  1. I'm sure I saw Tai driving past my house this morning in a Transit pickup Overloaded with fridges and old bicycles shouting any old Iron seriously though most older people think people with tattoos are from the lower order of society I certainly do , Having tattoes especially in areas that cannot be covered by clothing , shows little thought for your own future . Imagine what woffindens throat will look like a few years down the line when that mess has faded and smudged as old tattoes do , and his ear lobe is touching his shoulder with a piece of drain pipe forced through it .
  2. here's an unknown . this mx/speedway event starts at 1 pm on Saturday assuming the weather is good and the large crowd expected shows up , where will all the punters park their motors ? , shopping centre in full swing so no parking there without getting clamped
  3. Not sure about anything in speedway TWK , especially with the Silly season approaching , There are known knowns; there are things we know that we know.There are known unknowns; that is to say, there are things that we now know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns – there are things we do not know we don't know.
  4. Rh not necesarily a screw up . if gt can inspire mk, le ae.jg, lb,sn and kd , it should all be ok , but if rc can win by mp in their last matches , then it could all go tu for LL , lets hope jh has some inspiration for the LL and the ts can provide a good rt for the last few matches of the season , it was good to see cc break the tr 3 times on saturday shame the tr resides with a bk rider instead of an LL rider though , the le vs mk ,mdl match was entertaining as well on sat ,well done to the ts for preparing a good rt for the kids to ride on . I gtg so I'll sign off ... jtw
  5. Get used to it , If Hemsley feeds his ego to the full and joins the Elite League , there will be at best racing every 2 weeks and more than likely if it's an 8 team Elite every 3 weeks . so think yourself lucky you had had 3 seasons with varied opposition and few gaps .
  6. Another collection on Saturday, for 3 more sets of kevlars then ?,, Should have bought a tractor , It would have lasted far longer and been of more benefit
  7. Yes it does rather show my lack of speedway knowledge i must admit , Expecting Stokes reserves, One of who regularly gets double figures and the other who has collected 6 or 7 points a few times to outscore 2 riders who fall off or break down in more races than they finish,
  8. Don't get counting any chickens just yet , This is Stoke not Coventry Storm , Stokes reserves should easily outscore Kents and a few from the top end should see them at least keep it tight
  9. I believe as the other projects floundered ,David Hemsley took them on to save the deal defaulting and having to go back to square one with with PP for speedway only . maybe Lionsden will come on here and fill us in with the facts or maybe not !!! anyway last word from me on it before the rose tinted come on with their accusations of hidden agendas and personal grievances
  10. I don't think there is a 99 year lease to sell at the moment , Lionsden who was a party of the original planning permission etc, said full planning will only be granted if certain conditions on the complex are met after 3 years , very little has changed since the gates opened apart from Mount Beaumont has got higher which I'm reasonably sure was not part of the original plan . the City Council are non too pleased with whats happened at BP according to sources from within it , so in March 2014 would anyone be that surprised to see the council who were very supportive initially do a U-turn when the planning permission comes up for it's 3 year review
  11. Were they your own toys you just chucked out of the pram or Steve Boxalls ?
  12. Just been through a medical directory , apparently "Suspected" broken Limbs can heal extremely quickly if treated with sour grapes
  13. Kent boys are certainly quick healers , one broken rib and one disclocated elbow cured in less than 24 hours , that has to be some sort of record
  14. Thomas Jorgensen instead of Ricky wells for Lions . pretty much like for like doubt it will affect the result
  15. True enough ,but if he also wants to eat and not live in a cardboard box finding the money to break the vicious circle is not all that easy , That's where riding for a good , well run club can make all the difference, Most of the struggling young riders who have left Leicester or been dropped have gone on to become far better riders with their new teams , and it doesn't take a genius to work out why .
  16. Would you also be paying the resulting service bills for his engine , clutch, tyres and chains after he had revved his engine to death on a track that is slicked out after 15 heats and a junior match ?
  17. Where is home ? it cant be much further than any of the other reserves have to travel , As you say he is "British" under 21 champion and rides in the "National" League .
  18. Assuming the Paramedic had been duly booked , why would anyone blame the Kent management ? If I book a taxi and it turns up 50 minutes late is that my fault ? the paramedic is not doing the meetings for charity he is getting paid ,so if he failed to uphold what he was contracted to do and subsequently losses were made he should be sued , the riders could sue for loss of earnings and the promotion could sue for damages .
  19. Glad you do Gustix It looks like the only one you will be getting . #nobodycanbebothered .com
  20. The unfortunate rider to make way is Sam Woods who suffered tendon damage to his shoulder in a crash at Mildenhall last Sunday, “We would like to wish Sam all the best and thank him for his efforts both on and off track especially helping promote the club. It is unfortunate that someone has to make way, it’s a numbers game and Sam will get a chance somewhere in the future. We would also like to wish Sam a speedy recovery from his shoulder injury” said Kings Team manager John Sampford. Would this be the answer your'e seeking . it is hidden in all it's glory on the front page of the Kent website , maybe I can help with a little explanation .... Sam Is not coming Back !!! for those of you who have difficulty reading the clubs website .Sam will get a chance somewhere in the future
  21. Don't you just love it when people look for the smallest of reasons to start being defensive , always shows a hidden agenda or maybe a raw nerve ,
  22. Correct !! I only give credit where it's due , and because of the crap updating on twitter with the races in the wrong order and only updated every 3 or 4 heats I couldn't hazard a guess at how many gifted points Adam has had or how many engine failures and falls he's had . so I will just assume for the moment that hes probably scored about 3 and had 7 gifts . if Adam has actually scored more than 3 it will be because of poor opposition certainly not because of any great riding ability
