  1. Will they start playing silly buggers again though if Manu or another foreigner is leading the Championship?Allegedly
  2. Maybe you hadn't realised......no-one takes much notice of what you post
  3. I guess they could get around the situation.Maybe by taking voluntary contributions like the Museums did.But i think the BSPA are pretty stringent on these type of thing.Seem to remember Len Silver being at odds with them way back in the 70s when he wanted to run training meetings in the off season against Iwade and Mildenhall.
  4. When you know for definite, let me know.Depends how many of you come,you can always kip by me in hamburg.Good night life Better than Vojens anyway
  5. Nice to have a GP almost on my doorstep.Even if it always rains in Vojens
  6. Yes,surely if they were advertised and also an entrance fee charged then they would be legit meetings.And as such only one a month would be able to be run.Plus if the general public was welcomed as such,then you would also need to comply with other safety standards?I know in Denmark they run lots of meetings that are not essentially for the general public(80cc meetings and 500cc meetings other than Superliga).They require less stringent medical facilities for these meetings!!!!
  7. New X,Stamford Bridge,Crystal Palace,West Ham and Celtic Park
  8. I agree.That is why i think Hans will finish at least in second.Just think if Nicki can stay focused he should win it.But it is a big if.After being so dominant for two years it might be the case that he relaxes too much.
  9. I don't believe it will be between Nicki and Jason.I think hans will come on a bit and at least split those two up.Whether he can challenge Nicki i am not sure.I think he lacks that bit of aggression in the crunch that Nicki has.
  10. I met Erik on numerous occasions this year when he was helping the youngsters.Esbjerg,Holsted,Vojens and at the Youth World Championships in Skaerbaek.Which is also where i met Hans.Tommy Knudsen also made a rare visit to a speedway meeting for the Final
  11. How is finishing 9th in the World a pile of what you have called him???? What are the other 3 or 500 riders below him then?
  12. I don't see the need to always be so abusive Ok,you don't agree with someone,but why can't you just post your opinion and prove them wrong?Anyway,i think until Hans made the breakthrough in 86 Erik held the upper hand psychologically.Hans tended to have a thing about big tracks whether that was just in the mind?I would guess it was,but he seemed to think in the eraly days that he went better on the small tracks.I thought they were both great.And having met both of them this year i think they are both nice guys as well.Although Erik made a great impression in the fact that he remembers me from the previous time and comes up to say hello.Even complimented me on my work which was an unbelievable feeling
  13. Eeekkk!Can you "imagine that" as LL Cool J would say?Heck no.That would be even worse if you were always going to get quotas from different countries.2 from Denmark,2 from Poland,2 from GB and then one Swede and one "other"
  14. I agrre with scb.I like Scott a lot and think he should be in.Obviously scb has seen Harris more than me,but at his best he is a good exciting rider.Just don't think he deserves to be in next year.But once the GPs come around i will be hoping he does well.No-one is going to tell me that i shouldn't post my thoughts on a forum.Problem is a lot of people fail to understand what is posted and jump to conclusions,usually wrong ones
  15. 1.Pull your neck in 2.You seem to like to have a reputation of being controversial,not afraid to call a spade a spade or a slovie a slovie.So if you are so out there and different it would be obvious to come to the conclusion that you are a bit different to the general population.Or not? So,and i do make judgments on people by what they post,uness of course they take on the character of a Mongolian warlord or something,i think it is a fair assumption(without attacking anyone)to say "we can't judge the rest of the population by your standards". 3.Get over it or press the report button,if you think i was attacking you.
  16. Yes,but there isn't another Shazzybird in the world is there?At least i hope not We don't want to judge the population at large by how you go about things But i still don't understand the arguement about having two Brits.Even if Scott was the only one given a wild card,we would still have another place for a British rider at cardiff.So would still have two riders to cheer on.If Chris or Tai came out at Cardiff and done well we'd all be happy surely.Wouldn't need to see them struggle throughout the year in all the other GP's though.
  17. I too would have rather Puk was in.He was far better this year than his previous GP season.And would have surely improved yet again.Sadly being danish goes against him.Like Mads said at Vojens recently..."It would be better if i was Hungarian"(i think it was Hungarian)
  18. I think you will have to live a long time spook,before IMG/BSI will be embarrased by these decisions. They can call off a GP and reschedule it for another venue another country without even consulting the riders.I don't see them being in the least embarrased by including two Brits when it is (maybe contractually a must) a financial rather than results led decision.In the end who is not going to turn up just because Bomber is in and Zagar or Puk isn't?Not many and that will most definitelly be negated by tv contracts
  19. Just found a great site in english about Danish speedway tracks,going back to the early days.Well worth a look.It states info on over 90 tracks currently online Danish Speedway
  20. iris123

    Kingsmead

    I didn't think that sort of thing got in your way??? Undercover of darkness.......the catphotographer strikes.......
  21. Fantastic tidbits Steve.Particularly Morian Hansen.Is he still alive? Talked to my Mum yesterday and Viv is sadly no longer with us
  22. And a pic of Ove enjoying the free ice at Vojens for the SWC Final Ove Fundin
