THE DEAN MACHINE

It is on BSN tonight

It is on BSN

Then by that he won’t be riding for leszno away at Łódź next Saturday?

I didn’t actually mind Darcy, in the few times I came into contact with him he was always courteous but I am fully aware of his off track shenanigans

But he didn’t and that was never going to change because that’s the person he was

When your dad is in the CIA they never take their eye of you, terrorist attacks don’t happen without being facilitated

Darcy was around a few years and did grow up abit towards the end of his career but fact is this Darcy as great and natural talent as he was he didnt have the discipline to be a great, Darcy was a modern day Kelly Moran

And we could all step out the house tomorrow and get run over by a bus but statistically that ain’t going to happen just like the chance of you getting blown up by a bomber ain’t going to happen, you can’t live life on what if

The iow are having their own struggles with the ferry company putting the prices up for crossings making it unsustainable for the speedway, however Barry and Martin have forged a plan through sponsorship and will be running 7 meetings this year and I believe they will be running under Nora ,On the subject of Nora the SCB have in their short sighted way pit blocks in the way to use Nora, I was talking to a current promoter a few weeks back about running an upright meeting and he told me they can’t use Nora while under ACU/SCB,even the FGA grasstrack wanted to use Nora and the ACU had to fight to keep it, I’m sure all organisations have their bad points but the ACU SCB seem to specialise in theirs

Pickering picked up a shoulder injury in Poland today, he finished the meeting but has gone to hospital after meeting

Not saying this is how it is in zmarzlik’s camp but at the first GP he has 15 threats to his crown by the 3rd GP he is down to 8 and after last night he down to 3, after Gorzow it could be down to just Kurtz, so mentally is this how he plans his strategy? By eliminating the threats, less to worry about more freedom in his racing, every GP just needs to finish ahead of Kurtz and unless Kurtz starts beating him then it’s just another no pressure meeting because although he always looks serious he never looks under pressure and why would he because if say vaculik or bewley wins a GP so what it ain’t going to cause a ripple on his quest to glory, I say this because any rider will tell you, if you are thinking about others you will not ride to your full potential and I believe this is why laguta beat him because he couldn’t eliminate laguta as a threat

When you are serious about being world champion there is no having meetings like bewley last night, track conditions are irrelevant

What happened to bewley last night, he looked like he had just switched off, didnt even seem to want to get involved racing for points, completely different rider from Friday night, lambert rode like a desperate amatuer all weekend and dropped more points than he earned because of it, fricke rode well but whoever is advising him on his gate picks needs eliminating from his team, lindgren I think has resigned to the fact that he is the new Lee adams, best rider never to be world champion, holder despite looking fast at times never really looked like a threat, Kurtz is there at top of his game and his time will come I’m sure just not yet and zmarzlik won the meeting in his last qualifying race when knew he didn’t need to get points so used race to try a set up out for the outside gates and had no hesitation picking gate 4 in final and the rest of the field with no disrespect just seem to be making up the numbers, all capable of putting in a couple of good rides but were never going to be in the mix at the end

Sounds like good accounting if you know what I mean 😉

Laguta would be top 6 at best, same as sayfutinow but they should still be there

In the grand scheme of things, for our premier event that embarrassing, Bydgoszcz will get more than that in their 2nd division match against tarnow this afternoon

I went to a Katie Hopkins stand up show last month, not really a fan but it was very funny and very offensive but on the way in we were searched and there was an old guy infront of me well into his 70s who when searched had a large flick knife, when the security asked him about it he just said in a matter of fact way well you never know what nutters are out there, anyway they took it off him much to his displeasure

One of those people is my disabled son who was right next to the flares last night and he loves it

Don’t know if you noticed but the poles are not usually trying to blow us up, flares are banned but 30 FT away from supporters there are flame throwers shooting flames up in the air, it’s just health and safety crap spoiling people’s enjoyment, some pole brought one to the Birmingham v Ipswich match at Perry Barr, it livened up the meeting seeing the staff having a meltdown, life is too short, might take some myself when I’m next at belle vue

Phil morris loosing his s**t at the poles for bringing flares 😂

Freddie seems to have hit a vein of consistency in the GPs but unfortunately it’s below zmarzlik’s level of consistency, zmarzlik has put all the pressure on Kurtz, if Kurtz handles that pressure he has a chance but zmarzlik knows one slip up from Kurtz and zmarzlik will sail off in the distance and not just luck that’s planned, he has put Kurtz right where he wants him, will Kurtz buckle ?

He does crash occasionally, he had one last week in Toruń although it was more of a roll over than a crash

Had I been without the Mrs or the lad I could of stopped for free in the center, one of my customers owns a few nightclubs and bars in Cardiff so could of stopped there upstairs, it certainly helped with parking anyway

Which is another track where zmarzlik struggles if that’s the right word ? The next round is Gorzow where lately it has become a proper gate and go place and even the home riders struggle to pass but not the main man he loves it

Never understood this, in the times we stayed there, we had rooms in the youth hostel in the center for £10 of which some riders kipped on the floor in our rooms,we stopped in a premier inn around 15 mins in the valleys for £50 a room and one year we took the camper and stayed in Cardiff bay for £40 and lots of other did too, we got a taxi to the center which we shared with other fans so was about £5 each, think it was just lazyness of some folk to do some planning
