  1. Maybe they don't like venturing north for this . As I recall , when Berwick staged it , apart from the winner Mads Korneiionsen ( ok spelling lol ) , it was mainly 2nd tier riders .
  2. It is what it is , that's the way the Benfund has been the last few years . I'll still go and support the riders who are willing to participate
  3. Don't know about a pre season one , but I hope you guys will be up for another drink in the bar after the meeting on May 4th
  4. All Jenga's fault . It was an informative and interesting thread on a stalwart of British speedway's possible comeback , then Jenga got involved and it all went to pot . So the rule is Jenga stays on Workington threads if they'll have him .
  5. I prefer my speedway in the flesh , so couldnt give a toss . Especially if they're going to ignore the Championship altogether , they can go swivel .
  6. Indeed it was , against Neil Evitts and Peter Carr , what a race , what a meeting
  7. Best meeting I ever saw at Sheffield was in 1991
  8. There should be a Trelawny in there somewhere
  9. if that's the Robert Smith chippy , it's vastly over rated . I got a steak pie supper there once and the pie was freezing in the middle , I haven't been back there since
  10. post 7 on this thread has some of the competing riders , add Ricky Wells to that list , which leaves about 4 names to be added
  11. Why ? People are interested in what David's plans are regarding resuming his speedway career . Just because you used it as an excuse to have another pop at Glasgow , that doesn't mean the thread should be killed .
  12. David is an ex-Tiger , so why not ?
  13. What's wrong with wanting to win Jenga ? Is that not the point of entering any competition ?
  14. In my lifetime ( was too young to see Craven ride ) , you have to put Woffinden top of the list . Despite him turning his back on British Speedway , he is a double world champion . 1 Tai Woffinden 2 Peter Collins 3 Michael Lee 4 Mark Loram 5 Dave Jessup 6 Malcolm Simmons 7 John Louis 8 Chris Morton 9 Eric Boocock 10 Kenny Carter
  15. His obsession with Glasgow is keeping him awake at night . Cant really blame the poor bloke . We all know there are two types of speedway fan , Glasgow fans and those who wished they were Glasgow fans
  16. And how do we work that one Einstein ?
  17. They cancelled Glasgow's visit there 5 days before I was due to travel there , 2 years ago , had to cancel my hotel and make alternative arrangements , ended up at Scunthorpe v Rye House instead . So the MCN show is a bloody nuisance to speedway .
  18. Yes he clipped Ashby's back wheel . Ashby totally blameless
  19. Best - Glasgow beating Cradley Heath in the 1992 inter league cup . Glasgow clinching the 2nd division championship in 1993 , first time it had ever happened Robert Nagy winning the division 2 riders championship , again first time a Glasgow rider had done that The Shawfield era of the early nineties was Glasgow's golden age Worst - Svein Kaasa being killed at Hampden in 1972 Glasgow having to ride home meetings at Workington in 1987 Glasgow dropping down a league for the 1974 season and losing McMillan and Beaton as a consequence
  20. Exactly , when our best rider reckons British speedway is beneath him , then the Back the Brit rallying cry takes a bit of a bashing
  21. While we're a slave to averages and points limits , then what do you expect . If promoters decide Lawson , R Worrall and Neilsen aren't an attractive enough proposition with their current averages , then that's just the way it is .
