Ross Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 From what Scott Nicholls said in the speedway star he is using last years bikes so maybe thats a good thing....Both him and bomber have to show what they are made of and i think you can be sure they wont hold back. Just a quick question though !! If Scott and Bomber finish in the top 3 will it stop people having a go at them and there form in the gp`s?? course not ...

Gemini Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Just a quick question though !! If Scott and Bomber finish in the top 3 will it stop people having a go at them and there form in the gp`s?? course not .. Well, you've answered your own question - no of course not. However, it's a bit different finishing in the top 3 in that line up to the quality of riders in a Grand Prix so they jolly well should finish in the top 3....or thereabouts.

LisaColette Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Must admit i am looking forward to this The best riders Harris /Nicholls out of form Screen /Rico trying to comeback then you got the young guns King /Bridger/woofman and Kennet trying to step up.... got all the makeings of a good meeting . The big prize of course is the wildcard for cardiff what is one or the only good thing that the speedway rulers have come up with in the last few years . Me too! Should be a really good meeting, can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fourentee Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 I have always liked silence in preference to boo-ing. Boo-ing lets the rider know exactly what you think and instills a competitive streak, ( Nikki and Hans relish it ), but complete silence can be very effective and powerful as well. Nikki is always booed (panto style) at Wolves. A few years back some Wolves fans tried for the reverse psychology approach, cheering him to the echo in the hope that it would sow some vague seeds of disquiet and put him off. Interesting theory. Didn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Team Man Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Hehehe...Steady on, you're showing your age now. Mind you, I remember Milton Keynes too.... but didnt know Jas back then. I was with MK from start to finish from Groveway through to Elfield Park Like his Dad Mick, everyone seems to label him as a hardcase... but he has always been super with myself and my family. Haven't seen his Dad for some years now, is he alright do you know, I never ask Jason about his Dad when I see him, perhaps I should Wish Jas all the luck in the world....you never know, stranger things have happened in speedway. He may just be near the top come the end of the night. Can just see it now... "And the Wildcard for the British GP at Cardiff.... Jason Bunyan". Yeah, that would be good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BritPete Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Scott Nicholls showed much improved form in Sweden tonight, winning the last heat against Jonsson, to earn his team an unexpected draw against Dackarna. (With Shields finishing third) He will be the one to beat tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 He will be the one to beat tomorrow! He always was wasn't he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomcat Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) Hiya Team Man. Which MK track was it that was in that bowl... thats the last one I saw as a rider. Old Pete T'Good called me up, 4.30pm, asks if I could get to MK to ride that eveing.... Of course Pete I said, I'll just chuck the bike back together and trundle on up.... Those were the days, Pete never ever gave me any warning, just used to call and ask if I wanted a ride. Pity he wasnt more amicable towards us 2nd halfers, he bloody charged us to race, yet we were making him money, so to speak, as we were his 2nd half entertainment. We didnt even get a penny...... but we all did it, as it meant getting some track time and also put us in the shop window. Oh for those days again.... warm sunny evenings, sitting on the terraces outside the Raceway Tavern at Purfleet, chatting with Bodger Garret, God Rest His Soul, then going back to his sponsors place to heal his wounds...specially the night that Jamie Luckhurst ran over him and left a tyre mark right across his chest.... and doing Bodgers knee in as well. My Mrs endeared herself to the lad, by being the only one to do something, she grabbed a wet tea towel and stuck it in the freezer, then put it over the knee.... that kept him on track as he would have been laid up for a few days otherwise. Unfortunately you dont get that cameraderie these days. Havent seen Jas or Mick for a few years now...sadly. I was in contact with Jas through e-mails a while back, but I moved away over here to the Emerald Isle and lost touch. I should get off my backside and drop him a mail again....getting lazy in my old age. I didnt realise that Mick hadnt been with Jas at the tracks.... hope he's ok. I used to love it back then, lots of fun, right through from the fans to the riders.... none of this stuff we're seeing now....all aggro and having a pop at eachother. I know Jas is getting a bit long in the tooth now, but he can still mix he when he wants to. I still have the memory of him slamming in 15 points at Belle Vue, when he was with the Witches, it was something else that night... and to be there in the pits to see his smiling face was something special. Its been a real privelige to chat with you.... small world and all that. Edited May 19, 2009 by tomcat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gonzo441 Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 top man Just 1 thing! stoney as reserve? surely not? were riding against birmingham tomorrow. Hmmm. Where did I get that from? I'm sure he was in the original list along with Bunyan as the reserves. Ok I'll change it so that both reserves are blank and then they can be filled out as and when/if.

Steve Shovlar Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Forecast is very good. Sunny and warm with lighter winds. Should be a cracker of a meeting tonight. Lets hope for plenty of controvesy, great racing, and let the best man win. It would like to see a young gun make Cardiff. Good luck to Eddie Kennett. I think he stands an excellent chance.
