Cook has it in the bag and deserves the British title but I have to say, I'd rather of watched Lambert at Cardiff -

Thinking ahead already to the World Cup. I can't help but think TeamGB will get eaten alive around this place -

Hanock's Monster Diarrhoea
Daniel Smith replied to TheReturn's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
It would only be uncomfortable if anything was to happen that would suggest such a thing. Currently there isn't. The last GP a Redbull sponsored rider won it, the biggest energy drink rival. The GP series are desperately trying to get Emil back in the series, a Redbull rival. There's been no suggestion that referee decisions favour Monster riders either -
Hanock's Monster Diarrhoea
Daniel Smith replied to TheReturn's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
You have issues clearly. It's the Monster FIM Speedway Grand Prix series for goodness sake. Can't be a breach when his own sponsor are the sponsors of the series -
If the EL survives the end of this season then I think there won't be just 1 fixed night. It'll be 2 (Monday & Thursday) with a maximum of 2 meetings per week per club i.e. 1 home 1 away. They'll continue with the 2 home & away fixtures verses each team Personally though I believe the Elite League will crash & burn with 3 clubs at risk

"more passing than you see in a match at Poole" was a silly comment considering there isn't an actual pass in the whole race itself. Garrity & Lambert get side by side once in turn 3&4, that's it. No passing, just close racing

Funny you should mention them, they are the owners of Monster -
Hanock's Monster Diarrhoea
Daniel Smith replied to TheReturn's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I did. Started buying it from my local shop daily through Speedway advertising i.e. Greg Hancock originally. Same before that with Redbull. Originally bought that because of F1. Actually, I'd say everything I've had is via advertising. Even women -
Should Ex Riders Get Into Speedway Free?
Daniel Smith replied to Grachan's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
The BSPA could fill their boots. Looking at the regulations it seems that only riders & officials have to have a licence. IMO all pit crews should also be licensed to work in & around any pit area. This way would be an ideal in how to govern who pays and who doesn't in terms of hangers on. No end of WAGS rock up FOC too, if the riders require them to be with them then they'd have to apply for the pit crew licence. £50 would be a reasonable figure & the finances gain from this could be put into youth development. In terms of ex-riders, why don't clubs just post a season ticket off to these ex-riders they're happy to have in and around the club. And/or pay £150 per season for a BSPA season ticket which allows access to all UK tracks. Again, finances that can be pushed into youth development. Just ideas -

Should Tai Woffinden Ride For Team Gb ?
Daniel Smith replied to robert72's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Some national events are part of a rider receiving his national licence yearly. Denmark and Poland are the 2 that spring to mind. If they do not ride their licences could be revoked. Not sure if Sweden is the same? Australia and the UK doesn't make it mandatory. The Aussies have riders missing it regularly, the UK has had riders missing it occasionally through it's history. It's always been that way and only the ACU / BSPA can change that. Regarding the England shirt, another situation where Woffinden was in a no win position. His Tweet was spot on and proved accurate. Wasps are being chewed vigorously by some -
With you, nothing to shout about

Future Of British Speedway?
Daniel Smith replied to Christopher Bcmma Cook's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
He did say "top names". Those highlighted imo certainly don't come under that bracket -
F1 are running more efficient and environmentally friendly than ever this season. Smaller engines 1.6ltr v6's and running ERS (Energy Recovery System). Not only is 160hp generated from the hybrid motor, today's cars also run a dyno system to recharge the battery when drivers decelerate. What does that mean? On the electric side of things F1 are still miles ahead of Formula E in advanced technology

Daniel Smith replied to Christopher Bcmma Cook's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The system imo is nowhere near finished in serving it's purpose. Not unless we're happy having just Steve Worrall and Jason Garrity as progress for the next 10 years. EDR's should remain but the rider's in those positions should have a life span. No over 25's or 3 seasons as an EDR. Simply remove the 2 protected heats. -

Also what I haven't seen mentioned, I thought this forum was originally marketed with Chapman in attendance? Or have I imagined that? If it was, what happened there I wonder? -
