  1. I feel for the two young Aussies as they are being flung in at the deep end being in the main body . I thought we would have introduced one new Aussie , but not two at the same time . Though we'll probably never know what went on behind with scenes regarding Monsieur Bellego and how he's found himself at Berwick instead of gracing the stripes .
  2. Who knows what can happen , you're right enough .
  3. Wolverhampton wont finish bottom of the PL , i can be pretty sure of that .
  4. I think we've had our time in the sun mate . Can't honestly see our team of three heat leaders and four reserves avoiding enough last places in heats to figure at the important end of the table sadly .
  5. Going by results in Australia , Ipswich seem to have acquired the 2012 version of Nick Morris . If he can translate his Australian scores into PL scoring , then Ipswich will be very difficult to stop .
  6. But Vissing isn't new to the PL , having rode for Stoke a few seasons back .
  7. Any Plymouth fans aware of the dates for our KO Cup tie down there so i can book flights . The EL fixtures were in the Speedway Star this , but not the PL ones .
  8. You better pick us in the Premier Trophy . Once a year at Redcar isn't nearly enough .
  9. Oh i don't know , i think the lovely Heather's predictions are perfectly possible .
  10. Best pint - Somerset Best trackside pub - Rye House Worst viewing - Edinburgh Best after meeting piss-up - Berwick Best pre-meeting session - New Barrack Tavern Sheffield Journey from hell - Glasgow to Plymouth Most welcoming fans - Redcar Track most missed - Stoke Most useless track bar - Ipswich . Dont let you in till 45 minutes before the start and the bar shuts about 10 minutes after heat 15 . Most over-priced bar - Newcastle Biggest dump in the PL - sorry , but it's the Glasgow track bar - it's an embarrassment . Best day out of the season - the PLRC at it's spiritual home . Best viewing , back straight at Glasgow or from outside the bar at Redcar and Scunthorpe ( i don't like to move too far ) Coldest stadium - Workington / Berwick / Edinburgh , take your pick Best food - Somerset
  11. Good god i'd thought we'd seen the last of Werner in the PL , seems not
  12. Plymouth has a hell of a lot going for it . Ok geographically it's a bit out of the road , but so are we . For travelling visiting fans , there's a Travel Inn about 5 minutes walk from the track ( through the Sainbury's car park ) . We were on the 3rd/4th bend the night Glasgow were there and the viewing was fine , even though there was a decent sized crowd in . All you need is a bar with draught beer on , instead of just a hut selling cans and you'll be sorted . I don't normally like wee small tracks as a rule , but the track produced good racing that night - so no complaints on that score either .
  13. Morris would still put a point and a half at least on that average next season , especially should Ipswich indeed turn out to be his destination . His form round there on his 3 visits last season was nothing short of spectacular . Morris , Heeps , Poole and Tungate would be an exciting prospect lining up in the same side . Not so sure about Doolan and Risager though .
  14. It did happen years ago with Ole Olsen , when it was rider control . Think it was Wolves he was told to go to , but he refused as he wanted to go to Coventry .
  15. We realise it's not a dig at Glasgow , and we all realise Nick Morris will be riding his speedway away from Possilpark next year . We have no problem where he ends up , and i'm sure the club that signs him and our promotion will be able to thrash out a deal to suit both parties . The only problem we have in the condescending way Snackette puts forward his arguement . He might well be right , but he's so smug i just pray he isn't .
  16. Yup , think i'd go with Tsunami too , who has considerably more experience in these matters than the editor of the Speedway Star .
  17. Yeah i know , i read it . It will be a cracking day out that .
  18. Kudos if it's true , but i thought you had to have FIM status to get these types of meeting . But i hope it's true , it will be awesome .
  19. Yup , better off where you are . I can , sadly , see another winter of discontent coming up in Planet Lala . The PL should actually have a seperate conference .
  20. We say this every season though Badge . Too many wee tight tracks nowadays and the bikes are too powerful for them .
  21. I love the rolling averages . Nick Morris started the season on something like 4.67 , he's banged in double-figure scores home and away all season and he's now only at 5.02 and still at reserve . All hail the rolling averages .
  22. Nick Morris has dual nationality . Possibly a couple of years away from World Cup level , but he'd be worth persuading Blighty is the better option .
  23. Yup , and without Richardson and Nicholls , England will be lucky to score about 15 .
  24. Yes , but KKS's source might be his Harry Potter action figure .
