  1. Good move for Brady great for Plymouth and for there supporters.A vicous circle for some riders Cook Brady (ect)both ambitious but you need meetings to keep sharp ie) also meetings to earn a living a great top 2 Kurtz/Holder.
  2. You have a very good rider in Kurtz i would not worry to much.A rider who will improve in time, i believe Kurtz/J.Holder are both long term investments.I think both have quality would love to have Jack as a future rider at Swindon.
  3. Belle Vue really showed last night they are a team to be feared.I saw them at the Abbey about a month ago but there lack of racing sharpness cost them that night.Nicholls was superb Fricke S Worrall impressive and well at times Zagar oozes class at his best a pleasure to watch.Young Jacobs was the one i felt for on the pace and a couple of times he got himself in the wrong position at the wrong time.If he keeps working at it a tidy little rider there, Poole to me look vulnerable to me another change has to happen for them to win the league.Of the draft riders you have to say looking at it Garrity has done better than people have been saying.For me S.Worrall is the only other draft rider who could cope in the top 5 because his gating is excellent.Auty,Ellis,Kerr,Newman,R.Worrall Wright i like them all and i want them all to stay in the EL are not quite there as top five riders.
  4. Newman at four our sport with there pathetic rules have gone mad. I think Buck was a shoe in for double figures plus don't know about JK.
  5. Would of won a World title in my book,i have no doubt about that he would of been around racing until at least the age of 35 1976/88.My son played Football in Sweden for two years for a club in Eskilstuna and Tommy is still fondly remembered loved still pictures and books there remembering him could he of challenged PC in 1976 what a thought the sport was robbed of a nice human being and a great rider.
  6. Be an interesting match i think Belle Vue can make a match of it,i am going to be impartial and judge how good the racing is.I have heard mixed reports about how regular the racing/ entertainment value is are there some supporters who are just glory hunters who want to just win so do not worry about the quality of racing.?
  7. Pathetic these rules are killing speedway Hall might get a few scores and then get another chance at PL level.He proved what he is capable of by reaching a BF speedway needs to rip the rule book up and just go back to the basics.Is there any difference between Hall/Ellis apart from there age? Tony Atkin is he different to Hall.
  8. How do i get hold of this meeting Tony love to be able to see it could you keep us all posted.
  9. Could the new mini Somerset if built in my lifetime ?😅 be better than that rubbish dished up last night makes me wonder.The Abbey since that work on bend 2 was done has never been as good in my opinion.
  10. Still getting over how poor that meeting was last night.The worst i can remember for years,for me the result is not relevant i go for the racing but apart from Doyle v Puk in heat 13 the rest was very poor.Could i put up with that everyweek i dont think so bend Two now looks like a accident waiting to happen.Bend three/four looked like there was a few holes there Huckenbeck in his first ride was quite comfortable in second then he hit something he then lifted violently was totally out of control through no fault of his own.Just hope the Poole meeting is a better advert for the sport last night was a night to forget.
  11. A very good rider excellent riding style a mirror of Adams.Can see him getting in GPS in the next few years also seems to have a great temperament.
  12. To make a post like this shows what you have said on another thread total crap when i see you post ever again F... ou !
  13. You are so right no one reacted to Batch really did they ? saying that he rode ok.Niels / Doyley pocket money for them but god this league has problems some races a massive difference in ability.As a example a rider years ago a rider who rode at number 6 away he had the reserve race a heat six and a heat nine if he was lucky.Ok he might score 0 but tonight there was nearly two different races going on a shame really but i will stress again the track looked crap.
  14. Bloody hell this thread is strange,everyone to there own i suppose ! Joe please tell us it is April's Fool's day that you are taking the p...s out of us all put us all out of our misery.😀
  15. This meeting was poor i might be over critical but the track looked s...e to me.Niels looked good, chuffed for Sedgy but the track looked crap not a great nights racing.Also now some of these lower riders some draft riders are getting dropped by big distances between first and fourth strung out like the washing.
  16. A home win i think,but it could be a dangerous match for the Robins.Puk, Batch,Lambert, Mads, can all score points around the Abbey Wilkinson will race for everything a proper racer. Huckenbeck looks a decent rider and Lewis could chip in to with vital points important races with Nielsen in two heats looking forward to it.
  17. Going through all the records riders i would put around the same ability(era). King( has reached 10 finals incl this year,Barker 8 finals, Bridger 6 finals, Garrity 4 finals Auty 4 finals Newman has ridden in 1 as a reserve.
  18. Joe you are on the wind up right ? hope so if not i would not mind a bit of what you are on.
  19. Most of the time that you speak, get off your perch high horse listen and DEBATE saying that you have not got the humane touch for that sorry.😂
  20. Colin the 1975 final with the AshbyWilson run off in it well what a line up that was eh! saying that i enjoy watching nearly all the lads who qualified for this years BF.
  21. At Swindon i believe if the meeting is called off after a certain time they have to still pay rent ? I don't know what most people think but i am not interested in wet meetings i would rather have a early decision.Different if you have started the meeting then by all means make do and i have seen some really good meetings in the wet.
  22. I havent the time to look back on posts,but for the life of me i can never ever remember Witcher backing down and maybe saying you know what you might have a point.You eaces1 are one of the decent ones we don't always agree but your style is not to make people feel inferior which is very important in my eyes.
