Mark Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Ref has had a shocker. Emil is just plain dangerous and a big crash waiting to happen. People moan about Pedersen but Emil is in a different league. He aint dirty just totally reckless, chases back wheels, come hard under riders into bends.

Never heard anybody complain about him. He's box office, thrilling and a breath of fresh air. Better one Emil than a thousand Bjerres or Jonssons.

home straight Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Weird one there. Emil didn't seem to be riding off a line but neither did Lindback. A coming together but the right exclusion, I feel. It was weird. In real time I thought it was Holder's fault, but on the replay you could see it was nothing to with him, just Sayfutdinov and Lindback arrived at the same place at the same time. Tough call, but on balance I think the ref got it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpartialOne Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Nooooo! honest he doesn't. It's wins, second places, third places, fourth places, non-finishes. Correct. If equal number of wins then it goes to who has the most 2nds, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manchesterpaul Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Woweeee! clearly the GP Gods have decided it's Greg's year. Every time has he a bad meeting his closest challengers do too. Now second GP running after an atrocious start he qualifies for the semi-finals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattK Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Referring to who? Sayfutdinov obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandonbee48 Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Sayfutdinov obviously. I knew who you meant. See what i said above about Ove and Briggo. 9 world titles between them and trust me , it was "outta my ####### way" every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manchesterpaul Posted August 13, 2011 Report Share Posted August 13, 2011 Not sure how much or if Sam gets paid to plug Kandysoft every week or whether it's even permitted to do so. However, if the software is up to what mine does i'd strongly sugggest Sam speaks up and passes the information on to the studio team a lot earlier. If i can type, as slow as i do and post on a forum all the details and permutations before Sky mention it on air (or don't mention as is often the case), then surely Sam (if like my info in front of me, all is visible) can mention to his team the correct scenarios? If you have and see the info please Sam let the viewers know. Any newcomers watching will just think what on earth! when they keep retracting and rehashing what is at stake. Having said that they have improved massively this year and greatest thanks to Sky for us having a studio team. Worth every penny of my subscription to Sky for the sport.

Better one Emil than a thousand Bjerres or Jonssons. I agree box office and a superb rider but he will have eventually, or give somebody else, a trip to the hospital resulting in a very long stay. Most of his crashes are where he cleans someone up entering a bend and takes another rider with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
