  1. Kelvin's approach to World Finals was to allow him to be pushed out wide and then spend the next 12 months moaning about it. All the best Rob
  2. He still scored nearly as much as Nicholls and Harris put together. And no doubt Nicki Pedersen and Jason Crump have early nights the night before the Grand Prix. It's called professionalism - and it's what the British riders lack. When I'm out on the piss the night before the Swedish GP, I don't expect to bump into any riders. All the best Rob
  3. Paulco - the Danes all get on come the World Cup, though. Unlike our riders who are too busy nicking the favoured sports of their team mates in the Coventry pits, instead of concentrating on a team effort in the competition. All the best Rob
  4. I was staying at Vastervik at the weekend. Bjarne Pedersen was staying at our hotel. Someone spotted his mechanics in the bar at the hotel the night before the Grand Prix, and they asked his mechanics where Bjarne was. "He's been tucked up in bed for the last hour", came the reply. It seems Bjarne went to bed around 8.00pm. On the other hand, Chris Harris was spotted at a bar in the wee hours of Saturday morning. Is it any wonder we can't compete with the Danes? All the best Rob
  5. Jacques - I think you'll find my team has now clicked, so you'll find it hard to get those 17 points back. And it's all thanks to my No. 5 Lukas Dryml All the best Rob
  6. This is good to see: 21 lucifer sam 415 33 Schumi 404 39 Jacques 398 All the best Rob
  7. Sub, surely a better indicator of whether any draw number is favourable would be to look at the top scorer at the end of the 20 heats. In the old World Finals, I think Nos 5 & 13 had the most wins. All the best Rob
  8. BBB, that's OK, just being a bit impatient because I reckon I scored around 90 from the round and therefore I may have gone sailing past Jacques in the standings. All the best Rob
  9. I reckon I had a good one last night thanks to captain Nicki, Hans and Crumpie. What are the latest standings Bert? All the best Rob
  10. What a pleasure every time Greg is interviewed. He is such a gentleman and always remains upbeat. All the best Rob
  11. You obviously didn't see the 2007 German GP then. Best feature of last night wasn't the racing. It was Johno's commentary. Comments such as: "I was in the middle of an important comment there when he fell off. That was a bit selfish of him." Brilliant. All the best Rob
  12. But, my Old Mongol friend, if Olsen "ratifies" surely that does indeed given him the final choice. Do we know for sure if Ljung was the Swedish choice and not Olsen's? And surely the Swedes don't get the choice for this round in any case - it's the Scandinavian Grand Prix, is it not? In the past, non-Swedish riders have been the wildcard for this round, surely the Swedes wouldn't have picked a Dane or a Finn? All the best Rob
  13. Subedei - the ultimate choice of wildcard is down to Ole Olsen not the Swedes. I would have thought you would know that. All the best Rob
  14. Parsloes, It was last staged in 1981, when it was rained off on its traditional May date and restaged in August. Hans Nielsen was the final winner. The following season (1982), the Internationale was scrapped and replaced by the £5,000 winner takes all Embassy Open at White City. It was a crap meeting on a very slick, with no passing, except in the run-off, where Dennis Sigalos passed Hans Nielsen to claim the money. It was the only time the Embassy Open was staged - with the competition mutating into the British Open Pairs. All the best Rob
  15. How about the following Great Britain team: 1. Jason Crump 2. Leigh Adams 3. Chris Harris 4. Chris Holder 5. Tai Woffinden All the best Rob
  16. Hmmmm, they seemed to leave a very patchy track, which helped cause Jason Crump's broken wrist. All the best Rob
  17. How do you get 0.2 of a person? All the best Rob EDIT: Sorry, Peter, I know what you meant, but I was just imaging someone with their leg left through the railings.
  18. Oh for goodness sake. Yes, Nicki is the Prince Of Darkness and we all love to boo him. But he did bugger all wrong last night. All the best Rob
  19. More likely to be: 1. Denmark 2. Australia 3. Poland 4. Sweden All the best Rob
  20. Subedei - get rid of that bloody avatar, you're Mongolian not bloody Polish. All the best Rob
  21. All five riders were crap, so maybe they should have been called "Team Crap". All the best Rob
  22. HA - I'm sure Scotland used to ride in the UK Round of the WTC in the mid-seventies along with England, New Zealand and Australia. Then the Yanks emerged and took Scotland's place. It was only in 1960-61 that the qualifying team was called Great Britain (a supposedly English team, but with Ken McKinlay in it ). I don't think the Aussies in 1976 or New Zealand in 1979 would like to be referred as Great Britain. All the best Rob
  23. Paulco, Tully's Scottish isn't he? I reckon that lad could go a long way. But yes, you're right, England and Scotland should have seperate teams. And if your youngsters progress, hopefully we could have an England vs Scotland test series in the future. All the best Rob
  24. And deservedly so - Stead was rubbishe tonight. Where was the passion? He was a disgrace to the British racejacket - he should never be allowed to wear one again. All the best Rob
  25. I would still replace Nicholls. Give Danny King a chance. See if he rides with a bit more passion than Nicholls when representing his country. All the best Rob
