  1. Me too Blobby,we got dusty up on 3rd bend Friday night,but I didn't hear anyone complain because they were treated to a great night of racing.
  2. No,not really imo.Done the same at the fanzone in Manchester Friday.Thing is he actually means to do it.You don't see any other sportsmen go out of their way to swear when being interviewed,not intentionally anyway.
  3. Having listened to the podcast today,I didn't realise Hawkins was such bad loser.Shake hands win,lose or draw c'mon sort yourself out.Well done Louis though👍
  4. Can't see Kvech getting near what he got Monday,his gating isn't the best and Sheffield are so strong at home.
  5. I would say pure adrenaline would have got Kurtz through Saturday anyway.It's afterwards when the adrenaline subsides is when you seem to feel the pain.Just because he rode an extra 2 heats doesn't make him fit or else the same could be said about Doyle.
  6. Looks like you have missed someone off having the tactical🫢
  7. Sheffield R/R for Pickering,Lynn R/R for Cook.Harrison is the rising star. Unfortunately I can see another defeat for the Stars on the road.Sheffield are weaker without Pickering but are so strong at home that I can only see a home win.Would have been nice if Lynn could have got a guest for Cook,this would have put a lot less pressure on the reserves.Harrison will have to take 4 rides now.
  8. Well it obviously stood in 2023.Anyway that wasnt my point as I said earlier,I was replying to you when you said if Lynn got a no1 then they would have to have a 3 pointer.This is clearly not the case as of this month anyway😊
  9. The final issue of the averages of that season had him on a 7.81 average.If you was to take of the 2.5% Brit reduction that would leave him on about 7.61.Anyway regardless of that i was just pointing out that Lynn wouldn't end up having a 3 pointer at reserve even if they got a no1 with an average of 9.
  10. Lynn wouldn't have a 3 point reserve.If for instance Lynn got rid of Cook and Iversen that would give Lynn 14.27 to use before month end,that's Zmarzlik and a 5.27 rider😁.Cook/Klindt would give you 13.90 that's a 9 pointer and a 4.90 rider.None of them nowhere near a 3.If they were to tempt Lambert(which they won't )they could have something like 6.66 or 6.29.Or actually if Cook was to ride you could bring Lambert in for Klindt.So they could quite easily get a no1 in without having to get a 3 pointer.When I say easily,I mean on the average fitting idea,not actually being able to convince a no1 to come and ride here.
  11. At this present time you only have about 7.54 to play with to replace Cook,who is apparently back next week anyway.You wouldn't really get a number 1 on that average imo.Lambert would come closest though on around a 7.61 I think.Lambert could replace Klindt? Good all round performance last night in the end,with only Iversen not performing.He'a had a strange season stat wise,only 3 race wins until he wins 3 at Oxford on Thursday,then he had 2 last places all season until he gets 3 last night,without his 2 exclusions oʻ🤔
  12. He certainly didn't go into the fence slowly as he sped up half way down the back straight.Plus he hit the fence reasonably hard with his bike finishing about 20/30 yards away from him.I'm not sticking up for him as I am glad he has gone,but is there really anyone that intentionally hits the fence.Least of all Boughen as he doesn't like any contact with anyone or anything by looks of his performances this season.
  13. Well there was a little band of us attended the Friday meeting and thoroughly enjoyed the racing,and the result of course👍.As has been said though the downside was the organisation.We were in the East stand we got in ok,although my daughter and her friend had their bags tagged not checked though🤔.I was ok with the food no problem.There was no signs or information where to get programmes.Went to our seats,thought we were in the wrong section as the seats we thought we were in were taken.They were our seats but the people were told to sit there by stewards as there seats didn't exist.Could not hear the annoy whatsoever.My daughter witnessed stewards pushing people back trying to get into the East stand.Lessons to be learnt,hopefully Saturday went a bit more smoothly. We stayed over in the City centre and couldn't fault that whatsoever, lovely city with loads to do,China town,museums, galleries, trams,trains, bars,restaurants all on our doorstep,so much to do.Only a 10min train ride to the speedway,£4 return. All in all we will definitely be back next year👍
  14. Like I said,there are some fans at every track that will boo the opposing riders no matter who's at fault.That goes for Ipswich too they arenot all whiter than white like you believe 😉
  15. Whatever track it's held on at in the UK that would be the same.If Doyle done that move at Ipswich and took someone out the other rider would have got the boos bo doubt.Even more so if it was Holder at Sheffield.Goes with the territory.
  16. Has been very good,100% better than Cardiff.Just need to brush up on the organisation of the event by hmm,about 100%.
  17. Absolutely love this track,but the organisation here tonight is absolutely garbage.People being shut out for a few races,people in our seats saying there seats don't exist so sit anywhere.No information where to get programmes,no sound on bends 3 and 4,can't hear a fu@£ing thing.My daughter spoke to Mark Lemon saying its a shambles and he said it totally is and he is fuming.
  18. Can't believe we are here in the city centre having a beer outside in our shorts.I love global warming🫣
  19. I see that,so in the end I could have gone to the Saturday one as well.Too late now though as I would need to book Sunday off work🤨
  20. Great result,glad I paid for the stream at the last moment now🙂.They all chipped in and done their bit although there is still room for improvement from a couple imo. Special mention for Jody Scott,beat his opposing rising star,that is more than we can ask for.It's nice to see him still trying when he is at the back.
