  1. It is unclear at this moment how long Vissing will be out though,if it is just another month we would surely wait for him to return.Difficult one for the Promotion IMO
  2. Nobody likes R/r but I think the trouble with Vissing could be if he is out longer than a month and you replace him you might not be able to get him back in if the averages change (in the wrong direction)without dropping someone else if the signed riders ride well.Difficult one because Claus is definitely above his average in home meetings and can ill afford to lose him.We shall see.
  3. thread should be retitled Poole v Kings Lynn Select.!
  4. Agree,this will show who can step up to the plate when it matters.Fancy Sheffield for a decent size win.
  5. Agree,their judgement should not be subject to "you have never ridden a bike "which seem to be the case nowadays.
  6. I agree,the Ref's are not strong enough these days,riders and Team Managers harass them too much.The point being that it is seldom the riders and Team Managers agree just like Monday purely because of self interest and score at the time.Speedway is a dangerous sport but that card is used too often now.Watt would moan if the track was perfect ,he didn't even have any opposition and he was telling how hard it was.Tiddlywinks springs to mind!!!!. No fan in their right mind will turn up on a wet night if they had any sense .just to watch a squabble between Managers,riders and officials.
  7. Dont think that applies to injured riders.
  8. Not a lot that we can afford IMO .there are a few though.Pepe would do a job but don't think he is interested.
  9. Its all fine and well discussing 10 heat matches and who gets what points,What about the fans what should they get in return when this happens, as usual treated like sh#t.Not good enough.
  10. He is in the Stal Squad this season .He practiced there with them at their Squad day.
  11. Nothing to moan about for a few weeks due to lack of fixtures.still no doubt we will be back in full swing before the season is out.
  12. Worcrow and Torun respectively for them
  13. If I remember rightly he did not walk out that day after the thunderstorm!!!!!!!!
  14. If you need the Ht 10 rule ,then give the fans a refund of 1/3 of entrance fee on the way out.!! Judging by last there won't be big queue's waiting if the weather is inclement .
  15. The 3 you mention have tried and failed to take the step up.
  16. Has he not stated that he is trying to break into the Polish League.He is a top Brit but that's as far as it goes,we are not full of world class riders nowadays though.
  17. It was strange how Pearson was silent about running 10 heats last night,he usually never stops repeating it in normal wet meetings!!! Think he knew something!!
  18. It's strange how Speedway becomes a dangerous sport around Heat 9 on a wet track.Harris must have been told to sit in the Pits he would have revelled in these conditions.
  19. Craig Cook is nothing more than Top PL rider.
  20. Agree,and just have the play -off between yourselves and rebels next week and save a lot of promotions running meaningless meetings!!!!!!!
  21. Yep, that's why the Heat 10 rule should be scrapped,if not 15 heats there should no result.That would make them think a it more whether to start the meeting or not.
  22. Tonight shows that how out of control the sport is,who runs the meeting,the Ref,theTeam Managers or the riders,it seems a different group every time there is controversy .Dont even leave the house now if there is a cloud In the sky,even then Rye was called of because of a dusty track a couple of weeks ago,you couldn't make it up.The sport is pathetic these days.
  23. Garrity has trouble controlling the bike when the track is ok .He is not a yardstick Imo
