IainB replied to eric i's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I would have thought you could rent hotel rooms by the hour near Belle Vue 😂 -
2025 World championship dates....OFFICIAL
IainB replied to andout's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I went to Parken a couple of times and some of the sights I saw with folk the worse for wear for drink... one lad bouncing down the steps on his arse carrying one of them drinks holders with 6 pints in it because he lost his footing as he couldn't control his legs! While I agree, as a purist, it's about the racing and competition you can't deny that a weekend in Copenhagen is a far better prospect than a weekend somewhere near Vojens... Skol 🍻 -

They were pretty dangerous with guns!

Alderly Edge!!! You're paying him far too much!
-
So, eventually you've resorted to name calling AceBelle(end)
-
The boot that stopped him riding... in Britain
-
It's the legendary protective boot 👢
-
He don't need a holiday either as he took half the summer off 🥾
-
Our Captain doesn't miss matches... unlike other Captains 🤔
-
All your Aussies will probably be clearing off home early after that too 🛫👋
-
Those 30 people in that stand (for 1 night) will never know how influential they were 😂
-
So, by my calculations it'll be about £16,666 per ticket!

It's a good job that the flights and hotels that I booked for Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney & Perth for every weekend in October 2025 came with free cancellation! ✈️🏨🎟️🦘 -
Yes... some of them ride pretty extreme for ones so young. Dan Thompson looked like a real steady Eddy in that company, will be interesting to see which ones of this crop go on to make it to the SGP series.

Get Belle Vue security on the job! They'll root out any bombs... cherry bombs or cola cubes
-
Just listened to him on the pod... confident lad ain't he.
-
Ancient history 👴 Pay off history shows the Aces to be bottle jobs 😉
-
No... a half million pound temporary stand with 30 people in it will do just fine 👌
-
Well... since the introduction of the pay offs in 2002 BV have proven themselves to be habitual losers, you've made 5 appearances and only won 1. Lions on the other hand 2 finals (at CL level) won 1 lost 1 (at KL!). So by my calculations Lions have a 50% success rate, while the Aces have an 80% failure rate... so maybe you do win the percentages 😁

All you need is Donkey as machine examiner and the take over is complete One mans thrilling climax in front of a laptop (oo er missus) is another mans shambles 🙃

Now I've got to learn Dutch? 😂🇳🇱

Tatum (or Louis) didn't have a clue what was required going into the first running of the final for medal positions, they said as much and quite frankly with all their on air arithmetic neither did I. Do you think there's a reason why they don't award 20, 18, 16 & 14 for heat scores?
-
Yes, but you're, erm, special and I mean that in the nicest possible way. I do miss the "as it stands" caption in the corner of the screen. People can instantly add 3,2 & 1 to it, not 20, 18, 16 & 14!

Well done to Wiktor Meldrew... last U21 Champ to become a GP regular 2016 Max Fricke (is Fricke a regular?). Before that 2015, Bartek & 2013 Dudek. Scoring system proves itself to be not for for purpose again, absolutely shambolic at the end.
