Just explained the deal to the wife who said with everything else I do it's taking the Michael ordering this as well especially after changing the broadband to get BT sports. I played the obedient husband and agreed. She's just gone upstairs so I quickly booked it up. She'll never know, il watch it when she goes to work , I don't leave for a couple of hours after her. I also do all our bills etc which she's grateful for so she'll never know. It's only a little lie, il confess one day. It's not as bad as testing a new motorbike a few years ago and buying it on a whim with the holiday money which she still doesn't know about cuz I put it on a credit card which I sneakily paid off. Awaiting abuse from the female forum members. Lol

If it's true it's pathetic but unlikely if he's at Workington tonight. Would've been good to see him against us. At the start of the meeting there was a fair few watching from the stox event next door but even they got bored. Not the best of meetings tbh but 4 points I suppose

Do Riders 'manipulate' Their Averages To Get A Ride?
bruno replied to Gresham's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Do bears s@@t in the woods -
It's a difficult one, when we came back it was fantastic news but after about 4 years when we realised there's little chance of getting our own place my interest started to wane a bit but I'm glad we're still going because I've realised its NL or nothing and I'm really enjoying it again but we were gone for about 14 years. Coventry fans proberly wouldn't enjoy NL en masse but after 14 years shut might have a different view

Hope they don't announce any race winners while your watching the football

Premier Sport Swedish & Polish League
bruno replied to Trevor's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Not at all ,happy to travel and watch say Workington v's Edinburgh which means nothing to me but at least I've followed the riders over the years. Enjoy watching any riders that I've an idea about -
First visit to Plymouth and really enjoyed it, winning helps but decent meeting with a few decent passes but plenty of close racing. Seemed a good set up all round ,we got welcomed with smiles and pleasantries at the entrance and programme booth, small thing but important I think. Was tempted on the way down to stop off at Somerset instead but glad we carried on. 4 tracks to go to complete the set

Premier Sport Swedish & Polish League
bruno replied to Trevor's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I know I'm in the minority and this will sound bonkers but I prefer watching our leagues anyway, the Swedish and Polish teams mean nothing to me and neither do the riders. If they don't ride here I'm not bothered about watching them in league racing. Love the gps but that's individual so don't mind watching that -

Somerset V Wolves Friday 5th May 19;30
bruno replied to Wolfsbane's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I'm off to Plymouth Friday but if the traffics bad and we get delayed we will stop at Somerset instead, doesn't bother us whose missing but if I was a wolves fan I wouldn't bother with half the team missing -
Krsko 2017 - Round 1
bruno replied to kraftwerk's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
With Craig Cook as the wildcard -
I could be totally wrong with this it has been 40 years but I'm sure the first I knew about Kevin Holden was when I bought the star. I'm sure the covers headline said. Holden dead or Holden killed. Maybe wrong on that but remember being stunned when I went to buy it

British Semi-finals

Agree Sid , absolutely bonkers Bewley should have been in regardless. Speedway bends and breaks rules at a wim so Bewley should have been given a place -
British Semi-finals
bruno replied to Fozzie4388's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Schlein being in is bonkers but if he wins and gets the Cardiff wildcard it sinks the bspa lower than I thought possible if it was there decision to let him ride, is it me just being thick I don't get why he's in it anyway. Il Listen to any arguments for letting him ride but I just don't get why he's in it -
Proberly because I was a teenager back then and tragedies stay with you but losing Kevin, Gary Petersen and Tommy Jansson has stayed with me the past 40 years

Not a fan of Tai's mouth but no one can argue he's talent on a bike, I reckon he's main problem is he's frustrated that the bspa arnt anywhere near his professionalism . Dropplng out of the Gb squad and missing the British final are big mistakes though. Bit like Hancock they think their bigger than there nations teams. In reality though they are. Not a good excuse to pull out though

Wolves V King's Lynn 1st May 6.00 Pm
bruno replied to Beowulf's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Looking forward to watching a premier meeting followed by a nl meeting. I don't do biased so if the premier meeting is better il gladly admit it. Going on my bike because I reckon the parking should be interesting with two lots of fans -
Krsko 2017 - Round 1
bruno replied to kraftwerk's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Yeh I got a sky package, the BT deal is 34.99 for the broadband which is for fibre which is about a tenner a month cheaper than talktalk. The sport is free for 3 months then 7.50 for 9 months. It's a 12 month contract . There's proberly cheaper deals out there including free on kodi and streams but I'm happy without the messing about. Not got technical paws -
Krsko 2017 - Round 1
bruno replied to kraftwerk's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Well I've stopped poncing around and gone for it. Swopped my broadband from talktalk to BT . Got a cracking deal and already set the sky box for tonight because I'm out. Watched it last year on tube a few days after but it wasn't the same and I'm no good with streams. No idea if BT customer service are going to be any good but I got an ex speedway fan who knew he's stuff so that swung it. They can't be any worse than talktalk, getting someone who spoke English was a bonus, well cockney anyway. Lol
