SCB Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 (edited) Viktor is the translator but as Millard(?) got it wrong (AGAIN!!!) and called him manager a few times at Eastbourne some people have been confussed (Millard has that affect!). I'm still smile when I think of some of the moves and comments and best bits from this meeting, the last week has really made me fall in love with the sport again, Wato wining the chase and now the SWC has been great, let hope for a great end to it all tommorow with a Team GB win, I really can't wait.

Philip Addison Posted August 6, 2004 Report Share Posted August 6, 2004 (edited) Richie Benaud, Dame Edna, Rolf Harris, Niel Street, Germaine Greer, Men without hats, Paul Hogan, The Kangaroo's,.......... your boys etc etc. Sorry to nit pick or be a smart R's or whatever but Men Without Hats came from Canada.I think your thinking of Men At Work.Excellent band,shame they only brought two albums out. Last nights meeting was unbelievable.I can safely say without doubt that that was the greatest televised Speedway meeting ever.At least in this country.I taped it and watched it tonight [ after avoiding the result ] Gutted when the first 5 heats went awol as i lost the transmission due to the torrential rain that caused Sheffield's meeting to be abandoned.Could have been worse though.So glad Sweden and Poland qualified.I'd rather watch the likes of Jonsson,Lindback,Gollob,Kolodziej,Hampel etc than old farts Boyce and Johnston.Sorry Cobbers [ Got to say this cos Johnno went down too easy and i didn't like Boycies comments on Lindback ] I can't wait for the Final.Before the World Cup i fancied Denmark to win it, but after these 3 meetings i don't know.It's anyones now !!! Four great teams.Just hope Olsen doesn't spoil the track, kidnap him, lock him out,don't give him a pass,ANYTHING. Agree with Gemini, get rid of that helmet cam,sometimes spoils a cracking race. COME ON GREAT BRITAIN. Edited August 6, 2004 by Philip Addison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just read your post SCB, was typing mine before i read it.I think your explanation is probably spot on.That would explain the confusion perfectly and typical of Arthur !

Lanzilla Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Sorry to nit pick or be a smart R's or whatever. I think your thinking of Men At Work.Excellent band,shame they only brought two albums out. They brought out more than two albums, although 'Business as usual' and 'Cargo' were the biggest hits over here. Sorry to nit pick...

Brightonbob Posted August 7, 2004 Report Share Posted August 7, 2004 Thusday was simply fantastic. Even as a relative newbie (oh those lost years!....) I am evengelical about speedway to all my footy and boxing mates. I got a call yesterday from regular pi55-taker who was going on and on about how brilliant the speedway was! It took twenty five rider to make such a great event, but the Poles rose to the occasion. Sweden will be on thepodium because Andreas and Tricky will score heavily. Both the Danes and the Brits have riders that could score maximums. Its going to be very, very close. Every heat is going to a total saga all of its own. Its 6am on the Saturday, I'm looking at my two 1st bend seat tickets and I want to leave now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
