Thing is, most of the riders have the ability to turn things around halfway through the meeting, but it's not something you see much from Dudek.

I've been waiting for Lambert and Doyle to do that...

He only needs four GP points, but even that's reliant on Dudek winning tonight! You think that's going to happen?

Freddie's getting a taste of his own medicine tonight!

Oh, I know that...

Dudek's third place looking increasingly fragile...

Yeah, looked a little obvious if you ask me... Vaculik looking quick again tonight.

Did he know it was going to be raining? It worked okay for Lambert, so...

Better than Cardiff! Disappointing for Bewley there; I would have expected him to get a couple of points in that one...

It would have been nice if the title had gone down to the wire, but there is guaranteed to be interest until the very end tonight!

So, who's going to get bronze? Lambert or Bewley? Maybe neither? Will we have three Brits in the Top 6? Bloody tight, I can tell you...

My memories? Bloody cold and windy!!! I also think that they produced some of the best looking progs of all time, with some of their full-colour designs of the 40's, 50's, and early 60's.

Yeah, the times you see that happen...

He almost took Lampart off before then.

You sure?

Now, that wasn't a bad race...

Yeah, but disappointing how easy he made it for Basso to pass him...

Seeing the way everyone is wrapped up like it's the middle of winter, I figured...

Well, that heat opened things up a little...

Unfortunately, there are still quite a few like that - and it REALLY doesn't make sense...

Which is why I added "business parks"... Let's look though: what is on the site of Plough Lane? Housing... what is on the site of the County Ground? Housing... what is on the site of Custom House? Housing... what is on the site of Kingsmead? Housing... what is on the site of Groveway stadium? Housing... what is on the site of Harringay stadium? Housing and Sainsbury's... what will be on the site of Abbey Stadium? Housing...

You know, people keep blaming the speedway authorities for all our problems, but really, they don't have much say in the existence of our sport. The fact that most clubs don't own their stadiums (and we have lost our status as a "city-centre" sport), the ever-increasing demand for housing and business parks, the great British NIMBY, and speedway not being "cool' anymore, they are what is really destroying the sport in the UK. If somebody wants to buy the land, and flatten the stadium, what do we do?

You should know, once we have our team, that's it. Whether they still exist or not is irrelevant...

Another case of, "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it."???

What language is that, John?
