Success is what brings in crowd levels. Has always been the case. Exeter were a prime example of that in the premier days, regular got well over 1000 a week due to winning at home 99 percent of the time even though they were awful away from home most of the time. And the racing there was absolutely rubbish, gate and go. Having a big council funded stadium with a nice, good race track doesn't guarantee a good crowd as Belle Vue have found out.

AJ Gollob Loram Cegielski Ward At the old premier league level, from watching him every week for three or four years there was none better than Frank Smart. Every week around Newport he would pass heat leaders for fun. His pass of Kelvin Tatum was something else and also his memorable win from 15 ms back at Swindon against Steve Masters will long live in the memory. Fry around Swindon was great to watch from the back. Harris around Trelawny as well.

Lemon could pass though and have seen him numerous times making decent passes on decent riders. Werner wouldn't pass a 3.00 reserve if he missed the gate. Wato in his last year or two was the ultimate gating tart but after the amount of season ending injurys he went through who could blame him, before that he could pass the best of them anywhere.

Brent Werner stands out for me at Premier Level. Made the gate and was superb, miss it and you could forget it. Klindt is another one.

Derwent Park was a much better track than Berwick, went to the pairs 2 or 3 times there and was always good racing.

Just shows how far the standard of the younger generation has dropped. i went to the 2003 u21 final at Sheffield which Stead won, Harris was a 9 point number 1 for Trelawny and didnt even make the final. Lee Richardson in 99 won the world under 21 final in a stellar line up. You now have second tier reserves on the podium. what on earth has happened to junior speedway in the uk?

Agree. And a disgusting personality/attitude to go with it. Bewley was our main hope, chalk and cheese compared to Lambert. A likeable character, pure box office to watch and no fear. hopefully this nasty leg break wont dent his future.

Racing wise its streets ahead of Cardiff and Wembley. As for a GP weekend as a whole, it wont ever compare to Cardiff.

Mental how low BV regular crowds are when they are given top class speedway to watch each week.

Exactly , the likes of Pedersen would never give him the room he gets with the current crop and life would be much more difficult for him. Take nothing away from him though, hes a great talent and should make the most of him.

Zmarzlik is for me the best of this era by some distance , and will likely get 7/8 world titles minimum. He is superb. would he of won those titles in an era containing prime Rickardsson, Crump, Pedersen? I'm not sure. Tracks back then were nowhere near as good as they are now preparation wise.

Klindt has taken the p""s for years now, why anyone bothers signing him is a mystery.

You could easily of set this system up ten years ago with the technology around then. Stop talking bollocks as usual.
