Dekker

Why? On his previous GP showings he always dissappoints on the day, forget about old men like him and get some new blood in.

Well done to cumpy best rider and sportsman!!

To be honest watching on TV the Zagar exclusion was plain wrong, however the Linback one was a tough one for the ref to call as the Pole had the drop on Linback and was a wheel ahead when he started turning into the corner, however then Linback still tried to force his way up the inside and there was elbow contact between the 2 and Linback lost control and took them both down. Tbh having seen the replay a few times i think that Linback was correctly exluded as like in the SWC he was trying to force things to happen where a wiser head would have backed off. Maybe Linbacks reputation will give him problems now with refs and riders?? However seeing how poor the racing was at Wroclaw maybe Linback thought if he didnt get into the lead on the first turn he wouldnt be able to pass the Pole so thats why he tried to hoof the Pole out of the way.

Most of the riders have agreed when interviewed on the TV but they say thats the rules.

Oh dear Bjerre's night has blown up

He didnt gate after changing set up and basically gated last and that was that

Bjerre EF when clear

Typical Wroclaw so 1 lined track....

IMO Zagar was at least level had the speed and was going past when the pole tried to lean on him, tough call for ref

Very sad news indeed RIP

That he did, but then he usually went back past the others within 2 laps, one of the all time greats for the Robins of that era. Silver gave 110% in every race and the fans loved that.

Well there you go, its a pity Crump didnt kick Pedersen in the nuts and settle his hash once and for all like twas done in the old days.....

No Shawn your intent re his sponsors was clear to see.

That bollocks and u know that Shawn, you were being a right prat over the SWC and now your back tracking.

Look at how few Brits are in the Poole team.

Bet Sky would have loved to have it as team england dont you?

What did he do?

Not at all, but it showed what they really wanted to do, didnt it

Not according to sky who kept slipping in team england all the time

Well said Granchan, cant see what the fuss is really over the last heat. Nicholls didnt gate and when added to his stopping that cost englerlund dear. Maybe he better look for the real reason team GB lost closer to home. Some of the purile threads started here subsquently to the final show how this forum has degenerated in the last few years.

No hard feelings my way either, but dont get mad all the time it wont help with the therapy. Deny it all you want but on track Pedersen is an animal..... sooner he quits the better.

Truth hurts does it?

Pedersen as usual went to block Crump which is fair enough, but as usual his lack of ability on a bike and his view that punting someone into the fence is the way to block someone got him a deserved exclusion. Just the usual uncontrolled lurch/barge into the path of the other rider and is it any wonder refs exclude him???? As for Crump playing to the gallery so what, doesnt Pedersen all the time with his whining kid impression,

Always gone on, look at Hansi Nielsen.

Well done jason, show em how to win.
