the problem is when the british riders make a bad start to a meeting, especially in the world cup it takes a lot to get them going. plus the team spirit doesn't sound too good, even if denmark had made a bad start, i'm sure the team spirit would have still been there to pull them through it.

yet, everyone last year was saying he should have been in the team instead of kennett and this year when he is everyone starts moaning!!

after one match! stead and allen should be trying to prove to him why they should have been picked for the race off. it should act as a motivation.

rosco wouldn't have any hair left if he had to manage gb and swindon!!

you're right. if the other riders scored the points they should have. then i'm sure olly wouldn't be getting critised.

it was unfair on simon to put him in the team anyway. he's been struggling all year. its probably his worst season in the elite league and yet he's picked for the world cup, doesn't make sense even if it is at coventry.

hoping the aussies can give them a run for their money. interesting that the aussies have a team of ex/current poole riders and do a lot better than a team of ex/current coventry riders!!

like what exactly? a lot of airlines do double book people on their flights.

the final of the gp qualifers was at poole in 2003.

i'm not trying to make it sound like he's a victim, perhaps i should have worded it differently!! just meant its a shame his flight got delayed and couldn't make it on time, so he could have his chance to qualify like everyone else.

looks like kenny made the most of his second chance.

that is very true. but at least they got the chance. we'll never know if davey would have qualified now.

gutted for davey. was hoping he was gonna complete mission impossible and get to the track on time.

there is a link on the meeting thread in the international section.

poor davey! its shame he's in heat one and not in heat four or something.

i just meant that i don't agree with blazeaway about his aussie bias. who had a chat with ole about the ref and he's not an aussie he's a dane! bjarne did as reported in the echo. so how is there any aussie bias!!

hmm, looks like bjarne had a big say in it.

looks like i'm digging myself a deeper hole. i'll quit now before i make it worse!

i meant the polish ref being removed from the gp's

this is good news.

i think tai will do well. boycey picked holder for the aussies last year and he was riding premier league then and he did well and i think tai will as well.

i heard a lot of booing on the parade for nicki. was surprised though as i haven't heard that at cardiff before. it was more than a few people to me!!

i must have been lucky where i sat then. there were a few people booing, but i think that was the belle vue fans to the left of me!! i didn't have anyone around me swearing at nicki.

i see leigh adams has said that the ref should be doing conference league. not sure what the conference league has done to deserve that!!

nicki has complained about the booing at poole before but when he's on the parade and gets booed he's always laughing, so i don't really buy it.
