  1. 100% agree with all you say above. Niels is a club legend. As Chris Holder is to Poole ...... I thought, but no, they've dropped him just like that for flipping Kasprzak, unbelievable.
  2. You have all the answers? Tell us ....
  3. No, there's potentially lots of reasons you would chose one rider over another, certainly not just because u think they are a better rider.
  4. Plenty of tickets left for the performance at Diss High School tonight starting at 7pm ....
  5. We have lots of continuity at Lynn And if it wasn't for the bloody Poles we would've had even more continuity for the coming season
  6. I think that is up to the individual ....... why doesn't Sheffield put on a meeting every year to benefit Ricky, I'm sure riders would be up for it and fans alike ....
  7. Looking forward to watching this play. Just read more about Clem Beckett and the union he started to help the young guys who were exploited by promoters in the early days of british speedway. I've never read or heard anything about Clem Beckett until now .....
  8. I have access to all the papers' back pages every day I work. Of course most of them publish results during the season, the Star has Peter Oake little piece each week but there is rarely anything else as everyone has said. Football rules the roost of course. Our local newspapers all give good coverage nevertheless as do our local BBC radio stations. Until the day that the sport grows in this country again they're the ones our promoters should have good relations with. It's the lack of World Championship news that always surprises me as I'd have thought IMG would have contacts at the tabloids etc who might wangle a bit of space for them.
  9. Did the coLours firstly change when we became the Knights in the nineties?
  10. Team riding is great, trying to help your team mate through is great, a good pass is great, follow the leader is not so great .....
  11. The club agreed the contracts, obviously their big backers didn't come up with the readies .... these clubs shouldn't be relying on sponsors to pay their riders, it should come out of gate money and a bonus if sponsors are generous?
  12. Yes because you were young, everything's new and exciting when you're young ....
  13. But why will people pay double to watch bloody football?
  14. I know, I hate the thought but ... handicapping?
  15. I think you're wrong, it wouldn't matter what music, what banter, what stadium, IF every race was excitedly anticipated by everyone in the stadium. Great speedway is the best but we don't see enough of it. I appreciate what the guys are doing out there making it look so easy with their bodies and lives on the line but it's not enough for the future, the crowds are testament to that .....
  16. I'm thinking stage manage the racing .... if there is no way of improving the racing then stage manage it.
  17. I have the answer ...... stage managing. Hate the sound of it but if it works?
  18. Yes of course they were but just to have a home and away will be good
  19. Reminds me of the old BL days of home and away against Ipswich 😊
