  1. Ward will win a world title, at least two Id say Cant agree Gollob was better than hancock or pedersen, pedersens been a top world class performer for well over a decade now and has always been entertaining, in his earlier gp days he used to pass people for fun. Also nicki and greg are decent on any kind of track - gollob at times had limited ability on a small track And who can forget nickis dominating world title win in 07 or 08?? Id put pedersen down as second or third best in the last 20 years behind trick and maybe crump.
  2. i heard he came back from his injuries where are you too early He has equly as much talent as nbja but injuriew held him bqck - big shame
  3. Think Mellgren needs a move away. Quality rider but seems to of gone a bit stale at Rye - despite the injuries. That said he had a horrific back injury that maby wouldnt of returned from. Was hoping hed be pushing kennett for number one this year tho.
  4. The Plymouth crowds must have drastically decreased over the last year or so to be only about 500.
  5. Used to love my visits to Exeter. Why was Hills money used recently at Plymouth - surely for a club that reportedly get about 1000 fans a week and have been near the foot of the PL since coming up , the club should be making a good enough profit?!
  6. A regular at individuals at Newport over the years and a regular A Finalist. Remember hoping he would sign for Newport when he first announced he was dropping back down to the PL. Sadly, for us anyway, he opted for Scunny. A brilliant PL rider . All the best David
  7. AJ is one of the better riders to watch - always has been entertaining on track. But if he doesnt make top 8 this year i wouldnt think he will be back in as a wildcard . Maybe the kick up the ass he needs.
  8. No wealthy speedway riders? The likes of Crump and Rickardsson would of made well over a million during their careers without doubt - you can guarantee the likes of pedersen and hancock are more than a bit wealthy as well
  9. Does edberg like any form of track?? Complete waste of space and a shocking attitude it seems as well. Why the promotion are wasting money on air fares for him is anyones guess . Replacing him with Carr would surely be a no brainer all round Thormblom looks impressive though - got to be a positive. The berwick 1-7 looks very poor overall though atm
  10. You are probably right however be barely tried a leg whenever he did show at newport describing the track as a disgrace yet Grieves said in an interview It was one of his favorite tracks - remember him scoring a max in the pairs and scored good points throughout his career. Fact is a lot of riders dont fancy it at certain tracks
  11. The draft system is a mess quite honestly. How on earth are the likes of Wilkinson, boxall, roynon etc in it? Wilkos one of my favorite riders to watch, unique style and never knows when hes beaten but he made his PL debut in about 2001! Not his fault just the idiots in charge of this system. May as well make any PL british rider available tp ride in it, may as well give the likes of Lanham a draft place! James wright is another disgraceful selection, spent a good time as a pl number 1 includiny a PLRC title. Who on earth makes these rules up? The sports a complete mess in this country from top to bottom .
  12. Your right, who can forget Carrs famous sudden injuries when due at newport a few times ?
  13. Sometimes even tho the scores dont add up , the teams stronger Swindon signing Ward puts batchelor back down to number 5 and also gives them a proper number one. Swindon are definately stronger now and will only improve as The cZech settles in.
  14. And people thought swindon wouldnt be stronger with Ward !!! The guys class on a bike
  15. So flattered to see youve taken me off your block list 😂😂
  16. What a shower this wolves team is and to think brum was saying their potentially a top 4 team a couple of weeks ago! Ha! Lindgren garbage and well past his sell by date.... Think they could build a decent team next year though starting with Woffinden on a bargain average - need to give him an offer he cant refuse or who else will line up at 1? Lindgren has proved hes no longer a number one. Unless they decide to get on the phone to Nicki P?
  17. Sad news indeed - reminds me of Newports last season Sadly press releases like this wont help the crowds as the malletts found out. The sport in the UK is dying on its arse - forget the success of Cardiff Gp that is in general treated as a one off day out for a great event, the amount of newport fans i seen most years there who hadnt been to newport for years on end confirmed that. Newports final season offered everything, the track and racing was superb under floodlights, a very dominant 1-7 (probably one of the strongest ever pl septets ive seen) and the team was full of racers - lanham, gjedde, doyle, aspegren , who would miss the gate and pick riders off for fun sometimes Hard to see where scunny go from here
  18. Fell asleep after heat 8.... Watched it back today and it got much better as it progressed tho Nice to see puk take the win, will he kick on from here? Certainly be good to see him do so
  19. Surprised you havent predicted a lakeside win then
  20. Back to earth for cook. Didnt know what to do then. Track looks good but still rather watch a rougher surface with better racing than a billiard table with little passing Crowd looks down as well
  21. Snoozefest so far. Seeing cook win that heat says it all about how much of a gaters paradise this is Doyles got to go for that
