  1. I'm not disagreeing with that, I disagree that he's the greatest GB rider in history - do you not understand the difference?
  2. Don't forget he hasn't been contracted to ride in the Premiership this year either (other than a few guest appearances). Shame though as he's having a great season.
  3. Why on earth do premiership teams use Sam Hagon - does he pay them to ride? Seriously, they can't think he'll beat anyone at this level so seems such a strange choice. What have I missed?
  4. I thought it was? I wonder why they don't get bigger crowds, given the population in the area and the fare served up, seems a shame.
  5. Anywhere else on the track Toby would've gone, no contact just a mistake - ref bottled it using the 'unsatisfactory start' rule to avoid a decision.
  6. Think the racing should improve, gate and go so far. Sounds like plenty of interest in the other two Premiership meetings tonight.
  7. If you mean for Wolves then fine but disagree completely if you mean GB's greatest.
  8. He's renowned for it, often stuffs his team mate around Foxhall!
  9. I don't think it makes much difference. The bikes never reach their top speed and there is a fair amount of resistance. Tiny riders in history have not been more successful, schofield, turner, bjerre as three examples.
  10. Now that GP riders are realising there is definite benefit to riding in the UK they seem to be coming back. As Artem is finding, it's not that easy over here.
  11. Surprised you've not seen Danny King before?
  12. Whilst I agree with you, if they are exploited in the right way they could provide some additional tech insight - fastest rider, fastest lap etc. to keep youngsters interested whilst we try to fill in our programmes with pens.
  13. I agree with you about Wright but the same as in any job, if you p off your manager, you'll get less opportunities!
  14. Very small margins and GB could easily have won - congratulations to them, they did me proud. I don't believe they lack any mental strength at all, unfortunately the way some races pan out it can be another who presents an obstacle e.g. Fricke in Ht 20 held up Lambert which allowed Janowski to pass. Janowski himself had to ride the outside as he had nothing to lose - sometimes being the chaser is easier than being the chased and Lambert was no doubt settling for second (bar any mistakes from Fricke) after a couple of laps. Any suggestions Poland are miles ahead was clearly de-bunked.
  15. I'm expecting it to be as they shouldn't be scared of a rain off as they could go again tomorrow.
  16. Touché! No, Foxhall is the place, holds 10k and would serve up some great racing and atmosphere.
  17. Kinsley has been around a long time now, not improving & time to call it quits in my view, can't be good getting beat all the time. Maybe he can get better?
  18. So did I but he wasn't on the box for the two semi-finals. Has tweeted about the race off though.
  19. On, so that's five rides each then. How many can the reserve have?
  20. Oh didn't realise that, so the top four all get six rides then. Not having a programme means I just watch it as it happens!
