  1. Thought we might have seen a tac sub of Woffinden in heat 10 rather than a reserve change.
  2. Me too. I'm recording the Pairs for watching after this. Haven't seen the guy you are asking about but if he's in a chair it could be Krysztof Cegielski. EDIT: Looks too young to be Cegielski.
  3. Trying to understand the Google translation, but it seems that the club are basically saying that he is being ungrateful for demanding his rightful cash because of all the wonderful things they have done for him in the past! What about his contract then? Seems to be only the Russian lads prepared to face up to the Polish clubs.
  4. Stream removed from bet365 site at last minute.
  5. Riders don't seem to have changed yet, and the Coventry match starts in less than an hour. Bet365 and stream.
  6. My God! Now it's Danish soft toy hunting----------------------------and indoors too!
  7. Any idea of the teams tonight? I see that Simon Lambert the British/German wunderkind is a 'C' rider with Outrup. Mind you Holder is their 'A' rider but I don't expect he will be there.
  8. Can't remember seeing a truck spraying dirt like that onto a track before!
  9. Two tacticals in the same race? Edit: Oops! Mixed up my Bach with my Bech!
  10. Oh sure! The Danish meetings are great, I love'em. And Slangerup are 'my' Danish side too after a visit to the track back in the day. ( I don't remember all those 'cabbages' in those days though)
  11. Maybe just me (!) but it seems the graphics man isn't sure whether the numbers he puts up are points or finishing position. ??? What's the Danish for 'dodgy track'?
  12. Like most of us, so glad to see Swedish speedway on Eurosport HD. BUT, like so many posters I have to say that the commentary provided was sub standard by any measure. Reason for this post though is to point out the irony of the fact that during a commercial break Eurosport were asking for people who had an interest in becoming a sports commentator to send in their details to the station, and (I think),enter a competition. So come on all you commentators out there...................contact Eurosport and show Jack and Sam how its done!
  13. First time I've seen the 14/15 nominations done this season. No more telephone boxes then? Had to grin at the way they did it though................first sticking up the name of a rider that is to be replaced (ie. Gollob, Sayfutidinov) and then taking it down again to put in the sub.
  14. Dear oh dear Mr. S. Is this the best that you can do? See my post above..................the humility part applies to you too.
  15. From Poole website: Whilst Aces' Captain Cook went through the card unbeaten by a Pirate, Poole's skipper Maciej Janowski 'love affair' with the Belle Vue circuit never improved. Janowski had failed to score from three rides on his last visit to Manchester and with a fall and a heat 6 last place to his name he was again struggling to find the winning groove. But when he and fellow Pole Przemyslaw Pawlicki partnered up for a second time it looked for certain that they had delivered the goods and held off the intense interests of the previously unbeaten Matej Zagar. But when the result was announced it was met with a stunned silence and much head turning towards the referee's gantry as in the eyes of the SCB official Willie Dishington Zagar's efforts had been strong enough just to get up on the line and ###### second place from the team riding Pirates. It was a crucial decision as the visitors had just levelled the meeting after dual guests Charles Wright and Oliver Greenwood had paired up for Poole in heat 9 to claim maximum points. Had Poole been given that second successive maximum score it would have given them a little bit of breathing space Ah,so that's why the Aces won. ( I didn't see any Poole officials on the finishing line by the way) A little humility would go a long way in helping to counter the dislike that so many fans have for the Dorset set-up.
  16. Try this: Straszne grafiki. Proszę dostarczyć lupy lub silne okulary. (Translate: Awful graphics. Please supply magnifying glass or strong spectacles....................I think!!)
  17. Does seem to be a bit of fuss about nothing. But don't all US riders carry a number from when they first start riding? I have several autographed photos of the Morans that they always signed with their numbers as well as their names. Explains Greg's wish for the change anyway!
  18. Anyone who has attended USA meetings will recognise the way that they are presented. Lots of noise, constant commentary from an over the top presenter and the usual US razzmatazz. Have to say I loved it ! Special mention to the commentator who could be seen taking the occasional sip from a flask, and even name-checked the person who had provided the Jack Daniels! Not sure that I could survive it every week at Kirky Lane but all promoters here might learn at least something from watching it.
