  1. I wouldn't be so sure about that. They might understand the reasons but are you sure they won't bear a grudge? Greg Hancock never forgave Colin Pratt for dropping him from the Coventry team when he had to choose between him and Billy Hamill.
  2. Really brought it home to me when I received a Facebook email yesterday reminding me that it was Shazzy's birthday soon.
  3. It's as if everyone has had to sign the official secrets act as to who exactly is in charge of track preparation on Sky nights. No-one seems to know which scenario is actually correct and no-one is willing to say anything. Even tsc1 has been going around deleting his posts.
  4. Can I join this club please? Given the choice between dragging 10 children along and giving them an air horn each or 10 dogs, I'd choose dogs every time and I'm pretty sure I could get them all to sit and stay still all evening.
  5. We used to stay every year Friday to Sunday at a very nice hotel in Cardiff who allowed us to leave Jemma in the room for the evening. Lots of walking in Sophia Gardens on GP day, playing with a ball on The Castle grass - she was ready for a sleep when we got back to the hotel. Sunday was spent at Porthcawl before driving home. Happy memories.
  6. .....And splashing him cheekily into the bargain. (or something like that.)
  7. Which one? He quoted Barrow Boy's post but doesn't seem to have replied to it.
  8. Seems to be contradicting opinions here. I very much doubt if Glyn will comment but I have an idea tsc1 might know exactly what he's talking about.
  9. Speedway promoters take note. You know things are getting bad when fans like Beowulf are starting to lose interest.
  10. Hope it's not Swindon again as they're back for Leicester's next home meeting in 12 days time. Who on earth sorts out the fixture list? Surely it is possible to plan things so as not have the same team in opposition 2 weeks running?
  11. You'll be okay as long as a stray Rocket doesn't head your way after re-bounding on the roof.
  12. Shame you weren't at last week's Coventry v Belle Vue match as that really was a genuinely great speedway meeting so well done to both sets of riders 'cos it takes two teams to make a good meeting. Swindon are obviously either poor at the moment or reducing averages. I suppose we'll find out soon which it is. I'm wondering if this was the one whose owner was asking in the General Discussions area if dogs are allowed at Leicester? They posted afterwards that they were sitting in the sunshine at the track. I think if visiting fans turn up with a dog they probably allow it in so perhaps if I wear my Coventry Bees scarf they'll let Lucy in. What do you reckon my chances are? Seriously though if I could have her with me now Ray doesn't attend anymore I'd be there every week.
  13. Yes July 12th was one of the dates the Panthers were given and the landlords must have known 'Just Dogs Live' was on the same date as long as I have, which is almost 12 months. Can't see what the problem is with a 5pm start time for the speedway as I should think the dog show would be over by then and I can't remember them using any area near the track before anyway.
  14. Not odd really but best not to say anything about the track as some of the fans get a bit uptight. What I want to know is was there a sun break? If not why not because there is every other time the sun shines and it was certainly shining brightly today.
  15. lol. Correct result just not necessarily in the right order.
  16. Well sod me!! I asked ages ago if this meeting would go ahead because 'Just Dogs Live' was on that weekend and was told yes it would so we decided to kill two birds with one stone and go to both on the Sunday rather than making 2 trips to Peterborough. Bah!!
  17. Wolves 50 - Coventry 40......or thereabouts. I like being pessimistic.
  18. lol. I was just going to quote and reply to Incognito's post saying Stevebrum would explode if Kasprzak was signed. I needn't bother now as he's already replied.
  19. Stay to watch the fireworks ~ they're usually pretty good too.
  20. Sleep in peace Shazzy. I remember you scaring this person somewhat back in 2003. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150149821492785&set=a.10150148628652785.325833.550797784&type=3&theater
  21. Yes, we just needed a quick shelter under the hedge for a couple of minutes and it was all over thank goodness. Amazing sky beforehand though.
  22. She is asking if the person stayed after the meeting and listened to what Scott and Jason talked about as they sorted things out over a cup of tea. Simple.
