iris123 Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 The paying public are there to see riders race well i am it's the worse run off I've seen in attending speedway in 40 years I saw a run-off for a meeting in Ludwigslust a few years back between,i think Tobi Busch and Matze Schultz.They both rode round popping wheelies for 4 laps.Some said it was an absolute disgrace others said it was the best thing they had ever seen......

manchesterpaul Posted June 17, 2013 Report Share Posted June 17, 2013 Video of the 3rd place race-off between Andersen and MJJ on Saturday in Debrecen http://www.sportowef...breczynie-wideo :lol: The paying public are there to see riders race well i am it's the worse run off I've seen in attending speedway in 40 years Watch the very end of it. The crowd were applauding and cheering, they seemed to enjoy it. OMG! the rules say that riders are supposed to ride to the best of their abilities at all times, so time to chuck both out of the qualifiers and ban them for five years from competing in the SGP. OK on to being serious that was very entertaining and quite hilarious at the very end of the 'race' particularly when they crossed the finishing line. One can only imagine that the prize money for third place wasn't 'all that' lol. The crowd clearly absolutely loved it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 The paying public are there to see riders race well i am it's the worse run off I've seen in attending speedway in 40 years While I do see your point, 3rd place is an irrelevant, without looking up, who was 3rd in the other qualifier? The fans seemed to be cheering, clapping and laughing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they won`t-should get live updates from Esjberg but Lonigo seems always to be a problem. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hackett Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 A good line up, could be tough one for Kennett! Kennett will ride in the GP Challenge even if he gets 0,0,0,0,0 .... The FIM have decided that a GB rider will get a wildcard for the GP Challenge at Poole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers89 Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 I doubt that, they will give it to Harris. Not that he deserves it. Very Sad, but very true I'd rather not see a British Wildcard, and just let the 16 riders who qualify through merit, go through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smiles Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Łoktajew and Gołubowskij fell in the first arc. Replay the fourth It's raining harder and harder. In a repeat again fell Łoktajew of Gołubowskijem, but this time in the second bend. According to the speedway-forum.de, the competition was canceled.Replay tomorrow (Sunday) at 13:30.

Chris Brown Posted June 22, 2013 Report Share Posted June 22, 2013 Very Sad, but very true I'd rather not see a British Wildcard, and just let the 16 riders who qualify through merit, go through. Isn't it ridiculous that where riders have to go through a number of qualifying rounds to get to that point that a rider who has potentially already failed is put back in just because of the country the meeting is in. At the end of the day most fans are only interested in the riders from their club rather than than their country. Why not put another Poole rider in it, I suspect that would have a bigger impact on the crowd Whichever way its ridiculous 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Kennett can qualify as of right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
