  1. Kevin Wolbert has to be there somewhere on his average
  2. as hadriens wall ended south of newcastle there is still a case for rebuilding it
  3. Or it could be that Bates was at the meeting where Lambert was injured, and it was easy to sort him out as guest
  4. Obviously there last night, he never stopped trying and entertained in all his rides but his first one. thank god hes not good and he just gates and goes, rather have the entertainment thanks
  5. The way to stop the problem of double up riders is simple if they cant ride for any other reason than injury, then you have to have a NL guest for them
  6. didnt Frank Varey win the argentinian championship so nearly fits the bill good signing for the rest of the seaon, and next hopefully
  7. I see Ricky has been discharged from hospital today Earlier in the season when i asked if Sheffield were to hold a benefit meeting for him i was told it was on the agenda, but it seems to have gone quiet on that front. Anyone heard anything about such a meeting?
  8. Why the medical team? i am a trainer for my sins, when i am going to a place i dont know i expect them to tell me what equipment i need at their venue, i do not just turn up and expect to have the right equipment, neither would i take responsibility if someone didnt tellme when i needed something different, and i didnt turn up with it and that led to the course being cancelled. i admit the communication needs to be two way, but unless i am told, i might not know what i have to ask for
  9. thats OK then because it has happened to others, but not the same reason, its OK for fans to be out of pocket and people ask where are all the fans going
  10. then the question is why wasnt the doctor informed of the equipment he required, and although he might only turn up 30 mins before hand, he must have checked his equipment before he set off, so once again why didnt he know what was required?
  11. Sounds like a sunday league football team turning up without their kit i thought this was a professional sport, why was it only discovered "shortly" before the start time?
  12. If the promoters dont realise how many fans are boycoting meetings already, i doubt if a few more fans doing it would bother them. most must be quite happy with whats going on as i dont see anything, except tinkering, being discussed on how to change things
  13. What a farce this sport is, we get todays "cancellation" and then on TV yesterday we have the world cup with "jokers" being played. why would anyone but the die hards want to support this mess
  14. like i already said Chris, i am not involved in speedway on a day to day basis, i go and watch when i can, or want to, but we heard this same statement so many times in the past, only for other teams to go out and sign someone, only time will tell if another team goes out and signs a rider in the next few days / weeks. dont mind admitting i was wrong if no other team signs anyone before we do it may be true in this case, only time will tell
  15. to be honest, if i am one of the supporters who doesnt go anymore, why would i moan if there wasnt a team to support? after all i dont go, so i dont support a team
  16. Sorry but i have a job that is nothing to do with speedway and dont get the time to look at riders, but i bet another team goes out and signs someone soon
  17. Nice to see some things dont change. the old promotion always said there was never anyone available as well. so i expect no more team changes in the PL this season as there is no one available
  18. deserved one, I thought the ref could award the heat in those circumstances, or is that just wishful thinking on my part
  19. Yes but the southern ones are right dint he ride in international matches for Scotland or is my memory playing tricks
  20. 1968 my first year in speedway is when he rode for us Frank Varey finally had his number 1, think we finished 3rd or fourth our best league position he then went back to the inferior tigers and was replaced by Jim Airey, Sheffields best ever rider PS Only got back off holiday today, now see someone has put the correct year
