  1. Yes Mike I agree I was being...err I was at the Worky finals freezing my butt off with minimal crowd.
  2. This is a very radical idea, I cannot see it being put in to practice.
  3. Yes as you say normal ....Speedway keeping fans hanging around in the rain for around 40 minutes but that’s about normal.
  4. Cardiff Sgp2 endurance Peterborough Tyre gate Plymouth fire starter British final washout Rain off er what rain Plymouth team of world stars. I,m sure I have missed one or two.
  5. It seems to be the way councilor's work, their own best interests against the long-term community gain. A council near to me is trying to take land from a farmer to extend and redevelop an Industrial estate and business hub, needless to say there is some strong opposition to this plan.
  6. Another four coming down from the North on the 18th.
  7. Just out of interest looked at Cardiff hotel prices for 2023, Hilton hotel was one of the cheapest at £560.00 for two nights, no breakfast, some were wanting £1500 for an apartment.
  8. Wrestling........would rather watch four hours of SGP2.....well maybe not.
  9. If it’s a bad batch how many other duff tyres are out there ?
  10. Some good racing but very dusty , the worst at Belle vue I have experienced.
  11. Coming down again this morning for this meet, should be the usual Belle vue fantastic track racing.
  12. Good performances from all the British lads, well done to Dan and Robert for getting on the podium. Tom Brennan probably the next in line to make it.
  13. If crowd level dropped below 10000 it might go to Manchester , Cardiff has the central location to bars, rester-aunts, hotels etc.
  14. So was the official attendance 22000 , way down on previous years and will likely be a lot less next year with the rise in....well more or less everything!
  15. Tero still in hospital last I heard.
  16. Paid £65.00 for middle tier ticket. (That is with reduction, should have been about £80?)
  17. On board camera is a definite bad move.
  18. OK, here are my views on the meeting. Arrived just after six and the place was packed with fans, the entry to the stadium was done with the usual Glasgow efficiency, tickets checked, programme bought, 50/50 bought, and drink purchased on entry all within a few minutes. The parade was started at around 7pm , in hindsight maybe the parade should have started at 6:50pm. The racing was fantastic and for what it's worth I thought the track was fine. The crashes which took place were on the face of it did not look serious but did cause some nasty injuries to the riders and although it was a long drawn-out meeting for the fans the rider's safety must be paramount and the utmost care must be taken to tend to the riders injuries. When the sun went down it did get cold and did not help when standing around for over four hours. We had to leave before the end to get transport back into the city and so missed the last three or four heats... A great gesture by the winner of the 50/50 draw (£525) to donate it to the children's cancer hospital which was matched by the promoters.
