  1. Not this year but have been several times in the past, have not been excited about the racing I would not make comments about a track i've never seen, a group from Newport Went over This year and Vowed never to go back due to the lack of racing.my preference is for Technical Tracks where riders have to use the throttle.
  2. The OTA is so Overrated as a Race Circuit it is so much FTG its not real, its just a roundabout ,no straights , the bikes broadside up the straights into a bigger broadside on the bend ,I just dont see the attraction, unless your your a somerset supporter, gate and Go
  3. History repeating itself go to Newport Waspies . org and Read Press Cuttings , same Song Different venue
  4. Darts is just a sport which is very similer to Archery or clay shooting if you take it down to basics, and they are considered sports along with golf,
  5. cmon Main Man is there any truth in what you say , please dont do do to Milton Keynes fans, what you did to Newport fans Years Ago ,when it was just pie in the sky and never amounted to anything.
  6. 11 Days now from Main Mans announcement and no update on venue even, don't look Good
  7. Not trying to belittle the efforts of our lads life expectancy was very short and stress levels through the roof, but a lot of people on here are going over the top , one story he told me was of a pilot who he did name went into battle with a full bottle of whiskey on return with an Empty fell out of the plane and could not stand after making a perfect Landing
  8. Back in the 60's I worked with a man who was ground crew at Biggin hill in the Battle of Britain, he always said it was a good job pilots were not Breathalised as very few would pass,
  9. All Darcy needs is Guidance, a Mentor, Adviser , Manager , I would Suggest Michael Lee.
  10. Who is coming along to eventually replace retiring Moxey63, The White Knight and OldAce; On track, it's like who's come in Team GB's to fill the shoes of the likes of PC, Simmo, Tautum, Wigg? These were replaced by Loram louis Screen Andy Smith and the late Lee richardson ,so who is to replace them
  11. Tim Stone and Anders Henriksson Cant Remember the year ,but Anders was Injured, I was talking to Him on sunday at the track and he said it would be a few more weeks before he was fit, However his replacement Emil Lindquvist I think Got injured, And the Following week we had our scottish Tour, As Anders average was Higher thans Emils, He made a sesational Comeback the next day ( monday) at Reading in a 4 Team event, made one start Stopped on the 1st Bend Withdrew from the meeting ( aggrivated injury ) But he was Back in the team Which enabled Tim Stone to use Micheal Coles as a Guest for the tour ,which he would not be able to do as Emils average was not as high as Anders, Is that Cheating just being Clever ???
  12. i wonder if Greg Hancock Through his excellace would get as much Stick if he had chose another sport Golf - He's just a hole in one Tart Tennis - He's just an ace serving tart Football - He's just a goal scoring tart Rugby - He's just a try scoring Tart Cricket - He's just a Six Hitter Tart I dont think so He would be hailed a Hero that he is
  13. Frank Smart & Craig Watson at Newport in heats 13 & 15 Sheer telepathy
  14. I always Thought Tai Would go to the top right from his Debut at Scunthorpe Against Newport, 12 point Max , I knew he was something special And I have been Proved Right Well done Tai
  15. Hot News the BBC have offered Tai Woffenden a job to Replace Alan Titchmarsh and Diamuid Gavin as Their Gardening Expert
  16. I think the home Club Should supply a spade ,watering can, Bucket of shale and an impactor ,These to be kept by the start gate for any rider to use, council workers can draw large crowds when using these tools so may help with attendances.
  17. can remember Back in the 60's when Parades were Helmet Less, and Poland were the visitors to Somerton Park Edmund Migos set off on his Parade lap at about 50mph doing doing wheelies and clouting the fence ( stayed on though ) but was very erratic
  18. I Hate to Be Nit Picky but you must have started going to Oxford in 1964 by 1965 Colin Gooddy was No1 At Exeter, and as far as Bob Kilby Being top 4 in 1965 For Swindon His Average was only 4
  19. a Lot of riders didn't like Somerton park as you say like Mal Simmons, but it was there and there to be ridden Barry Briggs Nigel Boocock , and esp Reg luckhurst all came and conquered But Well done peter on his Honour
