  1. Promoters are scared of the riders these days,they know they will not ride if there is a cloud in the Sky.Espiecially aTeam with Schlien in it.
  2. Yip,what they don't seem to factor in is that virtually every season the same top teams of that season get to the latter stages of Cup competitions.They have to make sure the early rounds are priority over everything else.Golden Heat is a must if Teams draw on aggregate.
  3. We can't even complete all the fixtures these days,the Champs would be declared round about Christmas the rate we are completing fixtures.
  4. but it's obvious that the BSPA are turning a blind eye to the situation and not wanting to upset each other.There has to be a rule introduced to make they get on with it.They couldn't run a raffle nowadays.
  5. Agree,but it's getting worse every year..Need for awarding fixtures is called for if clubs keep quabbling about rider availability.
  6. Thats your opinion ,I've seen ref let then sort themselves out on the first bend before stopping races. hey ho.
  7. Doesnt really matter when the red lights come on,if the ref was going to call it back he can stop the race when he thinks it's safe to do so.His reactions don't have to as fast as the riders!!!
  8. Well Nick Morris confirmed last night that he is used to Doyle's Team riding skills!!!!
  9. That was a decent meeting to watch,I've seen a lot worse,the riders from both Teams were giving it a go. Holder acting like a bit of a prat.he is not a good as he thinks he is.(yet)
  10. Trouble with Landshut is the track is not in Landshut itself is in a small village in the middle of nowhere about. 4/5 miles away with no train service and little bus service which returns to Landshut after the last train has left for Munich( as I found out).Lovely town though.
  11. Doyle in the semi, the race did not get pulled back though or it would have been a 2nd time for him.like I say not consistent.
  12. Doyle got to anticipate the start but Janowski got excluded .Not consistent.
  13. Interesting Zager praising PJR for his engines when others are deserting him,proves it more about set-ups.
  14. Complete farce just toss a coin and save the travelling for guest riders.
  15. While some may be stirring others are just asking why he was he was giving permission to miss the meeting,is this going to the norm excuse,to save any trouble ?
  16. Harris is already in the Top 8 from this years Longtrack GP therefore has Already qualified before today !!
  17. Harris has qualified for next years Longtrack,is that what you mean?
  18. Round about 2007/8 speaking to a rider who rode in what is now Championship as aHeat Leader and as a reserve in Elite League told me he was paid £80 a point and guarantee of 3pts scored in Elite League.He was on a sliding scale in Championship.
  19. Whilst I agree with your point,to be fair the riders weren't having major issues getting round the track held up well.The spectacle for the spectators was ruined though.
  20. Dont know,but think you might get a shock if somebody did tell.
  21. Like all professions some are good at their job work harder and longer hours and make more money.Its simple really if your not making enough money out the sport stop doing it.To much emphasis on the riders nowadays.There will be others come along and do the job IMO .
