  1. I would say that the BBC is irrelevant to most sports fans
  2. Rob Godfrey is probably sat in his caravan this very morning formulating a plan to bring British Speedway back to the big time!
  3. So that's 1 million a day... and they're probably all tuning in to listen to the looney stories the BBC love to cover... while the rest of the 65m population carries on living their real lives.
  4. If Belle Vue rode on Saturday nights I'd happily make the trip up there to watch every week despite living less than a mile and half away from the Leicester track.
  5. So what... nobody watches or listens to the BBC any more
  6. At least with Dan riding it'll put an end to the debate of whether he should have been picked ahead of Tai or Rob. Should be fun
  7. If you need a flow chart to explain the rules, something is very seriously wrong with your sports with your scoring system
  8. I've just been back and read through the early posts due to the hysteria in the later posts calling for people to be banned from the forum because they thought the racing was no good. I can only find 1 post saying it's boring and another saying not as good as Monday. I think the main gripe was that practice was held so late that it didn't allow for time for the track to be prepped properly like it should have been for a World Championship event. Consequently the track had one line about an inch from the fence. So instead of riders passing inside and out with ease like we saw was doable on Monday evening we saw Desperate Dan kamikaze moves. If the dirt line hadn't been so wide Tai would not have been making that move, we all know he likes a cut back. PHB riding too wide, because it was the only line. Can't remember the Swedes crash but they were also pretty wide. I've seen quite a few meetings at BV over the years and you just don't see crashes, thankfully as it's a blummin fast track. To see 2 big ones in the same meeting and PHB's could easily have ended differently says a lot about the track. The racing was pretty good, better than you'd see at most places, the track perp on the other hand was a disgrace for a World Championship event.
  9. You can either read through about a million pages... or you could just make your own story up and you probably wouldn't be that far away from the truth of what has happened.
  10. Please can you take your celebrations back to your own thread... us Lions fans want to be alone right now
