  1. Ahh!! THAT'S where it went.........................................I always wondered. :shock:
  2. I have been advised by my son that there will be NO Speedway GPS on SKY next year according to Twitter.
  3. I don't want to stir anything up - BUT - I do NOT like Ole Olsen's idea of a Speedway Track. Ruined the Sport to my mind.
  4. Canny Team that sidney - one I would go a long way to watch.
  5. Hello BeWitcher - I'm back. Still at it I see - as you seem to have the answer to everything, after sleeping on it, I have decide to leave the field to yourself. I am tired of trying to explain my position to you. I can Debate with oldace - but you.......................................................................... You've won - SO - it's all yours on this Thread - - - - until the next time I Post on it.
  6. Very sad to hear this news. I saw Ken ride for Workington and met him a while ago at a Long Eaton Reunion. A really nice man and a Gentleman too. R.I.P. + Ken.
  7. I'm sorry folks - I have to go out. Be back tomorrow PM. :)
  8. Do you play Tennis to Wimbledon standard - no - I doubt it. I am talking about Speedway Riders in a Speedway Competition - THAT is what I meant by your being silly - unless of course you ARE of Wimbledon standard in which case I will apologise. If not - you were being silly.
  9. Too much of a voice from what I hear and observe on the Television.
  10. Now you are being silly. I thought you were better than that.
  11. Bollocks!! So you are saying that these Rider would NOT Qualify under my System. They CAN'T be the BEST Riders in the World then can they? I have already admitted this on a previous Post BeWitcher - PLEASE keep up. :)
  12. THAT is your opinion, which I respect. I don't agree with you and that is my right. I argue for FAIRNESS for ALL and get pilloried for doing so. It is a VERY odd World.
  13. Basically the Qualification Rules for the GP Series are rubbish in my opinion - so I think the answer to your question is - YES!!!
  14. Re: No.6 Are they retaining the B****Y Joker does anyone know? :mad:
  15. (Sigh) ........................... and the criteria is what I am arguing against.
  16. I apologise - I did read it - but - on re-reading your Post I picked it up the wrong way. I'm sorry. Note to self - don't get wound up and do things in a hurry - you will end up with egg on your face.
  17. Exactly oldace. Top eight places allocated from previous year. Fair - I don't think so. They should ALL have to qualify, even the World Champion. Mauger, 'Briggo' all had to - what makes today's Champion so special.
  18. Read what I Posted above. The answer to your question is to run Qualifying Rounds for all Riders who wish to take part. If Riders, as sidney says, don't wish to ride, for whatever reason - they should not be forced to do so. Those who WOULD like to ride in the GP Series SHOULD be given the chance to Qualify............... Are you following me about BeWitcher?
  19. Very true sidney. Gary was a super Rider. I'm sure he would have gone far had he carried on racing. I don't know what happened to him - it would be interesting to know. They had some great Riders in those days did Crewe. Phil Crump, Dai Evans, Colin Tucker, John Jackson, and of course the great Sunderland 'Stars' legend Jack Millen. :approve:
  20. I agree with most of what you say SC. Whilst I DID prefer the 'One Off' World Final - I realise that not everyone agrees with me - Fair enough. I have recently had my views on that shown to be wrong in one sense. My problem is, and always has been, the Qualifying method to get in to the GPs. I just believe that everyone should get a chance. Some Riders will NEVER get a chance to test themselves against the very BEST Riders in the World - if they did, you never know, we might discover a new World Champion.. I am not arguing my case for the sake of argument - I am arguing my case because I believe passionately in Fair Play.
