Shadders Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Reasonably pleased to see a Rocket there (Kennett), but I reckon he'll be blown away at Cardiff. I'd much preferred to see Tai there, but I guess we'll have to wait another year for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Well done Eddie Kennett. Cardiff wild card and fully deserved after the debacle of last season. Edited May 29, 2008 by Steve Shovlar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blazeaway Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Well that was not a bad prediction by me. Hardly Mystic Meg though! Well done Ed, fully deserved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Gutted. One consolation is that Eddie is an ex Rye rider...well done Eddie. At one point I thought both would go through because they both beat Bomber....however fantastic performance from Tai Woffinden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Authorised Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Dunno about that, but was there ever a more over rated British speedway rider? 5 times a British Champion, you can only beat what is put in front of you. Generally weak final - 7 non-EL riders - if you go back to the 80's, you would struggle to see a non-top flight rider there. Well done Scott!!! I wonder what Subedei is going to call him now??

I don't know, I am quite proud of myself have you ever seen some of my predictions in the past , anyway Well Done Edward Kennett, mind you I would like to have seen Tai in there.

SuzieQ Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Well Done to Scott - now officially Britain's Number 1 - again!! also a huge well done to Edward - I look forward to cheering you on at Cardiff (without freaking out my cat!)

superguest Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Well done to Edward on getting the Wildcard. I think its a bit too early for Tai anyway. Well done Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biddows Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Dunno about that, but was there ever a more over rated British speedway rider? Simon Stead. If all the hype was to be believed, he would be world champion by now. I can't say I'm entirely excited by the result. Fair play to Kennett for taking advantage of the final after not doing so well in the qualifiers, but he really got there by the skin of his teeth. Oh well, them's the rules. I would have much preferred to see Tai grab the wildcard place - I just don't see Kennett learning anything much from it. He's already had the chance to experience the GP atmosphere. Nicholls winning was no great surprise - experience was the deciding factor at the end of the day, but I would contest that he was possibly the least talented rider in the final race. But like I said, more experienced. I can see Tai walking this event in years to come, though hopefully there'll be a few riders coming up to challenge him.

Subedei Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Dunno about that, but was there ever a more over rated British speedway rider? Yes, unSteady. But the new British champion gives him a run for his money. And increasingly it's obvious that Harris is over-rated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much preferred to see Tai there, but I guess we'll have to wait another year for that. I was so pleased to see him get that far. He is a rising star that's for sure & has bags of potential waiting to be let loose, and I am sure we will all watch with great interest his progress.

Tai's time will come. Last time Ed was at Cardiff he came out as a reserve and beat Greg, so he might do ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Kev Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 (edited) Well done to Scott Nicholls, no surprise really. Good Luck to Eddie Kennett at Cardiff, wished Tai would have got the Wildcard but even being there as a reserve will be good learning experience for the future being around the best . Creditable performance from Adam Roynon aswell. Shame this meeting wasnt on Sky. Edited May 29, 2008 by Brummie Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted May 29, 2008 Report Share Posted May 29, 2008 Simon Stead. If all the hype was to be believed, he would be world champion by now. Well what about Lewis Bridger for one of the most over hyped rider, no where near the last chance race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
