No problem Marcin

Dryml and Puk should be scrabbling around 14th and 15th. 3 very dull qualifiers, nobody new breaking into the Gp's. Lindgren should be a shoe-in for a nommo with maybe Kasprzak and 2 of the non top 8 finishers

I believe Jack Kitchen passed away in 1990 aged 52.

I think he wasn't too high in the Christmas Card list of too many of his ex Belle Vue team mates. I recall Joe Screen was a particular fan of Mr Sulky Bjerre

There's not a Pole anywhere near good enough at present. Far too often they pass 21 and their careers stagnate or fall apart.

Hull rider is not Bernie Hornby, it's Dennis Wasden.

I'm sure P'boro fans will have every sympathy for young Zabik. And the hoards of Bees fans waiting to congratulate Hlib can only be seconds away surely?

My God, allow Team Managers to manage and use tactics. Tsk, tsk...whatever next! Although i think it should be 5 riders, not 6.

Yet another sub standard Middlo performance is hailed with hero status from his Pirates groupies. The man couldn't motivate me to change my underwear! he bumbles his way through interviews, talks too quickly for anyone to understand him. He really isn't a front man at all. That aside, why didn't Team GB have a team sponsor, why hasn't Middlo been banging the drum all year to obtain backing to ensure the boys all had the best available kit?? You can't tell me that the likes of Iversen, Bjerre, Kasprzak and Hampel are any better than Rico, Nicholls and Harris, but last night they looked in a completely different league. Something was severely lacking! Rosco is the only obvious man for the job to raise our profile, ensure sponsors are queueing up and lead the boys from the front!!

Can't wait

There's a result!

Don't ruin the blokes day!

I don't rightly know Sir, so he is, I TINK!

Not eejut then??

Any idea why the Yanks turned up with a CL rider and an old fogey who was crap when he was good?? Even 'Porky' Fisher and Ronnie 'the crock-et' Correy would have been better than Hedden and Venegas

What does the 'E' stand for??

A bit of perspective is badly needed here i think. Yep, they won comfortably and rode well, but the Swedes were severely weakened. Keep it for Saturday

Bill Andrew didn't ride for Exeter Poole, Newport and Halifax

I was of the impression that the Res could replace one rider only, be it owing to either injury or poor form.

Did you have your balaclava on again then Matty??

Another shocking performance from Stead on the World Stage, to finish behind the likes of Judas D and Nieminen is embarrassing. Vastly overrated, just isn't going to cut it at the top level. EL 2nd Heat Leader at best. As Orion says, "The worst Number 1 since Mistletoe And Wine!"
