I maybe the exception but I always used to love travelling around the country to see some of the big "Prestige" individual events... The Pride of the East, Barum Trophy, Golden Hammer, Brandonapolis, Coalite Classic, Olympique, Golden Gauntlets, Blue Riband and probably others... never made it to Ippo for a 16 Lapper or Star of Anglia, it's just too bloody far away Some of these were still being held until the late 90's/early 00's. I think the problem started around that time when riders would pull out, often at short notice, the BLRC is a prime example, where for whatever reason riders took the p1ss.

Hmm... Torun and Poole both relegated

Maybe instead of linking riders pay to the points they score it's time link riders pay to the number of punters that turn up to watch them, that way they'd be more involved in trying to get bums on seats

...at the moment

Looking at my planner yesterday evening and both matches were on PS1

You could say the same about CL & PL compared to the SGP series... Imagine watching it on BT Sport, thinking I like the look of that and then turning up at any of the tracks in Britain (BV exempt)

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was nationwide

I seem to remember such a questionaire paper being issued in the late 90's early 00's. From memory it had a load of contrived questions on it not really addressing the real issues... also not everyone buys a program so maybe just a customer suggestions box located somewhere around the stadium... maybe directly above the skips

F1 has been classified as "Elite" though... Speedway (Domestic at least) has not. It makes me smile when people say Do whatever it is next year... unfortunately there's no guarantee that we'll be in any different situation by this time next year.

I wonder if it has anything to do with a certain sponsorship that Dudek has but Laguta doesn't?

Wow... there's a real lack of British riders there. I would have expected to have seen a few more names amongst that lot

1 of them is no where near GP standard and is actually riding in this years GP series!

but still managed to decamp from Buck house to Windsor Castle and then more recently to Balmoral

The commemorative battle of Sedgemoor race jacket

Why originally use the American Confederate flag as a logo then? Was that the flag flown at the battle of Sedgemoor by the rebels? Please explain.

... and that's why they're called the rebels? I believe you...

Almost sounds like you're retrospectively trying to make the story fit the club name... I must admit I missed the press release explaining the change of logo though

If you read what I wrote "the chance of earning a few hundred quid to a grand a night"

... And what about when he uses "Veroni", "Varoynie" or "Veranda"... in the same race? Has Kacpker been joshing about with him?

"Absolutely no point in making it difficult for him to post here by insulting his employers excessively, unless that's what you enjoy. It's just a matter of using a bit of intelligence and, if it's not too much to ask, respect?"

You're not questioning Ed Kennett's results then?

I wonder if that's why Jason Crump has returned to these shores?

and whether he was training or dicking about

I'm not sure these riders are securing highly paid jobs in the city, I think the chance of earning a few hundred quid to a grand a night compared to minimum wage driving a van is a pretty easy decision to make.

Free pass for Dave then... Can't pass comment on the way Premier Sport change their schedules and mess everybody about? Just pay my money over and keep quiet?
