  1. Oh! Renton who asked you to jump in ,Part time supporter.Imagine taking your Holidays during THIS season
  2. I can see you being made the new" oracle" with all this information you are divulging. Stealing someone's thunder me thinks
  3. Has been done on forum, My choice would also be Ryan Fisher
  4. Your not going to make a GP rider I'm afraid Speedway is dangerous. Tiddleywinks for you
  5. You must have a different video to me then. Some of the other manouvers must have had you hiding under the table
  6. Emil has a lot to learn about GP Speedway if he though Scott was hard on him. Ashley Holloway showed himself to be a complete muppet in front of the cameras. He should be banned from pit area ,what happened was between the riders and he had no right giving Nichols the nudge on the way past.Better keep his glasses on next time he sees Nichols
  7. For what its worth my opinion is Nikki could have turned earlier but was trying to make sure Emil did not just ride round as he would have probably done. Can see both side of the arguments though.Iwould have excluded Nikki though.
  8. Well done to Chris Harris you can NEVER fault his effort. Never been an Ed Kennet fan TILL this season has matured on and off the track IMO. WELL DONE some tremendos efforts if he could gate consistantly he would be there among the big boys. As for Richardson still the same when the chips are down and a very bad sportsman to boot as shown on Monday and Tonight. Seems to think he is the only one that is allowed to ride hard but fair.Very poor loser.
  9. From a neutral point of view i think Nichols is a better rider than Harris . Chris is lucky to get another chance ( if you can being in the GP lucky) But the GP is still about 1/2dozen same contenders per meeting (if that) the rest are there just to make up the numbers and create a little bit of excitment same as Harris and Nichols. IMO Nicky will be champ again (injuries permitting). How many changes in the last couple of seasons for the top 8 spots not many(must check that one out). Its just a touring circus now and an OLE OLSEN closed shop.
  10. Crump is still good enough to win again but he needs a decent back up team or faster bikes or better set up .He looked pedestrian most of the season should not be getting past every GP.Bikes look dodgy IMO.
  11. The track has been poor most of the season IMO which is a shame as it would produce some awesome passing with the team we had. Many away team riders commented that the track was rubbish (not their actual wording!!!)
  12. Must admit i preferred the traditional format 5 rides top scorer wins anybody else agree?
  13. Well Done Tai a suberb and controlled performance. The Real Deal IMO. Classic style and effortless. Great performance from Adrian and contributed greatly to the meeting, probably had the most passes on the day to get his points.Made it a great day out for the Berwick fans. He has been superb all season and now a genuine No1. Waite should make him the 1st signing for next season NOW.(but he wont) Was there strutting his stuff with Adrian though (he likes a little bit of the limelight me thinks).
  14. All this debate,and really you are talking about them just getting a top 8 spot for next year.How can you critisise Walasek and Umanik places they are not any worse than the Brits. Cannot see Nichols or Harris ever finishing in the top 3 at the end of a GP series. What i will say is at least they are not gating tarts and do put 100% into their racing unlike a few others.
  15. Can you explain the lack of ENGLISH riders coming through then. To be fair the scotland have had a few in recent years without training facilities Grieves, lLamb ,Tully ,Stoddart,Lawson spring to mind. It is not for the want of trying that training facilities are not in place.Local councils public objections are a problem though.
  16. National Event in PL calendar ,Lots of top men missing .Usual these days I will just give it a miss. Why bother with these events now they hold no status, it is just a case of who will turn up.
  17. After Cardiff i am sure if we had a world junior drinking competition, i am positive ayoung BRIT would win thats how dedicated they are to speedway
  18. What i am saying is they are not out of their depth. After all they are not even in the bottom 2 in the points total. Therefore i dispute your point. 8th and 9th last your suggests to me they are GP level . Whether they remain there is another story IMO. Neither will ever be World Champ IMO but there again there are few others in the same boat. At this moment they are the top Brits.
  19. When you say no passing you mean the brits did not pass anybody .The meeting i watched had a fair bit of passing .
  20. In Scott Nichols and Chris Harris Britain have 2 riders that are at GP level . IMO we have nobody else even close at this moment.Apart from Tai Woffinden i personaly cannot see where the next GP rider is coming from. If we believe the hype Britain have the riders but cant set up their bikes to suit the track conditions WHAT A LOAD OF SH*T. Dont know the answer either!
  21. Unfortunately when the Grand Prix are held on a proper track Ole and his "team "even make a mess of that by making them slick. Proper track a nice bit of dirt and these men will show you what SPEEDWAY really is . Whilst i really admire the superb skills of the top men these are the same people who would walk out of a league match pack up and go home if faced with the conditions they have had tonight. It is happening to often now , if man - made tracks cannot be perfected by now they never will be IMO.
  22. Think Kelvin must have stuck a foot in Pearsons mouth last night, he suddenly stopped prattling on about the meeting winner when he realised he had confused HIMSELF. What was all that about!!!!!!!!!!!!
