Nonsense.

I thought it was a bit beyond swearing but I suppose any sort of profanity is now classed as such. Anyway if people wish to complain they do have the right to.

He's a cert. unfortunately there aren't enough other 'certs' to win it (hopefully I'm wrong).

Yes, but the forum is for anyone with an interest, to express it.

One doesn't justify the other, except possibly if you're Alan Grahame.

Well I only asked a very simple question (of someone else) and I didn't quite agree with the original point about 'we should all back him.' I was really objecting to the notion that all riders are gods and beyond criticism.

Are those sponges like for like and are they free-floating and in small pieces? There probably isn't a true comparison here.

Slightly an 'over the top' reply to my question but thank you for responding.

Why give one to someone who chose to walkout on the GPs?

Should 'we' not be allowed to criticise something when 'we' feel that criticism is warranted?

Tripped over a pile of rejected engines?

Speedway can't afford to lose any more 'supporters' even though they might be adhered to an armchair. I started going to Speedway in the very early 50s, I'm the son of a pioneer rider, worked as a mechanic and sometime sponsor and travelled all over the country. These days I'm elderly, partially sighted, skint and a very long way from the nearest track. I sometimes make critical remarks, as is my right, if you don't like that, maybe I could get young Woffinden to describe where you can go? I should add that I thoroughly enjoyed the GP.

Well he didn't get a good education, he admits to having difficulty reading or writing.

In the 'Internationale' at Wimbledon, if you failed to score in two successive rides, you missed your next ride (just that one) and a reserve got a go. It added a bit of interest as well.

He can't.

He'd probably join the Aussies! Exactly! And others having done it doesn't make it acceptable.

Name your poison.

Just keep him gagged for the wooden spoon inquest interviews.

I didn't see (or hear) the interview in question or who the interviewer was but there is no excuse for using such words when you are representing your sport on the media. To be honest I get slightly frustrated with some of the daft questions in some interviews, usually from people who are simply there as eye candy, it would be better if interviews came from former riders or even current ones who aren't involved in that particular meeting.

You need an urgent eye examination.

And second in the European Grasstrack semi-final on Sunday. Yes but he IS actually in it, there aren't exactly a queue of Brits likely to get there anytime soon, other than Lambert.

You're right, I apologise. There are two wildcard places though, so it's still a possibility.

That was my thought, he looked to have a good chance of more points out of his last two rides, might get a wildcard as he's next in line.

There is some F2 racing at Scunthorpe today, they use readily available 450cc motocross engines, Yamaha make such engines, as indeed do most leading manufacturers.

I see there is to be some F2 speedway demo as well.
