Swc Round 2 Coventry 14th July
screm replied to skid row's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Agree,think it shows what a mess we are in when we are relying on a 17yr old to pull us out of the hole we find ourselves in after last night.Woffinden is a huge talent but its up to our experienced internatiomal riders to pull their fingers out.Nicholls,Harris and Richardson.Also I dont think Olly Allen did anything wrong last night but wheres the incentive when you know youre out next meeting. -
What Do You Expect On Thursday
screm replied to Star Lady's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Sweden will start as favourites on thursday so giving them 1 of the top 2 positionsthat leaves GB or Poland for 2nd spot.Dont see Russia getting through but could be spoilers,who ever gets least last places between GB and Poland will go through with Sweden. GB cant be that bad again can they ?. -
Swc Round 2 Coventry 14th July

Woffinden did well in the GB Final at Swindon but when you see the performance of the GB team last night you wonder just how good you had to be.The lad does have huge talent but lets not put this much pressure on young shoulders.Its up to Nicholls and Harris to stand up on thursday and be counted,they are ment to be our top two and in the GPs.Also Richardson who seems to talk a good race and can tell us why we arent doing very well. -

Dont think it matters whos in charge,we dont have good enough riders end of story.It goes to show that Middleditch didnt do that bad a job after all. Dont know why it takes a performance like last night to make everyone realise how crap British speedway is.We have been overtaken by Denmark,Sweden and Poland with Russia and Czech not far behind. If anyone thinks that Tai Woffinden can come in on Thursday and make everything alright then it goes to show how desperate GB speedway is getting.No dig at Woffinden,he is a fantastic rider and will get to the very top one day. -
Ok so you sack Lynch,who is there to bring in.Rossiter,Pratt,Havelock or Middleditch,are they going to make the riders go any better. Face it,we dont have the riders,it doesnt make any difference who the manager is.

That he is,goes to show there is talent outside the EL.Love to have seen Woffinden in tonight after watching him on saturday. -

Think its time for us all to take a reality check. WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. If you fill our league full of foreign riders then what do you expect. By the way Come on Adrian Rymel. -

Me to maybe not in danger of winning the meeting but could be real spoilers. Best of luck to Adrian Rymel a Bandit of today and Matej Kus a Bandit next season. -
Referee Needs To Go To Specsavers
screm replied to sirmattyisbac's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
That ref is an idiot and shouldnt be let any where near a speedway track again.The FIM,Ole Olsen or who ever appointed him need to take a long look at themselves especially as he is down to do the next two GPs.It makes the sport a laughing stock.He must have been the only one in the stadium who thought to exclude Adams + Pederson was the right decision. -
Couldnt agree more,we have to face the fact that the Elite League is anything but elite and the gap between GP,Poland,Sweden compared to British speedway is massive.Yes Harris & Nicholls do well in our league when it comes to the big meetings whether it be GP or SWC they just arent up to it and anyone who thinks they are are kidding themselves.
-
Agree that both the brits look out of their depth at GP level.Harris doesnt look quick enough either out of the gates or during the race,Chris Louis mentioned on tv last night that he has been having long term bike problems with a misfire and if thats the case then that needs looking at but in truth that could be clutching at straws.Nicholls is the best we have but can he rely on a wild card pick for 09,a number of non-british rides look to have a better claim to a pick.

Live Polish Speedway On The Internet
screm replied to Blazeaway's topic in International World of Speedway
Got to agree,after watching that meeting it makes you wonder just where our EL is going.No wonder so many riders dont want to race over here. -
Wouldnt disagree with any of the comments about Gollob,what was even more dis-tasteful was when Dryml and Tomicek crashed Gollob parked the bike in middle of the track waving at the referee when anyone could see that the crash wasnt the fault of the rides.
-
Having just watched last nights GP,who ever was respnsible for that track whether it be Olsen or A N Other something needs to be done.How many times do we hear riders saying that the track is nothing like what it was like in practise which surely is the point of having a practise session.Seems like its grippy on a friday and slick on a saturday.Hopefully all of the hurt riders from last night wont be out for long but last night was shocking to watch.

The way both Harris and Nicholls have started the GP series we are in danger of having no Brits in next year.Nicholls got in by right this year but Harris had to rely on a GP pick.Dont see both being that lucky if there is not a big improvement. -
Talking of Berwick no one has mentioned Rog Grant snr,remember back in the Berrington Lough days any Berwick rider who had another rider off would always come and sit next to Granty in the pits.I can remember him having a punch up with a Newport rider,Scott Smith I think after he had his son off,also a rider from the past who wasnt shy of a fight was Carl Askew.
-
Wonder how long sky will let this idiot go on for.His comment on Pedersen was the last straw.My favourite was "Gollob is Gollob in this race".
-
Sarcasms not my strong point.Isnt Nicholls our GP rider and doesnt he deserve our support.
-
Yes Nicholls had a poor day but if you look so did Zagar & Anderson and they are GP riders to

Millard is a disaster but we will have to get used to him for GPs as now the football season has started Nigel Pearson will be with Talk Sport.So its more wrong riders in races,ding dong battles and battle is joined comments.Also stupid stats,by the way where was Jason Crump born ?Plonker
