  1. The thing with the young Australians is most come here and bust a gut to earn money as they ain't got Mum and Dad a few miles away to bale them out. I've said it on here before. So I'll repeat myself. Too many young British riders think they've made it when they get a signwritten van and a bit of eyecandy on their arm. Also of you were a young British Rider and wanted to really upset the applecart, I'm sure the relevant authorities would frown upon untried riders requiring a visa getting a job while a British citizen doesn't.
  2. Didnt John McNeill release a single about wanting to be like Ivan Mauger
  3. It doesnt hammer down with rain in the Sweet City we have liquid sunshine
  4. Just make sure the bar is well stocked and manned when Edinburgh and Glasgow come to town.
  5. Poole fans will have you walking the plank as interval entertainment.
  6. Yes But he signed Peter Schroek too. If I remember correctly. So 50% of the first influx of EEC riders at NL level weren't really upto the job. HenryW must be top of the averages for fast typing
  7. I know of someone who had a season ticket but didn't go to meetings as we had signed Mr Rossiter
  8. Not a Newcastle fan but I do have a suggestion that maybe other teams could also take up. 1st meeting of the season a draw for all ST holders. 1st prize ST cost refunded 2nd Prize £50 refund plus a Club Polo/T shirt. 3rd prize if you have an NDL team free entry to 3 or 4 of their standalone meetings.
  9. If I remember correctly wasn't there a Golden live TV moment when Andre Compton won the PLRC. Being interviewed in what looked like a large Gazebo and some fan poked his head through and shouted something that implied AC had hairy palms.
  10. So I'm kind of, in a roundabout way, sort of more or less correct
  11. Remember reading somewhere that Kevin Smith was called Smelly because he didn't shower till he got home
  12. Wasn't that a double header and Wiggy I think got injured during the first match. Mr Evitts guested for those Mighty Fine Cheetahs in the 2nd match. When he and Rasser were due to ride in one race. Rasser just rode through the tapes and replaced by a reserve. When interviewed Rasser said something alonv thd lines of he wouldn't ride in the same race as that B'stard
  13. Not RR An NL guest who only rode NL at start of the season and on the same Start Points Travel money As the rider they're replacing
  14. Carrying a few extra pounds now that middle age spread has hit. We all suffer from it.
  15. Let's be honest if MD is as big as he was the last time I saw him then they'd have to cull a herd of Wildebeast to make his racesuit.
  16. Sure I read in the Star a few weeks back that he was looking for a team spot.
  17. TBH if he was dropped by Text then the management deserve any criticism he fires their way. There are polite and proper ways to sack people. Those being sacked may not like it but I daresay most would accept it more gracefully if it was done in a more correct manner.
  18. NO MEETING AT BERWICK ON MAY THE 9TH 2020. Sorry thats my best guess
  19. My Mother in Law would be a natural for Cow Racing. Ooh I've gone all 70s Comedians there.
  20. In the event of British Speedway ever getting an independent body in charge. BJ and PP are probably in with a shout of being the preferred choices for that body by the BSPA
  21. Surely any sensible promotion would be sniffing around Josh Pickering. His career is on the up whereas you could easily argue Todd Kurtz and Ricky Wells have peaked. No offence to TK or RW. Winning titles is about getting a few riders who can put a bit on their average. Averaging 8 at home and 2-3 away isn't the kind of rider you want. One always comes in handy but too many and you get punished in away matches.
  22. Not allowed Bangers etc at Oxford. If Stadium does reopen Dogs will be running. The Greyhound racing fraternity have also played a major part in the fight to get the Stadium reopened.
  23. I've heard he has a decent and reasonably well known sponsor.
  24. Fairly sure there was something similar 15 - 20 years ago where ST holders got a couple of quid off entry or a free programme. But I think it was only when your team were riding there.. Just had an idea. Why don't the BSPA issue an annual photo ID for say £50. Which gives the holder a £1 reduction on entry to any track for any meeting except for shared events. All profits after admin fees to the Ben Fund.
  25. It's the hottest day of the year in Cardiff and the SGP Bandwagon has rolled into town, closely followed by a small army in various Wulfsport jackets. My mates and me often wonder how the wearers survive in the heat
