  1. Thank you. He's been great to watch in Wolves colours.
  2. Oh yes... you are reveered in our group at Monmore. Beowulf has you in his Wolves 'Hall Of Fame'. We still owe you a beer!
  3. Naw, I'm told by the younger ones on the terraces that it was the laydown that ruined Speedway .... But to go back on topic. I missed the opportunity to see the Wolves win 49-29 at Custom House... and never got the chance to go again. One of my regrets ... you always think you can go again next year
  4. Is that the man who ruined British Speedway by importing Jawa's?.... although it was claimed it stopped the Japs' .
  5. I have a plastic penguin from the centre green at Costa Mesa, that was made up to look like a referee as it's painted with black and white vertical stripes!!! The US customs checked it out and were suprised that there was no packages stuffed inside. However my mates prize winning super large 'Las Vegas' Teddy Bear had the razor blade treatment.
  6. I suspect that Peterborough could be stopped from using him as the integrity of the sport must be upheld!
  7. So... its free to get in? but you can't get in! Speedway Marketing reaches another low. Will you get a re-admission ticket if its called off after two heats? Enjoy
  8. .... which extends the night by typically 10 - 15 mins to see under one min of racing.... not very 'super' .... is it?
  9. There's also a belief that the 'bug' can congregate around stadium floodlights in certain areas of Norfolk and cause major impact to work performance there as well.
  10. No home fixture next Thursday.! Could have been scheduled for then?
  11. And a free set of crayons with every copy!
  12. Is Chris Harris on stand by? He's at Belle Vue on the lunchtime!
  13. Dear BSPL, PLEASE let Matej Zagar ride for the Aces. As a Wolves fan my view is: if you don't I'm perilously close to not bother going to watch the Aces at Wolverhampton in a so called Premier League with bugger all teams in it and little to no credibility. Historically you as a management team have devalued the KOC to extinction, damn near finished Speedway as a team sport in the UK with no team variety, doubling up and excessive use of R/R. Stop shuffling the deck chairs on this sinking ship. In the 70's I went to over five meetings a week, now its getting closer to 5 a month! Have rules that will actually get spectators in!
  14. Yet another new rule book change that does absolutely nothing to please existing spectators or likely to get any new customers through the turnstiles.

    Best news I've read today. 'It's A Wonderful Life'.... Bedford Falls comes to Britain via a journey along the Mississippi.
  16. So ten quid for two races and probably got to buy a new proggy for the rerun of the meeting? It starts to make politicians look honest!
  17. IMDB suggests the Speedway scenes were filmed at Walthamstow Stadium.
  18. Bet the noise made you cry? ..... or could you watch it behind glass then?
  19. I'm thinking Bob Dylan credited Abraham Lincoln with that! Also consider..... If at first you don't succeed... give up. (Homer Simpson) or If at first you don't succeed... repeat posting it (Johnny Gustix) Also to repeat... for me its: Belle Vue v Oxford 1963... Oh What A Night
  20. I was driving on the A41 Black Country route near West Brom just after 2pm and the deluge was such that the force on the windscreen made it feel as though it was pushing the car backwards.
  21. 'DIDDY' David Hamilton wished Oxford Speedway all the best on his BOOM Radio slot this afternoon. Thumbs up to him and to everyone at Cowley this evening.
  22. Too true... Loved seeing riders learning to ride the Shay... and having pre & post beer in the 'Three Pigeons' is one of the greatest ticks on a shale lovers 'Bucket List'.
  23. As you travel from West Brom and move closer to Wolverhampton, the nickname undergoes further name change / modification. Some might be considered printable!
