  1. Part two of the cookie plan is that for 2015, the MDL is to be rebranded as the EL, all riders are to have Team suits, and matching bike covers, admission will be limited to £20, and the crowds will love it.!!!
  2. No different to the Football premier League, can you imagine no foreign players, what a state it would be in.
  3. Ha, so we had redcar v rye called off because of a football match in Brazil, then rye v redcar called off because it might rain, but it didn't, next week in doubt because tescos are running low on frozen fish.
  4. It's called micro management, the amount of shale being the micro. One day they will prepare the track how the Home riders want it, interesting quote from the Team manager 'It left Rye House team manager John Sampford to reflect on a match that clearly got away in its second half - and he considered the changing track conditions to be a key factor. “We were in the ascendancy when the circuit was damp and grippy, and they didn’t seem to be able to handle it as well as us. Once it had dried out a little and slickened off, their trapping became much better than ours – and on a slicker surface that became critical'. So Rye are better than Ippo on a damp, grippy Foxhall track, so why, oh why do we have Rye like an extension of the A10?
  5. Gets even better with Monsieur T missing the next couple of Saturdays, and only another NL guest allowed, Kennett must feel like the Captain of the Titanic, Len says he needs a motivator, more like a miracle worker.
  6. Only himself to blame, the EL 2014 was a disaster waiting to happen with the NL fill in riders, and expecting the public to pay top dollar for the privilege of watching them, should have stood up and gone PL, his current Team would be in the top 3, and he would have stood a chance financially.
  7. Anything that reflects badly on Speedway, is always pushed into the pure conjecture folder, weather it's sex, drugs or rock n roll, almost like the Forum is policed by someone in Rugby!
  8. It appears that Monsieur Tres could be missing the next two home meetings, and with only an NL replacement available, it will definately be a stern test for the newly motivated rockets.
  9. Looks like Speedway goes for the cheap and cheerful basic Medical cover, last year at rye house a rider was badly injured, only to find out that the drugs carried by the ambulance were out of date and could not be used.
  10. It is always the best policy to speak the truth, unless, of course, you are an exceptionally good liar. Jerome K. Jerome Should have just given him his P45, why put up with someone who is clearly not happy riding on watered concrete.
  11. Could be the Rockets Captain, who was last seen having a row with the management over the watering on the slick line turning it into an ice rink.
  12. He then put Deek on his ar~~ this a sweet right hook in the pits.
  13. Hope Sheffield get a decent crowd tonight no way should Redcar be allowed to call their match off, can you imagine if a Rider said I'm not riding tonight as I'm going to watch football, what a joke.
  14. Don't bother going to the PL Pairs meeting either, cos Rockets are not in it or the 4's
  15. Who wants to go to Scotland twice in 6 days for one off Meetings, great planning.
  16. Doesn't help when the Frenchman goes grasstracking, then we end up with two NL riders, and still take it to a last heat decider, Tigers end up with Compton and Palm tree at reserve, about time we signed another reserve. Rockets guests scored 5 from 13 races over the two legs, that's the reason plain and simple.
  17. Sheffield racing at home same night, has that been called off yet?
  18. Genuine reasons for calling a meeting off now include, it might rain in a couple of days, there's a football match next week, we've got a burst pipe, the generator isn't working, and people wonder why it's treated as a joke sport.
  19. What a joke, football fixtures been known for ages, Redcar must be in a time warp
  20. As they're all supposed to be identical, put them all in a pile, and draw lots for them, problem solved, or weigh each one, that would solve any problems with alterations, more/less metal or packing would show up.
  21. Seen loads of upgraded/ pretty stadiums, with only a couple of hundred supporters, Oxford, Newport, IOW, Exeter all had pretty stadiums, but didn't bring in the fans.
  22. Ippo and Peterborough fish and chips may be great, but unfortunately the Speedway sees none of the profit, but uncle len sees it all, who's the clever one.
  23. Luke Bowen's certainly helped him when he crashed last week at Rye, horrible crash, but he walked away from it, could easily have been ribs or collarbone injuries.
