THE DEAN MACHINE

Not fair to lay the blame but Kowalski has been the difference tonight

We wish you would 😃

Kowalski been a decent second string for Wrocław all year just not at the party tonight

Zmarzlik always seems underpowered at Wrocław

Wozniak has gone backwards this year, I think the GP has sapped his confidence

In 1998 I beat Nicki Pedersen in a stoke v Newcastle meeting but doesn’t mean I was a better rider than him

Yes I posted on the wrong topic

This goes back to what I was saying on a previous post, that when you pick a gate you automatically think have I made the right choice but when you’re left with last choice and no choice that slight doubt isn’t there, speedway is a massive psychological sport, these things matter, in the final last night Dan picks gate one despite his wins were using the dirt on the fence, so why not pick gate 3or 4 ? Because he knows unless he makes a decent start he will get blocked and so picks 1 but then thinks Freddie has also been flying off 4 so he automatically has a contrasting thought

I’m not having a go at lambert, he has had a great season but the only way someone is going to dethrone zmarzlik is to get in his head and lambert had that chance tonight

Michellsen,Doyle, kubera and madsen will be wild cards, feel a bit for kvech as not only did he qualify on merit he has put himself about this GP season and isn’t afraid to mix it

If my auntie had balls and all that

Congratulations to Lambert but had the perfect opportunity to lay down a marker tonight for next season, to give zmarzlik someone to worry about,had the momentum and on his own track and went missing

And that ladies and gentlemen is why he will be the greatest rider the sport has ever had

Prepare for some hugging and kissing

Wrong decision but I could see that decision coming when seeing the replays, pretty sure the ref thinks there was no contact (just heard that’s what the ref thought lol )

Then it would be at Workington

Zmarzlik never picks a number in first 2 heats and is usually in heat 4 ,he has picked 13 in Toruń, 13 in vojens, 15 in Latvia, 16 in Wrocław, 12 in Gorzow, 11 in Sweden, 14 in Prague, 13 in landshut, 12 in Warsaw, is this so he can observe the track in the first 2 rides, while the others are thinking about having their favourite gate twice ? Speedway is a psychological game and he obviously sees something in avoiding those first 2 races

Are they keeping thorsell and Pedersen ?

I just hope it works out financially for belle vue speedway, that’s the important bit for me

Yes but that doesn’t pay the bills, I want great racing too but I’ve been to some shockers here and abroad over the years but had a great time and cause of that I would go back the next year

Doesn’t get fans to go

And that’s exactly why Cardiff got a crowd of 40,000 before the novelty wore off, the GP needs a new Cardiff not a BV, I’ve been to belle vue a couple of times this year for league matches and as great as the racing is it’s not what I and others want from a GP

Imo putting one at belle vue is a case of thinking inside the box, this is not about the have or have nots about BV but Cardiff was something different, it was the whole fan experience and that’s what’s new is needed now, a new fan experience and you ain’t getting that at belle vue, it’s not for me

I’m under no illusion it goes on but the higher up the sport you go the harder it is to get away with it because of the checks that go on but it’s very rare for it to be the actual engine these days
