Newport Wessex Bus Hornets V Weymouth
Pirate Nick replied to Main Man's topic in National League Speedway
Coming over from deepest darkest Dorset for this one. Looking forward to Kyle getting a hatful! To be honest I'll be surprised if the Hornets dont hit 60 tonight. Still you have to admire Mr Bartletts optimism -
:lol: Many a true word spoken in jest.

This was metioned to me at the Buccs v Buxton meeting. I asked why the objection to Wright. I was told the reason and also told that if Chris signed for a Premier team we would have to look for a new no 1.

Cheers BOSS. Will probably give it a go next time I come down.

Gothenberg Gp 08/05
Pirate Nick replied to shankley61's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Has anyone got an internet stream for this one? -
I was in the glass stand watching the Sky replays. Robinson (he doesn't deserve to be called the ref) had the blue light on before Sky had re played the incident. You could clearly see that Hougards dirt deflector had hit Doyles front wheel. I feel that he rushed the decision and then didn't have the balls to admit he was wrong. The man is a disgrace.

Leszno Gp - 24th April 2010
Pirate Nick replied to GregM's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
What a breath of fresh air that was. Just goes to show if you let the local track staff get on with it you get good racing. On a Poole note good debut from Chris Holder and well done Zorro on your first GP race win. -
Terrible Speedway Accident - Zbigniew Raniszewski
Pirate Nick replied to Puma23's topic in Years Gone By
Google translation Fritz Dirtl (1928 - 1956) Promising speedway rider M. Schneeweise student who died early in MS in Oberhausen. Besides the gold helmets, which went on special Schneeweise his mentor, won the title of champion of Austria, long and Short Track, was also successful in road races. What happened to the trophies are still not be detected. -
Interesting comment from the commentator (Lanning?). Ole Olsen the last of an era as now the machinery is starting to become more important than the rider (or something along those lines). How true that comment has turned out to be.

Assuming you are over 21, what you do in the privacy of your own tiny room is your business -

Swc Event 2, Peterborough 13.7.
Pirate Nick replied to tomazpozrl's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Why dont you 2 pick your best side.Then decide would you have bet on them to win the meeting (with your own hard earned cash). If after thinking about it your answer is yes i would then I think the bookies will be queuing up to take your bets for the rest of the season! IMO the team on Monday did all that was expected of them and learned some valuable lessons on the way. Putting Lee or Scott in on Monday would not have altered the final result so why not blood the younger riders and acheive the same result? -

Following the meetings on Speedway.nu. What has happened at the Vargana-Vastervik meeting. The updates screen has gone to be replaced with the following text: Matchdata saknas för Vargarna - Västervik. Möjlig anledning kan vara att matchen ej har spelats utan är en walkovermatch. Can anyone tell me whats happened?

He is exciting to watch, however he needs to sharpen his gating up if he wants to compete with the best. Have to say he's always good to watch at Poole grabbing a big handful round the outside but he cant get away with that so much against the big boys in the GP. Especially not given the way Olsen prepares the tracks (completely cocked up a cracking racing track last night again!!). Gating is the key and he needs to improve significantly before he will make any impact in the series.
