  1. The only analogy I can make with Tai Woffinden is Rory Mcilroy's predicament in golf. He plays his golf on the US tour, and all the majors of which one is in the UK but he always makes a place in his calendar to play the Irish Open. Its not for the prize money he can earn more in the corresponding US event but feels its important for his fans in Ireland,north and south to see him play and be able to engage with the fans of the country he represents around the World. Just Saying !
  2. Whether Leicester get a point is neither hear or there to Wolves. Still think its a weakness that we don't adopt last years scoring system. Heat 15 would have been really significant if a Leicester 4-2 could have denied the home team a point .Not a great crowd tonight, regardless that we are top of the league.Was impressed with Leicester, very solid and with a genuine Number 1 could have won tonight. Leicester made good starts all night but it took them until heat 8 to learn the cardinal sin at Monmore,don't allow the home riders a run up the inside.When the dirt moved out later on Lindgren and the unbeaten Karlsson couldn't make any impression when at the back. Looks like 4 teams from 5 for the play offs
  3. Speedway fans the World over I'm afraid. A true race to the bottom
  4. The proper good old days, proper noise of engines and listen to the noise and excitement of the large crowd. Seems the new silencers have had the same effect on the terraces as they have had on the bikes. Glad I saw those days ,sadly never to return !
  5. Sorry Darren,didn't word that post very well. What I meant to say was that we have been sloshing around for 82 pages of what I have labelled 'speculation' by posters include myself who don't know Tai Woffinden personally . Obviously you do, so your posts have a bit more gravitas than most on here me included.
  6. Useful post If we have any questions in the future we can put them through you directly
  7. Things I miss; Atmosphere on the terraces Old silencers (proper sound) smell of Castrol R one way chips the other. Quality of racing at Monmore pre 2011 Deep tracks Best riders in the world in the Elite league. one off world final Overseas final on a Sunday at Coventry Test matches Dudley Wolves Trophy Sunstrips on car windscreens rosettes of your favourite riders air horns in the league matches whistles Bradford Odsal Stadium War cries Elite league 4's at Peterborough The host nation NOT seeded to the world cup final Fans booing and gesticulating to the ref with a pair of glasses when a bad decision occurs (no body bothers now) People who have stopped going Large travelling support Having to queue at the turnstilles
  8. With the play off system, its probably one the management think we can afford to lose.
  9. As Ive said many times before, you do not know Tai Woffinden so you do not know what he is thinking or why he does what he does. Your opinion on here is pure speculation, the same as everyone else's on here, so don't think you are speaking the gospel truth because you are just one opinion..Why is your opinion so greater than others that when anyone who doesn't agree with you is targeted with the sharp end of your tongue.. You may think you are the authority on everything but your just one opinion of many, definitely not the authority .
  10. How is that going to work when they are 2 leagues apart ?
  11. So missing the British Final is going to be the difference between being World Champion or not ?
  12. I sincerely hope we don't come stone last after all this debate.
  13. Don't start that again . You will get Gavan biting !
  14. Wolverhampton are always on the TV on a Monday,are regular race night and it still affects are crowd significantly
  15. Whats happened to Danny King he was in everyone's team this time last week They say a weeks a long time in politics !
  16. The reason this effects speedway so much is season tickets or the lack of them sold at speedway. If you have a season ticket say in rugby,cricket ,football etc you will still go to a TV match because you have already paid upfront. Season tickets dominate modern sport but not speedway, maybe a more attractive season ticket would encourage more fans to attend every match TV or not.
  17. Seems my request has fell on deaf ears ! Take a step back you 2 guys and pack it in. Never seen a thread get so nasty and personal , yes the BSF is there for debate not for the vitriol you are both displaying . Please enough ! for the good of yourselves and the Forum
  18. BBC weather forecast for Prague today is shocking . Thunder / lightning most of the day
  19. Have no fear using the trains in Poland. A few tips ,give yourself plenty of time as there is usually a queue at the ticket window,write down in Polish on a piece of paper your destination,class of ticket time of train and that its a single ticket ,the women at the ticket windows tend not to speak English.Poznan has a new modern station with plenty of screens showing the times destinations etc.If in any doubt go to the information centre where English is widely spoken. Hope this helps
  20. Just cannot see enough clubs wanting to run at this level , with several doubts over the viability of many current Elite league clubs at present, it seems no clubs have increased costs at the top of the agenda. Plenty of clubs in the Premier League have had 20 years to move up to Elite league level and declined, How many ex Elite league clubs who have had there fingers burnt would fancy another go at Elite level,non in my opinion.
  21. Come on guys enough is enough. We have all had our say 10 times over and opinions aren't going to change. Lets wrap it up, stop the personal insults and hostility ,its helping no one Lets just respect each others opinions ,agree to disagree and close this thread.
