  1. I thought it was 'Uncle' Len Silver. I am sure someone will put us right.
  2. The Past is a foreign Country - they do things differently there. L.P. Hartley. ............................... and as far as Speedway is concerned - they did it better. :sad:
  3. It's all relative though. The British Champion is still the 'British Champion'. He STILL has to win it.
  4. Oh dear!!! :sad: I haven't been to a Meeting for two weeks. Now the flaming weather looks like it'll probably be three after Sunday at Brough. Damn it!!!!
  5. I know - I have to keep replying to people. That what the Forum is about - in my opinion. :)
  6. I reckon Kerr would have got more than 3 Points from the one Meeting he is behind. (I can't prove it though - obviously). I rest my Case. Believe it or not - I honestly hope he proves me wrong. Nobody would be more delighted than me - he has the talent - but .................................................
  7. Lioness - please could you tell me what VCC stands for in your Signature - I'm both intrigued and impressed - or I would be if I knew what it meant? Genuine question. Cheers.
  8. I think you will find you are right - but - I would make Lindgren more 'mediocre' than Robbo, Kerr and King.
  9. He may have been Number One on Stats alone - but - he certainly never rode like one. That, is my opinion.
  10. I would only say that I am not out to get Lindgren. I admire anyone, including him, who throws his leg over a Speedway Bike and competes. I just don't think he is the quality of Robbo or has the potential of Kerr. I suppose what I am saying is that I can't see him improving much, if at all. I said he wasn't a Number One at Christmas, I was right about that, I still think I am right about him now.
  11. Don't worry - I expected replies like this. You are entitled to your opinions as I am entitled to mine. I would recommend that you look at his Scores this Season though - mediocre - to say the least.
  12. Sadly - you will not see any Crowds like that these days. :sad: However, if you like reading about or looking at photographs from the 'old days' I can do no more than recommend 'Classic Speedway Magazine'/'BackTrack Magazine'. A great read and some superb pictures. http://retro-speedway.com/home.php
  13. Yes - that was when SPEEDWAY was SPEEDWAY. :sad: I mourn it's passing. :sad:
  14. You MUST be kidding. Lindgren couldn't Team Ride if his life depended on it. He's a 'Gate and Go' merchant - nothing else. Personally - I wish we had kept Henry or Rosen and got rid of him instead. He is far too inconsistant and not much good away from Home. Henry would get you Points anywhere.
  15. Very well said fromafar. That would also make the Sport safer for the Riders, cheaper too probably. Says it all really.
  16. That is why they brought in Double Points? :rolleyes: :rofl:
  17. I wasn't there yesterday. :shock: I wish I had been though - it sounds like it was a super Meeting. Well Done the 'Monarchs'.
  18. Which taken altogether with all the stupid Rule changes, make me sometimes question whether the Sport we are watching today is the same one as years ago. The answer to me anyway is that it isn't. It is just a version of what we used to watch. A poorer version at that.
