My initial thoughts were that Gollob was at fault for the incident,he definitely looked to see where Jonsson was,and then turned left on him. Watching the replays only confirmed for me that the wrong rider was excluded.

Agree totally.

I bet you had a wry smile when you posted your reply Subedei

Probably out of embarrasment the last bit mjfc How the hell is the PL pairs any sort of entertainment compared to a Wasps v Tigers clash at the Meadows?

I can remember saying to my brother when Boycie was walking back to the pits he was going to lamp him one,and he duly obliged Jeez,so many years ago

BOBBATH,they are referring to the new track,and as for your second point about the smell from the park,believe me,if you had smelt it,you do`nt forget it

Oh yes,thank the Lord they closed down,it was disgusting

doe`nt mean we can`t spend his money wisely though Nevs

I think you got his attention Nevs

sorry your not coming......any chance you could send your beer money though i`m pretty sure me and Nevs could spend it wisely

i can remember him riding for the Wasps in the late 60`s early 70`s. think he ended up at Canterbury later on in his career.

unfortunately no,the mrs told me where it was she knows Newport better than i do

wow,i`ve just found out where the Etap is and i live in Newport

you did`nt ask him to buy a round did you BFD?

i was trying to be on the level

so you could say he`s laying the foundation for a successful career

yep,it was nigh on impossible to overtake around there,but a few managed it,Phil Crump used to get around people somehow,and i seem to remember Steve Gresham frightening a few riders into mistakes to pass them. he did that at Bristol to

yes,both of them rode for Newport,but in Joe`s case i think it was only a one off if you see what i mean. Tom,on the other hand rode for us often,can always remember he used to miss the gate and watch everybody go out to the fence on the first and second bend,and then he would sneak around the curb and come out either leading or behind his partner. not an easy manovoure to make at the old Somerton Park

cheers BFD,good news and bad news.

how did Tom Hedley get on BFD,and is he coming back to the u.k. to ride for the Wasps or not?

ah,welcome to the real world Bryn do`nt fancy being a postman or milkman then?

still remember his ride in this years Welsh Open Bryn,he should be full of confidence to take on the Elite league this summer after this winter

had his debut season with newport in 1976,and when that team moved en-bloc to bristol he went with them and along with gresham frightened a lot of riders around that eastville track.

i travel 2 miles to see a speedway event every sunday,and all season long i`m still waiting

that`s shocking
