I enjoyed the visit to Grindsted last week to see a 47 - 40 victory over Vojens. I've not seen such a black looking racing surface for many a year. Good to see Elite leaguers Eddie Kennett, Adam Skornicki and Henning Bager riding in a different league.

Nordic Gp, Vojens 29-08-2009
WembleyLion replied to Peter S.'s topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
There is a Danish League fixture at Grinsted (vs Vojens) on Friday. On Sunday the only meeting I am aware of is the 80cc Junior Championships at Korskro (Esbjerg). -
Just booked my family tickets for the second bend. Seemed a lot easier this year as in previous years I've only been able to get so far before being told to phone the ticketing agent!

Lee Richardson is continuing to do his chances no harm! -
Swc Event 2, Peterborough 13.7.
WembleyLion replied to tomazpozrl's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
...and what about that super Haggis who rode for the Wembley Lions back in 1970/71 - one of my first idols! -
Andersen Crash In Sweden.
WembleyLion replied to From PC to KC.'s topic in International World of Speedway
It looked very nasty from what I could see - unfortunately the live stream was freezing quite a bit tonight for some reason. Although I couldn't understand any of the commentary, which was in Polish, it was clear that Hans was able to walk, unaided, back to the pits. Hopefully nothing more than a bit shaken up. -
Nicholls V Sayfutdinov
WembleyLion replied to Cornishman's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I think I'm lucky too - my daughters have had photos taken with Scott and got autographs on dozens of occasions and he is always very friendly, but there again I cannot recall ever having had a bad experience with any rider. -
Swedish Elitserien Round 10
WembleyLion replied to Anders's topic in International World of Speedway
I would like to endorse that - I always look forward to reading your previews and round ups each week Anders - thank you very much. -

WembleyLion replied to racers and royals's topic in International World of Speedway
Thanks too from me r&r. I'm getting quite a fan of watching these meetings whilst having my tea on a Tuesday! -

Surely Vaculik hasn't done a Holta! -
Nicholls V Sayfutdinov
WembleyLion replied to Cornishman's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I've no problem over Scott and Emil - it was heat of the moment stuff which they later regretted and apologised for. These things happen. However, the actions of Ashley Holloway is a different matter altogether and needs addressing. -
Nicholls V Sayfutdinov
WembleyLion replied to Cornishman's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Any news on the sanctions that must surely be taken against Holloway? -
Just back home and I would like to say well done Jason who was terrific. Hard luck to Bomber, on another day or if he had not been at the back, Hans might not have fallen. Whilst not condoning the actions of Scott I have been thinking for sometime now that sooner or later someone was going to lamp Sayfutdinov. I didn't actually realise how unpopular he (Sayfutdinov) is until attending the Copenhagen and Cardiff GP's. As for Ashley Holloway surely he must be banned from entering the pits area in future.
-
Yes he certainly looked better last night. It was my first visit to Copenhagen and although the racing might have been better I enjoyed being at Parken. Copenhagen is a most enjoyable place to visit for the weekend and it was also nice to see so many other fans travelling out yesterday and coming back this evening.

Bolek Proch!

Remember hearing the news on the local radio - LBC - very sad. R.I.P Tommy

Preview For The Swedish 2009 Season.
WembleyLion replied to Ghostwalker's topic in International World of Speedway
The fixtures are on Griparna's website - www.griparna.nu -
Linlithgow for me - the only UK track that has staged league racing in the last 30 years that I missed out on visiting. The previous miss was Coatbridge. Also Landshut in Germany as I have been there (29 years ago) and it was postponed. Still a chance of getting back there though! Being either London/South East based since I started watching Speedway I'm sorry to have missed out on West Ham, Rayleigh, Romford and Reading Tilehurst.
-
I think Scott will be back simply because he is the best GP rider outside the top eight. He should be in it regardless of nationality. As for the rest like many of you I would be inclined to give Lindgren another go and bring in some new blood in Emil and Noddy.

I think it's August 1st for Prague. Should find out for sure soon though! -
Chris Harris And Scott Nicholls

Possibly Ellesmere Port because of the football pitch, but I'm not really sure as I only went there a few times and that was a long time ago.

Just finishing packing our bags and then we're off to Stansted for an overnight stop (well a few hours kip) before joining the Travel Plus Tour tomorrow am. Might also get Ipswich v Wolves in if the weather is kind to us. Really looking forward to it and to all those travelling out I hope you all have a safe journey and a great time in Prague.
