  1. Doubt it . Probably in the BSPA bunker until the flak dies down.
  2. Yes!!! Ivor Brown. He was disliked by quite a few I think. I remember one end of season meeting at Monmore when Ivor was up against Ron Mountford in some match races, and old Ron left him dumped in the safety fence big time. Great days
  3. This is something I find very odd, the press obviously had the info ready for release early today. How come the sports only dedicated magazine wasn't given the same privilege?
  4. Yes, but only if they are doing something that benefits the sport. I can think of one ex world champ currently holding a position that he is obviously not suited to , and that is of no use to anyone.
  5. http://www.zlataprilba.cz/zlata-prilba-2014-se-uskutecni-3-5-10-2014/ 3rd to 5th oct.. enjoy.
  6. I "like " posts that happen to believe are appropriate to the topic. You let yourself down by getting aggressive with anyone who happens disagree with your posts, and then go on to take digs at anyone that might support that view. At the same time you regularly use the "like" button yourself. It seems to me you are incapable of taking any type of criticism, and if anyone dares to question your views you just have to use the bully type approach in an attempt to silence them. Well it will not work on me. I will continue to use the like button and comment on quotes, yours included, when appropriate.
  7. That's double standards if I've ever seen it, and no I don't follow you around. You post, others comment .That is what forums are for is it not? If you don't want to read my comments put me on ignore.
  8. The irony of it all !! We have a guy who posts in defence of someone who is being "slagged off ", and he does that by slagging someone else off.
  9. This must be getting on someone's nerves, as i see "the establishment" has decided to contribute.
  10. Indeed, I have been a dozen or more times and i still struggle with that format! A brilliant weekend just the same.
  11. And some would say "still serving them today"!
  12. the guy in the centre of the three is Bo Brhel.. I think. oops too late
  13. Hi, Hotels do get full for this weekend in Pardubice so best to book early, Hotel Labe and Zlata Stika are popular. Trains in CZ are first class and you will have no problem getting back to Prague on the Sunday evening. It is a 100k journey but the trains are inexpensive and journey times vary between 1hr and 1hr 20m depending on which type of train you catch.Taxis to the stadium are readily available about 15mins journey but they seem to charge what they please.Anything between 200-350 czk each way is possible. taxis are always outside the stadium after the meeting. There is also a very useful bus service which costs virtually nothing,they even run golden helmet specials for the day. tickets can be obtained in the kiosks at the Pardubice railway station and the buses run from just outside the station entrance. Much cheaper than taxis.Its a great weekend, but try and buy tickets online before you go as it a pain to buy them at the stadium, usually long queues and very slow service. Hope this helps.
  14. Yes the 22 is the tram to catch, just make sure you are heading in the right direction. The tram needs to be going to Bila Hora. There aren't any decent bars around the stadium to my knowledge, much better hanging around the city during the day.
  15. I think they are still trying to master the art of running men's speedway events.
  16. Or, as Mrs Brown would say ............That's nice!!
  17. the guy on the extreme right looks like John Hart.
  18. I had a similar problem with a czech site when trying to buy Golden helmet tickets. The problem was that the website didn't recognise UK post codes. Try e-mailing them and they will give you a general post code to enter and then you can get on the site to print your E-Tickets. Hope this helps.
  19. Can I just say that in the winter of discontent I too spent many months fearing for the future of my team, which has been in operation for 60+ seasons. During that period I had to sit and read all sorts of stuff posted on this forum about my club and its owners.and much of it was hard to take. It's a fact of life that topics drift off subject and this just one of many. I will never forgive the people who I feel were responsible for the way my club was treated ,as I felt there was a genuine desire by some to close us down .Mr Harkess was chairman of that bunch, and he did very little to help Coventry. Having said that, I understand your feelings and I will make no further comments on this particular topic
  20. Unless anyone tells me I am breaking forum rules I will post where, I like when I like. It's not as if this is the first thread to be sidetracked, and it won't be the last.
  21. Well one thing is for sure, and that is the fact that Ford has quite a few current promoters dangling from a piece of string
