  1. I remember a meeting v Leicester running along smoothly until the rain started in Heat nine 3 of the riders came to the tapes for Heat 10 to get a result it wouldn't have ideal but it would have had Leicester come back for a re-run. Who was it still sitting in the pits No other but another whinging Aussie Mr Doyle.
  2. Could be done if the first race start at 7.30 Pit marshall having the riders ready to go out as soon as the last race finished the referee stopping '' Gardening"" etc at the tapes by warning the riders once and excluding them the next time and telling the riders before the meeting starts what he/she will do sounds harsh but it will get the meetings over in good time.
  3. When do you have to return to the "NUT HOUSE" your ieave must surely be up?
  4. What a pity that Robert is not 100% then we might have been winning some of the last few matches. but you have to admire the boy who should be resting He has been keen to not let the team down A big thank you for that.
  5. The amount of time that Holder has been riding HE must have known that you can't leave a meeting UNLESS you are Ill or injured. this surly is the case in both Sweden and Poland.
  6. Watching Lewis Kerr last night made me think that he must have thought that he would have had better seasons since leaving in 2015 if he could have stayed. also did you notice that his handlebar cover said ADRIAN FLUX ARENA. Must be his main sponcer.
  7. It was up to Leicester to cancel this Match?? when it was known that most of the Lynn riders couldn't take part because they had to ride for their Championship side They saw a chance to get a 3 points win. bugger the supporters. Also if you were at Lynn on Wednesday you would have seen it was a much different Robert Lambert He should not have ridden as he was in great pain due to his `falls of late.
  8. Don't know what has gone wrong with some of the Aussie riders I remember when Lynn had a team which included 5 or them (2000) and that was the best year we have had in the top league. At the same time i seem to remember that Jason Crump in some Quarters was nicknamed The Ginger Whinger But he never let us down.
  9. Swindon are the In-Form team now because they made a good move in getting a rider that is getting lots more points than the one who he replaced There good luck it could have gone the other way
  10. The track at Lynn last night has been better and it suited Swindon being slick dry and dusty what it needed was being watered But who would have done this as rain looked like coming down every minute. What helped Swindon was their top scorer who replaced a much weaker rider and good luck to them they made a wise choice. they have 5 heat leaders now.
  11. I am sure that when we went to Poole a few weeks ago and thrashed them fans we very happy Then look what happened just 24hrs later
  12. you can be sure that when Batchelor and Holder ride again in this country they would have learned What not to do if they havent then they must be fools
  13. Buster is only the Chairman of the B.S.P.A. Im sure That he must have the concent of ALL the other members before making major rulings concerning Speedway all except K/L (even then he must stay within the rulles)
  14. Never mind the PlayOffs Lynn will be lucky to finish bottom of the league. They have won all the marches that they will win both home and away this year...... I hope i am wrong. But its the way it looks
  15. I have not seen anything Official that Holder wanted to return to Poole I have seen Nothing about Batchelor wanting to go to Swindon. I have seen Nothing about Poole or Swindon wanting either back with them. All i have seen is some (so called) supporter putting 4 and 5 together and making themselves believe it makes 15.
  16. As Hazza has said he should come and explain his reason for pulling out of the meeting.and also say sorry to the supporters who have mostly (up to last week) supported his efforts to get back his form.
  17. I doubt whether Holder would come all the way from the South Coast just to stand in the pits at K/L.
  18. One of the reasons for last night result was the reserves the match score minus both teams reserves was 40 39 thats what we must try to improve on but how.?? See that Somerset are to release Palm Toff with the return of Hougaard I wonder?????
  19. Think Porsing could come in at Reserve which COULD be good move. also does Jorgensen have to leave if he wants to carry on.I for one would like him to stay
  20. The No 7 at lynn was shared by Bailey then Lambert then Ayres The first two are back now can we now use Ayres. Also have you anyone in mind to sign who is available and would be good enough.
  21. IF Last weeks match Is anything to go by The Track won't be able to cope with a little rain. The track finished by having nothing on the inside and several inches deep on the outside Think the trackman went home at the start.
  22. Dont know whether you can replace a foreign guest rider for a British reserve ??
  23. A lot to with the poor crowds is the lack of meetings. Years ago you Knew that Every week it was on. now you can go weeks before the next Im sure the answer is One League Spit into Two (North/South) Never mind the Top G/P stars (the few that are left) Lets go back to Weekly Speedway.
  24. If the referee was unaware that there was unrest in the pits then he wasn't in charge of the meeting like he should have been
  25. If K/L release both Holder and Batchelor they would be down to only 4 riders doubt they would be able to use guests or R/R for the rest of the season
