Sidney the robin

That is why i liked that system to be honest the underdog had a chance now we dont see that so much even Woffinden after his debut series never had to qualify he got a wildcard.The Series has been good and taken the sport forward but for me i prefered the old system exciting and i maintain it was harder to win a one off meeting than the Marathon percentage series is.Saying that both format's need different qualities from a rider to win them.

I personally could not care less about the rules and team building to be honest skidder 1, i have given up on that going back to Wozniak it would be great to see him ride again in the UK.

I dont know anybody who hates Poole ? not even Gavan believe it or not, the Poole fans i have met have been good decent people who love there speedway always a few on bend 1/2 at the Abbey nothing like some who speak on here.

Totally agree Bruce who has had his fair share of tragedy in his life showed us a side not all of us knew about.Ok he handled his departure from speedway poorly but even after speedway i have enjoyed him as a commentator and to be honest he is a modest and humble guy and what a rider he was.But Bruce, Siggy,Ron,Bobby ect) showed us on those videos how much Kelly meant to them and that is what friendship is all about through thick and thin really moving at times.

Yes Thanks" BOBBATH "a bit like Jim Airey i remember him saying after the 1971 WF he would never be a World Champion he then called it a day in Britain and how good was Jim Airey not bad eh !!!

For me he actually disappointed for the Wolves i actually worked with someone who had been a mechanic for Musielak in Poland and he told me he had real ability.A bit like Wozniak ( another classy rider) never quite mastered Britain but now Musielak looks at home at Swindon.To be fair i remember alot of the Wolves fans who had liked Tobiasz they knew he was a good rider and his away performances were pretty good.Going back to last year fair play to Rossiter i did not here two many people mention Musielak as a potential signing.

1965 was a vintage year some real tough meeting's in the World Championship what did strike me was when you mentioned Gordon Guasco.Four Australian's all lost there lives over a five year Period, Gordon,Peter Bradshaw,Jack Biggs,Geoff Curtis.

Dont agree with that Frigbo..

Very harsh that Danny i am a speedway fan and there are some really good people on the forum who really care about the sport.Also dont believe all the speedway family who say they dont read the forum as it means nothing believe me they do.

Can remember Kelly riding in a test match at Wimbledon in 83 he had been inactive and was rusty also i think he was on borrowed aquipment.But to see him ride made me realise how big a loss for british speedway he was when he wasn't riding over here.

I remember the Swindon V Hulll meeting very well Steve 39/39 all Kilby 14. Sigalos 15 full max from the number 6 berth ( never met Kilb) Kelly got paid 11 Holloway 4 all were third places.It was a very wet meeting indeed similar to the Mike Keen meeting where DAG got 15 another strange thing was Siggy had got his max by heat 9 no Joe Owen he did not arrive. Maybe i was doing Cookie a disservice he reached two World Final's and was a National Champion as well a real racer.In 1980 he averaged only 4.17 but in 81 he added another 4.5 points on his average some doing that.

Cant have Cook anywhere near the Shoey Bros both of them in there prime would Gobble Cook up.

Kelly for me Siggy what a class act he was total class what do you think lris.? respect your opinion alot we dont agree all the time but i respect you.

Kurtz showed in the PLRC at Belle Vue that his problem is consistency one race beats Doyle by a mile then struggles in races with the likes of Lawson.Fricke for me is a class act a superb stylist Adams esc) i believe he will be a GP rider in the future.

Out of ten races Nick would come out on top a tougher rider and he can mix it with anyone.I am a big fan of Kurtz classy a different rider to Morris saying all that i rate Fricke higher than both of them.

I saw Kelly at Sheffield a few times and he was nearly unbeatable a great team rider Kelly and Shawn awesome together.At that time Sheffield had a great side to watch.Shawn!Kelly,Pete Carr,Sean the prawn Wilson great times.

Was watching some old DVDS the other night and had forgot just how good Kelly Moran was what a talent.In my lifetime talent wise he would be up there with Mike Lee and Darcy Ward for sheer natural ability.Really enjoyed watching Kelly ride a pleasure really a fun guy who always had a smile on his face wondered what memories others on the forum have of Kelly.

I dont know what you think "A ARLOV " but Morris is at least at the level of Kurtz i like and rate both riders i would say Nick is in front at the moment just..At Swindon at home Morris has been pretty consistent for a while now can he kick on hope so going back to Kurtz i rate him Morris and Kurtz have it all to play for in 2018.

Arthur finished at Coventry he was very young when he retired aged 26/? ?? he was an exciting rider imagine he was a great sight at Odsal and The Shay.Was just checking some scores and filling in a programme from Southampton 1961 WCSemi Final round some line up Craven ,How ,Maidment,Jack Young,Broadbanks, Waterman,Chum Taylor,N.Boocock .Can you remember the meeting "BOBBATH" ? How 15 won it from Craven 14 Maidment 13. you dont get meeting's like those anymore do you.😜

Dont know what the fascination is with Jonasson he is not cheap either he looked unfit as well last year i for one would not want him.

I recon Auty is certainly better than Lawson around Belle Vue and myself am not keen on Hougaard or Bjerre.

Did you ever see Arthur Forrest ride "BOBBATH"?

How do think Smektala and Kubera would fare in the UK " ??INCOGNITO" both are exciting prospects.

It has never really bothered me i even read the post's Gordon but god he is on every thread every team often speaking to himself.????😀

Honestly cant you give us all a break you are on every thread with your fantasy teams and drivel go and use your left hand or something.😜
