Its a good job Rooboy can gate  ;)

:oops: Not on Saturday he couldn't!!!

No excuses - it just wasnt gonna be his night. His biggest meeting of his career to date and he's gutted. Things just didnt come together for him.

But we had a good weekend but not as good as the lot Chris talks about below:

A few of the crew from the SOS team went over to Vojens to support Lukas and to show the thanks for the support he handed over his 2nd place trophy to Laura Pollard who is probably the biggest Dryml fan over here and whose family done so much for the Dryml family in their most needed time last year

 

A terrific result for all of us in Team Dryml

4 very proud Oxford and dryml fans - wonder how long they will have their smiles firmly attached to their faces for.

 

It was great to meet you - again and again and again!!! And Laura you are a very lucky girl - now you need to keep it polished. :D

I hope Keeno stayed awake for the meeting. The only person I know who can sleep in his seat at Cardiff and miss 8 races

KK and Freddie Yes, but Bjerre hasn't got a hope, no way will they have 5 Danes.

Why not???? Bet if 5 Brits qualified, it would be allowed :rolleyes:

 

Then again, there's more chance of Santa Claus, Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny, Harry Potter, The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Little Red Riding Hood being in the GP's than that happening :D

According to the interview I read with his own words..."he felt no pressure at the SWC. Gollob looked after the whole team and took the pressure for them".

I can believe that and I've seen nothing yet to show that KK can handle it well at all. He either rides very badly or gets mad !

 

Well, that's okay then, since there should be minimal pressure on him in the GPs, for the first season, at least. Once again, most of the pressure will be on the established Tomasz Gollob, with Kasprzak left to his own devices.

If there's one rider I would say folds under pressure, it is your own much-loved former British champion, who always manages to lose out on a place in the top eight in the final GP of a season.

Looks as if Kyle Legault broke his wrist in the first heat fall. Had to ice it all night and it's no wonder he didn't do much.

 

Looks as if he may be out for the rest of the season....

 

Tiger Tom.....

TT sorry to hear that. He didnt appear to be showing it on the night but obviously able to hide it well.

Shame his season is over but better to miss a few meetings than break it at the beginning of the season.

Better still - not to have broken it at all!! :rolleyes:

If it is broken in a bad way then he will miss out on the Premier League Riders Championship. So what looked to be the most exciting time of his speedway career will turn out to be the most disappointing! I'm gutted for the lad!

Sorry TT - I should have checked what he had coming up rather than generalise!!

I do hope he heals quickly :)

No problem with 5 Danes if he had qualified by right, I'm just saying that means he will not be nominated. Maybe he should do a Greg Rusedski/Kevin Pietersen and find a long lost English granny.

Sandie,not a problem.....just gutted for him as I have watched him since he first rode here in Canada!

 

Latst is that nothing is boken but they suspect some nerve damage. lets hope it is caused by swelling and that he can ride in the PLRC. For the moment though he is out of action.

You surprise me, I wish you'd said that earlier...I've always had you down as a fan ! :P

You're quite probably right, I don't follow his individual career...certainly not as closely as you obviously do, so I couldn't say with any conviction.

However, he wasn't in this meeting, as you're well aware, so again I fail to see the relevance of your 'point'.

Actually I think the ref. bottled it big time in the heat where KB lost his permanent GP 2008 participation.

I've seen the incident several times on the TV now, and as I see it it should at least have been all 4 back.

 

Poor, very poor decission.

At the time most of us non-danes on the 2nd bend thought all4back or freddie excluded. after seeing the reply umpteen times i can only assume bates excluded KB as freddie was in front of him at the moment of impact. For those who didn't see the TV, KB fell when his handlebar got caught under the rear wheel guard of freddie's bike. Very harsh decision but it seems if a ref wants to get on in the world of gp's, he must exclude someone wherever possible, where as in league meetings it's all4back.

And why wasn't he in this meeting?

Does he believe it lies beneath his princely status? A status that the likes of yourself, terminally deluded to the end, are so quick to bestow upon one with such obvious and crude limitations.

You, clearly...but not me.

 

Ah, but that's the problem, you see? No one really cares, except for a select band of brothers and sisters that care about such things as honour and probity. But our band grows stronger by the day and eventually we'll have enough people to surround your citadel of shame and bring it crashing down around you. Then we'll build, you guessed it, the New Jerusalem from the rubble of the bastion of delusion.

Well he seemed happy enough.The Czech fans were on the track and were throwing him in the air as if he won.Wasn't sure about him in the run-off though as he went right across the track on the first bend.Looked like he tried to take Bjarne out to the fence,but maybe he just was a bit wild.But he was really impressive and gave Bjarne a hell of a race.

Pity about Kenneth.Think he was very hard done by.Lindgren took him out and he had nowhere to go but into the fence.Should have been all 4 back or Lindgren out imo.The points from that heat would have been enough for Kenneth.

.Still stick by what i said.All 4 back or Lindgren out
