Grand Central

Is there some sort of time delay for the commentators ? Every time someone did an obviously faster time they had no idea until about three or four seconds after we were seeing it on screen. It just makes them seem a bit retarded

It was great to get such comprehensive coverage of the Warsaw GP Isn’t it good to know that the people at The Star have their finger on the pulse of the Speedway public; regarding the most controversial incident since Tai got a new tattoo. They really got that just spot on with so much insightful input and discussion; plus the interview with Jason Doyle was a great scoop.

1954 … Brandon got 24k inside whilst in the same year they managed to cram over 102k into Odsal. Hilariously irrelevant in 2023.

When did Brandon last have the capacity to hold 24k ?

No disagreement from me. Very poor. Not only is the photoshopping dreadful, I want to scream at the hideous choice and mix of fonts. Mind you Chris Holder does look about 90 IRL.

I was congratulatory of the journalistic prowess of Peter Oakes to get this non-story in the national press. But I have now read his more personal take on it in todays Speedway Star and he seems to have lost sense of reality.

And that wouldn't pay the bills.

Hilarious nonsense. An object lesson in how a good journalist can get great coverage for the sport providing the word Wembley is attached … especially when a guy who knows absolutely nothing about the sport can be quoted spouting utter claptrap on a podcast.

That would explain it.

Integrity, Transparency and Perception… Phil is not wrong is he ?

I assume you were saying this in jest.

I don’t think anyone said he would be but it’s always helpful to state the bleeding obvious. So thanks.

It’s only part time.

You’re quite right I did not read it properly. My bad. A split personality with the ability to be in two places at once, wearing multiple hats must have been in the job description. Thank goodness there will be no chance of conflicting loyalties, eh?

Me. But not you. Someone has just pointed out to me that he is continuing with his GP job anyway whilst doing the PL job in his days off. So we can both be reassured that he gives a toss about both, equally.

And now no Morris ?

And so the lack of leadership of the SGP worsens further.

Of all the days to announce it ! Unbelievably dunderheaded.

I am expecting a world exclusive from Paul Burbidge in tomorrow's Star claiming that the news 'heralds a whole new era' and that 'the resignation of Ribeiro is the best piece of news since ... the appointment of Ribeiro.'

Hardly surprising that Turnbull isn't up to it.

Three pages in the Star this week with the deluded boss of Discovery events ... Apparently 2022 was the best year ever and any (VERY) minor imperfections were negligible. All in an interview with a totally independent journalist.

Eurosport continually show their contempt for viewers by employing Sam Ermolenko … any company who cannot see how crap he is are not taking the sport or its presentation seriously.

Monster energy reaches the parts other sugary drinks can’t reach.

But it might as well be just as far if you cannot cover the distance on a school night.

More Idiots playing fast and loose with the future of a club.
