  1. You don't need to moan, the rest of us more than make up for it.
  2. And look what you did with six of the seven, I agree with you that Newcastle haven't exactly started the season how you, and every other Diamonds fan would've wanted, but the Newcastle promotion have a history of getting the best of the best of their riders, I`m sure words will have been said and George English will be looking for a better performance come Tuesday. If riders need to be moved on then I`m sure the promotion wont be found wanting, though at the minute its difficult to see where there's any better riders out there waiting to come in, Newcastle being a Sunday track it makes it all the more harder to attract riders who already have contracts in Poland.
  3. Pumping dually delivered, maybe certain Peterborough fans need to get rid of their EL snobbery, in this PL there are no walkovers, as they found out today and last night at Workington. Delighted for Glasgow, maybe this might give some of their riders a bit of confidence to go for more good results.
  4. Why replace Schramm when IMO any problems in the Newcastle team don't lie at reserve.
  5. Probably the first time that's been posted on here for many a season.
  6. Doolan Wethers Kus Bellego Vissing Jensen Carr
  7. Cut off has passed, meaning there will be no changes in the Berwick line up, Doolan will stay at No1 with Jensen & Carr stating at reserve. That makes a change in the riding order for the others imperative.
  8. It has been confirmed that Linus Sundstrom will represent Sweden, Tobias Kroner will represent Germany, while Theo Pyper will represent France though of course he is as Dutch as a Dutch thing.
  9. Quiet day at the ranch. To be fair the referees are hamstrung by a wishy washy rule governing false starts or faulty starts, just needs a bit of clearing up.
  10. No need, just a clear rule and a referee with a decent set of gonads to put that rule into force, for example in last weeks meeting with Workington, Ht15 was stopped for Vissing moving at the start, which he was. The re-run was allowed to go, but IMO Vissing did exactly the same thing in the re-run as he did in the first staging. Maybe we should go back to concrete starts where the is little advantage in one gate over the other three.
  11. I will get a letter for my mother excusing me from this week and next.
  12. The sport wont go back so it might be a case of evolution rather than revolution, though your probably right about the tracks, most of the tracks are still of similar shape and size that they were in the sixties and seventies when they were built, but the bikes they use now are hardly recognisable to the one they used back in the day.
  13. Nothing better than actually being at the meeting, sadly due to work I`m missing in action this week and next, hope everyone can cope. Looks like the weather wont affect this meeting, we had a fair bit of rain over night but things are drying up nicely. Up till now we haven't used the installation of our fence as an excuse for a shoddy performance, so thanks for that, we can open a new page in the Hong Kong book of excuses.
  14. To the best of my knowledge no track has changed to any significant degree since we have had air fences, that includes Berwick.
  15. Friday`s been nothing to write home about weatherwise, coastal mist, drizzle and not very nice. There is rain forecast for most of tonight and into the early hours of the morning, Saturday will be a mostly dry during morning and afternoon but there will be rain pushing in from the south west, with a bit of luck that wont arrive in Berwick until after this meeting is completed. I`m sure those fans who can help the riders individually will do so, and I`m sure they are grateful for it, the rest of us help the riders in a very real way by attending as many meetings as possible.
  16. Fair enough, therefore it might be a case if the promotion don't believe there will be any significant improvement after the new CMA`s come out that a rider or riders could be moved out to bring improvement to the team, that of course is opening a whole new can of beans. Doolans average will fall, while Bellegos and Vissing will rise, the others will stay roughly the same, might be a chance that wont come up again.
  17. I`m hoping that once the new averages change, and we get riders riding in different positions, their scores will start to improve, must admit I`d like to see Bellego taken from the No2 position straight away, change in averages or not.
  18. Nicki Pedersen Matej Zagar Troy Batchelor Freddie Lindgren Aussies to out score Poles
  19. One or two on here are quick to point the finger at Kus, for apparently not doing his job. But look at his scores will tell you he is at least riding to his average, some others in the team are not, our faltering No1 for example.
  20. Possibly one of the most despicable attention seeking posts there`s been on here for a while.
