Oh the irony!

Indeed it is Chris.

Doh! So having 2 or 3 Speedway Stars tucked behind the other motorcycling magazines is going to make a difference. Your point is ridiculous.

You reckon? - you obviously have no idea of how many of those 200,000 are interested in speedway - or even know about it.

You are joking? I hope you are!

Gustix being awkward? Some mistake surely ....

I doubt you or others would be saying that if it was Nicki Pedersen and not Leon Madsen pulling off that move.

I've never met Barry Bishop (I have had the displeasure of Mr Cook!) but he always comes across like a decent guy who should have more say in how British Speedway is run. I concur with Halifaxtiger.

Jon Cook has always had an inflated opinion of himself (especially in front of the TV cameras) ... but in reality he has always come across as a clown. One of many in the sport.

Never thought much of Craig Ackroyd as a referee but now his eyes are going he's going to be even worse.

I never thought I'd see a better or braver overtake than Joe Screen getting past Billy Hamill in Poland back in the 1990s ... I have now! Brilliant stuff.

You sound like a real twit ...

Once a clown, always a clown ...

So not really excellent at all.

Damn annoying hardly does it justice - and of course most of the time he got the facts and figures wrong!

Badly flawed indeed ... where were the other speedway commentators placed?!

Pot and kettle ...

We are in danger of not seeing the wood for the trees here. How on earth would Tony Steele, Jan Staechmann and Andrew Silver (quoting Incognito) turn speedway around. The sport is in a massive hole now ... and only major surgery will, in my opinion, save it. It needs a fresh broom, not three old ones! And that's no disrespect to Steele, Staechmann and Silver. It's like Peter Oakes suggesting a PR guy in the SS this week ... surely we've been there done that with PR firms etc etc and nothing has stopped the decline. Again I mean no disrespect to Peter Oakes for the suggestion - at least he is putting ideas forward. There's plenty asking all the questions but so far I haven't seen one single person with any worthwhile answers. And don't tell me transparency from the BSPA would change things ... we all know the fundamental problems go much, much deeper than things like that.

Twisted my arse.

Rising has explained before - starting each piece with a capital letter is an old journalistic habit. Most newspapers do the same. As for not quoting MacFarlane, perhaps he is one of those still insisting this fantasy series is still going to happen - and SS are trying their best not to make him look an idiot. Just a thought.

Probably one of the best pieces in SS for years ... and you think it should have been kept down to two paragraphs. I'm lost for words.

I didn't mean you ....

In your opinion ...

Yes that's a good point ... though you didn't need to diss Mrs Hancock (I don't know if you have history with her!). As women in speedway go, she's not bad at all! Colin Pratt is no Colin Firth either.

You're no oil painting yourself ...
