Really?, i don't think so.

Well he's looking for a team place -Here

Well done Birmingham!, well deserved victory and glad to see them get some silverware this season . Very very proud of our lads today, lost our number one but still managed to get into the final brilliant effort!

Or adding more fixtures could do more harm than good, we've already got way too many meetings going on without adding even more.

Well done Pepe , seems his form has really improved over the past couple of week.

Seems nobody has a clue, well other than yourself

Absolutley brilliant , cannot say how proud i am of they lads tonight. Hope you enjoy Cardiff Ricky!, you deserve it!!.

You could ring the ticket office - 0871 230 7155 , but i don't think it's a good idea taking a 2year old to a grand prix .

But a young Brit could have replaced Mason...

Very much doubt it, as there have been complications with Tyson getting a working permit.

Whatever you say Malcom, all i was saying that there was a good reason to why they didn't sign for scunthorpe in the first place!!!, but no i clearly have no idea, thanks for being so respectful.

Fact is Malcom, i've been told in confidence why, and frankly i don't want to abuse that system. Just wanted people to stop saying that the Scunthorpe riders we're poached away from the club.

:rolleyes:, he was never "poached" away from Scunthorpe, there was a perfectly good reason why most of the youngster in the Scunthorpe team moved on.

Was in the second half at Sheffield last night, looked really fast!

But how can you expect him to up his performance, when he is getting sacked by his club. If the Heathens we're not willing to give James the time he needed, to develop into a better rider and get vital track time, then they shouldn't have in the first place, they should have let another club take him on board that would have given him this.

Wow, i am really surprised with some of the Heathens fans response to this. Some of you forget, James is only sixteen and in his second season of speedway, he needs to be given time to build up his confidence and riding ability, but the promotion have obviously not took note of this and sacked a young rider at a time. Who know what will happen with James, but i really hope he carries on. And the excuse of blaming the rules?, get off it!!!, the BSPA didn't force you to make the change, it was your own promotions decision.

I think the national league should limit the number of foreign riders in the national league, but the number in isn't massive tbh, only about seven, so there are still plenty of Brits around in that league. Yes there are far too many young Aussies coming over here, but what do you expect promoters to do when they see the likes of Ward,Sedgmen and Skidmore come over here and make a huge impact, every team is looking for the next Ward, who'll come on a 5 point average and end on a 10. Fact is the Aussies have got their tactics spot on, some of the youngsters get equipment from the likes of Crump and Andersen, should we be moaning about this?, no, we should figure out a way to do this for our own young riders, because it has clearly worked and we can't really blame the Aussies for doing this, it's using it to their own advantage and is clearly working. But we also shouldn't be under the impression that all these riders come on top notch machinery, the likes of Branford have come here with basically nothing at all, and has shown great potential in the national league. However, the solution is very simple, we should do as the Poles do by having each Premier league number 7 a young British rider. This will give the young a chance to experience the premier league and have a proper chance to develop their skills as a rider in that league. In my opinion that's the only way possible that we could build up the skills of the young Brits, who haven't particularly had the chance to show their true potential in the Premier league

I think it more to the fact that a young brit has lost his position at a club, to a rider who is virtually unknown over here. I do hope Micky the best, but it was highly unfair that James got sacked at Dudley, when he has so much potential at a young age. Lets just hope this hasn't knocked his confidence and can end on a high note.

What a load of crap!, another young British rider makes way for an unknown Aussie. Lets hope James gets fixed up with another club very soon. And trying to blame the rules for sacking James, really?, Dudley have made a huge mistake in my books.

had a crash with howarth, seemed to be ok so it must have been a mechanical problem

Why be so arrogant and near minded to only congratulate the other 3. whether you like it or not Ricky is the 2009 PLRC .

I may have been a bit harsh, but its very frustrating when you get home from a meeting and you already get people moaning about home track advantage when Ricky put in a fantastic performance. And also how can away fans feel ripped off they saw a fantastic meeting with brilliant atmosphere.

Exactly!, to be honest i don't know how people like bellers or diamond rock can comment on this, they weren't even there .

Went home with a jackpot of £25.

Well done Ricky so very happy he won!!!. but no matter how much we like it theres always going to be somebody with some track advantage or home track advantage
