Definitely not Craig being naked. I've watched enough 'Naked Attraction' programmes on TV to confirm there is nothing attractive about the male body and they all look better with clothes on. No serious research either as I can remember it happening and just a quick google brings the link up. (I've been taking lessons from gustix.)

One win, 3rd place and two lasts. I didn't say he was any good, just that he managed to keep still at the gate in all of his races and didn't get any warnings or start off 15 mtrs.

Hard to know if you're joking or not as I'm a bit thick but I think he was just saying that last year it was the first week of November so that's when it will probably be this year.

The difference being......hopefully .........that you weren't drink driving like Craig was. Worse possible scenario to bump into the rear of a Police Car, that's just asking for trouble.

Can't say I have because it wouldn't be a pretty sight even when I was his age. 😀

Thanks. It was good to see those races again......also the one that followed 'Chris Harris ~ Man of Steel.'

He managed to do it okay at Leicester on Monday ~ not one call back.

Old news I know but it seems he's had a few issues in the past too. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/cumbria/6907327.stm

Luckily I hadn't read sharpandroids post before I went. BP was fine thank you but probably high now. Miserable sod. You might not think it was relevant but I was following on from the post by ch958, you know the one about doctor's appointments. Lots of threads go off topic. If you want to be a mod and decide what's relevant or not apply to Phil.

True. I keep away from doctors whenever possible and have managed to avoid any physio by keeping a low profile. I did need a 12 month review for my blood pressure medication though and have had to wait 5 weeks for an appointment. Going this afternoon so must keep relaxed and not read any irritating posts on here.

Think there might be a few refusals to ride from today's top riders. Too much like hard work coming from 15 metres back.

I don't think we can judge the response on that because surely it will be binned next year anyway......hopefully. Perhaps I am mistaken then because I haven't seen the match on BT and as the stands were unavailable more people were around the terraces than normal making me think it was a good attendance. If you are correct and it was a poor crowd it wouldn't be that surprising with the City playing, the match on TV, horrible weather, outcome a foregone conclusion and riding on a Monday rather than the usual Saturday. Must admit I enjoyed the Peterborough v Glasgow match much more.

Don't know about the Sheffield leg because I wasn't there and haven't got BT Sport, but I agree about the racing last night which was pretty boring and not how it usually is. Perhaps there is something to be said for staying in the Premier League afterall.

Don't bother doing the lottery this week as your prediction was way out about a sparse/low crowd because it looked pretty good to me. A lot of tracks would be happy to get an attendance like that, especially for a pretty unimportant fixture as the result was never in doubt and having to brave horrible weather. I don't know about being anywhere near the stands but I was also worried about the lights which were rocking around in the high wind.

I'd say Leicester's are down but still pretty good attendances compared to other tracks. It's going to take a while to entice back the fans who gave up during the years of processional racing and the antics of David Hemsley didn't exactly help matters.

They've probably already been sold on EBay. In fact the 2010 trophy fetched a brilliant price as my source has told me Matt bought that one as he was determined to get his hands on it somehow.

According to someone on Facebook Mick Horton has put all the Coventry assets up for sale. That little snippet might have come from the meeting.

Are the Tigers having two goes on their own track then?

Come on Sheffield! Nice big lead to take to Leicester please so we lose and drop down. Thanks very much.

The 'like' was for the post not this bit because you're not.

I think it was pretty obvious we'd never see him again after his accident. I don't think he'll be in the team list next season. Oh good!

I think he's being sarcastic. When Garrity rode at Leicester last time he went from 15 metres in three of his races so would be a good rider to guest if you want to lose the match. I live in hope that this will happen while I'm still capable of getting to Beaumont Park as I much prefer Championship racing, but I doubt it will happen.

Don't insult my Robin. I take some food for her every day on the Gt. Central Way path when walking our dogs and she is now very tame. She is definitely sooooo sweet but her name is Reliant.

Yes.......THIS is a proper Robin. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156617429352785&set=a.10150784554067785.494859.550797784&type=3&theater That's what happens as you age the memory goes and SCB is getting on a bit now bless him.

I'm looking forward to it too because looking on the bright side it's surely got to be better than how I spent October 11th last year after breaking my hip in Snowdonia.
