I think King's Lynn without Puk are still weak at reserve Proctor for me is the one that hinders the team building of this team.I might be proved wrong but i will be very surprised if Proctor reaches the same average again.
-
I will say Webby people have piped up a lot to be honest i feel Lynn with Lambert/Puk would of had a great spearhead anyway good luck enjoy your racing.
-
It is very strange Bagpuss, it is like opening a new restaurant but not telling anyone the menu.!!! I thought maybe they could of been frightened of announcing that Puk was not doing this season.A real shame as that top two is a very potent one and i feel Puk would of been on it this year..
-
To be honest that even makes it more laughable.
-
No Niels though who would of been fitter and would of made a great spearhead with Robert.
-
The stadium issue as you know is well out of Swindon speedway's management hands.We all believed the stadium would happen but i am just pleased the club is still operating.
-
Was that side worth waiting for.?
-
New Cross i wondered what sort of track was it? i know it was small but was it fast or technical.?Crayford is the smallest track i have been to and being a big Briggo fan i have always wondered how he got around New Cross so well even though it was not one of his better tracks.

You look at the way your club is run by Mr Ford he is a modern promoter he does consider the fans because he knows they are his bread/ butter.. Without the fans he has nothing,what disappoint's me is that i still feel with everyone pulling together in the same direction the sport can get through this tough period.But it feels like the fan does not have a voice and are invisable gutting really because the sport we all love can still be exciting.It is a good job us Brits are not like the Germans because when they are unhappy they show it by there feet by not turning up.

We have a track we have a team that was put in place by December and touch wood the season will commence at the Abbey.At King's Lynn well what a total shambles supporters ( the paying customer) taken for granted kept in the lurch and the worrying thing is it is run by the frontman of British speedway.By the way King's Lynn are a great club with loyal supporters who will stick by the club but for me they deserve alot better.
-
Embarrassing makes the club look Micky Mouse.

A really good gater and particularly good at home away in the top 5 will be difficult for him be interesting to see how he copes.But you really have to admire Lewis what character and dedication he must have to comeback from those horrendous crashes good luck to him.

I lost alot of interest in Speedway from 1990 until 96 Ove, i still went to the Abbey everyweek but was not enjoying it.Then Tomasz and Jason Crump come on the scene and both revived my interest in the sport such a shame what has happened to him and i pray this new treatment he is having works for him.

Remember seeing Mark as a mascot and then like Tatum,Screen,Doncaster thrown straight in the deep end.I think when he dropped down a league his career changed that then set him on a upwards spiral in way he reminded me of Peter Collins his gating not the best busting a gut often coming from the back.
-
Erik and Tommy had there successe's against Nielsen at Cowley Blackbird/!Thorp/ Doncaster won the odd race here and there otherwise Hans took the p..., great rider no doubt a great advert for speedway as well.
-
Did you ever think Gavan Mark would be a world champ? when you have a affinity with a rider it is special .I did with a lower/ Lesser rider but when they do well it is great Loram god he was exciting to watch he put bums on seats.
-
Or Ole in 1982 Vetlanda with Bo/Erik.
-
Nothing beats Wembley for me the atmosphere was electric looking back you are right Vince some of the racing was bang average.The dusty 1975 final was a farce but Olsen was majestic on the night .And the 81 Penhall final was pretty good Len Silver did produce a good track that night Knudsen was classy come of age that night.
-
Nilsen rode a perfect race Steve but was just outwitted, Gollob was a special talent.
-
I think the fans reaction really shook Bruce up after that race Sam.Was it cheating or was it gamesmanship who knows i really liked White City but it was sometimes slick though.
-
A race you should be remember??? The overseas Final Hyde Rd 1983 Andy Grahame, S.Moran, Lee, Phil Collins a great race Phil Collins deservedly ended up winning the meeting.
-
I have always wanted the 1983 BLRC on dvd i dont think it was televised .Lee got a duck egg first time out got filled in then ended up taking Hans to the cleaners and getting second behind Erik a great meeting.
-
1999 Gollob v Nilsen what a race, how Gollob avoided going through the fence on the last two bends god knows.
-
Died in 1982 Steve handy rider.
-
Did Briggo leave a gap Vince ?? or was Bernie to hard?? and what does your gut feeling tell you would Briggo of gone on and been World champ in 1972.?
