I agree completely. I haven't watched the final yet but have never liked the rule. Hopefully this has brought it to a head. But its one thing everyone saying they'll have to change it now, but as long as people keep paying at the gate, why would they change anything? So how about if you dont like the rule, you dont go to the World Cup next year?? with empty stadiums and losing money they'd have to listen.

and I agree, it could,ve backfired. but it didn't. This was King's 2nd year (or is it more?). Did he look any better? (He had his moments at KL fair play to him) Would Bridger have done better? And unfortunately I think you may be in the minority because most people wouldn't put up with a few years of worse than this... although that may be where we're heading regardless.

I can see why people are saying give the young ones a chance, theres no point flogging dead horses after all. but I just cant see Auty, Worrall, Mear, Roynon doing what the young Danes have turned up and done. It used to be unusual for a teenager to make it on the world stage, now its becoming commonplace. Just not for us.

In my opinion, the double rule is wrong whoever uses it and wherever they use it. if we'd lost by 2, not having been able to use it, I'd be ranting. The fact we lost by 4 and used it, well, the right team won.

Cheers BK, I hadn't seen it. Agree with everything, classic racing. Thats the stuff that made us all Speedway fans in the first place.

Surely the most effective thing the fans can do is not go to GP or SWC events? But because fans have passion for their sport and/or their national team, can't see it happening, so BSI and Ole will continue to take the p**s, as long as our money comes with it!

And if he hadn't been dropped, the difference would have been what? We would still have been in the race off... which Lee was picked for.
