  1. like others changing based on Jk signing Poole coventry kl be leicester swindon lakeside wolves
  2. Coventry now must be close to second favourites behind Poole. Great value bet for anyone who got on them at 22/1.
  3. Oldace - as a belle Vue fan I was hoping you could clear a couple of things up for me. do you know the surname of the rider called declan who I now understand was sponsored by the Eccles tourism board? And were Peter and Louis actually cars? I might need to revisit my old programmea as this thread has raised a lot of queries. was John Titman a real name, a description of John or some kind of sponsorship deal?
  4. though neither bryan Robson or Shearer ever made a world cup semi final.I don't think it's fair to say England are rubbish, but they are a tenth in the world type side, not world beaters, and that has been the case pretty much my whole lifetime.
  5. I've heard that matt's waiting for starman to confirm Jerran hart's prison status before he will authorize any work on the track.
  6. Ivan is still very well regarded, but I'd be amazed if he was voted third greatest kiwi. Certainly amongsthe the greatest motorcyclists/motorsports participants he'did be top three, but not all news (or even no sportspeople).
  7. I'm just waiting for the announcement that instead of referring to riders by name, they will henceforth be referred to in race cards, media etc. by their sponsors name instead. A trend started by Mason Wear for anyone not up to date with bsf hot topics...
  8. good that he's shaken off the groin injury he was suffering from a couple of nights back
  9. Is this really going to have much impact? Can't see any of the overseas players in the Premier League (except perhaps Winston Reid?) being affected. sounds like it will make it impossible for kiwis and some Africans to play in UK, but easier for players from top south American and non eu European nations.
  10. Have to say my first thought on reading this thread was that Gustix had decided he needed to out do star man's efforts on the Jerran hart thread, and by jove he may have managed it. Hurrah! Shame for Dave allan that no one seems to have answers as Dave is one of the most helpful blokes on here. Wish I could have helped Dave, but like others can't find anything (of relevance).
  11. tbf "scb admits he was wrong" is nowhere near as "limited edition" as "starman was right"
  12. out of interest how often do you know the facts before posting? Has the penny dropped re: jerran hart yet?
  13. Expect both legs to be pretty close, with narrow home wins. On aggregate I reckon poole by six, their second strings being the difference.
  14. I see, so individual meetings are free of charge to the viewing public and therefore they cant expect riders to complete their scheduled rides?
  15. a straight answer was given at least four times and you still didn't grasp it. What language do you need to be answered in for you to be able to comprehend?
  16. adhd is really quite different to aspergers though, and I didn't think it was regarded as being part of the autistic spectrum? Though I understand substance abuse can be quite common as a coping mechanism for adult adhd, it is hard to find sympathy for someone who has repeatedly endangered others in this manner. A real shame, as he's one of my favourite riders.
  17. im no poole fan, but last year they showed loyalty to josh g and milik when they could have replaced them with better riders mid-season. im no poole fan, but last year they showed loyalty to josh g and milik when they could have replaced them with better riders mid-season.that said north to ward would be a no brainer BUT I think that would need to be a two step transfer (e.g. North to kk to ward) - cant see north getting his average high enough to facilitate a straight swap.
  18. because there weren't top class domestic leagues in poland and sweden in 1965. With an 8 team el, surely the logical thing is simply top two from each side, which if all riders are available should generate a decent lineup.
  19. And people complain about riders being mercenary and showing no loyalty....
  20. Re reading darcy's post about a statement. Is it possible he is referring to releasing the fim statement, not making a statement of his own? And the reason for his delay is that statement is not yet receiived?
  21. Good to see andy smith get a mention on this thread. For too many, the memory will be of a veteran rider who somehow scraped into the gps year after year. but anyone who was at hyde rd in the early 80s will remember him as one of the most exciting teenage racers of all time. A favourite memory if mine is 1983 - he may have just turned 17- and him producing a blast round the boards for a from the back victory over mike lee, who was truly world class that year. But my word, if people think Lamberts gating (or morts, or pcs) is bad, smudgers was next level bad!
  22. Poole kl belle vue leicester coventry swindon lakeside wolves
  23. Darcy is "waiting on some details" before he can release his statement (source darcy's twitterpage).
  24. Coventry surely are nt that much worse - if any- than lakeside and swindon? leicester the best value, lakeside the worst, but very hard to look past poole for champ s.
