  1. I think that was when Tai commented about improved fitness & eating regimes after a GB get together when other riders had kebabs!
  2. Ha Ha! .... 11 of your last 14 posts have either been in the PL or CL sections!
  3. If he gets to ride 3H 3A meetings then he will get a new average to carry forward.
  4. Possibly similar in operation to the filter lubrication system used in the Gerhard engine(I have seen pictures of Ace Pijper using one of those this year)
  5. So Ash Tech have developed a new style bottom end crank that no one else is using, yet?
  6. What were the engines that our boys were using as in the British Speedway site pre meeting clip & clips of the racing, were some of the riders using the same or similar bikes as the bottom end crank was very different to what I have seen elsewhere? Are they specific to GB or does Tai have input to a tuner as Tai has developed his own racing chassis?
  7. I think track conditions caught us out early in the meeting as the amount of rain earlier in the week & standing water made the inside look very grippy & was evident in gate 1 being quickest most times to the 1st bend. Sedgmen was a man possessed in his early heats & could not be touched & Lawson, well, was just Lawson as usual. Only problem is that he will be dialled in in 2 weeks time when Poole visit. I said to friends mid meeting that heats 12 & 14 would be pivotal & so they proved getting the 5-1 in 12, stopping their best riders taking the TS in 13 as they were in it, giving us the gap to finish off the meeting in style but, gosh, well done to Birmingham on a stirling effort.
  8. He fetched his Polish bikes over when he signed & had his foreign mechanic in Germany, I think, build some more for Poland. He seems to be found racing in the wrong place at the wrong time(on track) & having a few falls/brought down & from reports I think he has totalled 2 bikes now, so scoring few points & low income must be playing on his mind. It was nice to see him in the clubhouse after the meeting with his team mates & dropping to reserve next month just might give him the pick up he needs.
  9. Lawson should score more than Morris has this year, Batchelor ???, Sedgemen could score more but could be a track he can not master set up or lines, similar to Masters. The others, again, hit or miss but this could be nearer to 50-40
  10. Just read on KL v Peterboro' thread that the announcer had said MPT suffering mentally, physically & financially. Unsure whether he would ride again this year & with only 4 days until transfer deadline.
  11. He must have a bloody good Doctor to issue a sick note to which he is given a brown envelope in return.
  12. So now the Aussies are in the SWC race off on Friday so will it be a squad meeting or will riders be released. Australia used Fricke, J Holder, Doyle, Lidsey & C Holder was an un-used no5 so in order I would think Masters before Douglas so Dougy should be available on Friday. We will probably still go r/r but having the chances to use either of the Cook brothers before, I would go with 1 of them again.
  13. I have not seen any clips which is why I am asking Questions in my post. Going by your reply, I guess you are not a Tai supporter but believe him to be a thug! (tattoo's & MMA training giving you & others these beliefs!)
  14. The "fan" was in the wrong place(at the wrong time). Did he or could he have had a knife? And what about all these JSO protesters? could any of them had a knife at the crucible, cricket or elsewhere. Just because they wear orange/white shirts with JSO on the front doesn't make them an innocent individual! Where was the security before Tai intervened?
  15. And when is last years Jubilee thingy being raced again?
  16. Most riders are doubling up & riding in European leagues so taking a break to recharge their batteries for a few days. Even we, in Britain, take weekend breaks, do we not? Any of the 3 top Polish Leagues apply. 5 more weeks to end of August so hope Sheffield do not have any more postponements.
  17. Nothing, in speedway is 100% where the weather is concerned. The only thing 100% tonight is that Poole will win the BSN Series Final.
  18. You will like this GiveusaB. Laurence Rogers is standing in for Rob Lyon for Peterborough, who is on a pre booked family holiday, at Wolverhampton tonight.
  19. UK rainfall radar map - Met Office Looks like the rain is around all weekend so probably all meetings in the North will be cancelled.
  20. Yes & the 2 reserves. For 2nd strings, 1 is injured & the other on FIM duty so, technically both are missing so G for injured rider & G for FIM duty rider.
  21. SD, did you hear anything of Pickering putting a complaint in?
  22. Probably because he will talk to the REAL fans at the stadium & not the ex fans(trolls) on the forum spouting doom & gloom at every opportunity.
