  1. Oh ok, he's obviously fit to ride because you saw him moving in the pits...
  2. Motorsports competitors need to practice, and they often practice other forms of motorsport in order to keep in trim. What if an athlete pulled a hamstring on a training run? Would you say THAT was ill-advised?
  3. No he hasn't. The ONLY time in sport that you "let your team down" is when you're not trying. Sometimes you do things that are perhaps ill-advised, but things happen...
  4. But we've been serving scrag end for years, and it's working well! Why should we change?
  5. So, Brennan isn't "on the pace"? Yeah, he was crap tonight! As I said, if it hadn't been for the crash, we would have had a great chance of winning the title. As it was, third place isn't exactly a disaster - although you may think it is...
  6. But apparently, there are those who don't think he's "on the pace"...
  7. That is one of the biggest problems with British speedway; it's tough to get any sort of atmosphere when you don't have a crowd.
  8. So you don't think there are any British riders that are "on the pace"?
  9. Other than all the crashes caused by the watering. I just don't get the comment about GB being "not as good as they believe themselves to be". We were nicely poised, and then got screwed by the track. We could/should easily have been a race from the race-off, and just two races from World Champions...
  10. Yeah, we're crap. I don't know why we even try. Just tell all British riders to quit, and we'll all be happy...
  11. I've received an email from someone asking me about a "European Championship" held at Ostrava on September 28, 1947. Obviously, it was an unofficial championship, but it was mentioned in Basse Hveem's book. Eric Chitty was second, Hveem third, and Karl Killmeyer fourth. It was won by one of the Craven brothers, and I assume it was Malcolm. Can anyone confirm, or provide any additional info, please?
  12. Anyone else notice the screwed-up captions again? Two riders in blue, there!
