SCB Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Looking at the line up, none of them. Jesus! Adam McKinna Christian Hulshorst Jack Hargreaves Luke Priest Gary O'Hare Matyas Hlavacek Aidan Collins Tony Atkin Lee Smart A bunch of nobodies and NL riders. And after the last but one Telford where they fiddled things to make sure Stekkers won, I won't ever be returning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not always the best speedway, but I'm not expecting a GP Final! And I thought Smoli is the reigning Champ?

T.N.T. Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 Would have thought that former winner Graham Jones would have been offered a place in this .... he certainly lives close enough and even today would be among the favourites Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brummie Kev Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) Looking forward to this, at the end the day its just a bit of fun and its not all about the line-up. Someone like Tony Atkin is ideal for Telford with his experince on Ice and the fact in paired up with Eddie Kennett to the pairs wins in 2007 and 2008. You want riders that know what they are doing on ice and can entertain the crowd, so in that regard its a good line-up. The defending Brits Open Champion Martin Smolinski is back to defend that so It should be a good fun day. A chance to catch up with other fans and enjoy the smell and noise, thats why I enjoy indoor events. Telford is such a nice place, with a very good shopping centre, parks and plenty of places to eat. This year in the International Centre right near the Ice Rink theres a Classic Off Road and Road Racing show between 10 and 3.30pm, Adults £10, Kids go free. Links about it below. http://www.southwatereventgroup.com/classic-off-road-&-racing-show http://www.classicoffroadshow.com/ Edited February 11, 2011 by Brummie Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beeone Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 I'm going, though to be honest if I had not already paid for the tickets I wouldn't be bothering. I am pretty down on speedway at the moment to be honest, the missus says she is not going even though she has a ticket, so I will probably have one spare if anyone wants it.

robert72 Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Just got back, it was just ok, didnt bother getting evening ticket, first half entertainment was barker coming out giving it some riding up to the tapes for his first race and looking a plonker in every race. martin and eddie were great entertainment, the first part was enough, think each race should of been 6 laps, would i go again next year, No but i did enjoy it for what it was today.

vog Posted February 13, 2011 Report Share Posted February 13, 2011 Was a laugh, as it always is. Nothing massively serious, and lots of laughs. As for the individual meeting, Atkin was a deserved winner, and you could tell how much it meant to him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobC Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 A very long but fun day out.Left home at 8am and back home at 2am. 1st time back at Telford for over 10 years.Great to meet up with so many friends.From Plymouth to Berwick and most places in between. Well done to Tony Atkin for his win,thoroughly deserved. Loved Smoli and friends for their entertainment before and after races.They were clearly having fun. Now,can we PLEASE get on with the 'real' thing? Hope to see a lot of folk at Scunny for the Benfund meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semion Posted February 14, 2011 Report Share Posted February 14, 2011 A Welsh winning weekend all round eh?! Commiserations to my Scottish mates of course! Must make up a little for the dicking you got the weekend before, isnt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the individual meeting, Atkin was a deserved winner, and you could tell how much it meant to him! Agreed. It isn't for the purists but the smell is good and the meeting with friends is the bestest xx. Tony really wanted the win. And Martin in 2nd place (only dropping a point to Tony) was a good result. Eddie came out a gave it his all - some good and not so good races - but had me peeking out from behind my programme at times as he seemed to be to fast, scary stuff!. And Ben, I think he was missing the shale!! Good day overall, but as Bob says - lets get the real thing moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
