Why not add the other half of the league in as well? Top 6 is too easy to qualify for, should be top 4 only. Agreed.

... and to top it all, they didn't even have to outright win their playoff group, thanks to the Edinburgh v Worky rain off. "League" champions - yeah right!

Sent a team of NL riders as they had no chance of winning iirc.

... you end up with a season of meaningless matches.

Hmm... as there seems to be a push to cut costs in Speedway, how about reducing the expenses by removing the 24 leagu... qualifying meetings, and instead just hand the title over in a knockout tournament over the summer months. Less likelihood of a rain off, some teams will only need to stage 1 meeting a season - so very low costs, and as other teams are knocked out, more riders will become available - so no problem in finding guest's if they're required. Seems like a good idea if you ask me, and it's roughly on par with the current setup anyway - so no changes for the Dinosaurs to worry about.

R/R for the season then

"It's still real to me dammit"

Satisfactory.

Newcastle H (3x 3pt) + (1x 1pt) = 10/12 A (1x 4pt) + (2x 3pt) + (1x 1pt) + (1x 0pt) = 11/20 -> 21/32 -> 65.6% ?

I haven't attended a match all season. I never used to see the point in 'challenge' matches, and with the league becoming nothing more than a a 26-match qualifying stage, I don't see any point in wasting £15 to attend matches, with nothing really to 'win' from it. Plus the local Odeon is only £3.90 on a Tuesday - guess which one entertains me more? Tenner's a fair price, but there's other problems which need to be sorted out as well.

Yeah... And after that post, it has to be trolling!

Seem's to have a massive case of OCD about racecards and got his knickers in a twist when someone (allegedly) plagiarised his (allegedly) truely (allegedly) innovative and (allegedly) unique design recently. Can't tell whether he is trolling, or is actually serious. But, it takes all sorts to make a world, I guess... Anyhow, more importantly, cheer's to willstaxi on the main thread, I was also looking for one like that!

Satisfactory.

Oh dear!

Pedersen didn't win three world titles by waving the opposition past him. Interesting comments about Redcar's track and fans. Will note them for when the term "rough park" appears next Good to take a point with a 5 man team.

he scored nothing -> cheap?

Hahahaha!! What do you mean crap at the moment? When was it good?! ;-)

If you wanna play Troll-a-mania by bringing up the same old that you've posted numerous times before (I hate rough park.. I wouldn't go even if I wasn't at work.. Abusive fans..), then don't twist when I say that I couldn't care less if you were there or not. Even if the promotion banned said "idiots", you'd never come back anyway, and would probably find another excuse not to attend "rubbish turnstiles", "rubbish car park..", well any excuse apart from the real reason - your team had no chance of winning. Enjoy your Boycott of Brough, and best wishes for the season.

Don't waste your time Arson. You could tell him that the said "idiots" were banned from our stadium, and he'd still come up with another excuse not to grace us with his presence. Good result. Looking forward to taking on a proper side.

We'll wait and see if the "egg cup" turns up this year. Last time we thumped your lot in the first leg, the "egg cup" was mysteriously left at the STMP and the match renamed to "North East Challenge" Good

Can someone translate this?

I'll buck the trend and say that he need's a little more NL experience first, but might be tempted to sign him for 2014.

It will be good at home, but not sure away. We'll see!

Did you have Spam by any chance?

Why?
