Jacques, I'm starting to slightly detect that there's a possibility that maybe you're not a big Lee Richardson fan? All the best Rob

Nope, you do what you have to win. If we could have got the Russians out of the race-off, it would have made things just a bit easier on Thursday. All the best Rob

I couldn't believe what I was seeing there. With all those people down in the Team GB pit, surely someone should have spotted that Woffinden needed to finish behind Topinka in that final race. Such tactical naiveity. All the best Rob

If the Brits have got any sense, they'll now team-ride the Czechs into the race-off, because the Russians won't have this line-up if they're riding on Thursday. All the best Rob

Er... what did Lukas Dryml do wrong there?????????????? All the best Rob

A rather misleading list. Most of the above riders only missed riding in the SWC due to either injury or being retired from international speedway. How many of the above opted out of the World Cup when only 21 years old? Sayfutdinov should be given no option but to ride tonight, or face a ban from the next Grand Prix. He's let down the fans. All the best Rob

Of course, while everyone is focusing on Boycey from last night, the Swedish team manager also made a strange choice in Heat 24, but not putting the in-form Lindback into Heat 24 as the joker, instead of keeping the off-colour programmed Lindgren as the joker.. Lindback could have easily have won the race, and the Swedes would have then finished on 50 points, level with the Danes. All the best Rob

AS, I agree with that you're saying. But remember Cieslak messed things up in 2009, yet was hailed as sort some of tactical genius after he got another lucky chance to use Hampel in Heat 23. All the best Rob

Boycey did leave his joker a bit late - his move in Heat 11 should have been Holder as a joker. That said had Holder won Heat 23 (which he intially led) and the Aussies won, then everyone would be hailing him as a tactical genius (as when Cieslak almost left it too late in the 2009 final, but then got lucky at the end!). How fickle we are! All the best Rob

Richard Hollingsworth = top bloke. He breathes, eats and sleeps Scunthorpe Speedway. All the best Rob

I can get Radio Luxembourg and Radio Caroline on mine. All the best Rob

Greg Hancock is a marvellous chap. It's one reason that many people are rooting for him last year. All the best Rob

Cardiff is great, but the O2 would be absolutely brilliant. With all the outside outlets, it would just be perfect. All sorts of sports have been staged within the main O2 arena: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_O2_Arena_(London) The track would be on the small size and due to the lower capacity (20,000), I imagine ticket prices would have to go up from Cardiff. But it's a state-of-the-art venue, and much newer than the Millennium Stadium. Plus it's in London. Now before everyone gets on my back, personally I'll go to the British GP whether it's in London, Cardiff, Glasgow or the Outer Hebridies. BUT to get the real publicity from the national papers, the event HAS to be in London. All the best Rob

Good grief, can't believe the amount of moaning on this thread. I'm going to buck the trend and say I enjoyed myself on Saturday. All the best Rob

Well, if they sang a version of it in a proper language (e.g. English), we'd be able to join in. All the best Rob

I don't bother with all that presentation mumbo-jumbo. My bottom doesn't like being perched in the same place for more than 3 hours, so I tend to stay outside the Prince Of Wales until the last possible moment, then head in at around 4.45pm. I don't want to watch some X-Factor reject. My time in Cardiff is precious. After a trip to the Collectors Fair, I then like to spend at least three hours at the Prince Of Wales for a meet-up with all and sundry. All the best Rob

SCB, yes it is the experience and the day out which is special about Cardiff - it's a speedway meeting when the racing is secondary. Mind you, I will need councilling after seeing Snyper in a kilt. All the best Rob

I never have massive expectations of Cardiff being a great meeting, so I'm not let down when it isn't. Yesterday was a ho-hum meeting, it wasn't great, but it wasn't awful either. Cardiff 2010 was something a bit special, I'm fully aware we are unlikely to get that every year. At least the track this year didn't rut up in the way it did in the early days, some of the early Cardiff meetings were very poor. As usual, the best racing of the GP weekend came at Somerset 24 hours earlier - with the Joe Screen masterclass. All the best Rob

I hope Bridger never grows up, he's hilarious What a twonk. All the best Rob

I'll be at the POW mate, it still seems to be the meeting point for everyone. All the best Rob

Trust you to be noisy. Getting my tickets on Saturday - will be getting an air-horn free zone if possible. I don't mind them - but not when you've got some numpty in the seat behind who doesn't realise you're supposed to direct them skywards and blasts it straight in my earhole instead. All the best Rob

Shawn Moran brought it down to a rained off at Oxford at the end of 1986 and it was lost. The competition was held early on in 1987, even though there was no helmet any more, but then curtailed part way through the season. All the best Rob

Some people will moan about anything Meanwhile, it looks like quite an expensive trip to the collectors fair for me on Sunday... there's two books and one DVD I want. All the best Rob

Humph, I don't really recall it extending beyond that one night. Paul Thorp seemed to have more of a hoodoo over Hans - he beat Hans several times in several different meeting during 1987. All the best Rob

True, but you won't get bumped into by any psycho grannies with shopping trollies at the collectors fair. All the best Rob
