KayJay Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Thanks swedebasher Registered with the site last night but couldn't post as I needed administrator approval first. Fingers crossed m8 Edit: Still unable to post, will try again later. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It sometimes takes a while to get approval. It all depends on our illustrious Webmaster who doesn't always get around to doing these things very quickly. I'm sure someone will see Swede's post before long and get in touch with you.

Tsunami Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Page back up and it would appear that as by magic Edinburgh have been replaced by Newcastle. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Heard this might happen on Sunday.

ajh Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Have to agree with Tsunami. Would of been laughable to include Pijper when he hadn't even ridden an official fixture for Edinburgh yet this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Shane Parker of course - everyone knows that . <{POST_SNAPBACK}> and here was me thinking his intials were JC, would that make Buster Chapman God though ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Third Man Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) Page back up and it would appear that as by magic Edinburgh have been replaced by Newcastle. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> any explanation for the change of mind? Just checked the site and no explanation, so does anyone have any idea, or it is it just a whim on somebodys part again?

ajh Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Might well have agreed with you if Workington had been treated in the same manner for the fours regarding Stonehewer. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Too true but two wrongs do not make a right. Didn't happen to agree with the inclusion of Stoney either. The only thing I can thing off is that Workington's change was "enforced" by injury whereas Edinburgh's team change was decided by the promotion and not "forced" on them so to speak I'm a fan of Pijper's as I think he's certainly one of the better riders who visit the NA but IMO it's laughable to other teams and riders who have competed all season for him to walk into such an event.

Bagpuss Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Lynn definitely have the easier group and I would fancy us to qualify from it. Would love to see Zorro v Nermark in the final! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As edinboro were the wild cards they are not subject to any qualifying criteria anyway Edited June 8, 2007 by The Third Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajh Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 so using that logic now that hansons fit, and not riding for workington, workington should be out of the fours? As edinboro were the wild cards they are not subject to any qualifying criteria anyway <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Fours - My personal opinion is that there should be a new qualifying line/date set for averages and the top 8 at this time get included. If a rider gets injured in that time then use the next in the averages or wait until his replacement has ridden a certain amount of matches e.g. 3 home/3 away However I don't think that will happen as the programmes have already been printed and lineups announced. Pairs - Whether wild cards or not, still don't think it would of been right for Theo to walk straight into that meeting when other riders (such as Henry & Franc) have ridden a full PL season. Right you lot better stop all the argueing or they'll move the meeting to Kings Lynn . <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Now there's a plan Always thought you spoke a lot of sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight_Lady Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 Heard this might happen on Sunday. Congrats to the promotion and BSPA for making the correct decision. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ohhh that is sooooooo funny. Yes two wrongs (the PL 4's being one of them) don't make a right but what a blooming farce. How long is speedway going to be run in such a mickey mouse and haphazard way. You can't announce teams on the website then delete them just like that. First the fours with it's no rules make it up as you go along mentality and now this. No sour grapes from me but if people are going to run things let's have the rules in place before decisions are made then we wouldn't have all this nonsense. Some things will never change so I won't hold my breath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
