If it does go ahead. IOW by 20 points

Two good things to come out of this.... 1, As he's moaning so much, one can assume "Jackass" won't be attending. 2, As he won't be going one can also assume we won't have to put up with his constant bitching on here !! RESULT !!!!! Or we can assume he's just a sad no life troll. In my limited time here u don't think I've ever come across a bigger fun Hoover. How the hell do you get out if bed in the morning ?

With you there. As its Adam's first year my meetings have been mostly national/premier standard and to me it's good honest "bang and crash" racing. Everyone putting all they've got into it. My limited experience of elite,( both live and on sky) all seems to be a bit " gate & go". I understand that like Moto GP it is the pinnacle of the sport but unlike Moto GP it's all rules and backstabbing, with everyone poring over an over complicated rule book in what is basically a very simple sport to try and get one over at any cost. As good as our youngsters are they're humbled by the poles etc whenever they compete on the world stage as uk promotors can't see the big picture and then bemoan the fact that there's no good Brits while at the same time pushing them aside to sign another foreigner. Rant over

Why is Adam Ellis's average ridiculously low ?? His first ever competitive meeting was in July last year ?

What do you base that on ?

The island seem to be screaming through their meetings this year, all team members scoring and new signing Tom Young seems to be fitting in well yet there seems to be not a lot said about them on here. So.... Here's an Isle of Wight speedway thread ! Well done guys.

Anyone at the track. The updates site stopped after 3 heats ?

He was helping Adam and Matt Read after their overnight drive from Lonigo. Nice guy, he didn't have to .

Half hour for two heats ? How bad is the track ?

Hope it's not off adam has driven overnight from lonigo in Italy. Including only having 4 gears on his van since Munich !

Heh. I know what you mean about Italy. I had Simon cross call me today and say that it always has been a gaters paradise

Adam will be there. Lonigo should finish around midnight and its a long overnight drive back . One bike needs to be straightened out after a big off here in France last night. ( if you follow him in twitter check out his wrecked crash helmet) front end bent, wheel wrecked, one new silencer trashed and a very sore Adam.

Spoiled by dust ???? I think we were at different meetings, I didn't see any dust.

Branford may have felt hard done by but made no attempt to get off the track at all, maybe his refusal to budge had some bearing on the refs decision. Also shouting in the pits afterwards that if he was going to get excluded for that next time he'll just "ride straight through the c**t" may not be the cleverest thing to do as they are both young riders who may be riding together for Great Britain in years to come All in all a good day and congratulations must go to the Ipswich track staff for preparing a very good racing surface that had riders passing all over the place.

Does this mean jackal won't be going ?

Riders with much more experience than him screwed up that day. Read the reports on the individual meetings thread. That meeting should never have gone ahead

Us IOW fans are hoping for a lot of that this season

Sort of "If you don't like it we'll take our ball away " Get over it. You won, sheesh

oops! Well done the Islanders, great team effort. Let's hope there's lots more to come.

Michael Neale, 16 is replacing Byron Bekker for today's match. Bringing the average age of the team down to 19. Is this a record ?

I wasn't doing the "dad" bit. Just pointing out maybe what the previous poster may have meant. I won't post any more just bow to your superior knowledge. Maybe you could offer him your expert advice on where it went wrong then ?

Maybe he meant he's a 17 year old kid with only half a dozen premier league meetings under his belt and has never even seen the track before ? I see the doom merchants are starting already

I was hoping the updates sight would give us an idea of the meeting other than the score but the comments are about as useful as a cock flavoured lollipop Edit..... coke flavoured

Why. What were they supposed to do ? Slow down and wait for you guys to catch up ???

Doh!! Empty post. Adams were built and are maintained by Matt Read. He and his wife Claire have been an awesome help from the end of last year.
