  1. As one of the Top men in the WWE I shall be arriving by luxury helicopter with a bevy of scantily clad beauties. The ladies will have their sexy bloomers with them as they probably won' know what weather to expect on a summer' day up north by the North sea.
  2. I haven't a clue how close the nearest train station is to Redcar, but if a reasonably short distance away why not go by train from Newcastle to Redcar. May even be a suitable trip for fans of other teams. Go the whole hog and charter a train like Mad Wellie did all those years ago. Train companies nowadays can with a bit of notice be very accommodating to slight changes in timetables and stops. In 2016 when Oxford Utd got to the JPT trophy final, Chiltern Trains who had opened a line between Oxford and Marylebone 6 months before altered their timetable so all trains between Oxford and London stopped at Wembley. They made money, supporters got a cheap and quick journey, I bet the company are still reaping the rewards as I bet a fair few people who wouldn't normally consider going to London by train before then, now do.
  3. I might be having a senior moment, but I seem to remember John Davis owning his own contract.
  4. Probably an obscure rule that means he can ride at reserve in the NL
  5. I thought the few times Simon Stead was a pundit, that he was excellent
  6. If your staying in Prague. Get the rattler to Pardubice and stay overnight there
  7. Haven' seen the race but maybe not under lower when race stopped ?
  8. I' sure they'e tried and tried but it hasn' worked. So trying the transients is the next best option. To be fair the track is out in the middle of nowhere so to speak. I can only think of Cradley and ourselves(Oxford) that were tracks with a lot of fans within walking distance of the track. Obviously upto the late 60s tracks did attract a far more local home crowd.
  9. You'e a proper fan Win,Lose or draw cheer your team on. You had enough seasons without a team. Cherish it now they'e back
  10. Thanks for the Info I knew changeover day was friday/Saturday. So in the past it would be a problem, but now maybe the promotions work in that area may bring some rewards. In reality with the World Champion and a great racetrack you would think people would be flocking in. IMO even though it is obviously for team building purposes Swindon are mad not to use him. A Town like Swindon with a World Champion in the team should be packing them in. At least they'e trying which is far more than some promotions do.
  11. Must be some sort of way of marketing the World Champion to the people staying at the various holiday camps and campsites in the area. Admittedly the owners of the holiday camps want people to stay in house as much as possible. But how many children get to see a current World Champion in any sport up close.
  12. Not often I agree with Steve, but that's a forward thinking idea. Also a possibility of sponsorship too. If Poole/Bournemouth is anything like Oxford there seems to be loads of independent coffee roasters looking to upsize their business by getting their beans into more independent cafe' and shops. If you signed him you could market Timo (Tea-mo) and Lahti (no explanation needed)
  13. Mine arrived today it generally arrives Thursday occasionally on the Friday if there's a bank holiday.
  14. Aahh But this is the BSF it always goes a bit off topic. Sometimes good sometimes bad(petty bickering) but I for one enjoy reading about people' thoughts on the good old days etc
  15. That Smell Lynyrd Skynyrd I don' know anyone who doesn' love the smell of Speedway
  16. For years the shock was Glasgow winning at home Now they have a team to be proud of, though they were probably proud of every team they had even in the dark old years.
  17. You want to get them in the bath on a sunday night. Scrub that grime out ready for school on monday
  18. I did see that sports journalist Oliver Holt had retweeted the Oxford Mail story about the possibility of getting Speedway and Greyhounds back in Oxford. He said let' get the speedway back.
  19. GTech beat me to it. Though I didn' know Cliff owned a cottage there but I knew he lived in the village.
  20. Bloody Hell how many yards was a lap of that track ? Pekka Hautamaki was a rider I enjoyed watching
  21. Had a chat with him and Ole Olsen in Horspath on the monday after the 81 World Final
  22. Lets hope we can see the return of The Cheetahs
