Andersen Howarth King Michelsen Harris Would like a new number one ideally but can't see AJ riding for bees again . also with a higher limit would have liked kenni Larsen or Linus sundstrom as third heat leader but scuppered with the 2 over 7 rule.

Thinking about it ,the crick development of 6,000 houses must give rugby its housing stock for a number of years plus there are other big numbers of houses to be built at cawston ,one of 600 and another of 250 ,both of which are further ahead in the planning permission stakes than Brandon ,it all does give hope to the defence of speedway at the site.

Agree Harris, Howarth and the sarjeant should be nailed on. Definitely no Hansen and Andersen is 50/50 for me it's all well and good saying get rid but who would replace him. On reflection I would ditch Barker and go for Michelsen from Eastbourne. Assuming Garrity is assessed at about 4.5 ish and fast track riders of pedigree have to move into the top 5. And limit is top five 32 My boys would be Sundstrom/Andersen Garrity Michelsen Howarth Harris sarjeant ? Deal Shamek away to get Kyle and eddie to get Garrity to attain priority. Up the bees!

Fricko you little ripper ,what a prospect he is and Kyle what a performance . Outstanding showing from the bees against the robins who I thought would prevail. Let's see what next week brings, come on you stars on Thursday. -

Fair play to Hansen he did not trundle around at the back, well done bees. Set up for a good second leg . -

On current form bees are certain underdogs we have no engine room to match swindons Morris,Gustafson and in particular the impressive North. Can only see a Swindon win by 6 or 8 in the home leg and a right tonking at Swindon next week Don't think you can read much into last nights match in regards hansens form ,I fully expect him to be trundling around at the back on Monday. Hope I am wrong . -
Mads Harris not got the same ring to it as Stella ward though has it .

Coventry Vs Kings Lynn now Sept 4th - Empty Stadium ?
naffer replied to markyb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It is a shame but it's been said before - it's not how you start it's how you finish That's what the other half says! -
Good move, always best to have a rider who actually wants to ride for you. MJJ has great potential but too many commitments elsewhere and the bees are bottom of his priorities . Ben 100% racer who will liven things up for sure ,5 Brits in the side now quality,

Dehydrated.

I can see this being close the bees rarely give anyone a tonking. Batchelor Morris and little Henka go well at Brandon as does Worrall. I reckon 47-43 to bees and Nigel and kelvin going to meltdown mode with excitement.

I thought he was growing up a bit and handling himself better in interviews and acting with a tad more maturity then he does this. Throw the book at him .

good question midland red, not aimed at me I know but if I see a good meeting on sky ,it makes me want to see the bees on a Friday more than ever. I cannot get into the Swedish league at all it just seems strange watching riders you see in the elite league as rivals riding as team mates or vice versa ,maybe it's a generational thing. It used to irritate me the screaming twins that is ,but I think they have toned it down a bit this year although dear old Nigel is still likely to think someone has made a good gate when in fact they are mired at the back. All heading towards one league again I reckon back to the future 1965 is the new 2015.

Sorry for being a bit dim ,if anyone wants to buy Brandon to develop or change it's current use ,they then have to provide a motor sport facility elsewhere in the region as part of this covenant?
-
Reading back I have not made my point clearly. By doing both ,I meant selling Brandon and purchasing other sites for development. But it is a good point you make why isn't sandhu seeking pp and then selling.
-
RIP a name synonymous with kings Lynn.
-
Not mad. But as a businessman you would do both, sell Brandon for building if permission could be gained. Whilst looking elsewhere to purchase any other potential sites with the proceeds from Brandon. Building applications are on the up ,where I live near leamington there have been 4 large site applications recently. Which might speed up the sale of Brandon if things are moving forward in the housing game. Personally I think this will be a long drawn out affair as planning permission will be hard to achieve in Brandon going by previous attempts to change things at the stadium. Up the nimbys.

Swindon Robins V Coventry Bees 26th June 2014
naffer replied to mdmc82's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I thought it was his back,no need to bring his sexual habits into a public forum. -
Almost instant karma
-
Eloquent explanation from Rory.

A white van and men with matching coats for " our kids" fan

True class rider, super smooth . A great rider who used to blast around Brandon in such a sublime way just like Ronnie Moore. I always used to think him and Terry Betts were total quality. RIP Simmo.
-
All this talk of ousting ryan must be very unsettling for him and rather insensitive don't you think! How about Linus sundstrom.

Where do you start? For me it was little boy blue in the early sixties when the old man first took me to speedways cheerful centre. Booey carried the team for so long until the Danish maestro was snaffled from the wolves. Ron mountford brave as anyone lifted on his bike to race ,Jim lightfoot, Col Cotterell, rick France roger hill from my earliest memories. I remember one year we had a guest all year as Garry Middleton did not appear for whatever reason that was grim. Bob Valentine arrived loved him as a rider but not the rider he seemed as a Sheffield tiger I think he packed it in after one year with the bees. Ole signed and transformed us although the rider I really liked that first Olsen era year was Alan Molyneux . Mitch Shirra Jiri stancl we suddenly had a competitive team. Two opposition performances I always remember from this era were Dag Lovaas cruising to a 15pt Max in one meeting and Bo Petersen for Hackney miles ahead one night. Peter Collins (Spinorama King) and Michanek Briggs Mauger oh my life what riders. Ray Wilson looking back whilst in front in the Brandanopolis and coming a cropper, cannot remember who won it. The two back to back years with Tommy and Kelvin JJ and Rick my favourite team with David Bargh ,Clarky and andy Hackett. Brian Andersen another bees great never really took to hans Nielsen great rider though. I could go on but I will leave it there up the bees
