British Semi = Sheffield 25/04/13
mikec replied to graz gp's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Just read your comment about young Garrity there Shadders - reminded me of watching a fledgling Andy Smith round the old Hyde Road, felt the same way. I was 12 years old, damn I feel old! -
2 out of three for me, Mroczka had one of his "nights", he can be terrible or brilliant with little middle ground. Btw just heard a pretty despondent Staechmann on Radio Cambridgeshire hinting at changes, but praising Hougaard in that his score didn't do justice to the way he rode tonight. On that basis, Kosciuch's place must be in doubt??

Have bet on Aces +6, Zagar over 11 & Mroczka over Sundstrom too.

Ah well, that David Luiz goal saved me from a losing night overall. Eagles surprised me tonight, expected more from the Robins. Maybe a couple of quid on the Aces tomorrow night, we'll see....

I'm on Swindon at -18 (4/5), can see their powerful top 5 giving the Eagles a really tough time tonight. Prediction 58-32.

Bydgoszcz Gp Saturday 20th April

Fantastic racing tonight, really enjoyable. I thought the Eurosport coverage was excellent too. It served as a reminder why we all love the sport so much - despite its seemingly endless ability to shoot itself in the foot at times & drive you mad! -

Darcy Showing What A Pro He Is Again

No - someone he might listen to. I didn't mention his team manager - you did. -
Darcy Showing What A Pro He Is Again
mikec replied to speedibee's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Hope someone can take him to one side, someone he respects & looks up to - reminds him what an incredible talent he is, as well as exactly what he has to lose. He's still very young, he's not the first at that age to make bad decisions, I know I did. I learnt from those mistakes & hopefully he will too. Regardless of who we support it'd be a terrible shame if his talent went to waste - on a speedway bike he is everything our sport needs right now. No less than Jason Crump tweeted last year to the effect that he was the most natural talent on a speedway bike he'd seen since Per Jonsson, high praise indeed. I really hope he'll get, & listen to, some sound advice, gets his work permit for the UK for 2013 & shines - including two visits to my team Belle Vue this summer. -

Chris Holder SELL at $4 N-K Iversen BUY at $6 -
I don't blame Poole either for wanting to keep Ward & Holder together, even though my team Belle Vue will struggle to find anything resembling a number 1. They are box office in the current EL, as the massive queues at our fixture with Poole last season showed. I look forward to seeing them twice at Kirky Lane later this year, though I guess I'm looking forward to it more than they are! Back on topic, looks a real solid King's Lynn side this year, top 3 finish a minimum requirement I'd have thought. Look forward to visiting Saddlebow Road, will have a few quid on a Rory Schlein max that night!

You're quite correct Rob, especially pre-Cardiff. I was thinking back to when Nicki was well adrift in mid-season of Greg. Holder has been well adrift on a couple of occasions too. Just hope its a cliff-hanger whoever wins it & it goes all the way to the final heat. 20/1 with some bookies on Greg to win it, might have a couple of quid on - just in case.
