2ndbendbeerhut Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 I hope they make the most of today because in more competitive company (including Denmark) they will do nothing!And also a decent track would be nice! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What?!!! i suppose a decent track in your eyes would be slick with no grip at all? Shows if we have a track with a dirt line then the Brits can do it........ Karl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subedei Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) What a fantastic display by Team GB, they certainly made me look more than a little foolish. But what a correspondingly pathetic display by the Danes and in particular Gjedde. Picked as a track specialist, he did next to nothing. I can't see him being in Poland and unless they raise their collective game, the Danes will not be riding on Saturday.

Carcal Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 What?!!! i suppose a decent track in your eyes would be slick with no grip at all? Shows if we have a track with a dirt line then the Brits can do it........ Karl <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Did i say anything about a slick track? Didn't think so! all im saying is that from the very 1st race you could see that there was only ever going to be one racing line.Always a problem at Swindon.

Tsunami Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Great performance by the Brits, young and old. Like Nige, I didn't think we would do it but the Danes really have to ask themselves some questions. Could KB come into the team for the raceoff meeting ?

seanisnumber1 Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Great performance from the Brits and I hope they keep the same team for the final with Steady and Bomber doing us proud!! Would say that Bjerre will definately ride for the Danes in the race off in the place of Gjedde!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight_Lady Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 I thoroughly enjoyed the SWC tonight. Quite a bit of drama on a difficult track. Team GB rode really well and what about the young guns Chris Harris and Simon Stead. They were superb and handled the pressure really well I have never really been a fan of Stead's but this season he is making me lean more towards him. The commentators (Nigel Pearson?) and David Norris are a hoot. Norris is just so funny and tells it like it is no holds barred. More of that please. But I can live without Pearson's over the top comments about team GB. Yes they did really well but let's not get carried away. The final will be a different kettle of fish and could well sort the men from the boys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Not read all this thread but I have to say what a crap track that was There were more passes made because of mistakes caused by a poor track than anything else. What the hell is the point of having the best riders in the world and giving them a rutted, inconsistent surface to perform on I suggest whoever is responsible come to King's Lynn and takes lessons, and anyone who was at the Premier Chase will probably agree with me. Rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a61 Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Fantastic effort from the lads, especially young Bomber and Stead. I'm really proud of them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritPete Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 I just hope that the track in the final is a racing track rather than a gater's paradise but, the reports that I have heard, do suggest that although Wroclaw is a big fast track, overtaking is at a premium. I hope not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Davis Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Well done all of Team GB, especially Harris and Stead for stepping up to the plate Track was abit dodgy but apart from that it was good.. Just off to start the "Lukas Dryml dirty rider" thread now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panthers Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Can not wait to watch the replay tomorrow what a meeting for team gb peopel sayong that they was not going to to do it and they have profron us all wrong and for the good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbit Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 (edited) ...can't see Suchanek providing much of a benefit for the Pirates! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Eight pages before someone mentions us...was feeling neglected. Thanks Andy! Sorry for anyone that follows the Poole update site I`m drinking a Howcroft vineyard red <{POST_SNAPBACK}> After the first few heats I started on something Snob...first thing in the wine rack whatever it was! Cya on the 11th Aug! Congrats to Team GB and I will happily eat my words but I had thought we were cannonfodder for the Danes tonight but that was one gutsy display! Nice to go straight through to the final and some determined riding against a Danish team who seemed to panic and over-ride at various times. However...I do have serious worries about the weekend and don't realistically think we're going to make very much impact against 3 other first class sides. But forget that and I'm enjoying the moment. Hell, I'm even feeling benevolent towards Steady and he usually ranks high up on my most unrated riders list haha. : Roll on tuesday's meeting cos that one I can't call at all.... Oh and Sky...if you know what's good for you - get Floppy and NigelP back for the commentary again this week. Absolute class. More entertaining than some of the racing to be honest!

London Witch Posted July 31, 2005 Report Share Posted July 31, 2005 Thoroughly enjoyed that meeting, I was proud to be a Brit. It was almost worth not being there to hear the commentary from Floppy, how patriotic can someone be. Loved it when he was telling Lukas Dryml we all loved him, when it was Ales in the heat ! Bless.. Was good of Lee to wrap it all up in heat 24, so I could safely cheer Hans on to a win over Scott in heat 25. Well done lads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
