  1. Lynn not for the first time have a side that looks great on paper but falls short. Is Lyon a good a manager as what people say? Lets be honest, he done well with them in the old Premier League but some of the teams built it would of been hard not to do well they were that strong. Since rejoining the top division, they have been nearer the bottom than the top most of the time and mainly under Lyon's management. The sad thing is the stadium, from what I remember, was more than decent for a speedway stadium, good fanbase and large crowds. With the right management it should be a thriving club.
  2. People need to drop the idea of hosting any important meeting at Belle Vue. I have seen people suggesting every important meeting in the British calendar should be held there. The crowds for second tier pairs, fours or riders championships there would be rubbish.
  3. Baffling why riders don't ride as a pair sometimes in meetings like this. Seen it so many times over the years, instead of team riding and settling for a heat advantage their ego gets the better of them and they end up costing their team.
  4. Was on SKY wasn't it? I remember Sean Wilson doing something similar to Jesper Olsen at the fours at Peterborough one year too.
  5. The fact Harris left his comments open so long on his post about the incident allowing some of the comments to be posted is bonkers. For what its worth I don't mind either rider, looks to me as if Harris turned his bike to stop and took Barker off by mistake. Can't comment on the stamping incident as there are bikes in the way but would imagine if he did stamp on him then more Plymouth riders and officials would of been kicking off about it. Some lad claiming to be Harris' mechanic is on there posting all sorts of comical threats, threatening to rip Barkers throat out next time he sees him. He couldn't rip a sausage roll out of a greggs paperbag the absolute k**bhead.
  6. Bang on. Drugs have been rife in the sport for decades and its only a very small minority that get caught. Same as any sport I guess though, can't tell me that all premier league footballers are squeaky clean. Garrity though is a scumbag as well as a user.
  7. For you to call someone else a prat is absolutely comical. You are, hands down, the forums biggest idiot of the last 20 odd years. Poole have some dodgy fans, some outright dodgy, some just biased beyond belief but you are another level.
  8. So Castanga lost Edinburgh the match because of show boating before the line? LOL. back in the day of more riders being available, Edinburgh would of sacked him on the spot for that. What a knobhead.
  9. I think Stevelyric is correct on this one. It was often the case years ago that riders would prefer a slick dustbowl to a nice grippy track. Tim Stone often got quizzed on why the track was always so slick every Sunday at Newport and he would always reply that riders wanted it like that. I remember one year Stonehewer nearly having a seizure when he seen the water bowser going out with the tractors. I guess its safer for riders rather than a deep, grippy track. Who knows.
  10. After reading Lawsons statement, though, I guess the rumor going round is false? The rumor I heard was Lawson called Hurry to tell him he was going to be late and miss heat one, so Hurry called him a few expletives and Lawson turned round and went home.
  11. Maybe he is telling the truth, afterall he has been ultra reliable year in year out for nearly two decades now.
  12. Don't think any team is winning the league with NKI and Bomber in there. Way passed their best at the top level now and too inconsistent. As much as they have been class performers over the years, especially Iversen, you won't win the league with both of them in the side.
  13. He did, albeit against a very weak Exeter PL team in the British League cup if I remember right.
  14. Oxford meeting last week. Heard it from two different people who never get stuff wrong.
