  1. Yes, I remember you well... Good as gold thanks. Hope you're keeping well BB
  2. Brilliant feed, but hard to follow without graphics and you don't speak Danish... Sounds like they're speaking backwards *edit* Just seen Manchesterpauls link
  3. Still running I see. Some Edinburgh and Workington fans are still defending Cook, which is par for the course. I've no connection with either rider, so have no bias whatsoever. The fact is Cook damaged property belonging to the Stadium owners. That's criminal damage. He's very lucky that he hasn't had another court appearance to add to the unfortunate incident that's been well documented elsewhere. What went on between Cook and Barker has been going on at tracks for years. I once saw Chris Neath put one on Tom P Madsen in a Rye House v Berwick meeting and some scuffles between riders at other times. Criminal damage is another matter though.
  4. I can't remember the last time an enforced mid season signing worked so well for us. Stefan Ekberg perhaps? The general consensus amongst the Rye fans I know is that we'd very much like to see Pontus as a full time Rocket next year.
  5. Len Silver has the same problem. Went bleating to the local rag naming myself and one or two others for some things he'd read on Twitter. Some of what he said was a load of rubbish and inaccurate (I'll stop at saying lies). The rag wouldn't even give me the right to reply. Not the way to treat someone who's spent thousands of their hard earned and travelled thousands of miles following the team home and away for over 25 years
  6. If It hadn't have been such a soaking wet day and we weren't defending a huge lead from the first leg we'd have beaten you then too
  7. Top job Rockets with a weakened side Should've gone to Specsavers
  8. I'd forgotten that he used to be a Tiger before I read this post
  9. Poor start did for us on this occasion. Out scored Workington in the second half of the meeting, but it was too late by then
  10. Of course. Already looking forward to my carvery lunch and a wee swalee (B4E is driving home)
  11. Very pleased for the Bandits and their supporters. B4E tells me the SBF buckets were brimming with cash. Nice one!
  12. Due to circumstances beyond my control (speedway fixtures released after I'd put my annual leave request in) I am unable to attend. In the past I'd have developed some sort of last minute illness that would have kept me off work for a day or two, but they've cottoned on to that and I've received an official warning. I've decided that having a job is more important than speedway on this occasion. Encouraged by the second half of the meeting at Workington, we could keep this interesting if we get off to a decent start.
  13. I'd have been hopeful of a point with our full line up, but r/r for Nelson and an NL guest for Garrity? Do us a favour!! Just hope we put in a good performance and don't crumble.
  14. Pleased that Simon has got himself fixed up with another club. Never really looked the part around Hoddesdon. Don't think the injury he suffered helped either.
  15. I think that was the general consensus amongst the Bandits fans. To be honest, my attention was on the fallen rider, so I missed the Ashworth/Lanham incident. Looked to me like Ellis fell on his own accord, so should've been excluded anyway. Caught a lucky break there.
  16. Ashworth used to be hopeless at Rye, but he's improved his scores greatly over the last couple of years. Rye is a pretty small slick track, so your point is spot on. The Ipswich track looks very flat. Some banking would help the quality of the racing.
  17. Granted, but I was looking for him to score better than that after his recent haul in the test match
  18. Can't remember the last time I saw him ride so poorly, apart from the 2007 PL play off final at Rye
  19. Can't remember the last time I saw such a poor meeting. Oh yeah, I remember, last time I was here
  20. I'd have been surprised if Redcar had agreed to that date with both Ostergaard and Summers missing as Brummie Kev pointed out
  21. Good call to postpone early. I can make the restaging now
