  1. If we can get SCB and BWitcher to adopt this thread it can be kept going until Lasse and Ludvig can take over from Kenneth and Freddie!!
  2. You seem to be ignoring my last post that he did exclude Nicki immediately after he had considered his decision by which time the race had ended. I am glad to see that you think it was the right result but am amazed to see you still argue it was against the rules!! I note from following others threads that to get into a tennis match of replies with you could involve me needing to book the week off work to do it justice with the risk that you to find one line in 300 posts that might contradict a point I made 3 days and 25 pages ago so I think I'll end my contribution here!
  3. ... immediately disqualify any rider he considers etc... Perhaps it took him 3 seconds to consider his decision and then he immediately disqualified Nicki and it just so happens that by that time Greg and the race has finished.
  4. Crump was classified as 3rd and THJ 2nd - neither crossed the line but were declared in those positions by the ref as those were the positions they held when Nicki was rightly excluded and Greg completed the race. Not really very difficult unless of course you happen to be someone that wants to start an arguement in an empty room!! Are you Nicki in disguise!!??!!
  5. Seems like very good refereeing then - it would have an easy reflex to hit the red light button (and unfairly make Greg and THJ go again) but he stayed calm and thus allowed himself to be able to call the fair and just result. But Greg did finish as the race was never stopped. Ref then calls result at time of incident that prevented further finishers.
  6. Had assumed red lights but youre right no stoppage! So he finishes the race and ref right to call places at time of incident.
  7. What a t***ser Nicki is. Ridiculous to say THJ threw it down.
  8. Had Greg crossed the line though? If he had then its called at the time of the incident - if not technically should be re run however harsh that seems.
  9. How can Nicki even think about complaining to the ref!! Shows just why so many fans dislike him so much. Shocking!!
  10. With Mat picking up a couple of better scores Morten may well come back at reserve.
  11. Surprised to see no one has commented on the fact that it was all but announced on live tv that barring any reaction to his practice spins that Morten will be back in the side within a fortnight.
  12. Well done to Plymouth last night. You are close to being a very good side and the changes you are calling for could well do the trick if made.Glanz impressed towards the end last night - not incredibly quick but rode intelligent lines to keep Dak behind in 14.
  13. Thanks for the ckarification. The wonders of 'special dispensation' - could speedway function without it!??
  14. Im not sure we can bring back Morten in place of Taylor. I thought that any rider left out of a redeclared 1 to 7 could not return to the line up that year. This may be different in this case given it was due to injury and not just being dropped.
  15. GB will have no contestant in the Olympic mixed carrot crunching after the entrant from Norfolk said that the rule stating his partner had to be his wife mother or cousin was too limiting a choice!!
  16. As unlikely as it is to happen (millions to one) the current ruling could leave the sport with the wrong world champion. Scenario - Hampel leads Hancock by one point going into the final of the last round and after a titanic 4 laps the race ends in a genuine dead heat. Hampel should be world champion as the points should be shared but instead Hancock is awarded the win due to his lower race number and picks up 2 extra points to pinch the title!!
  17. Just visited Bruv and my two boys are doing their bit for the Witches keeping Tay Tay racing in order with a spin on the spare machine - a Chuggington scooter with throttle clutch and mudguard!!!!!
  18. This may seem a bit strange but I need to make my second round predictions now as I won't be online for the next few weeks after tonight. My blind choices are Andreas Jonsson, Jarek Hampel, Bjarne Pedersen and Chris Harris. Hope thats OK. (Can't be much worse than round 1 anyway!!)
  19. Good question. If the answer is yes then the League Cup is 4 home and 4 away and so long as the rules havent changed (no guarantee there though!!) Cam and Rohan will get their new averages.Of course with the rest of the team having rolling averages even if Mats poor form continues his average will show a less dramatic drop.
  20. Despite being on the Ipswich retained list for the whole of his career Leigh has actually rarely raced for the Witches. He certainly didnt enjoy the old shape - particularly how it narrowed off turn 2 into the back straight.Since the revamp and the widening at that point Leigh has looked very comfortable at Foxhall. Over the years many Ipswich fans have been critical of Leigh, largely unfairly in my opinion, and I hope this doesn't come back to haunt us now and cause Leigh to choose to go elsewhere.
