Well pray tell us all which utopia you watch your speedway in, I mean where do you go to find 15, 20, or even 22 heats of close, exciting speedway with more passes in every race than you could shake a stick at, where you could throw a proverbial blanket over all 4 riders for all 4 laps. Go on you miserable soul, share the secret of speedway heaven. You either know nothing about the sport or you're on the wind up, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and congratulate you on reeling me in, well done.

You're a braver man than me, I've used the other unique one for ages but every time I have a peep at the dual grid version I feel it's too much, each to their own though. I'm sure we're all very grateful to Paul and anyone else for making the effort, improves my evenings speedway by around 25% I reckon. Wouldn't dream of attending a meeting and not having a programme, whether included in the admission fee or not.

Oh Dear, Lee Guilty Of Drug Possession

As with alcohol it depends on who is using it, if someone says it's harmless it's probably because they've not seen or personally experienced any problems with it, like me for example. I maintain it's harmless because that's my own experience, I don't say it 'flippantly'. Having 'moved' amongst regular users for the past 25yrs I can say with my hand on my heart I have never seen anyone have a problem with cannabis use. If it has impaired my life in any way it would be that I always used it with tobacco, I smoked cigs since I was 9y/o so cannabis wasn't the pathway to smoking. Using a loosely based comparison with alcohol I would put cannabis alongside shandy. Obviously there are those that will move on to other drugs, just like those that step up their alcohol intake from the odd shandy, you can't change human nature and that's where the problem lies, not with the substance. Anyway, seeing as this thread is about Michael Lee, good luck to him, I hope life works out ok for him, what a shame that someone thought it ok to report him to the police over a little bit of nothing, he must have upset someone a tad. -

This meeting/venue has had it's detractors and rightly so, it doesn't produce good racing as a rule but tonight I reckon the riders have excelled themselves and really given it a go, virtually all of them have mixed it at some point or other. The 2 semi finals were exciting, here's hoping for a spectacular final to cap it off. As for the coverage, no complaints, I reckon Eurosport have a decent mix at the moment, leave well alone and let it develop. -

If you couldn't see that coming then you need to start reading your own posts before pressing the black button mate.

Cheers. Agree with those that are enjoying this, decent meeting run smoothly so far, presentation not bad at all, the curvy graphics are eyecatching, Scott Nicholls going from strength to strength as a good all rounder, he's had a great coach I suppose. That helmet cam seems better than what we normally get to see, could be due to the big smooth track not throwing the rider around I suppose, just seemed to give you a more interesting view.

Oh come on that's unfair, April 10th just has no sort of ring to it whatsoever, you've completely ruined the notion of it being a whole year since a post, what right do you think you have to come on here spouting the truth? I hope you're pleased with yourself.
