He doesn't seem to grasp the idea that success on the track (or at least giving supporters some hope) might just equate to higher attendances. The league is supposed to be a competition but a team with one heat leader is never going to compete with some that have three or even four.

But they HAVE just cause! B Havelock.

True. People are basing their agreement assumptions on other countries who were never in the EU. They don't want to lose our business, no matter what. Well the Czechs have already indicated that they would want to leave if we did and some of the Eastern countries don't wish to take immigrants from outside, so that bubble is likely to burst as well. The states in America have more independence than we do.

If we leave the EU it'll collapse, that's why they are begging us to stay. They foolishly rushed to allow lots of former iron curtain countries in and they are contributing nothing, they desperately need our money. It wont make much difference to riders, other than the need for Aussie style visas.

You are obviously perfect. By the way, it's they're, not 'there.'

No need for the clever remarks, If I'm mistaken then fair enough. By the way, I have NEVER ever written a post denouncing promoters.

Glasgow claim that some of the top riders would be in Poland on a Sunday, but aren't the 'top' riders usually seeded to the final anyway, or have the rules been changed?

You neglect to mention that it was five years ago. I remember Peter Prinsloo as well.

Probably those four, you can never dismiss Garrity either.

A different opinion.... http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/index.html

On the other hand, Bridger has had more retirements than the household cavalry and has probably made as many enemies. It would be nice if he has finally grown up and actually shows the talent that he once promised, someone riding round at the back waving both legs about, tends to get a bit tedious after a while.

That certainly puts a downer on it and it sounds like you were there, it would be interesting to hear the views of some of the riders.

It depends who is best THIS YEAR and who is best on the new track.

All well and good, let's hope he doesn't **** on those who help him .... Again!

I believe there was some difference. Didn't Lee decide to retire from the GB squad, while Scott withheld his services due to a dispute over the display of sponsors logos on the national racesuit? Anyway Lee might have changed his mind it's true, but unfortunately he can't.

We are already at the farce stage, with R Worrall saying he's after a WC team place and the fat controller fast tracking the potentially disruptive Bridger back into the squad and inviting him to the training camp. Hadn't Richardson withdrawn from the GB squad?

Only the one, but the last thing you need is someone with a bad attitude to disrupt the rest.

I notice Rosco is creaming his pants about him and has included him in the GB squad. All he ever proved before, was that he wasn't really good enough, has some miracle happened, one wonders?

Until he takes it upon himself to do a runner.

I would make him qualify, he chose to walk away.

You mean, you actually hoped for a basement side?

If they use Bridger he might get them a ballet award or the most retired rider in history award. They'll be vying with Lions and Wolves for the cherished spoon.

Why bother, they are unlikely to take on board any points raised. An idea for the interval entertainment could be Matej Kus strapped between two bikes (one black and white, one red and white) and then ripped to pieces while certain promoters look away and study their fingernails.

"Was you born stupid" Hmm.

Hopefully! More likely they will be the hopeless cases that Rosco always shortlists anyway.
