The White Knight

Confucius he say: "He who expecteth little shall not be disappointed". Applies pretty well to Speedway methinks.

I'm glad you Posted that - because I don't understand it either.

Nice Post 1 valve. It is great to get the other viewpoint once in a while. I can't understand all the negativity on this Thread - AT LEAST YOU HAVE SPEEDWAY!! We don't at Sunderland and haven't had for FORTY years.

That's NOT what I was thinking.

'Fraid so - and how. Says he thinking of the Belle Vue Meeting - I am STILL trying to get my head around THAT!!!

I don't particularly want to see Poole win again.

Ahhh - but which one was it that shot Archduke Ferdinand to cause the First World War? Was it Nigel or was it Kelvin? HAD to be one of them.

Oh!! Sh*t. I never thought of that.

Only that doesn't work for me................................................................. I have managed to send a Message on Internet Explorer. So far I have been hopping around from IE to Google to Firefox to try to get things to work.

What's so special about Doubling Up? There are PLENTY of other Mickey Mouse Rules to consider.

....................... and Ivan Mauger falling in 1973 and that Polish bloke (Jerzy Sczakiel) winning the World Final. ALL down to the two of them - WOW!!! what an impact they have had on Speedway.

Yes - but that is only a 'WEE' problem after all.

Sick of it were you?

Let's hope that there are no closures - we will just have to wait and see I suppose.

It will be an absolute disgrace if James Grieves does not get his Farewell Meeting. :sad: Could it be held at another Track perhaps?

I didn't know it was that much though?

Ability and Morality out of the window. :rofl: CLASSIC!!! Obviously it doesn't matter about the BEST Riders being in the SGP Series to the FIM, BSI/IMG. AWWW - boo hoo!!! - Laguta has upset someone at the FIM - TOUGH!!! If you are going to have gifted places Laguta should have been riding.

An interesting question is that JL. I wonder if it will get an answer. :unsure:

Thank you for your full explanation Gordon.

Riders would STILL (sadly) get injured and R/R would still need to be used. I do take your point about Doubling Up though. I was mainly commenting on National League Riders at Reserve. Their own Race (Heat 2) it could be done.

My reasons are the Rules - but you raise a good point about injuries - there seem to be a LOT more of them these days. :sad:

The beauty of the SELECTION System. :rolleyes: :rofl:

Any ideas about Presentation then? It would not only benefit newcomers but it would also benefit us 'old codgers' too. Or do we not count. You are right about youngsters being the future of the Sport - but you need to look after your LOYAL OLD Supporters too.

It might kill some of us 'oldies' off'.

It might be boring, it might also be necessary. :sad: As regards Crowds - they are dropping anyway. :sad: Totally agree with you about ideas. Have you got any?
