Triple.H.

What about Cradley BARRbarians keeps the Cradley name with a link to the area the track is in and I suppose Heathens and Barbarians are similar

You forgot to mention Kevin Wolbert Though being serious, like yourself I find it hard to criticise any rider as it takes some guts to do their job.Also in many cases it's wrong team/track at the wrong time.

Which would probably be forthcoming along with a higher level of league racing and maybe even an FIM event if the local council believed the facts and not the Nimbys lies.

How does the horse hold the little the bottle ?

Testing after the meeting because what is to stop you not being picked for the premeeting test and then taking any substance performance enhancing or not after tests have been done .If as it appears from this forum people want more stringent testing why aren't tests done after meeting too.

But he wasn't caught drinking and riding he failed a test and due to the failure of the test was prevented from riding. If he failed a test after the meeting he would then have been caught drinking and riding. I'm certainly not condoning what happened but there is a big difference IMO

He needs continental meetings to carry on his learning curve if of course he wants to get higher up the food chain. IMO he'll learn more in a season in Sweden than he will in an EL season over here and as I see it next season is big step up or career stagnation for him. I wish him well whichever choice he makes but certainly think it's now or never for choosing which fork in the road to follow. It's better to try and end up failing than not trying at all as you should still learn from your failures

Could he be looking at Double up position over here and getting contracts in Sweden and Denmark fixed race nights so easy for planning fixtures around. Could pick up some Sunday meetings in Germany too possibly. Poland may pay good money but if you don't get paid on time if at all then is it worth the hassle.

Are they Mass Debaters ? I've often heard Poole fans called something similar.

Hopefully Jamie Robertson didn't ride in this as a guest for Mildenhall even though Buzz Burrows was available. I'm only having a giggle before any SuperSerious posters get all het up.

Light hearted comment mate

Gets him out of nappy changing duties

Matts masterstroke was signing Benji Compton after dropping every unattached fast track rider

Not forgetting the all important drug/alcohol checks lay off the Champers

If Garrity was an Aussie people would be talking about the raw talent he is.

I reckon Shame was unintentionally the cause of the fall his hard but fair riding along the straight caused Max to struggle for a decent line into the bend and when Bomber came in it would only need a slight touch on such a greasy track to cause a fall.

We all have a cross to bear

Uummmm No

But the post I quoted says you are signed in for the meeting till you leave. So say riders are picked for a test after the meeting as in other sports and say the winner is chosen and has had a swig or 2 of champagne they could possibly have alcohol detected in their system.

Let's hope they don't start testing the top 3 after a GP then Champagne and alcohol tests wouldn't be an ideal end to the evenings proceedings.

If the trials take as long as the Oscar Pistorius, trial they could have the playoff final as the winter meeting this year.

Phil Sweden and Poland will not be definitely finished there are considerations regarding weather though they seem to overcome those far easier than teams in Britain.Maybe this is the time to have 6 man teams with a reserve who can ride due to in meeting injury with a squad system and get everything done and dusted by mid September.

But he's a full on bums on seats rider
