Littlechild have been on the scene then.Remember times in champs nightclub and plenty of beers,thats probably why i can't remember exactly dates of certain owners.Remember Nigel Leaver doing a whip round in champs as he had blown an engine and his girlfriend having to do a strip to the waist for it. Best party invite i got though was when me and my brother were invited to Henka's for a late night party after a meeting when he was living in Enmeth.Though's were the days :t: . They were the days when you could get friendly with riders and have a drink with them.Bit different now.

Agree with you on that.Loved watching Henka from the first time i saw him at the World Final at Bradford in 1990.I seem to recall seeing Buster saying to us after the meeting very excitedly we've signed we've bloody signed him(sure it was Buster). I think Trees is right in what she says too,that most people will say/think that they have seen the most exciting/best riders when they(the fan) are in their younger years.

Yes looks good,also a full August too which is good in my book.Only at work for 3 meetings which is pretty good too,started my rain dances already

Not bad really considering the calibre of riders he was up against.5pts from 4 rides,and one of those were a tapes exclusion.He beat Ljung,Lindgren,Grajczonek and Kasprzak twice.

Well i enjoyed listening to what Buster had to say.Is this a first for a BSPA chairman to answer questions like this?It was always going to have some niggles regarding getting it aired.And it was always going to have the the usual suspects slating it.

Close,but sounds like

I wonder how you noticed that,somebody must be doing the same

If you listen to Ford,and not to people on here,why the hell do you come on here.

Hope your not being serious

Wilkinson won't fit in with the limit anyway.

Using my logic?All i said is you get what you pay for.I didn't use admission costs or anything. But if you want to use admission costs £6x15,000 is alot more than £18x1,500.Plus the cost of build would be more expensive here.

I must apologise GRW123,i didn't really think it would offend you so much.I must have took it wrong when you said in your post that the spanner lay on the track for some time.As you thought it was a mirror i thought this too was a reason to say something.

Well according to football stats Coventry only average 2,000 less than what Bounemouth do.So because the are league one that means nothing.Lets not forget Bournemouths ground only holds just over 11,000.

If all clubs in GB had huge bank balances i'm sure our stadiums would be just as good.I'm afraid though you get what you pay for.So don't expect to much.But at least it will be new.
