Well done lads looked bad after 12 but we got through. Mention to both Robbo and Claes performances, Toft pulled it out when needed with Christian okay and starke getting an important point. However lemo and Ludvig poor and will need to improve. The Comets as expected dominated the heat wins and Howarth seemed to be flying fans probably thought they were going to pull it back at one stage.

Newcastle V Workington Sunday 14th
Big Diamond replied to scaramanga's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Last night the Diamonds needed a lead to keep the hopes of silverware alive and they got it. However the top 4 were nothing special with Claes and the guests the main reason for the lead. The main problem is Comets heatleaders are favourites to win most of the races on satarday, and the bottom end will probably be much stronger. Diamonds need to ride as a team with the guest for Richie the key. -
Greg Hancock World Champion
Big Diamond replied to Dogstar's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Well done Greg glad he won it great achievement at his age considering how long ago since he last won it well done. -
Nice to see another Dane signed by the Diamonds, hope Claes does well he will struggle to be as bad as Lubos who was half a lap behind in most races at home, unless the lad really struggles to adapt to the tracks. Dont expect him to maintain his average few assessed 7 riders do, he is more likely to be brought in to be a decent second string to probably partner Robbo which the team needs.

Good luck to Matej important to the team that he can become a big heatleader in the PL. To be honest it will be hard to judge how good he will be until he rides, its difficult to compare to his peformances abroad. Also his last EL spell was years ago and a it was a much superior league at the time to the PL or current EL. However the PL is still a tough league to be a number 1 especially this year,and it will test him as a few ex EL guys have failed to set the league alight over the years.

Leszno Gp - 24th April 2010
Big Diamond replied to GregM's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Good to see a Gp with a decent track and some good racing hope that continues in the other rounds. -
Not a fan of the joker or any tactical rules like speedway to be simple best team wins without helping the opposition. If the racing is good people will still want to watch.

Big Diamond replied to tomazpozrl's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Good meeting the brits did okay but were never going to compete with Poland and Australia. Good experience for the riders very impressed with King little was expected off him but he deserves to ride on Thurday. -

Britain can still qualify if all the riders improve and show more team spirit. Hopefully no more embarassing peformances from the team. -
Swc Round 2 Coventry 14th July
Big Diamond replied to skid row's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Britain were just not good enough which considering we were the home nation. Track wasnt suitable for the team which is stupid, the Danes will surely like their track, but are probably good enough to challenge on most tracks. -
First round was okay with it being so close for top spot. Glad Russia were competitive made for a more interesting meeting. Hopefully all four teams can create some good racing tonight.

The Cardiff Grand Prix Discussion Thread

Really enjoyed my first Grand Prix and hope to go back next year. Crump was a deserved winner and Hancock a deserved second. Atmosphere was good as well. -
Well done Nicki.

Swc Final
Big Diamond replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Wasnt impressed with GB at all excuses should be able to ride the track or not be in the team. Not sure about the Walasek situation but it was a farce especially if he was fit enougth to ride the next day. -
