Terry

That was easy enough. At least we'll get some decent competition in the final

Will Lemon play the joker

Oh no, not the old bird! Where's Natalie? Edit; Phew, she's here

I feel the complete opposite. A glimmer of hope for us

He'll retire way before then imo.

Woffinden shouldn't be considered, or Nicholls for that matter. You can't just pick and choose when you want to ride for your country, it should be all or nothing. Britain should do what Denmark did some years back and go with the youngsters, (Cook and Harris-if he's on form, excepted.) Bewley could be ready in a year or two, and with natural progression from Lambert and S Worrall, Woffinden could be just a fading memory in a few years time.

Same here. I was about to add my Wimbledon v Hackney memories, (Galvin 'organising' a 5-0, the '88 cup final, Terry Heath's 'white knuckle ride' coach trip) thinking "Damn, others have beaten me to it today." Then I realised they had beat me by 13 years!

Billy Janniro-7 times National Champion..surely that makes him one of the greatest Whatever happened to Chris Manchester? He was pretty decent as I recall, then he just seemed to disappear.

Ila was always a popular visitor to Waterden Road. He was Finland's number 1 for a long time before Niemi came along. RIP

Poland could drop their gp stars and go with; Hampel, Protasiewicz, Pr Pawlicki and Kolodziej and still more than likely win. There's a scary thought

The only good thing to come out of tonight for me was seeing young Bewley for the first time. The lad looks a real talent with a great riding style. It took me back in time 30 years to another talented youngster in his first season-Mark Loram. Let's hope Dan can achieve what Mark did.

As long as Nicholls ain't there, I couldn't give a shiny one. All the lads in the line-up want to ride for England, so that's good enough for me. As long as they give it a go and enjoy themselves, who the hell cares.

These riders may be legends in your eyes, but to me they're just names. Obviously from what I've read about them they were great riders, but having never seen them how could I compare them to riders I have seen?

Seeing is believing.. not reading.

Top 5 Tony Rickardsson Hans Nielsen Ivan Mauger Jason Crump Greg Hancock Favourite 5 Barry Thomas Zenon Plech Mark Loram Andy Galvin Alan Mogridge

Jiri Stancl - won umpteen national titles Toni Kasper - ex Hackney, nuff said Vaclav Verner - Exeter legend Lukas Dryml - gp leader briefly in 2003 Vaclav Milik - could be the best of the lot I always think of Stancl, Dryml (senior), Ondrasik, Verner etc.. as the riders filling the bottom 5 places in 70's/80's world finals!

What are you talking about? The guy's got 3 metal plates and 14 screws in his foot, and you expect him to be skipping around the pits with no crutches! I think your hatred of Doyle is blinding you of the fact that he's the most determined rider on the circuit, who will hopefully end the year as world champion.

And Rye House, where he broke his leg during his own testimonial meeting..Poor old Hughie

Great win for Magic..Doyley a hero...Brilliant gp..Roll on Cardiff

Wow, brilliant from Magic and Freddie!

Track looks good

Had to put a few quid on Lindback at 50's. He did well there last year.

Michael Fitzpatrick..Hackney junior in the 80's. Whether he won or came last he always did a couple of laps of honour!
