Jacques, I've largely stuck with the team I had, but gone for Lindgren in place of Kasprzak (look at the current standings and the reason why should be obvious ). And don't worry - Dryml will come good All the best Rob

I would like to change my team to: Nicki PEDERSEN DENMARK $60,000 (captain) Jason CRUMP AUSTRALIA $50,000 Hans ANDERSEN DENMARK $40,000 Lukas DRYML CZECH REPUBLIC $20,000 Fredrik LINDGREN SWEDEN $30,000 All the best Rob

Schumi, so you're admitting that Kimi parked his Ferrari in the wrong place, then? All the best Rob

So speaks ANOTHER Wolves fan. You're all too predictable. All the best Rob

Lupus - I've got a stinking cold and I'm not in a good mood. So if anyone starts taking bollocks, I'll tell them so. All the best Rob

Well, no. The referee got it right for starters. As for the rest, they are just sheep and believe everything Keith Huewen tells them (despite the fact he knows NOTHING about speedway), instead of using their own eyes. I'm sure some of them still believe Freddie Lindgren won the Sweidsh GP. Baaaaaaaaaaa!! All the best Rob

Lupus - and, of course, you're completely neutral in this matter... Lindgren IS a nutjob. All the best Rob

Silver Bee, So Lukas was involved in a controversial incident... let's see... three years ago (I assume you're talking about Dryml v Iversen at Oxford). In contrast, this is the third controversial incident that Lindgren has been involved in, in the matter of around a week. The bloke is a complete menace. All the best Rob

Poppycock and nonsense. I suggest you watch the reply carefully. It was not a clean pass by Lindgren, who made clear contact with Dryml. This caused Lukas to lift and wipe them both out (how on earth the likes of Ermolenko and Louis missed this is beyond me ). It was Lindgren's fault - and further proof that Lindgren is a complete nutjob. All the best Rob

Schumi - it's hardly comparable is it, especially as Raikkonen had parked his car in the wrong place. All the best Rob

Kiwi - exactly. All the best Rob

Maybe he's a bit like Jekyll and Hyde? Anyway, as Stevebrum's views can be dismissed, that puts me back ahead on points. All the best Rob

50/50 decision my arse. Gollob did nothing wrong. All the best Rob

I would go for the following team at Coventry: Scott Nicholls Chris Harris Lee Richardson Simon Stead Edward Kennett Reserve: Oliver Allen And then following team for Vojens: Scott Nicholls Chris Harris Lee Richardson Tai Woffinden Edward Kennett Reserve: James Wright All the best Rob

Silver Bee - at the end of the day, speedway riders (although largely splendid chaps) are rather egotistical beasts. I think most of them would prefer to win a Grand Prix and worry about the points situation later. The exceptions are the likes of Nicki Pedersen and Jason Crump who keep a constant eye on points scored (look at the canny display by Nicki at Ullevi) - but they've the mindset of champions which marks them out as different from most of the pack. All the best Rob

Steve, I PREFER "opinionated nonsense" - whether it's my opinion or BWitcher's contradictory one - to wishy-washy "well you're both right" stuff. At least we've come out and stated our view. Stop sitting on the fence. All the best Rob

Subedei - I thought you'd rather be wearing driving shoes. All the best Rob

Indeed we have, although Speedy69 piling in with his ridiculous "everyone" statement prolonged it a bit. And now Bwitcher himself has made a "everyone" statement. But I see BFD has already tore a strip off you for that comment, so I'll let it go. All the best Rob

BFD - it is a rather sweeping statement from Speedy69, isn't it? He certainly is not speaking for everyone, as this thread has proved. His post shows a certain arrogance - with the way he adopts his own view as "everyone". Speedy69, what the hell does it matter if I've ridden a speedway bike? It's totally immaterial. I've seen enough speedway over the years (somewhere around 1500 meetings) to be able to use my own judgement when I see an incident. And I'll make my own mind up, thank you very much. Therefore, it's not "everyone". It's not me, it's not BFD, it's not Jeff, it's not several others who have posted on this thread. All the best Rob

Anthony - I would argue that Tony Steele handled a very difficult GP extremely well. You have to remember that Sky's production will (quite naturally) be biased towards those who ride in Britain. I'm sure the Polish coverage had three riders defending Gollob. Yes, I'm also tiring of the argument now - I'd say I've won on points but you can have a draw if you like. All the best Rob

Anthony, But the riders are divided on the subject as well - I spoke to a rider on Saturday who thought Gollob had done nothing wrong. Personally, what I find amusing is that you think you know better than Tony Steele who has refereed 20+ GP rounds and is the best referee in the world. I think he knows what he's doing. All the best Rob

Anthony, Yes, it was Gollob's choice to change line, just as it was Jonsson's choice to continue up the inside. If the rider in front loses control, then yes that's his fault. Please point at which stage Gollob was out of control? Jonsson ran into Gollob - not the other way around. What amazes me if you refusal to accept that other people can have an opinion that differs from your own. As I've said several times, I'm perfectly entitled to have an opinion and to believe that my opinion is correct. How come you refuse to accept that? All the best Rob

Anthony, It's been about 50/50 on here - you may have posted 100 times but that doesn't count 100 times And anyone who probably understands the rules of speedway will agree that Gollob did nothing wrong. He is perfectly entitled to change line down the straight. I'll tell you what, next time the GP is on I'll take note is all the times the riders change line down the straight and point it out to you. Are you going to stop every single race and exclude them? All the best Rob

Anthony, And you still show no knowledge of speedway at all All the best Rob

How did Gollob knock off Jonsson. Jonsson ran into the back of him. All the best Rob
