Threat To The Gp Grid Girls?
Paulco replied to a topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Seriously Pinny ???? Must have some super models wandering about convict land that has spoiled you hahah -
Jenga cant get his geography or maths correct , so not one of the more believable rumours to appear on here lol
-
Why would Rene be re-joining Glasgow ? He could only replace one of our heat leaders and that is highly unlikely

Is There A Need For Guest Riders?
Paulco replied to steve roberts's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Doubling up being as it is , means the guest thing just gets worse and worse . -
Is There A Need For Guest Riders?
Paulco replied to steve roberts's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Cant argue with any of that , but what is the answer ? Squads have been mentioned , but isn't financially viable or is there sufficient riders willing to ride here . And teams get bad luck with injuries before we even go into the shambles the out of control doubling up has caused . If we do away with guests , then team speedway will be unworkable . -
Do Riders 'manipulate' Their Averages To Get A Ride?
Paulco replied to Gresham's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
At the start of the season when teams were built ( in both leagues ) to existing PL averages from last season , it made the rolling averages redundant . -

Afraid so , the rolling averages are gone -
The Riders Who Never Took Your Imagination Over The Years.?
Paulco replied to Sidney the robin's topic in Years Gone By
It's the old gating tart thing as opposed to exciting riders who thrill us with their exploits working their way through the field . Greg Hancock for example , great rider and seemingly able to defy old Father Time , but i'm sorry he doesn't get the juices flowing the way a Darcy Ward or a Tomas Gollob did . -
We had riders such as Joe Haines , not being able to take up a place in the World under 21's because of financial constraints . If the BSPA were serious about pushing the progress of young British riders that kind of thing wouldn't be an issue as the riders in question would be given that support . Whatever people think of Woffinden is irrelevant , in this instance not using a double world champion when he offers help just beggers belief .

Do Riders 'manipulate' Their Averages To Get A Ride?
Paulco replied to Gresham's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Riders not putting it all in to drop their average (Kevin Wolbert , Glasgow 2014 ) , much the same as footballers not putting it all in to get rid of a manager . Suppose these sorts of things happen in team sports , not just speedway . -
Edinburgh V Newcastle Ch 19/5/17 @ 7.30 Pm
Paulco replied to Mr Blobby's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
This just illustrates the shambles speedway is in with doubling up out of control . -
No we'll gloss over that kiss of death lol , I meant the standard of entertainment on track .

Peterborough V Berwick 19/5
Paulco replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Was all a myth perpetrated by the forces of darkness -
Seriously ?????? i'd love to watch every week what I watched at Somerset 2 weeks ago . Either a wind up , or a very bitter man with an axe to grind . A very daft post
-
Yeah kind of spoiled our fun him abdicating
-
Exactly , why cant we ever have clear cut rules and transparency to cover for every eventuality ? There's always this making it up as we go along scenario .
-
At Glasgow last year he became a huge crowd favourite . Huge personality and had some decent meetings too . Top scored for Leicester at Rye House recently , so seems to have improved this season

Ipswich V Sheffield Ch2 Wed 17-5-17@7-30pm
Paulco replied to Super Blue's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Saw Richie ride for Somerset at the dump , erm definite Armadaleitus there -
Ayres would be a good shout , riding well this year
-
Not unusual though , last season Ben Barker rode his final Glasgow meeting after being told he was being replaced

Glasgow V Redcar , Championship Sat 13th May 2017 At 7pm
Paulco replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Bit of frustration there , Andersen was very poor , on a track he usually rides quite well , before finally winning a race once the meeting was over a contest . -
Newcastle V Edinburgh Ch 14/5/17 @ 6.30pm
Paulco replied to Mr Blobby's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Blimey they usually have no problems in that department , apart from the one time Midnight Lady asked me if I could do it at an Edinburgh v Glasgow meeting at Armadale a few years back , and the Chatzone nearly exploded lol . I didn't have to do it in the end up -
Workington V Berwick 13/05/17 19:00hrs Champ
Paulco replied to topaz325's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Yeah I realise that , in all likelihood he was genuinely ill .
