  1. The problem I find with carpet cleaners forums is whenever there is an important issue to discuss, it gets swept under the.... Well, you know the rest!
  2. Don't usually watch much Swedish speedway but I thoroughly enjoyed that. Great racing on a great racetrack and a good old six points down tac/sub!
  3. Some people really have too much time on their hands.
  4. Maybe he felt like Rickardsson for a few seconds!
  5. Bomber has never let GB down in the world cup, he is clearly our second best rider with Scott out of the equation. To suggest he shouldn't be picked is ludicrous.
  6. Damn right! He should have a place for life and pick of the start tarts.
  7. I agree that Eddie scored more points than Zenon in the British League but Zenon was so much more exciting to watch. He was more of a Gollob type of rider whereas Eddie was more Hampel, although I'm probably a bit bias!
  8. His equipment was certainly good when he re-signed for Hackney in 79. He lowered the track record a few times and I remember him taking Ole Olsen from behind (an almost impossible task) twice one night, and of course he was runner up in the world final that year. The clear second best Pole behind Tomasz in my opinion.

    My earliest speedway memory is of a rider in yellow leathers flying from the tapes. He was practically unbeatable during that 74 season.
  10. R.I.P Simmo. Although he was past his best when he rode for Hackney in 1987, he could still beat the best riders of the day if he was in the mood.
  11. Good old Finn, always being accused of having an oversized engine but never proved! I remember the night Ole Olsen fenced Bo Petersen with Bo running back to the pits like a madman before being stopped by a wall of trackstaff. They were never the best of friends and I'm sure Ole had a hand in Bo being suspended for a while for turning up late for practice for a meeting at Vojens.
  12. He loved a good punch-up old Andy! I remember Louis Carr and Gary Tagg having an on-track altercation and Andy comes charging out the pits fists flying. Before you knew it there were track staff,pits crew and various riders(I think Thommo was one of them,) having a massive rumble on the third bend!
  13. Best wishes to Malcolm, he made riding speedway look so easy with his silky style.
  14. I had an in-play fiver on KK at 9/1, thought I might get some compensation when he led the final. Not fast enough.
  15. Just beginning to. Think I'll stick to 50p each way in future!
  16. It must be wonderful to be as perfect as you.
