  1. Nice to know people are keeping an open mind until all the facts come out, oh hang on .......
  2. I wouldn't mind betting that To a certain extent Buster wishes he'd just let you bunch of ungrateful b@stards go under when Ged Rathbone had had enough, rather than keep the place going. If Tomalin had put his money where his mouth is last winter you could all be blaming him now., you could have " enjoyed" Chris Holder for the season aa well .Can't blame Buster for not showing up at the rally, I wouldn't have either if I'd been slagged off that much.
  3. I'd be tempted to put PuK at 2. He's used to the pressure of heat 1, would get the better gate,and should dominate heat 8.Either that or 4 for heat 14
  4. Rather have tofty than Ellis any day,Ippo are welcome to him
  5. Museilak, Tarasenko and woydlo with maybe an AndersThomson thrown in if no klindt( if that fits)would be nice
  6. Do you blame Buster for not turning up ? He's been publicly slagged off repeatedly by a " consortium member" and others who have basically whipped up a public hate campaign against him, turning everything negative that has happened into busters fault. The term " witch hunt" springs to mind.I wouldn't have gone either if it was me
  7. Word on the terraces was that he had asked for an extra £20 a point, lynn said no , Leicester said yes
  8. Don't know, I was there but wasn't near the pits or medical staff,I was merely answering another question with the information available to me
  9. He was withdrawn with an injury so was unable to take his 3rd ride,if however he had taken his 3rd ride he would have scored 1 point as Robert Lambert had engine failure in that race
  10. If Robert hadn't had 2 engine failures late on, ippo would have lost tonight
  11. I think that's right. Kings lynn could have used morris at kings lynn due to the 5pc uplift for home riders but it was decided to keep the same riders home and away to maintain integrity .Ellis had a mare for lynn and we lost
  12. Shme but no surprise, with 2 out injured and possibly tofty too.
  13. Not keen on him after he guested for lynn in the play off final, sulked cos he couldn't ride for Poole, got excluded twice and was rubbish( something like that) Gating tart,roller etc
  14. True, I forgot about him .hope he doesn't turn out to be another in the mould of kasper andersson
  15. Unfortunately, the spoon was almost definitely coming to lynn when they lost at home to Peterborough. Hopefully this years team sheet will be ripped up, burnt, and buried at sea.If we have to suffer another season of " premiership " speedway , the only riders worthy of a place in my opinion are Klindt and Rowe. I'm off to get my tin hat and await the flak
  16. Belle vue is the national speedway stadium ,and the best track in the country ,so the final is probably in the right place Sadly the sport has evolved in such a way that lightweight riders benefit more, unlike" back in the day" when riders built like briggo were world champions , there's not much we can do about that. If the British final could be run on a Saturday night so more fans could travel I'm sure it would be better attended . As for u21 winner,I think the reward should be a place in the British final, with a total of maybe 8 seeded and the rest from semi finals,to give more riders a chance of pulling off a shock
  17. I think you are right, and the crowd levels at the semis and race off would suggest the same
  18. I think that " back in the day " the no1's only met once, in heat one, and apart from 1and 3 or 2 and 4 there was no restriction on gate position, so nearly always picked the best gate .This made quite a difference to averages too
  19. Course he is.Polish extraliga rider on a 5 average, same as Fred was , but Fred didn't work out,but that's not the point. Emil Breum has been signed as an asset to replace Kye Thomson who through no fault of his own is struggling in the main body of the team averaging 3ish and comes with a loan fee!
  20. Shame your rich but apparently tight fisted sponsor didn't see fit to pay out for a no1 then isnt it. Laguta was brought in by Alex Brady before he left.You got a 5pt Tarasenko( basically a ringer but that happens everywhere) , yours worked out, fred Ericsson didn't,and now lynn have signed a youngster with a view to the future.
  21. Do riders not get start money and points money anymore?
