  1. What's Starbucks? What's a cappuccino? Think he's joined Ipswich - rode for Sheffield last year. His old man used to sell ice creams at Reading....
  2. My first visit to Hackney was in my old Ford Consul - no satNav then just AtoZ and the M1 finished at the Edgware Rd - you were brill,,, you won then - plz win this one
  3. Do Wolves fans want Lydia back? I don't . When he can ride Kirky Dump & the Arlington pear drop then I might be interested - then I Will consider him as a World Champion...
  4. Beowulf as a Wolves fan you always said to me, "when you see Eric Gundersen pass a Wolves rider in a Wolves v Cradley meeting - save that programme, it's so rare!"
  5. Apologies for hijacking the Leicester thread, but as a Wolves supporter I was raised on Friday night as race night and preferred that., but things altered when danMc & CVS swapped race nights and moved Hans Nielsen to the Brummies. So how about the Brummies having Mondays! As for Leicester's ambitions and the current decline of the Elite League - should they consider reverting back to Tuesday's as per the Blackbird Rd days and ride in the Swedish League. this way Doyle can remain with them, and the team can be rebadged as Lionerna - simples 😄😄
  6. Perhaps there was a shortage of guests available?
  7. Normally Wolves bring a couple of 'unknowns' over for the end of season Olmpique meeting. If they are any good then Poole snap them up!
  8. Could the start time be brought forward to 7:00pm? Then it might be over by 11:00pm. Also I would have expected Leicester to be the first match as they were the original fixture.
  9. No price reduction, so the regulars will be able to wave to each other across the gaps on the terraces. Can we expect the status of the prestige event 'The Olympique' to be confirmed tonight or will it remain provisional? Sad times when a season is likely to finish by the first week of September. Although some would say the season finished earlier!!!
  10. No rider-replacement when it's a Double Header meeting would be a good place to start,
  11. Well, I only spotted three of us Wolves fans at the 'Torun Of The South' last night. We were fortunate to get a place on the back straight with a clear view of the track. Thankfully we were kept company by a guy with a Charlton Athletic badge on his coat and a Hackney proggy board who gave us the chance to talk about the good old days! The cafe food was excellent (again), then things went downhill... Think top eight is the best we can hope for now!
  12. Can we use Chris Harris to replace Freddie Lindgren now that Belle Vue has been rained off?
  13. Wolves and lakeside web sites have the fixture as either Thursday 12/8 or fri 13/8 not 22 June! Have the tracks been informed yet
  14. No PK at Poolle tonight, he's unwell (see Wolves web site).So if he is also r/r for Smederna then what is the furthest distance apart that r/r has been used for the the same rider on the same night??? Couldn't Rory Schlein take both the guest bookings!!!
  15. At Lakeside last Friday Wolves fans watched Doyle & Schlein as the opposition heat leaders..... And tonight we have ..... Same again!! What a sorry state the Elite League is in - now we have teams in name only.
  16. Any news on who is the centre-green announcer tonight - 'Porky' or 'Yorky'?
  17. cookie's mate was Mike Rooney - aka: roondog! Was the announcer at Auburn the last time I met him. Great guy!
  18. Hope the programme heat details have been proof read after the Olympique mix-ups on opening night! I would also be disappointed if it's the Coventry rain-off proggy with an insert and full priced.
  19. Seems to confirm that with the Elite League we are watching a £10 sport. Last night was further confirmation that Elite League speedway is a £10 spectator sport.
  20. Drink drivers are like politicians - they are only sorry when they are caught!
  21. Excellent decision - hope it catches on in all Leagues for 2015
  22. Banks' s Brewery shut the Pub which was close to this site They are business people! There is more profit charging £2.50 to park your car at Kirky Dump than investing in this converted hockey pitch. Time to get real
  23. Last Wednesday's Poole vs Wolverhampton programme contained a full page colour advert for the "National Speedway Stadium". - Get your brick today for just £49.
  24. Surely MJJ will give priority to Coventry vs Eastbourne on Friday 12 September and give Vojens the next day a miss?
