  1. Yes. Tapes Up will record every meeting at Brough this season, after the sad loss of Bob Tasker (GRT Media).
  2. Team Photo: Sean Stoddart, Jonas Raun, Ashley Johnson, Christian Henry, Ross Brady, Carl Wilkinson and Josef 'Pepe' Franc. (2007).
  3. His last average was for Edinburgh in 2010 and he finished on 6.39
  4. It really depends where you go and when. To be honest, one of the last places you ought to be going to see loads of overtaking, is Berwick. A lot can also depend who the opposition is. Lots of teams turn up at certain tracks and are beaten before the start of heat 1, but, if the opposition are prepared to give it a go, then you can be entertained. Last weekend, for example, I saw a dreadful meeting at Berwick (Berwick v Newcastle), but saw a half decent to good meeting at Brough Park the following night between the two sides. Last night at Workington I saw another poor meeting, where I saw two overtakes all night. But, I have seen some great matches at Workington (both when Newcastle have been there and also when they haven't). Somerset is usually good value and Scunthorpe isn't too bad either. Glasgow, usually, can produce decent racing, now they've adjusted the track. I've given up on the EL (TV). I've even given up going to Cardiff for the Grand Prix. I can't comment on the NL. Perhaps a NL fan can respond.
  5. Broke his left arm in two places. Copied and Pasted from Team McGurk Facebook page: Back home from hospital now, my left arm has broken in two places I can handle the pain but devastated I will miss out on this years world final in torun. But I... would like to wish all the British lads Jordan Palin Danjoe Thompson the best of luck and just give it your all boys. I would also like thank all the people at the track that helped my mum and dad Paul Bickley, Anthony Bickley, Bob Curl, Tammy Buck and anyone else who helped. Hope to see you all at trackside soon H
  6. Update here: http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100500
  7. That's because it's been updated from the original page, when it said Kus was riding!
  8. Brian and Gary Havelock The Swales lot! Bob and Michael Coles Peter and Deon Prinsloo
  9. So........ according to the Diamonds website - Kus rides!! http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100499
  10. Meeting OFF according to Workington Facebook page. According to Bears Twitter feed "Unfortunately tonights meeting is postponed. After too much rain yesterday and working all day on the track there is too much moisture." And "Rider safety is paramount and sorry for late call. New date will be announced asap."
  11. No idea. Don't know if Tero will be there. George, in his Raceday Magazine column, just says Matej "has a national recall from the Czech Federation which means we will be using rider replacement to cover his absence."
  12. Add to that list Gary Havelock (Prob a manager) Jason Garrity Jason King Andrew Tully Scott Robson. As for the admission prices, the prices are as for a PL match. Season Tickets are NOT valid and the Online and card payment facilities are also NOT available, as it's not an official Diamonds fixture. Hope this helps.
  13. Perhaps, therein, lies the answer to your question. There are many, many more, like yourself, who have been lost to the sport, for whatever reason.
  14. It was allowed because "it's only a Challenge match." Won't be allowed in League matches etc.
  15. I'm sure Newcastle fans (including me), would have loved the full Newcastle team at Berwick tonight.
  16. Just been Tweeted by Scunthorpe: ANNOUNCEMENT: New signing to make his debut on Sunday to be revealed within next couple of hours. Guess who?
  17. Just been Tweeted by Newcastle: FIXTURE INFO: WE WILL NO LONGER BE TRAVELLING TO REDCAR NEXT THURS (14th) New date to be confirmed #diamonds #speedway
