THE DEAN MACHINE

The air fence problem has never been a problem with the fence itself, it’s what is behind the air fence

Not sure who really does a good injury policy these days, back in the day CICA was by far the best and was used by just about every major sport but about 20 years ago they stopped taking on new customers but they continued with existing customers, I’ve still got mine, I first took it out in 1994 and still have it today, I can remember the reps coming round to the meetings trying to sell the policy’s, I’m sure there are company’s that specialise in sports injury but not sure what the benifits are like especially with speedway being a high risk for injury but I remember the insurance provided by the SCB being really poor in comparison to the CICA, something else which I always thought was the Ben fund was just for serious injury not your average leg or arm break, for all the injuries i had I never claimed off the Ben fund because I didn’t know you could, I was alway suspicious of a certain rider who always seem to get a back injury in the last couple of meetings of the season, a nothing crash but enough to get him on the insurance pay roll if you know what I mean, I did hear that the CICA were investigating but never heard any comeback

Neither of those points are true, air fences have a use by date and bikes are no faster than 40 years ago

I see the Zeilona gora fans lit pyro and generally created a great atmosphere last night at Wrocław but as usual the short sighted authority’s will ban them from future matches, who suffers from the ban ? Every team should be encouraged to take pyro, drums, whatever and make an absolute racket

I think Woryna is a great addition to the GPs, he won’t challenge the top 8 as he is too erratic and inconsistent but he isn’t afraid to mix it with anyone including zmarzlik

I’ve sat next to the owner of Zeilona gora (person interviewed then )and his wife at his house for Sunday afternoon tea,sureal moment

Looks like the polish sausages are in full swing

Not just for the speedway either

You expect more from kubera, pawlicki and lebedevs no matter what the conditions

I see musielak is the new rider for mercury market pl in the adverts

Falubaz just not a the races tonight

Gate and go tonight

Most poles and me too have canal anyway so watching on that

Fantastic atmosphere in Wrocław as usual from a huge crowd

Falubaz look a decent team even without madsen

Częstochowa are a very poor team, they have some triers but no leader to bang in some points

Nothing wrong with Godfrey and Chapman running their own teams, it’s running the sport where the problems start

Or it could be that Ben barker isn’t the only one not happy about this situation and a couple of those Ipswich riders happen to be in the same championship team as barker but whatever it is Ipswich have taken a positive step to resolve it

Wouldn’t worry about it,when you trigger the clique they have a habit of petty responses

Was just thinking today that British speedway has made an awful lot of mistakes over the last few decades and pretty much by a stroke of luck or tolerance got away with them to a large extent but right now it feels like all those bad mistakes are biting the sport on the arse, chickens coming home to roost and all that

Not in your wallet though is it mate? it’s in some software somewhere that you have no control over

Really hope that doesn’t bite you in the ass one day

Haven't we all

Just because you don’t agree doesn’t make it wrong, what exactly has he won ? With 2 teams ? Nick Morris example of his mates, if you like to post your examples

Brought the Leicester stream, some top notch camera work if you like watching the race leader, not so much if you want to see any action between 2nd 3rd or 4th
