  1. Of course the Danes will win. Hansi has just tweeted as much!
  2. No doubt it is the best team, but nevertheless, Stead is a backward step.
  3. What a true legend Hancock is! 44, and still showing the youngsters the way home. I suspect there are many youngsters that would like to be as "boring" as he is!
  4. I think the problem with Darcy in the semi-final was concentration. Five races and five wins, made things all too easy, and, no doubt, he thought he was already in the final. Had he dropped a few points on the way to his semi-final place, it would probably been better for him. He will learn from it though, and I think the best is yet to come!
  5. This would have been better at Lakeside!
  6. Rosco can only work with what he's got, and, at the ,moment, he's got nothing.
  7. That could have been the night they wanted to test his engine, but when they told him they would not put it together again,he refused and left.
  8. Did someone say that Smolinski would be outclassed in the GP series? Darcy had a rough night, he didn't have the speed at all. There was nothing deliberate about Smolinski's crash with Ward,he just hit a rut the same as batchelor did earlier.
  9. There has been betting on speedway for decades. Take it away, and there would be less people interested in the sport than there are now.
  10. Vaguely for me too! I do recall two bookies offering speedway bets that were published in that magazine though, and we had to phone them to place our bets. Until online betting came along, of course.
  11. I have backed Torun to win their league with two different bookies. I certainly won't be touching the Bel at this time, because it's a magical mystery tour.
  12. Given the current dire state of British speedway, dwarf throwing would be a threat!
  13. I like Hancock too. He must be the best rider ever for his age.
  14. Talk is cheap, and plans being drawn up mean nothing. Didn't Swindon council once say that no houses will be built until the stadium is ready? Or something like that.Meanwhile, back at Belle Vue!
  15. Adam Skornicki, for me. I cannot stand him and it's about time he had a hair cut!
  16. Listening to radio 5, early this morning, they said something about BT being set to announce the sports they will cover, and speedway was mentioned. That's all they said.
  17. In the days of the "big 5" Peter Craven was always the most popular rider at Swindon, and he probably was at most of the other tracks as well.
