  1. Well it seems Argentina is out of the calendar for this year.Can't say i am surprised and you can see my comments from last year to back that up.Add to that the fatal accident...... http://www.holsted-speedway.dk/nyheder/u21+vm+serien+skrumper+ind_234/
  2. Surely Glasgow have more than a bottle of vodka as an asset?Oh,maybe not.......
  3. I wonder if the NZ GP will be the only one shown live,as 3 in the morning is the normal slot time for speedway on Eurosport
  4. Agree with BWitcher.Can't undestand people who dismiss it out of hand before even seeing it.A fiver 4 times a year isn't going to bankrupt anyone.And i would wait until i have flicked through it before saying i wouldn't buy it.
  5. Last weekend saw the public launch(at least in Germany)of the partnership between Zielona Gora and the newly named Berlin Falubaz Wolfslake in Berlin Wilmersdorf http://falubaz.com/pl/Galeria/Inne/Sezon-2013/Ice-Challenge-2013-Wilmersdorf-Berlin Today the partnership went a stage further and some officials and riders came to Wolfslake to dust off the cobwebs.Pepe and Hampel were there.Couple of big meetings planned.One in May with Hampel and Jonsson amongst others and i think a meeting between the two teams is also planned
  6. Spotlight on one of the Monster babes would do me..........
  7. Personally Phil i didn't have a problem with Sky's coverage of the GPs.I thought apart from one or two of the commentators it was pretty good.The problem for me came with the boring draw for the semis and final and there Sky were just showing what BSI/IMG were putting on as entertainment.Ok,they could have just missed that,had a chat and then gave us the results,but imo it was crap.Glad they have got shot of it. Add to that the fact they had to try and make some boring GPs entertaining.You will admit BSI/IMG and not Sky were responsible for some of the dreadful tracks we have witnessed?
  8. I don't have to wait.I tell it like i see it straight away.Try and make a decent contribution to the forum once in a while.I think you will see that i was one of the forum members who didn't think the Euro League would work right from the start.Didn't have to wait for it to fail before putting my opinion on here.It does however seem a bit ironic that after all the stick "the know" has been getting for saying amongst other things he thinks the GPs have gone stale that now Phil mentions Sky coverage had gone stale.Maybe it isn't all to do with the coverage,but actually "the know" is right.But you wouldn't expect Phil to say BSI/IMG have run out of ideas.Easier to blame a tv company who have dropped out..........i await your contribution!!!!!
  9. Phil likes to wait until someone is down before putting the boot in.Well apart from Charlie the talented girl in the pits.I get the feeling Phil doesn't like her much and she hasn't even hit the floor yet
  10. Not sure on everyone who was there,but Mikkel Michelsen,Rasmus Jensen and Nicklas Porsing were.That is if we include Mikkel Bech as one of the big guys
  11. Berlin not only saw a great weekend of ice speedway,but also the public launch of the partnership between Zielona Gora and Berlin Wolfslake.falubaz riders will be in the Wolfslake Bundesliga team and there will be a big meeting in Wolfslake on the 8.may with riders including Jarek Hampell and Adreas Jonsson http://falubaz.com/pl/Galeria/Inne/Sezon-2013/Ice-Challenge-2013-Wilmersdorf-Berlin There is also an online report from the ice speedway on rbb and i think i heard that the full meeting is online somewhere.klick-sport or something like that
  12. Surely almost the exact time Lee came into the sport was also the time this "bikes were more equal" was going out of the window.Neil Street and then Weslake 4 valve and it just went on from there......
  13. Is that the message?Is it because of lack of fans or just that speedway isn't as prestigious as other sports?At least in Poznan or to the Poznan council.What sports will be included in the new stadium as there are few that are more popular,but plenty that are internationally more prestigious
  14. Exciting times in Finland then.Good to see that Estonia are also hosting 80cc speedway.No Lahti brothers in any squads?
  15. Great stuff.I heard from one Danish official that he was rather happy that his club wouldn't be qualifying for this great competition
  16. No the team championship will be better than that.It will also be better than the previous attempt when Swedish and German teams rode in the danish superliga.This will include British teams.......So it will be even better than when the Polish 2nd divison included a few foreign teams
  17. It is just as easy to ignore or make excuses.Should we ignore or make excuses for all the child molesters just because they are good entertainers,can sing a good song or preach a good sermon?This is a poor attitude that luckily Matt Ford doesn't share.I hope Darcy listens to people like him rather than people like you and accepts he has a problem and accepts help,rather than listen to people telling him any critics are just jealous
  18. Have a guess who will be a grumpy face if the answer is yes
  19. I think as an end result it is very important as to what is recorded.That is why i think he was cleverly advised.Say's he didn't do it and it goes to court and all sorts including drugs and drink might have been on his record.The way this has gone all he ends up with is a fine for motorbike incidents.Nowhere near as bad.So,end result he is pretty clean and can come and go as he wants i would imagine.This as it is intended,doesn't hurt his job.Like i said,when anyone looks up his record they won't see any newspaper reports.......or forum threads
  20. Wasn't he the one behind the push to bring Argentina into the international calendar?
  21. I'm sure it is if there is anything to find.Now we aren't talking about the newspaper report,but convictions or fines.So what is there to be found?As far as i can understand there is no conviction and just a fine for riding a bike without a licence:That isn't going to prevent anyone entering any country is it?A genuine question as that is how i understand the situation
  22. But why?When they look in any records just what for international customs is there to find?
  23. Honest guv.3 of us were together and as we came off the plane literally......just a few steps from the door two coppers were waiting there.We walked along a bit surprised and waited a while before passport check,but he never came.We had to then explain to his girlfriend he had disappeared of the face of the planet.But a day or so later he called from Scotland.So the police do get wind of things.Think he had done a runner from some outstanding trouble up there.Quite minor really.But i really can't see darcy getting any trouble from this.I doubt police look at newspaper reports and what if anything that would be listed for international police wouldn't imo be an awful lot
