  2. Holy lambert leathers FFS the meet hasn't even bleeding started and yet all the knives are out. Its in italy its on tv get over it and have a good fume and moan after. Me ill be watching it with wife ,5 friends and the pooch. Plenty of cakes ,wine and chocolate and speedway on the box nothing to complain about. I M O.
  3. Brilliant post by MOXEY well done sir ,agree with all that what a shame that them above either don't listen or don't care too.
  4. Can someone please clarify one thing please. Are the rules/laws much different Now than say in 1977 when I first started going. I was 15 then with raging hormones ,wide flares and no brain and yet It was all so simple (or was it?) Maybe time has clouded my memory.
  5. Rules laws whatever they are called they are too complicated ,change every year and let's face it don't need to be. I reckon anyone with an ounce of common sense could set out some let's say LAWS that even a child could understand at the moment you need to be either a professor of speedway rules or just a professor. I am neither of these I am just a fan of 41 yrs who has watched the sport slowly disappearing up its own over regulated silencer.
  6. There you go it must be me then. Everything is fine the rules are really simple and nothing needs to change. Let's all be honest the way the rules are manipulated every year to suit a team makes a mockery of the sport. IMO
  7. Just reading the posts from various fans from teams am I the only one who finds the rules totally baffling and to be honest left feeling I don't really care. Its all complete made up garbage and has made this basic sport totally unfathomable. And does anyone apart from me think its bizarre how fans seem to go along with it all and SEEM to understand it. I am a fairly intelligent man of 51 who even understands the off side rule in football ,but league speedway rules are plop. IMO
  8. Various 10cc songs ,gerry rafferty baker street andrew gold never let her slip away. Ahh those were the days walking from my house in gigantic flares and platforms 2 miles to watch bristol bulldogs at eastville.
  9. Strange why people on this forum moan and snipe at sky and eurosports coverage. Personally I am just glad its on and if the moaning gits don't like the commentary then just turn the sound off.
  10. Crikey nicholls is very good I can see how he smooth talked sophie now . Helmet cam best yet is it because its a bright sunny day ? Eurosport deserve a pat on the back for showing this.
  11. Well what a nice surprise I didn't know this was on especially with a monsoon outside in sometimes sunny bristol. Well done eurosport and thankyou. Would sky show this errrrrr NO. Ps. Nicholls is good and funny.
  12. Seems to me this is like the england footie team blame the manager not the players sack the manager and everything will be great umm no not really. Let's be honest the truth is we are not very good. Why ? Ask the polish I have no idea
  13. HAVELOCK as team manager !!!!!??? The stephen hawking of speedway the team would need an interpreter and someone with a large stick to keep him and the team awake. How about Keith Heuwen !!!!! Or the fill in bloke on eurosport.
  14. <masked swearing/unacceptable language removed> Let's just start again how did we get in this mess our sport is so simple really an yet every year we make up new complicated rules. Let's scrap everything and start again. 4 riders per race over 4 laps. There that's a start.
  15. Keith heuwen and his wig are bloody terrible ,steven hawking or lester piggot could do a better job.
  16. Eurosports coverage is better than sky. We see all the meeting instead of a studio with Heuwen (bloody awful) havelock (duhhhh) and ermolenko (pants).
  17. The voice over guy on eurosport is I admit no harry hill BUT I am growing to like all his george bush language foul ups. That's IMO by the way.
  18. IMO zagar was right to of been excluded. I want to see passing not riders attempting to turn right or left just to block an opponent like pedersen does. Just my opinion.
  19. Professor Brian cox looked at the post re the rules and announced that they were more complex than the theory of quantum mechanics.
  20. Prices for cardiff are not a rip off. £29 for a great seat and a great venue.
  21. Let's be honest the Sky elite league is pants and has been going down hill for some time ,I really hope there is a USA GP. The future of league racing in this country is at a crossroads I can't see any GP riders in the league next year but they may be the best solution.
  22. How to attract kids ? EASY. No charge for under 18 s. Give them something to fill out a free scoresheet. Make the riders and pit areas more accesible to kids. Why don't kids go because I can't afford to take them that's why. First ever speedway meeting I ever went to at eastville as a 14 year old I had a free programme and met Phil(god)crump. I never looked back it was magic. Can't remember how much it was to get in then but It can't of been that much as my pocket money paid for entry and a programme.
  23. It was a great GP and the track was good ,passing in almost every race not sure what else you would like.
  24. Ok if eurosports only input is the baldrick after ads bloke then its bloody awful BUT as its on eurosport and thank the lord for that that's worth 10/10. Well done world feed,bsi,havelock,phil bass ,henny kroeze or whoever is putting on the show its great.
  25. THE KNOW. Sorry but it was a superb GP in a fantastic stadium and the track produced very exciting racing unless of course your comments are a wind up.
