No... But it's nice to dream and it gives some posters an opportunity to write massive long "blueprints for the future" posts to waste everybody's time

As long as he told the promotion when he signed all is good

There's a thread in general discussions about this... With some great memories... And as yet, no arguments!

It kind of sums Speedway up in a nutshell really... Even with a blank canvas they managed to balls it up

It's happened before, why wouldn't it happen again... I seem to remember a competition final taking place at Coventry on November the 1st in the past, think it was a Sunday afternoon... And didn't Oxford and CH share the cup for 6 months each back in the 80's because they couldn't get their fixtures done? Or am I imagining that/both

Probably, I have zero interest in doing anything about it though... A reasonably priced ticket and maybe a free pint and a burger or something could get me thinking about going along

Well that's even worse then, I don't know who's mugged off the fans more... Though some fans don't seem to mind being mugged off by the riders or the promotion

Just wait until after Brexit

I think Loram gets an undeservedly hard time as everybody throws the not winning a GP in his title winning year stat into any argument you out forward for him... Don't forget he did win his world title bang in the middle of the TRick era

You'd like to hope so wouldn't you

No, not only did he not dominate the qualifiers he had a far easier passage to the final than riders of other era's. Still a great great rider, don't get me wrong, you don't win a world championship without being a great rider... Just nowhere near as good as Tai, like I said in an earlier post I compare PC more to the likes of Mark Loram

I think what you meant to say was... Yes he did elect to have an operation knowing he would miss important matches and yes I'd love to know when he booked his holidays

Rules are made to be Bro... er, changed at the last minute

Didn't he elect to have his operation, weeks ago now, knowing he'd let both of his clubs (and fans) down... Would also be interesting to know when your number 1 booked his hollibobs

Any coincidence that the professionalism in the sport moved ahead massively in these years with the emergence of Nielsen and Gundersen?

Wouldn't of said he dominated though... No commonwealth final, no overseas final

I suppose my point is, if one of the 2 matches is a crowd puller you've mitigated your losses on the other... To run 2 against the same team is asking for disaster

And surely BWD must be fit again by now

Looking at PC's journey to the 76 world title it doesn't look that dominant (on paper)

Can Peterborough use R/R for Nicholls as he's jetted off to the Caribbean on holiday?

Did you see SoN? Not dominant enough for you? He did drop that point...

I don't believe it! I'm not sure why you find his "I know stuff but I'm not telling" posts interesting, but if you find them interesting you"like" away and feed his ego. I'll wait until somebody in the know says something that is actually interesting, I'd even find speculation interesting ie. JD returning to the Lions... But flagrag is saying nothing

Thanks to Jack Holder

I just wanted to quote this post to extend the thread by a few pages

Not to mention the 13 riders in their "team" that they used to win the title and that's not including guests!
