RPNY

Nailed it E I Addio

And yes even though I fully understand why he did what he did, Greg should receive a more severe punishment for this btw..

I'm amazed at some of the peoples defense for NP on here. I haven't attacked him personally just stated fact about what he's done to others. Justifying what he's done previously to others with 'well they've all done it too' is ridiculous & doesn't make it right. And none of them have anywhere near the amount of incidents NPs had. I mean thats just obvious lol!

Im English and live in NY... And Erik Gundersen was my hero as a kid..

The pattern is there will always be incidents in Speedway. But not repeated time after time the same person. Can you genuinely not see that? I have no personal vendetta against Nicki I'm just saying it as I see.

For those who are still defending NP, to my knowledge the riders in GP's alone he's knocked off and/or had visible arguments with are Hancock AJ Emil Hans Andersan Holder Zagar Ward THJ Gollob Woffy Im sure there are more thats just top of my head. Are they ALL in the wrong?

No you've missed the point. No rider just lets someone else win, especially in the GPs. You obviously just dont like Hancock.

Let him win 2 world titles? Lol that is classic

NP has had this coming a long time. I would imagine this was still in Greg's memory.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tB4GjqZk6DM Nicki is a great rider and from what I'm told a decent bloke off the track but the fact of the matter is he causes crashes time after time. Even if you are a fan of his you have to realize that every other rider dislikes him for a reason. I remember in the Cardiff program years ago David Norris admitting that even though NP was his team mate there were times he couldn't defend some of the stuff he did. Also, I used to sponsor an ex team mate of Nicki's and he simply described him as a lunatic who'd rather fence him then get a 5-1. For those of you who don't know me you may think that is made up bull****, but I swear it's true. As for Greg's reaction, don't know what everyone is up in arms about. He just got knocked off his bike at 70mph, by a guy who's don't it multiple times before & he saw red mist. Not the first or last person who's done that. The only real surprise was that it was Greg that finally stepped up and did what loads of others had wanted to do for years. Roll on Cardiff...

The worst thing is it's not lack of effort he's just not good enough

stand corrected looks like we're gonna get our rses handed to us!

Well I cant believe there isnt a single Russian rider that could make up a team of 4!

Seem like such decent people (Emil and the Laguta's) when interviewed but they really are a let down. Also, they could easily get a medal if those 3 are riding, don't they care about that?!!

I'm not too worried about the Pols when riding outside of Poland. If the Russians had both Laguta's and Emil I think they would walk Thursday, but as it stands I honestly give GB as good a chance as any. I certainly don't think the Danish track staff will do the Pols any favors.

Read numerous times that Morris said he contemplated riding for GB but said his mind was made up as he's always lived in Aus and as he had to listen to the Aus national anthem every day at school it would be weird standing on the podium with the British national anthem playing... All Pearson was saying that he COULD have ridden for GB because his parents were British.

AH good point Sir.

Wouldnt have a clue but I would also find that very unlikely..

Very strange that Wells doesnt want to ride. Looking at his results he is easily having his best ever season.

So true! How was Lambert not given a wild card?? Honestly, these people could literally not organize a P up in a brewery.

I thought Wells was in good form?

Id go back to Warsaw. Track was fine, better then Saturdays for sure. The last 4 heats before it was canceled were pretty dam good too. Just needed the started gate to work!

Can't help but feel NP was a big factor in Warsaw being called off. Him and the Aussies..

What did he say?

And for that Im furious with the riders. It was the same for everyone, no reason for it to be stopped. Massive Massive let down. They should realize who pay their wages & what industry they are in.

We said at the time and I stand by it now, if the tapes were working that meeting would have continued
