  1. Most people can see past their opinions of a rider and know that what the SCB have done here is ridiculous. Let's be honest, he's only signed documents because he wants to ride his bike. No different to signing a work contract because you want that job. Same as signing a mobile phone contract, because you want that phone. T's & C's don't cross the majority of people's minds when they really want it.
  2. It made me laugh, the PG Tips monkey was brilliantly funny
  3. Said British Speedway is run by a bunch of monkeys. Facts hurt so they've given him a £150 fine
  4. One thing I'd try is add more dirt / rip it up more. Our at least rip up the outside, if a rider goes out wide they seem to go backwards. The only part of the track that's anything like the old grippy days is the starts.
  5. The tweet that got my back up the most was he replied to some with "I don't care less what fans think, once I have a big a$$ house, bad a$$ car and a beautiful family you'll all be forgotten."
  6. Back to 'us' though. Can we make a team change (not that I would personally) or do we have to go with the rider's we had last night?
  7. I'm a big Woffinden fan but I have to say very disappointingly, he made himself look a complete arrogant d!k on Twitter last night. GB put in a terrific performance but he enjoyed making last night all about him. With that arrogance, I'd be happy for him to be kept away from the GB team. To be in the team it has to be about us as a collective and not about "me". As a fan of his, I'm gutted by his attitude
  8. If we get last night's Holder and Batchelor and last night's super trapping Lambert we can make a fight of this league campaign. We've got the same issues as previous seasons in that the rider's don't seem to click all at the same time. That's what's working for Wolves and Belle Vue at the moment, their top 5 are on it. Man for man though, there's not much in it between them and us, we're waiting for the click
  9. As for last night, the racing wasn't great but that really didn't matter to us in the crowd. It's strange that once there's a proper atmosphere around, when the team perform like that the racing is secondary. Had it been a league meeting everyone would of moaned, especially me. Feel for the TV viewers but last night was absolutely bloody brilliantly awesome.
  10. Doyle is the top Aussie now, he's absolutely dedicated to British Speedway
  11. Should imagine it's Kurtz moving up and Jack Holder as U21 reserve?
  12. I suppose 50p is alright for 15 seconds of action
  13. His injury was nothing to do with how that crash panned out. A typical first bend incident with a s#!+ outcome
  14. Think the Poles backed it due to it being a Polish promotion behind it but after a few seasons and the top top riders giving it a wide birth the fans are doing the same
  15. I think if all teams were equal I still wouldn't expect much entertainment I'm hoping GB put the gloves on and give the whinging Aussies a bashing
  16. The racing is still ok but I'm not enjoying it after the Klindt crash
  17. Yep, some good racing but these riders really ain't anywhere near the caliber of the SGP boys are they
  18. Surprised by Perks release, he hasn't done much wrong has he?!?!?
  19. Would you take Ellis Perks for Gappmaier as he's just been released from Rye House?!?
  20. Correct, GB all the way. It's the World Cup, back your Country not your club riders
  21. Maybe with regards to Fricke's priority It may just be that his equipment abroad has to be up there with the best of the best to be competitive and keep his place. In the UK, he may be just bolting together some crap found in the back of the shed to remain competitive. Abroad, you have to be a good gater and fast. With most UK tracks you just need to be a good gater.
  22. Agree Just because you don't like someone, as a manager you should be strong enough to put that to one side and pick the best available. It's the same with everything in life. If Woffinden says he's available then he has to be in.
