SUPERACE Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Word of mouth - BSPA offices. Crump and Andersen riding. Any rider who does not have a valid reason for his absence should be fined and suspended for 7 days even if it includes missing the GP. They are cheating the fans. Cant ban them from the GP.

parklife Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Isn't it right that there was a 3 year lease or something? So that 3 years is now up & a reapplication has to be made. I take it some of the reasons may be the ongoing bugbear of noise. Really annoying that one, all these complaints about 2 hours a week are pathetic. I seem to recall Nigel Pearson did his own personal noise test by the student halls not so long back & couldn't hear a bloody thing from the stadium. Problem being, if they refuse permission, the council then have to turn down other sports that create noise such as football. This was also stated when the application was first heard. Also bear in mind the fact that the University complained of noise on a night when the meeting was rained-off. I am optimistic that permission will be granted. Perhaps evidence from the public enquiry of 1986 could be pulled out. This ruled in favour of the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uk_martin Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 A planning application is decided on planning grounds only. Who rides in this meeting will have absolutely no bearing on the outcome. Planning applications are decided by PEOPLE. Worse than that, they are decided upon by people who are POLITICIANS. Politicians are just as capable of being influenced by events as anyone else. Tell the Council that Speedway brings presitige and prosperity to the City and that turns them on. Put a Speedway event on that associates the name of the City with a joke you will get the reverse reaction. Don't for one minute think that in the world of politics, hard facts are all that matter. Subjective opinions (especially the vote catching kind) count for a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kick these selfish scumbags out of British Speedway once and for all. What un utterly ridiculous comment! You are the kind of idiot that will see great riders walk away from British Speedway. Hans's crash was nasty and he was in genuine discomfort, but that doesn't matter does it? He should ride regardless because you said so, whether he is hurt or not.

What's the weather like over there in Germany Hans? It's nice and sunny here. The fact that this 'great' gater has pulled this stunt 3 times in the last month is what sticks in the throat. He rides as and when he pleases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh of course, because he owes the BSPA a lot cos they treated him so well at P'boro. Why would Hans ride through pain in a meeting that holds no real relevance to him? He's been nothing but a model pro at Cov, as a Bees 'fan' you should know that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Ridgeon Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Or crash in the GP. The risk is no greater tonight than any other. Actually the risk is less tonight as Lukas Dryml isn't riding Yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21st century heathen Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Isn't it right that there was a 3 year lease or something? So that 3 years is now up & a reapplication has to be made. This is their second season of three, so a little breathing space. Cant believe Swiderski and Gjedde are ahead of him. Swidders is a bit of a dark horse for this meeting. He loves to creep around the curb, and that will usually work nicely at PB. He's been nothing but a model pro at Cov, as a Bees 'fan' you should know that. Well, apart from the fact that he won't represent the club as their top rider in this meeting. Actually the risk is less tonight as Lukas Dryml isn't riding Yet Good shout.

ballinger Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Wonder where Hans had his fitness test?? Germany?? Sums up this embarrassment of a season really. Kick these selfish scumbags out of British Speedway once and for all. Just encoding Hans' crash from Belle Vue. Will get it on the Bees website as soon as. Then maybe folks will believe he is injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century heathen Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 First time I've ever known a rider be kept out of a meeting two days after recieving a dead arm. If he has a more significant injury than that I apologise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seb the Snail Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Well I was going to tip Hans for this, but with him out of the way and doubts over Crump's fitness too then I don’t really have a clue. Perhaps Leigh will win it for the first time? It’s amazing that he hasn’t ever done so given his domestic record over the years, but in truth he’s been pretty abject in the meeting in the past. If he “wants it” enough then he must go close, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a shock winner tonight. Puk or Swiderski possibly? I would have gone for Holder, but he couldn’t even win the PLRC last season and has bigger fish to fry this week. Hope it’s a good one anyway. Up the Robins!

Little-End Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Crump may be injured , But I for one would`nt bet against him , He was in pain when he was`nt Racing at BV on Monday, But it seemed to have been put to one side when he was skiddin !, On a difficult Track , he made passing look SO easy - Total respect. By the way - What is is the Danish remedy for a "Bruised Ego " ???? Lucky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
