  1. Not his biggest fan but congratulate him,he seems to have stepped up a gear this season.Wish him well in Final.Looks a tough ask!
  2. It's scandalous that Francetti was given the wild card.
  3. The negatives are the fans waiting 50 min for ambulance and treatment to injured rider they won't want that every week.Luckily the other fallers escape major injury or the meeting would have been abandoned.
  4. That's how I saw it.Track needed a bit throttle control that's all.Clegg and Greaves were clueless and lucky to get round most races.Mountain was in control and got some points by riding steady.
  5. There was dampness in the air all day and light rain forecast for late afternoon which is what happened.Still that is history ,poor advert for the standard of the sport and if there were any newcomers doubt they will be back( judging by size of crowd not many though)£17 is not value for money IMO . True.!
  6. Monarchs were down to 3 riders that could turn a corner and yet still won!!
  7. they need to check the weather forecast it was spot on for Friday over Armadale.Can only see a couple of riders that would want a grippy track on last nights performance .
  8. While a grippy track may be fine,there are not enough ambulances available for the meeting to run smoothly IMO .
  9. That was dire all round,first best wishes to Mark Riss hope his injury is not to bad (all we were told it was a hand injury sounds nasty though).the track was bit tricky but some riders did not have a clue how to set up or ride it.Conner Mountain deserves a mention because he recognised the conditions and rode sensibly then they take him out Ht 14 for Greaves who was a total liability all night!!!. King ,Newman and Schlien all threw good points away,Ipswitch must be wondering how they managed to lose the match.Clegg was poor and clueless and was gifted most of his points Apart from 1 ride Pickering struggled and Davey was just the usual.As a advert for British speedway it was poor and I certainly won't be back in a hurry .Masters was the class act apart from his " get off" which caused Marks crash.All in All dire.If the track is not as slick as a motorway way these days all these young superstars haven't a clue how to ride,the throttle works both ways. If he could stay on it ,it would help.
  10. Do you mean the name Berwick is getting round Ipswich.
  11. There was a strong hint on Sat the Dany would be "travelling".
  12. The whole sport is embarrassing regarding guests etc,Home "select" v Away "select" is how it should be advertised most meetings.
  13. That a new saying "this mainly young and amateur league".they might surprise you with the money they make.
  14. Would that not be 38 years?
  15. Hell knows but the name Armando will have something to do with it.Hungary were also lucky IMO.
  16. Carr has a few of these nights when he doesn't gate.Imo
  17. He did,Holder coat must be on a shoogly nail though.
  18. You have got to hand it to Doyle after the knocks he has taken he is in there full bore,deserves to do well.Zager and Iversen are starting to fade IMO .
