  1. thats the whole point - there should be!! EL heat leaders should not be in the PL (possible exception would be to allow any Brit to d/u but even that open to debate) Ideally IMO PL no1 should be about EL 2nd string standard and other heat leaders higher EL reserve standard. This would mean the jump from NL to PL eould be more manageable and hopefully produce a virtuous circle of Brit talent up the ladder. NO foreign rider should EVER be at PL reserve IMO.
  2. as in the post above they have been in the PL all that time so have established average. Personally I would only allow doubling up for British riders anyway. The PL should not be a place for foreign EL heat leaders. youve shot down your own arguement there - the PL should not be a place for 'world class riders' That sort of cost structure is part of the problem.
  3. whats interesting in potentially pushing the sport towards extinction??
  4. Even I cant think of a reason within the current rules to block Hall!
  5. its fair to say that my posts on Pboro threads are not always the most highbrow of efforts (hehe) and sometimes i am just on a wind up (hands up shoot me) but i have to seriously disagree on this one.Whilst proactive team changes are to be applauded i think the extent of the Pboro merrygoround this year has been too excessive and further risks the stability of the sport in an already fragile position. Such actions only force an unhealthy split between those teams that can afford to do little to compete and those that feel they have to attempt to keep up may well be pushed close or past a safe limit. Even the cash cow that is F1 limits changes (Lewis Hamilton grid penalty this weekend for exceeding engine number) Perhaps Speedway should consider such penalties should teams make an excesive number of changes (injuries aside)
  6. neither can find a new club due to the cut off for team changes - both shafted for the season..... lets hope they stick two fingers up and score 0 pootling around at the back or pulling wheelies......
  7. so lots of 2 faced insincere plattitudes to a pair of riders being called allsorts on here for weeks and you all wanted out anyway....
  8. perhaps Morrisey Fan has chucked his savings into the pot.....
  9. why would rain offs matter - isnt testing undertaken out of competition as well anyway.If they wanted to random rest an individual at any time surely they could.
  10. Big and little Bjerre fits for Busk and Oystercard i think.... Cant fault the pussycats for effort when it comes to making changes... Ged makes the North Koreans seem relaxed when it comes to dealing with failure!
  11. time for a Smiths parody composition for MF and friends (sic) Theres panic on the streets of Peterborough Break up up the speedway Sack the bloody reserve Sack the reserve sack the reserve sack the reserve.... sack the reserve and the second string and the heat leader But oh what difference does it make ? Its makes none..... Speedway in a coma i know i know its serious/ly funny
  12. this is gonna turn into one of those i work 25 hrs a day 8 days a week down pit and then sleep under a newspaper with no pyjamas threads isnt it!!!
  13. I enjoyed my visit there last year (made some noise all on my own!) Would be good to go again but work gets in the way of such fun....
  14. isnt the saying 'the exception to prove the rule' Although Mortens outside sweeps at Foxhall are memorable when he pulls them off.... (there are usually 2 or 3 a season)
  15. apologies - just dragged down to the general standard of the thread.....
  16. dont think Shanes is available Sundays either....not Poland this time but he goes to see his nan for tea every week - her sandwiches are a bigger draw than the Showground wink
  17. wouldnt he have a converted EL ave now as he has no current PL ave having missed 2 years???
