World Cup Final 2nd August 2014
Fromafar replied to mickthemuppet's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Harris is like a broken record.I think he has a tape recording of his reply to interviews it's virtually the same every time word for word.Unfortunately he is still in the squad because there is nobody better. -

Cannot see much changing,when you see the guys hanging about in NL racing for years that tells you a lot about their desire to reach the Top. -

Thorny subject,but I agree with you regarding Young Brits.its a selfish sport you have just got to knuckle down and get on with it instead of moaning about support from BSPA .Main trouble nowadays is trying to find Sponsers in what is a Mickey Mouse sport in this country nowadays. -

Don't know what all the fuss is regarding Kidemands riding he is a tremendous entertainer and improving rapidly,that's what you pay money for to watch. -

Back to the meeting,I think if Kolodiuz had kept chasing Ward Iversen would not have be able to pass him, but IMO he went to protect his position on the last lap and scrubbed of some of his speed.Still was a great race from Iversen. -

Don't know what all the fuss about Team GB is ,it would not have mattered who they picked or who was in charge it would have been the same result.we are just not good enough and are along way short of being a force in World Speedway again.Nothing will change in the near futureIMO. -

Agree good meeting and a great track,is there some kind of boycott regarding Bydgoscz with the Poles, they like their Speedway you would have thought the place would have been packed out.Strange one.Some edge of the seat racing and a great finish to the meeting. -
Hancock has a superb riding style ,smooth as silk going faster that Ward and Co without hanging off a bucking bronco.Tai is in the same mould as Hancock IMO smooth as silk on the bike. Greg has few years left in him yet judging by what we are watching.

That's the problem nowadays the riders just don't want to ride a wet track,Health and Safety rules ,I certainly won't be traveling to Berwick tomorrow with rain in the forecast.Too many meetings called off IMO can't afford to waste money on travelling wondering if the riders fancy it or not,or start meeting with the intention of running 10 heats and calling a result.

Thought Nilsson was unlucky to get excluded ,there were plenty hard moves in last nights meeting,experienced riders read them most of the time,the Czech tried to keep it wound on in a no win situation IMO.Some good racing last night the Final should be a cracker if they don't make the track to slick.

trouble was it wasn't Lindons money they were spending by the sound of things and events that followed. -
Berwick Vs Edinburgh 12/8 Live On Sky
Fromafar replied to bigeddiechek's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I would disagree,he was aWorld Class Rider and to chance coming to Berwick at that stage of his career was a brave move and he never let us down also appeared in the World Final as a Bandit help us win aTrophy EL level.Class act.Whether he ever got the money he was promised well only he can answer that.You never know how long he would have been a Bandit if Lindon hadn't done a runner . -
Sheffield Vs Somerset Pl On Sky 28/07
Fromafar replied to Tigerish's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Another good advert for PL speedway,some tremendous racing on a well prepared track.First time I have seen Brady Kurtz he is a talent .Good news for Andre,he was riding superbly before his misfortune wish him a speedy return. -

have to agree the main problem in speedway these days is that technology has taken over. -
