  1. Ive said this a number of times,JUST BRING THE CUTTING EDGE which was speedway many years ago and let the meetings play out with controversy,raw,energy.friction which will bring the crowds back INSTEAD OF THESE BLAND LADIDA MEETINGS where no entertainment is served up at all.AT THE MOMENT EVERYONE IS TOOOOOOOO NICE !!!!! Get the pit phone back and when a rider speaks to the ref EVERYONE in the stadium can hear the conversation and even though the ref never changes his mind at least it will get the fans involved to spice the evening up.SURELY that can be done in this day and age to get the pit phone back so everyone can hear
  2. But thats the thing Len Silver DID MAKE IT WORK for about 5 seasons all be it in the lesser bottom league but he made it work under Cearns.He is on record that he made a profit for Roger.The point im trying to make is are ALL sports going to be banned at Central Park or does it take someone with fresh ideas and a fresh positive fresh approach to get any sport off the ground at central park,and once that happens other sports will follow.There is going to become a time where greyhounds need help to get the most out of the stadium.

  4. Surely there must have be people somewhere that could make this venue work or has it been looked at already that i dont know about? If so sorry to go over old ground but it looks perfect venue for someone to try!!!
  5. With hardly any characters in ANY SPORT these days Speedway needs to go back to basics and NOT FINE anyone who even thinks about causing a problem or raising his voice in an argument.Ian thomas bless him was not everyones cup of tea but did he get people talking about things in an meeting when the racing was boring he got people talking and WE NEED PEOPLE like him to bring an element of friction in a meeting.In the UK these days the riders just swan in and out of the country ,with no element of doing anything other to score whats good for them and get out again and onto the next meeting.WITH FINES making people scared to breath speedway has gone stale,bring back the telephone and make it bigger and better for the riders to talk to the ref WITHOUT the risk of being fined,we know he/she wont change their mind but it was all part of the banter at one time when the racing was rubbish at least you had that element of banter that kept everyone talking.why cant we just get back to the natural reaction of riders without the risk of being fined?
  6. Has he got an early plane to catch for Poland on sunday or is his best kit in Poland already,that was dire from him not to trouble anyone with his scoring.
  7. OK so i get everyones views that they dont mind riders mixing and having a laugh with their rivals,so when the racing isnt that good how do we make it a bit more cutting edge with a bit of spice to the meeting.The only rider in this meeting to show any zest for wanting to mix it with rivals was Josh Pickering who was busting a gut at least having a go.How do we get everyone busting a gut if its all toooooooooooo friendly?
  8. WELL!!!!! That was good!! Only PEOPLE ENJOYING!!! the meeting were the home and away riders themselves who were not at all concerned with the cameras in the pits picking them up having a jolly up between themselves!!! What a joke uk speedway has become with riders mixing with the opposition.Not in any sport in the world would teams act in this manner,ONLY IN UK SPEEDWAY.SMAMBLES
  9. Very bizarre from Batch,and Troy almost shoots himself again,because everyone knows he has top class equipment and always had and turned up with immaculate bikes ,maybe he was minus a pit crew member but even then to be given 4 rides you would have thought someone would have had a quite word in his ear about going out for his 4 ride,but that was his worst of the night.Can you imagine if this had happened in Poland what the reaction would have been?!!!
  10. WHY give Batchelor 4 RIDES when the first 3 he rode like that.What the hell is the team manager doing.
  11. For the younger fans that watch speedway today here are some photos of the 1979 INDOOR Lada classic WEMBLEY 1979!!!! Im moving house but got a bit delayed looking at these classic Mike Patrick photos i ordered at the time.!!!
  12. This final 7 riders has to be a bit of a joke surely!!! As a neutral i dont like to criticise teams normallybut i have to say apart from Sam Masters this Oxford team is going to get battered away from home and as a floating fan,when Oxford come to town i for one will not be going anywhere near their away fixtures.Just dreadful.
