  1. If he's that Danish perhaps he should consider basing himself in Denmark. Like many riders, seem happy to base themselves in the UK while putting British Speedway at the bottom of their priority list.
  2. They may have to initially cut their squad size down but they can't be affording to lose their top stars due to injuries sustained abroad. It's the only thing missing from the Polish model to make it a real professional sport and it surely must be what they're working towards and they're probably only one big tv deal away from achieving it... Having said that I've just watched the ZG Leszno match, ran in front of a big, young crowd... but they didn't even have a children's race during the interval (with the obligatory rabid dog chasing them all around)... think how much that would add to the gate, they've definitely missed a trick there 😉
  3. Are they Ai predictions that they show prior to a race? Maybe it's something we could utilise when calling a meeting off the day before, a bit like when the pools panel used to sit when football matches used to get postponed... it got that last one badly wrong though 😁
  4. And managed to conduct an interview without mentioning Greg Hancock 😂
  5. When is Charles Wright likely to return?
  6. Poland really need to break the model and make their riders employees, it's the only thing missing from their business model and the day that happens all other professional leagues become amateur.
  7. He did take the p155 out of Plymouth for a whole season, we shouldn't be surprised really
  8. I agree, but I never paid more than £30 for a ticket at Cardiff after the first year after I realised there was an excellent view of the track no matter where you sat and I think the last ticket I bought cost me £23!
  9. Miracle recovery from Nicolai Klindt today in Rybnik racing to an unbeaten, 5 ride, full, 15 point maximum, must have flown over Lourdes on his way ✝️ Pulling moves like Michael Jackson while digging his start positions out at the gate with seemingly no ill effects from his knee injury 👍🏻 Must be a relief for all of the Bears' fans. 🐻🍵🍵
  10. ... and why haven't the Poles got words for "Man of the Match"? Listening to the commentator jabbering away in Polish and then all of a sudden I hear them say "Man of the Match" 😂
  11. A half a million pound stand that they can't fill doesn't help matters! If it's 1 Manchester GP you can think about tickets costing double what they currently are 🤔
  12. He does seem to have a rather awkward riding style doesn't he... reminds me a bit of Scott "Scud" Smith
  13. Deemed good enough for a GP wild card but not actually good enough to qualify for the GP Challenge
  14. Indeed it is no laughing matter... what is though is any club that continues to take a chance on this guy 😂
  15. And no replays... although it does seem that they've connected a 2nd camera up.
  16. Hosepipes are no better, especially for an even watering but Oxford's Heath Robinson contraption is not fit for purpose and more reminiscent of an old man having a p155, which is why it always seems to be dusty there 😷
  17. 1 camera, 1 commentator speaking into a dodgy mic, shots of an empty track mid race and a quarter of the screen taken up by adverts. Even British Speedway can do better than this bare minimum coverage from the FIM!
  18. Was it his right knee injury he was coming back from?
