  1. Not everyone checks the internet every day. This is the first I'd heard about it. Keep posting the links.
  2. I don't see a problem in posting press release links personally. You have to trawl through dozens of pointless posts of bickering and attempted oneupmanship every day.
  3. We're not even half way through the season. Wait until September, then form a judgment. Just nit picking for the sake of it. You worry about your own team
  4. Always, or usually? Can't be both. In 2016: 8 from 4 at Berwick 13 from 5 at Edinburgh 10+2 from 5 at Redcar 11 from 4 at Somerset Hmmmm... Some would say you're ignorant, but I'll be kind and say misinformed
  5. Well, you should know the team then. Speedway fans don't arf moan a lot. Jeeeez
  6. Very rarely to football teams announce their line ups more than a couple of hours before kick off. Why should speedway be any different?
  7. And so you should.... Nothing clever or honourable about a "my track is better than your track" argument. Pathetic and childish
  8. A few races from one particularly dull meeting. You can't base a whole argument on that. There have been some very good meetings at Rye this year, but of course that wouldn't fit in with your mindset
  9. Heat 15 😉 Agree, Kennett is not a top notch number 1 in this league, but with the make up of the side he's stuck there for now. Someone commented about his fitness and professionalism last night, but I wouldn't know anything about that. There's no doubt he's a small track specialist and around Rye he's the dogs bollo*ks. Most fans want to see their team win home meetings and this year (Swindon KOC apart) we've not been disappointed. To win trophies, however, you need a bit more than that. Currently I can't see anywhere we'll grab an away point, let alone a win. I suppose we've been unfortunate that teams have strengthened just before we've visited, Wolves, Somerset to name two and Swindon having a facility for the then out of form Adam Ellis helped to dump us out of the KOC. I never expected us to be title contenders, unlike some over excited Rockets fans posting on the Rye FB page, but unless we can grab something away we'll not see the play offs either. A season of consolidation is always the target I had in mind before the season and nothing I've seen so far has altered my thinking. *edit* Edward is currently averaging 10.07 from all home meetings and has won two out of the three heat 15's he's appeared in, so around Rye House he's definitely a number one.
  10. I should think Rob, Ellis and Robbo are racing with various niggles of some kind. Anyone who saw the state of Ellis after the meeting at Poole would find it remarkable he's back so quickly.
  11. You've come to that conclusion from watching a few heats on YouTube, or have you been to a few meetings at Rye this season to be able to give a fair assessment?
  12. Had a downpour around 2.30, lasted around 15 minutes. Pretty dark overhead
  13. Processional speedway with riders 30-40 feet apart at Berwick, or riders struggling to turn on a ploughed field at Rough Park... What a mouthwatering prospect
  14. I wouldn't take any notice of what Tonga says
  15. For f**k sake... A week has gone by and the same people are still banging on trying to get the last word in... Sad, very sad... Jeeeez
  16. Rye House are trying out a different shale as the usual stuff was unavailable. Was used for the first time in the last home meeting. Initial reports were favourable
  17. Been to many Rye House meetings recently? Why do you use bold type and italics?
