  1. Think you need to reassess your thoughts on distance from Scunthorpe to Redcar and time to get there on a Friday evening
  2. Why?? If, and it is a big IF, the speculation was that meetings were called off as riders were not available and no facility to replace them was allowed, then rearranging on a date when a facility is allowed for an absentee is just adding to the conspiracy theorists not putting it to bed!!
  3. It would have to be after heat 10, regardless of whether Redcar Edinburgh couldn't win or not!!
  4. But they aren't all available for trip to Newcastle
  5. Come on guys - read the post and get the joke - I'm sure many others did
  6. Top marks for honesty - pity your management changes when it suits them from being the club to provide slots for young Brits to being pot hunters and lets drop any brits to get some quality foreigners in! PS are you my dyslexic friend Klaus??
  7. That's because most other promoters don't make a total balls up of constantly switching team around and then have to justify the changes !!
  8. But it will be above several of the current no 7s !
  9. Glasgow were also "done" by Bewley at redcar, but to be fair no one complained about that. It's part of the sport and he happens to be the hot guest at present. Be interesting to see his average for September and who is able to utilise him then!
  10. You should be able to click the like button again to "unlike" - if you feel so inclined (which from your comments is probably the case )
  11. Well although pleased with the win this was not a performance that inspired any confidence - Rose excellent no doubt full of confidence knowing his reserve heat was against 3 others not in his league, but he scored vital points in all his rides, Lambert - ok and robbo good guest but Kus and Worrall both trying their best to throw the match away. Sorry but I don't buy into this "he was upset with Bjerre for a hard first bend" - what does he expect and he would have done the same!! he then left Robbo nowhere to go and then to go and get thrown out is ludicrous. Worrall two blatant jumps from the gate to get excluded and then another no brainer to wipe out Busch!! Madness! Pleased to see many Diamonds fans recognize out riders were at fault for the two incidents, same as many Redcar fans acknowledge Robbo deserved to be back in, some excellent racing Busch's chase & pass in heat 8 top quality and Robbo/Anderson's battle in heat 14 tremendous trust and respect in each other. Should have won this easy, any team allowing Phillips to score 2 points in heat two are totally reliant on top order doing the business and we have (supposedly) enough to stop this! One final point re Etheridge taking a lap of honour, imo an excellent move by Bears management, after his torrid first season his confidence must be totally shot, if this can give him some back and help to get him back towards potential everyone says he has then full marks to Bjerre for letting him win and those who sent him round. ,
  12. I think the real irony is that it is not proving to be a benefit to anyone. Having said that he may well come good soon
  13. Why blame the team manager when there are others who want to tell him what to do??
  14. That's very brave of you when Peterborough have a 7 point head start. With 8 matches left each, why don't you offer the witches fans a £1000 bet on who gets the most points from those 8 matches? Or are you chicken??
  15. Had a visit to watch last night's match - Bears rode very well against possibly one of our two main opponents for honours and totally deserved win - imo hard done to by ref in majority of first bend incidents so could have won more easily. Big factor though was having young Bewley in for Payne - be interesting to see if payne is fit for sunday or who they may use?? (can guarantee it won't be rob Branford!!) We should have plenty to win fairly easily, especially if Simon Nielsen is as poor as last night. Is Lambert definitely riding, I know in the past he has taken his time to return from Team Cup matches, and I assume the 24 hour rule is still in place but then that was in the past for a different management
  16. Without knowing any of the background to how events unfolded I would pose a simple question when booking rider to guest at #7 a) had confirmation been given by "powers that be" that this was acceptable and the rider eligible, or b ) had Glasgow just assumed he was eligible if a) then I agree totally with your comment, if b ) then I think you should be pointing your frustration in a different direction (although I would say it could come back to rule(s) not being very clear!)
  17. Well done to the devils (and comets) - I'm sure most neutral fans were cheering them on in the last couple of heats
  18. Oh Dear.................................. Oh Dear................................. OH DEAR .................................... ​
  19. I don't have any problems with the changes made, and yes they are within rules and approved. I, like the majority of fans fully agree with what your promotion have done to strengthen their team. The issue I take is all those who say one month we should be allowed to make these changes because it is benefiting British speedway and then straight away (after getting their own way) drop the British rider for a foreigner ( which as I just said was the logical thing to do) As to yourself stating Arson Fire has his facts wrong and "holub did not replace Stokes" then if not deluded what??
