  1. And that wont change while stock cars provide the majority of the income. They could at least though prepare it the same two weeks running so Lynn riders don't look so uncomfortable.
  2. This argument again! Elite = the best or most highly skilled. Whether you think its the most entertaining league or not, riders like Kurtz, Fricke, Kvech and Douglas (going by who was riding last night) are among the best who ride in the UK. It's a higher standard of rider than the Championship.
  3. Lynn just looked so uncomfortable on their own track tonight, no idea why its loaded with so much dirt when only one rider can get round properly. Leicester looked like the home team. Cook not interested in the slightest on the second bend of heat 14, you can understand why folk think he's taking the P when you see his scores for Leszno. Season effectively over as we ain't winning at BV, Sheffield or Leicester.
  4. Thats horrendous from Morris, glad it was awarded. Cheating whelk!
  5. I don't particularly agree with it either but I suspect its to improve the chances of home wins and keeping the crowds viable. There's certainly no chance of winning the league. As has been said the limit is too high which doesn't help those who need time to develop.
  6. There will never be anyone better from the back than Henka in his Lynn spell 1990-93 and nobody will ever convince me otherwise!
  7. Bomber isn't suddenly going to learn how to gate at 43 years old!
  8. No disrespect to Sam Hagon but him having to take four rides isn't going to help us get a positive result. EDIT just noticed its Jenkins at 2 not R/R, should really read posts properly.
  9. I'm expecting a similar score to the previous two clashes, Lynn just don't gate well enough to win away at the moment.
  10. Why should he retire? Hes more or less maintaining what has been his Prem average over the last few seasons and will have good and bad nights. You just have to accept inconsistency in older riders.
  11. From Edinburgh website: 'Monarchs Captain Paco Castagna faces a period on the sidelines as he looks to fully recover from a hand injury. Paco has been riding through the pain since his crash against Redcar back in April and following scans has now been diagnosed with thumb ligament damage. Paco will undergo treatment in a bid to return as quickly as possible. Heal up fast Paco.'
  12. Thing is you look at that scorecard and only Bomber can you criticise for his score, the other four did what you'd expect/want really. Tough job when you go down to five riders early on, just have to take the win and move on to the next one.
  13. They could have given her heat 12 when they were 14 up.
  14. Unless she had an issue then utterly ridiculous not to give Loftus her fourth ride.
  15. MPT really isn't the answer, he's not going to match R/R where Cook, Cooper & Jody can take the rides.
  16. I think generally those who don't race in the UK struggled on Friday & Saturday.
