  1. I've been thinking similar this season, the 'production crew' seems to have trebled but the actual product feels like its been significantly diluted. Perhaps they weren't as visible in the past or were better at going unnoticed but there seems to be someone stood around doing nothing with a WBD shirt on in every shot.
  2. Surely Lightcap is the better option, especially long term. I like Gino but he's more accident prone than Kerr
  3. All of the changes so far have just felt like cost cutting. they won’t change the reserves at this stage and the Riss connections have been heavily discussed so it’s only really wright or Harris that would go and unless it’s Zmarzlik/Vaculik coming in there isn’t any point to those
  4. He came back way too quick from those bad breaks. As much stick Plymouth get for Kennett gate they've not had much luck with all the no1's they've signed recently have getting pretty badly hurt . Unless R Worrall makes a comeback I can't see him being replaced.
  5. As probably anticipated, Covatti out for the season.
  6. Didn’t expect him to do it but KIillen would have been the first call I would have made in Lemons place. Don’t ask don’t get and all that! Mulford makes sense as he’s the perfect replacement for Bailey
  7. I read it more like Lynn will close and the licence would be transferred to Swaffham.
  8. Surely Killen would be top of the RS list to guest at Oxford?
  9. St Davids is in the centre, about 5 mins walk from the stadium, The Fan Zone is about 7-10 mins. £11.70 up to 10 hours. Dumfries place is about 10-15 from both - possibly the one you mentioned. Both fill up quote quickly on the weekends. Last year was chaos as there was an event in the arena opposite St David's but it looks like the GP is the only thing on in Cardiff that Saturday. There are a few around town but St David's is the safest and largest. Park and ride used to be on the A48 but I think its since been closed down from lack of funding.
  10. @Islander15 could I make an injury replacement? Vale for Cairns
  11. Killen looked good but surely they'd go with Mulford before Sheffield give him a run out for one of their reserves. Voulas and Mulford for Tate and Connor?
  12. Always covered over with advertising and the track is built up so high you would barely see the tops of helmets going past. We sat in the front row (closest available to the track) going into the third bend for the first one and barely saw a thing. Top tier is the best at the Millennium, lets you see so much more.
  13. Finally finished last nights meeting. Great end to a great week of racing. Lambert the best rider on show all week, the Latvians impressed as did the Germans. Huckenbeck has to be near the top of Lemons shopping list next year. Less said about the Danes the better. Nice to see Zmarzlik show he can’t get going when it’s against him. That tapes exclusion rattled him more than the crash I think. Personally thought Kurtz was the right choice but putting him off 4 after GB were so good of 1/3 in the semi, sums Lemons management up for me.
  14. If they can lay the same track here as they did for Warsaw, £20 will be a bargain. They’ve got more floor space at the principality so it shouldn’t be a problem to replicate size and shape. Big ask though!
  15. Thanks RnR suspected that was the case but good to confirm. Wouldn't be surprised to see Dudek coming in for Magic for the final. edit - now not surprised as announced as I was posting!
  16. Enjoyed last night a lot more than Tuesday, even with two run away sides it was a great meeting overall. I probably would have enjoyed it more being there as I'd have actually seen all of the overtakes/close calls etc but unfortunately that's what we've come to expect from Discovery/Eurosport on the watching front! Pollestad looks a great talent and the Latvian, while not beating anyone of real note, looked very handy - could he replace Tate Z? Not sure why USA went with Nicol/Manzieres and not Lightcap for the experience. Can teams make changes before the final?
  17. Doesn't smith have the higher ave as well? Surely he would be the one to let go considering the trust they've shown in Pijper so far
  18. Hopefully. Would like to think Phil has enough experience of UK weather to have at least brought some with him in case it takes a turn for the worse.
  19. Doesn't look like they've had covers down from various social media posts from there.
  20. Double change Ivacic and Garrod for Pijper and Starke.
  21. Glad it’s hammering down. If any club should be afforded some leeway its Workington. First year in the second league, had their star rider injured in horrific circumstances earlier this week and clearly the place to be for up and coming youngsters. were they not also running speedway/sport evenings in the gazebo before they were burgled by the lovely caravan folk. this forum is mental, club does all the right things and gets hammered for rightly calling a meeting that probably would have cost them thousands, early, and everyone’s ready to stick the knife in.
  22. Amazing, like BBC putting the Euros final on the red button and having a re-run of Mrs Browns Boys on instead.
  23. What happened to Matt Gilmore, he was touted as the next Ward for years. Outscored a few in the u21 World cup for a few years but I haven't seen his name in a while.
  24. Leszno have reported several broken ribs and vertebrae.
