Catch Me If You Can Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 As a neutral I really enjoyed last nights meeting.A superb advert for speedway.Well done to all the riders involved.Hope tonights will be as good. Yes that's 3 good PL meetings on Sky this year including Scunthorpe and Berwick. Sky should ditch Elite and do deal with Premier for 2014!

SomersetBlue Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 That was a brilliant meeting, great racing. The only thing I think was wrong was the disqualification of grajczonek watched on the sky camera at the start line and sneddon should have been excluded in my opinion. That decision changed the match on its head. Â Also the track was slick but produced some brilliant racing and also made some of the fans look like mud monsters by the end of the meeting.

red6 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Brilliant meeting on sky last night and great racing! Having read many comments regarding the track being slick are certainly correct, however adding dirt to the track doesn't make it automatically grippy, thats down to how it's prepared by the track staff and if it was prepared yesterday accordingly there could have been a grippy track!

screm Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Once again the PL has delivered a great speedway meeting,by now Im sure Sky can see where the real entertainment lies,and it sure aint the EL. Â Also,whether his team is involved or not you can always guarrantee that Rossiter will make a total pillock of himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

womble53 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) it's just a matter of finding more consistency and maybemore inspiration from the management. Gary seems a lovely guy, but he ain't no SAF! Â You clearly don't know Garry very well to make a statement like that...............next time make the effort to find out before posting presumptive drivel Edited June 12, 2013 by womble53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msc1874 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Â Â Tabaka hit Nielsen much harder in heat 14 but Nielsen stayed on. Maybe he should have slid off and tried to get a fellow racer excluded. Â I stand by my opinion that Sneddon gambled and won this time. Â Is that your opinion or josh G? I am pretty sure they were his exact words... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drew2 Posted June 12, 2013 Report Share Posted June 12, 2013 Â Â Is that your opinion or josh G? I am pretty sure they were his exact words... Â Mine thanks. Couldn't tell you what his words were to be honest wasn't really listening to the interview. If they were the same then great minds and all that..... :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â CC had one race (13 I think) where he was slightly moving. His first couple there was no movement. Even in heat 15, if he was moving, he didn't benefit as Doyle passed him at the end of lap one. Then Cookie used every ounce of craft and ba!!s to come back underneath Doyle at the second lap, so it's not as if he got away with a roller is it? Â Or were people wanting him excluded therefore taking the spectacle of the evening away? Â Think instead of focusing on slight movement (which a lot of riders were doing, not just CC) then focus should be on the skill of a lot of the riders on show on Tuesday.

Brooksy Posted June 13, 2013 Report Share Posted June 13, 2013 (edited) You clearly don't know Garry very well to make a statement like that...............next time make the effort to find out before posting presumptive drivel  So he's not a lovely guy then?  No, I don't know Garry well, just what I see as an ordinary supporter at meetings, but I don't know Sir Alex either, yet I'm pretty sure which one I would prefer to be managing my team! Maybe Garry is an inspirational manager, but that certainly didn't come across from his TV interviews on Tuesday. Not 'presumptive drivel', just an observation. But don't ask me....I'm only a supporter!! Edited June 13, 2013 by Barney Rebel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I do not think anyone is questioning Cookies abilty just the movement at the starts and i thought he moved in two or three of them...the rules as i understand are for the riders to be still at the tapes. Maybe many riders are guilty of this but the Sky cameras picked this up with the close up of the starts. Â All in all a very good meeting and a good advert for the sport.

Correct I am not questioning Craig's ability,only what I observed regarding his starts.I Personaly think too many races are recalled for anticipating the start but not actually rolling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
