Jo_1515 Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 This year I really think Robbo would give it a good go! He deserves a go as well - he's the best up and coming Brit at the moment!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevH Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 I can't help thinking that commercial interests will have a bearing on the final deciision - so think about it - name two riders who come from well supported tracks who have no other representative. ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batesie Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 i think it should be Steady 3 times u21 champ and will create intrest from Sheff and Worky fans in particular and maybe go on then Stoney as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 To me it seems to be an obvious opportunity to give some GP experience to possible future contenders. It has to be David Howe and Simon Stead in my opinion as our top 'juniors'. These riders need experience at this level to bring them on and it would be interesting to see how they cope. To be honest I think they would still be a way behind, but it would be invaluable for them and auger well for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 20,000 cheering Scots, 10,000 Welsh and 13,000 English fans. Â Did you make these figures up Jo or are these right :?: (purely out of interest) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got it right last year with Lee Richardson giving him a chance to experience it at first hand before qualifying in his own right this year, who knows it could be the same for Steady! Â No-one else stands out as a wildcard for me really as I dont think its right to put in an experienced rider who will not ride at that level in the future. Being a way behind for the youngsters isn't what matters-its what they get the chance to learn for the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can make more noise that 35,000 Aussies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzybird Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 Thought so, there is no way on this earth 20,000 Scots would part with their money to come south (oh well with that comment I will no doubt be meeting a lot of Scots @ Cardiff this year , but I bet it's not when it's their round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzybird Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 lol I love you all really xx seriously though I can remember the names of the people I met, but the only person I think I would recognise would be Krissie :!: I take it @ Cardiff we are wearing our forum items :?: I just love my fleece and looking for a clever person to sew "Shazzybird" around the emblem, hopefully this will be done by June :!: That way the Scots will know who they have to buy a drink for to prove they are not tight  Right off to find the bunker (quickly) :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lioness Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Kevin!

shazzybird Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Lioness I leave the white stilletoes for the Essex gals' (no offence meant there to any girl from Essex) am closer to France than I am to Essex, keep a look out for a girl in Cardiff with Onions on a string round her neck :!: got the earrings right though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jungle Jake Posted May 7, 2003 Report Share Posted May 7, 2003 Stuart Robson should be the wild card - come on lets face it he's better than David Howe and Garry Stead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
