  1. I would certainly buy into it a bit more if it was televised in the UK with English (or even Ermolenkish) commentary. I watched a little bit of it last night and just couldn't get on with them gabbling away in Polish... gave up in the end and watched some ESS that was available on catch up this month for free on Premier Sports to Virgin Media customers, although not my cup of tea as Alex Raby talks far too quickly for my liking at least it was in English. I can't understand why so many on here watch the Ekstraliga with Polish commentary
  2. As the SCB like to hand out suspensions (although Tungate hasn't received his latest suspension yet), they should make an example of him and give him a long ban from British Speedway, years not days. I know it won't make a difference to him but it'll make a statement to other riders that think they can get away with a 28 day ban and then return when it suits them.
  3. There's no shame in accepting help from a 3 times World Champion and King of the Decks
  4. Pathetic... but true, he was on his way to being an Adam Ellis, Danny King, Charles Wright type until DJ Woffy showed him the way
  5. Don't tell anybody, especially the Poole fans (like they'd see this on a PL topic!)... but I actually think the move to Poole has done wonders for him, had to improve his gating as it's such a dog rubbish track
  6. Bewley came good when DJ Woffy started helping him out with kit etc.
  7. Come back to me when Cairns is the finished article and we can discuss him, I wish the lad well but I've seen them come with all the hype and then disappear without a trace over the years.
  8. Cubs didn't want to change a winning table topping team. Fricke had to move away to further his career
  9. I thought exactly the same, maybe it's because the bikes aren't whizzing past your nose like they are at a league track. You're quite far away from the action and the stadium is that big, I find it can all be a bit distracting.
  10. Is that because there's only 3 in it? 😁 I think it was mentioned at the last Leicester home meeting it will be staged along with the British Youth Championship and it's a tenner to get in
  11. Because we are led to believe Cardiff is out of contract, the crowds are around 50% down on their peak, all the other big stadium SGP's have gone with the exception of Warsaw, Belle Vue have openly said they're after a GP, WBD gave them the SoN to prove they could stage a GP and it wouldn't be the first time a GP has been announced but then failed to materialise... and there's still no date been announced, which doesn't usually happen. You don't have to be a genius to read between the lines
  12. https://www.scbgb.co.uk/news.php?extend.198 I wonder if Spatula was tested
  13. To be fair they're probably the best crappest team I think I've seen, they've had so many close results at home and have been far from disgraced away at times. Tolley has to take full responsibility for the signing of Milik & Pavlwlicki though. Milik was a gamble but Pawlicki was very much a known quantity.
  14. I wonder if the financials of the SoN have given Belle Vue second thoughts on staging a GP? With that being the only serious alternative maybe the announcement of a date has something to do with that?
  15. While you were watching that crap from Foxhole we were treated to some fine gate & go garbage as Lions booked their place in the pay-offs 👌
  16. It was to sport what those Brit awards were to music Fortunately nobody really saw it
  17. Just caught up with this and like everybody else I've got to say what a complete shambles of a televised sporting production in almost every aspect... I was half expecting Mick Fleetwood and Sam Fox to put in an appearance at some point!
  18. He should call it out for what it is, why shield these riders all the time?
  19. If I were a Brummies fan I think I'd actually prefer to see R/R, they may well have actually won tonight if Pi000tr didn't turn out.
