Congratulations to `4 points at cardiff a good night` Scottie. Probably the best rider on the night won. Woffy was unlucky when leading the 1st running but thats the breaks - and didnt look that quick all night. Wishes go to Danny and Robert as they were both nasty accidents - i cannot believe they both re-appeared in their next heats. Kennett certainly looking quicker (insert your own joke if needed). A long night but a good amount of good heats to make it wortwhile. Monmore certainly a bit slicker than is usual and hasnt been at its best the past couple of weeks. But we can at least still show what a good race track can offer.

You must be so proud. Yea i know its meant to be funny. Shame it aint.

I like Cook. Glad that he is sticking at Speedway and hope he takes the next step and move up the EL otherwise he will start stagnating very quickly. He has shown that he can hold his own already in the EL. Definetly one of the brighter hopes for the home nation. Just hope his desire to move his career on matches his natural talent. That said Tai is the pick of all the `young` riders on show tonight.

Agreed. I admire Robert for sticking at the EL, he has definetly improved as a rider. As he got any foreign commitments because that would really help his career move forward. And beaten on his own home track. By the way GB didnt qualify for the final. (from updates Peterborough V wolves last week) Heat 09: Woffinden, Jepsen Jensen, Sundstrom, Ingalls 3-3 (26-28) 65.0 Read more: http://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=Peterborough&action=display&thread=10462#ixzz21x4HG37w

Id never be mistaken for that thing! Tho if i said i wished MJJ was in the British Final you might suggest id been taken over by yet another username lol

Naturally as a Wolves fan i believe Tai will go into the meeting red hot favourite. However the only concern will be how fit he is after his get off at Poole. As usual i expect Harris and Bomber to be in the final. However Auty could spring a surprise and my tip for the top 4 final along with Bomber tai and Scottie is ROYNON.

Thats what i gathered. thanks all for the tips

Thanks greyhoundp. Got those details just wondered if there was a sat nav detail i could put in! Im visiting tomorrow for a skid

Is there a postcode for the track please or sat nav link tar

Welll said, and well said Nigel. Calling a spade a spade and not sitting on the fence. Hopefully there will be changes next year.

Just speedway racing please, not speedway shutting off off the 4th bend. Thank you very much. Oh and just a small tub of coleslaw, thanks

Well we are all entitled to liking who we want arent we. However id wait for hell to freeze over before id join you in that like.

It must a terrible thing to have to come to terms with , i mean admitting your a Nicki P fan. I think id rather admit to being a hoodie in the riots Its meant to be bad!! thats why its such a joke!

Your entitled to your opinion as im mine. The RULE is cheating the sport and making it a farce. how can anyone defend riders shutting off off the 4th bend and blatantly trying to give away points and therefore suggest it is perfectly ok and doesnt bring the sport into farcial terittory is beyond me quite honestly. We are stepping into EL territory here.Play the rules to your favour but hate the rule for bringing the sport into disrepute. The WC was/has been our shining glory because of the thrill and spectacle it offers (albiet with the `joker` aspect) however after tonight the stupid joker rule has ruined and marred what should be a great night for speedway fans and a chance to show the viewing sporting public what a great sport we have. However it has highlighted that Speedway has become beyond a joke (great choice of words, not) and speedway racing has become who is best at shutting off before the chequered flag to win the greatest team accolade. My sport is being ruined, and no im not happy. You cant compare to other sports with those sporting analogies because they dont have to defend the possibility of there next goal, bat counting for double. Could you say Crump was defending his right to let his team go 6 points behind? definetly Did he `race` for 4 laps? Definetly. The only sporting analogy i can suggest is a striker heading for the goal that levels the match and a (opposing) defender picks up the ball and runs off with it. That would be plain stupid right?? Well thats my point. My sympathies are with you in this awful time.

Wrong. Cheating is cheating. Id be ashamed.

Ok, they are perfectly sensible rules. The sport is miles ahead of the rest for making such ridiculous rules look fantastically entertaining, better?! I lie, of course.

Agreed. Doesnt mean the riders have to allow NOT racing to be introduced as part and parcel of the rules. The way speedway is going it will lose further credibility. The World Cup every year brings the best racing year in year out. It is something that any sports fans, or fan of team sports, can watch and enjoy and see just how great our sport is. However when you get riders shutting off before a race to throw it you cant expect anyone to take it seriously. At this moment in time im so glad the National Press dont cover the World Cup. They would have a field day with its nonesene rules. Joker (if at all) to be at least 8 -10 points at bare minimum. We all know that BSI wont drop it. They love it. But they seem happy to keep our sport as a bit of a joke. Why does it? No one ever said it would host the World Cup Final next year. I thought it would host a round at least and IF (when) GB get seeded then most likely the new stadium would host it. Well, thats what i assumed anyway.

Exactly. And since when have the Czechs been anywhere near top 4 material??

Prague to host the final? The Czechs seeded thru?? JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well im replying to your nonesense but it seems you are happy that tactical slowing down to a race is a good thing. Racing can and usually is tactical through-out a race. However slowing down should never be condoned or allowed. But of course in your world Crump is as guilty as Pedersen. No worries, i will stick with my own views and be comforted with the pages of distain for the Danes actions in heats 17 & 18.

Best team won. Cheating ruled the day. World Cup ruined. NO MORE JOKER AND NO MORE SEEDING TO THE FINAL.

Its not a contradiction. Crump was racing and wasnt close to getting near to Pedersen. Are you now gonna say that Holder wasnt racing because he couldnt get passed MJJ??? Racing (not passing) is a minimum expectations in any race. Shutting off (by Nikki) holds no excuses. I guess also Crump wasnt racing in heat 20 because he didnt pass Neils also maybe??????

Did i really just hear Nikki say `we want to win fair and square` ???? Calamity Tho the Joker rule has shown it up for being the joke it is. OUT OUT OUT OUT !!!!!

How i hate this World Cup. Im now cheering the Aussies on for victory. I would have preffered the Danes with the kids making such a presence over the Aussies with the annoying turbo twins. What a shame for Nicki - after cheating he can only now manage 3rd - oh well never mind eh.

Its made the WC a total joke. Changes for next year or yet another own goal for our great sport. How ridiculous. Of course Crump was racing!! He just wasnt going for a pass. Good on you for defending the actions of Nikki for making a mockery of the sport . You must be so proud. Total total joke of a final. Shameful.
