Interesting track choice, i never got to view ther but got a few programmes!

Very interesting link

Yes, only time will tell

I believe Ward in 20 years time will have many titles to his name!

What has Ward achieved, 2X World under 21 champion, won a GP & yet to finish a season in the GPs. So hardly not a bad record is it!!

Come on Gustix, yor are very knowledgable on speedway. Get a Olsen thread going, that would excit me!!

Yes, what a fab track Hyde Road. Did you ever go to Coatbridge ?

Yep, never was the same rider after his prestatyn accident

Yes have to agree, fond memories at Plough Lane

Never got to New Cross, started watching speedway at Wolverhampton in the late 60s

I have to be honest with you Norbold, dont know that much about Farndon. I started going to Wolverhampton in the late 60s. Norman Hunter was my hero then! When Olsen came to wolves was amazing, The epic races between Olsen & Mauger around Monmore were memorable.

Got my VIP tickets £100. Still no mention of a call girl being thrown in at that price!!!

For me the most professional rider of ALL times was Mauger

Would like to hear other comments on best ever track, I know we have had the classic's like Hyde Road, County Ground and The Shay. But for me I would have to say Coatbridge!

Very Well said, one of the best posts on this forum.

Yep i think Batch will make the top 8. ps good to see you back Sidney

I am absolutely amazed with the statement saying ultimately the only person who can help Ward is himself. It is crystal clear with whats happened is his passed that it is totally obvious that Ward need guidance and help, I would have thought a person of your calibre could see that, but I am obviously wrong. So to reiterate my previous post, is why I said if I was Ward I would love Adams to be part of my team. Can you name anyone better than Adams in that role!!! You are spot on IMO in your post

For me i would have to say Olsen in the 70s

Second string ? what was his EL average last year!!!!

I poisoned cup? kindly explain your comments

You still havent answered my question!!

Even if he was total crap as you put it, name me a brit & i hate to say it, who would be better!

Okay I will ask you one simple question, do you think in GP's we should be seeing the best riders in the world. If so in that case we have to include Ward, Sayfutdinov, and Laguta, just answer me yes or no!!

I am gutted with Bridger's latest actions, I have been a massive Bridger fan over the years, I know I am going to get slated, but on his day Bridger IMO is as good as anyone. If only he could sort himself out, even at the age he is now he still has a lot to offer.

I think you guys should be applauded for all the hard work that goes on behind the scenes.
