  1. Excellent preview,however you forgot the most important thing ,you never gave the referees report from last week, bet it wasn't as good as a track near you.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. Maybe Berwick were hoping Glasgow were going to turn up with just 6 riders to see how good they are.!!!!!!!!
  3. Aye right! Dont really think it would matter who guests on Sat think Tigers will be to strong for us IMO .Happy to be proved wrong though.Still early season for a lot of riders.
  4. Trouble is at Pl level he doesn't miss the gate too often.
  5. Was impressive on the bike,opposition non existant .
  6. Was impressed by Lambert,stylish.Lakeside what a load of rubbish.
  7. My point is not about what Team is tracking aSelect Team ,it is about the state of the sport.I certainly won't be attending now ,it could have been billed as Great local derby against a team that thinks it's going to take Monarchs title away now it's damp squib.Still that's Speedway.
  8. Shielfield specialist and cheap,what more could you ask for.
  9. people wonder why the sport is dyeing on the as#re.!!!!!! there the answer.Who care whether it's a challenge or not there is not a reduction in admission prices for watching a select Team.Joke
  10. Just switch the hare on that used for the Greyhounds that should keep them occupied.
  11. Maybe All will be revealed on the bus to Glasgow.!!!!
  12. I think it is because they modified the tracks to suit the bikes instead of leaving the dirt on and letting the riders set up bikes to suit tracks with dirt.They would soon have had to detune them ,the racing would still have been as good (only my opinion)
  13. You have not explained why we already have spot the fans in this sport as it is.
  14. When you see the lengths that F1 have went to to produce a better product over the years why can't speedway put in measures to slow the sport down and still have competitive racing.Alot of the young riders today just don't have the control of the bike,it's taking them round.Barker was unlucky IMO he realised he was too fast on the outside pulled a locker but I'm sure the back wheel just touch the air fence which caused the bike to "stand up" and he high sided .But in general the bikes are to fast nowadays Imo Ps Great laydown by Ludvig to miss Ben .Not so sure that some of today's younger riders have the skills required in these situations.
  15. Apologies that is what he actually said.I was assuming that actual points that would be awarded 4-3-2-0 if reverting to normal which was wrong.
  16. I have it recorded so I will check it out.He said 3-2-1 for heats,what his actual words were for semi I am sure he said it was reverting to what you are saying ,so are we confused.?
  17. The eurosports commentator stated it was 3-2-1 points for heats up to semi race off the it was reverting to 4-3-2-0 for race off and Final.
  18. Have to agree,the throttle control and skill have been taken out of the the sport and riders nowadays will only ride on dry ,slick tracks (unless open meetings where they might lose earnings if they don't poodle round ).Fans have gave up turning up if there is a Cloud in the sky. Health and Safety rules nowadays ,it's no good promotions moaning about the weather affecting their business when for years they have done nothing to stop technology taking over the sport.IMO
