  1. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit, makes me wonder if you want him to fail you would have to be Stevie Wonder to think he has not improved a wee bit.
  2. Compton will not score 0 most weeks a few points could be crucial.
  3. Crap commentator end of, up his own a.. loved being centre of attention 30 years behind his sell buy date.
  4. Really it is so sad, you would think with Poole's past record they would think twice about any controversy.Do they care? does Ford care? ( also this bloke is supposed to be a genius?). I don't know the ins/outs of this pathetic rule and also i could not care less but again Poole are involved.I am not anti Poole i love going there a great day out but every year there is a bad smell.Again there supporters are a decent people, i have spoke to aload over the years again though the sport really looks to be run a Micky mouse way.
  5. A crazy situation really surely a compromise can be met? again the supporter misses out.Seeing a real talent test himself against the best it's like football missing out on watching Messi play football.
  6. If he rides he will win the title at some stage,for me Emil and Ward are the two biggest talents the sport has with Tai,Greg,Niels upsides who are all as we all know great riders.
  7. Trust the politicians RIGHT on probably one of the most important issues ever.This issue will affect everybody,sure we all need a little more knowledge on the subject so lets have that on both sides of the arguement.
  8. This is where the sport needs to wise up, the likes of you Crazy Robin, Yerropes and Steve not going is criminal really.I go every week more on habit than anything else, and i feel exactly the same as you too on the value for money issue.I know a couple of people who were as keen as me on speedway ,one picks his meetings these days and the other does not bother at all how many are there over the country who feel the same.?
  9. Willliamson at Scunny another example his average is terrible but he has often been in the mix in decent positions can he learn from his mistakes and progress.Who knows? another example on how figures can be false the figures tell me Kyle has made minimal progress but my eyes tell me he is a better all round speedway rides being race sharp and confidence brings that.
  10. We hopefully want to see the best riders in the series and him being missing has took a bit away from it a real talent.
  11. Total rubbish Lawson,Hollingworth,Jackson,Fiala,(ect) as examples were never BL full timers were terrific at Div 2 level never quite conquered the higher level.Kyle can improve his average at PL level but i would imagine he would want to push on in his EL career horses for courses maybe Newman is more suited to the EL?
  12. Addio was looking forward to watching Adam again is one i hope keeps improving again i presumed he was riding.Then i find out he is riding for Ippo oh well this is speedway, really interested to see what form Lewis is in people have told me he has improved.I always thought and hoped he could move to the Abbey further his career on a bigger circuit the ability is there.
  13. So true speedway the rules do my f ..... head in they are more worried about that and who wins a EGG cup at the end of the year rather than trying to improve the product and pushing the sport forward.
  14. Such a shame the side i see the other night looks a very decent one it has every chance .WIN but not at any cost,for me winning is a bonus do thing's in the right manor IF? they have cheated really they have cheated themselves for what a couple of extra points here and there.!
  15. He said the other day if the right powers are not given back to us then we must leave the EU.Great news i bet the greatest EU supporter HA is a worried man a referendum should be a certainty at the least.??
  16. I totally disagree figures can be very misleading they can be false.I have seen Kyle a few times this year live and on tv not as much as some on here so they would have more of a rounded view than i.But he certainly has improved as a rider also Kyle may be suited to the EL more than the PL some riders are different.Going back years as examples the likes of Holloway,Hunt, were no world beaters in the NL but went on to be good established second strings in a mega tough BL.Where the likes of Lawson,Hollingworth,Jackson, Ferreira,(riders i liked)never cut it in the tougher league. Great post and Auty is a prime example he is not getting the rides the sharpness to put right his mistakes being busy keeping sharp is the key Kyle has benefitted from this and its great to see.

  18. Totally right Orion" a massive difference certainly away as to be honest Johnson was struggling to compete against his own level a 2 or 3 point total could really sway things.On the subject this is why most fans do not like this rule, Benji no disrespect is not at the age that the rule was designed for it has to be changed next year.
  19. A real racer gives everything and i see him at Swindon this year he rode very well.Can compete he will score more than the other guy no disrespect to him.
  20. I see him quite a few years ago did he ride for Sheffield in the conference with speight,and Ben Wilson.?
  21. He is better than Johnson i saw him at Swindon early in the season,and rode well he won't break records but he could score a few valuable points that could make a difference.
  22. He is Australian through and through and is part of there future, why would he do it no real logic to it.
  23. Just shows you GR how confidence is so important, Steve last year struggled for whatever reason went back to NL racing.This year i have seen quite alot of Steve, and he has been really impressive for the Robins i hope Ritchie can get back on track.
  24. I use my eyes and judge on there riding,is he riding different lines? is he better on the bike? Is he putting himself in better positions in a race?.The fast track thing really if we are being honest is not working, the suspects we all name they are good anough to be there but how many are there who are not good anough?I will judge Kyle when he tries to bridge the gap and be good anough to be in a 1/5 a tough ask.
