Conkers - I still can't quite see how you can call off a round of the World Championship and not re-stage it. All the best Rob

Surely if it's supposed to be a ten-round series, then it should be a ten round series. How about if Ivanov keeps Krasnikov to within 25 points, surely then the extra round has to be held? All the best Rob

So what's happening with the missing round of the World Championship. When it's being re-staged? All the best Rob

Poor Andy Galvin was just trying to earn a crust. All the best Rob

Well done Sam. Hope to see you back over here at some point. All the best Rob

Great to see the fours back at Peterborough - any chance of the qualifiers making a very welcome return? All the best Rob

And I'll see Krasnikov running in the opposite direction, when he thinks you're trying to crucify him All the best Rob

Krasnikov seems to be strolling towards championship No. 6. Conkers, what are you going to do in five years time when he runs out of fingers to hold up? All the best Rob

Yeah, great. A system where a rider who finishes second in the meeting can score more points than the guy who wins the meeting. About time we went back to the KO system used between 1998 & 2004. Now THAT was entertaining. All the best Rob

Probably just Cardiff now. Was going to go to Malilla, but Travel Plus aren't running their week-long trip over there this year and not really interested in a trip taking in just 2 meetings. Planning to do the Czech Golden Helmet (4 meetings) instead of that. All the best Rob

Yes. See you there. All the best Rob

Conkers - well the big favourite at Assen is Posa, who won't be there now because of the ridiculous regs, so it's backfired somewhat. All the best Rob

But there's 7 qualifiers from one round and 5 from another. How does that work out? All the best Rob

How come Posa is not No. 18? He finished sixth in his qualifier. All the best Rob

And who has said he is guilty? All the best Rob

So Krasnikov is beatable. Looking forward to Assen this year. I'm hoping that Posa will make it through as well - for one last bow. EDIT: Look in here quite often, but don't often post. Keep it up guys - this thread is very informative. All the best Rob

Ron, this is a speedway discussion forum. Therefore we're free to discuss Andy Galvin's situation, which is a topic relating to a former rider. If members of his family are not comfortable with this, then they don't have to come onto this forum - nobody has forced them. It's called free speech. It's as simple as that. All the best Rob

I nominate Paulco and Midnight Lady as joint managers. Seriously, I don't see any harm in Scotland having their own team in the World Cup. Can you imagine if they got through the World Cup preliminary round and got through to ride in the competition proper against England? Would be a great ocassion, nothing like a bit of England/Scotland rivalry. All the best Rob

Steve, because the "New Year Classic" was the invention of the former Newport promoter and this meeting, along with the post-Cardiff Welsh Open, help to keep the track going. All the best Rob

Wasn't that a Boxing Day meeting or something - and was therefore the "December" meeting instead of the "January" meeting. Held in the mid 1990s I think - we were there. All the best Rob

Paulco, I wasn't that cold yesterday - I was wearing a T-shirt, three sweaters, a leather jacket and my bright yellow SRBF gear on the outside - a total of 6 layers. All the best Rob

Yep. Dietbowers, nice to meet you for the first time yesterday - and thanks to your contribution to the SRBF collection around two seconds later. All the best Rob

Wanna, I looked out for someone wearing T-shirt and shorts, but couldn't see you. All the best Rob

Parsloes, blimey we must stop agreeing - I can't get used to it. In the meantime, I must stop hi-jacking threads every time there's a mention that 2009 is the final year of the decade (which it is not). All the best Rob

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!! How many times? The new decade starts in 2011 not 2010. Was there a Year AD 0? No. Millenniums, centuries and decades all start in years ending with a "1". All the best Rob
