The White Knight

I seem to remember a Post saying exactly that twelve months ago.

Ah - but - will he ride in the GP's next Season?? Has Ward not already stated that he would prefer to ride in Poland and could be affected by the one GP Rider per Team Rule there. :unsure: 100% agree with that statement too.

The 'nominations' are about as expected as far as I can see. I don't agree with 'nominations'. :angry:

OH YES IT WAS!!!!! Well - it IS becoming a bit of a Pantomime on this Thread. :party:

Speedway really is a GREAT Sport. People always so friendly and helpful. That has been MOSTLY my experience over forty seven years of watching it. :approve:

Well - I regard Johnnie Hoskins as the 'Father' of Speedway. Always have - and - always will. :approve:

It wasn't the 'S' or the 'Z' I was talking about (The OED acknowledges both). It was the fact that "bowlderisation" is NOT correct it should be bowdleris/zation. I may be being a tad pedantic - but - a word like that deserves the correct spelling. Sorry.

I think you will find the word is 'Bowdlerize'.

At least he can - and does - PASS. As I stated earlier - I hope Rune gets back in the GP's. He is very good to watch and THAT must be worth something.

I agree 100% also. :approve:

How VERY, VERY true.

I would still have a word with Len. I am sure he would sort this out for you.

I'm pretty sure that they cannot get out of someone using this Ticket as long as the qualifications (age) are met. I would certainly have a word with Len Silver regarding this Shadders and if you get no joy - then Trading Standards it is. Perhaps someone 'on the Gate' has made a mistake - it happens.

He was a super Rider when he came to England in 1964 with Gordon Guasco to ride for the ill fated Sunderland 'Saints'. :approve: Finished the 1964 Season with Wolverhampton. :sad: He went on to great things at Sheffield.

:angry:

Spot on!!

Greg deserves all the superlatives and plaudits that he is getting on this Thread. It is GREAT to see him as World Champion again. I always hoped this would happen - but - was always wondering what would go wrong. Thankfully nothing did. :approve: CONGRATULATIONS!!! Greg. You are now one of the true legends of our Sport, and such a nice bloke too :approve: Good luck for the future and dare we hope for a repeat in 2012. GO GREG!!!!!

Difficult choice. Speedway MUST win though - in the end. :approve:

I was under a misapprehension. I apologise to everyone, particularly to Diesel and Blazeaway. Thank you for your information HenryW.

I would argue that Nigel Boocock was at least as good as Eric. Les Collins finished second in a World Final - that's why I put him above those you have mentioned.

A very good Rider - but - NOT the BEST Rider we have ever produced. Collins (Peter & Les), Morton, Lee and Simmons and possibly Jessup were better. From previous eras Peter Craven, Freddie Williams too were superior though these sort of things can never be proved. For courage though - many were as brave as Carter but none more so. Just my opinion.

As SKY now OWN Virgin - WHY aren't the benefits of BOTH SKY and VIRGIN made available to BOTH sets of Subscribers??? :unsure:

No - but perhaps they should be. :rofl:

It makes me VERY sad - but - I have to agree with that Statement at present. :sad:
