  1. BSPA GSA are not out yet but my source is a reliable one
  2. Not often I agree with Addio but I do on this one, the rubbish track is down to Olsen and he should carry the can, not for the first time either.
  3. Latest figures say Schlein is 6.19, it's also worth noting the amendment to the rules issued Early April.
  4. Well I said it might be interesting on another forum after the news that they had problems with part of the track but that was the wrong word as shambles is probably more accurate. Personally I have seen many many meetings on tracks worse than that, I also find it hard to believe that they only had one set of starting equipment. I also thought Batchelor was fortunate not to get excluded for having Pedersen off and heat 2 should have been rerun as it must have been clear from the TV replays that the tapes were not going up evenly. No problem with Doyles exclusion, he clearly move before the light went off. But I feel really sorry for supporters, I know a lot of friends that went and after the ticket rip off I fear this will end up costing the organisers support in future GP,s especially at Warsaw, they surely must offer some compensation. Lastly I was extremely dissapointed with the total lack of information coming through from Eurosport and the commentators as to what was happening and the report on the SGP web site is frankly pathetic. I to will be very interested to see what the star says about this debacle but as others have said surely someone must be held accountable. A real poor day for the sport.
  5. It's based on what each team averages per match so big home wins and good scores away, at the moment Rye have the best in our group courtesy of the 60 plus thrashing over Plymouth.
  6. So what's your excuse I would have thought yellow was more your colour
  7. I should think he had a few friendly chats on Sunday he was after all wearing his wife's pink shorts
  8. What that Belle Vue will finish above Leicester.
  9. Might have had something to do with who was referee, her specialist subjects are fire extinguishers, safety fences and environmental mats.
  10. Of course Roynon was in the team's initial declaration he rode in the first match (briefly) he was replaced by Palm Toft, why that isn't shown by the BSPA I have no idea. Yes his inclusion does go against speedways regulations but his inclusion is allowed by a previous ruling by the BSPA ( not in the rules) but still current which is how he is currently included, he will be obtaining a new average after 4H and 4A as will Robert Lambert.
  11. One has to wonder as these things happen every year do some promoters do it on purpose in order to make sure they gain an advantage
  12. About the same standard as served up in the fish bar, bloody dreadful.
  13. Check the Peterborough declaration on the BSPA web site, MPT is formally in the team and has been for a while.
  14. Must win match for the Panthers if they are to progress and with both teams using guests the result is by no means certain either way, it will be interesting to see if Palm Toft scores well considering he rode for Plymouth in 2013. Plymouth 1. Ryan Fisher 2. Jack Holder 3. Sam Simota 4. Ty Proctor (G) 5. Morten Risager 6. Sam Chapman 7. Ashley Morris Peterborough 1. Lasse Bjerre (G) 2. Michael Palm Toft 3. Robert Lambert 4. Lewis Blackbird 5. Ulrich Ostergaard 6. Oliver Greenwood 7. Simon Lambert
  15. Really, I was under the impression IPSWICH thought they could just turn up last night and would walk it, that was of course until Louis and TUNGATE looked over the fence and saw the track. Don't write teams off too early, some take a few matches to get going and I was quite impressed with Somerset the other week.
  16. The bit about not much dirt these days is as far as I am concerned the telling one, let's be fair tracks these days are generally slick but most riders when faced with a grippy deep track just cannot handle it. Peterborough slick doesnt present problems to anyone as two home defeats this year testify but is a completely different ball game when it's really grippy.
