BWitcher Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 By the way i know Emil is struggling with a shoulder problem but he and his team did not come out and say that is the reason for his non-appearance and there is a pointed quote on the competitions official website of “Please ask Emil’s team about the reasons of his absence. A few days ago we were sure that he would start in the final round but it won’t happen" Is all not rosy between Onesport and Emil now?

brandonbee48 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Starting gate invented 1933. Technology unchanged until now. Don't they have elastic bands in Sweden? I took my American wife to her first ever meeting, around this time last year, at Peterborough on Bank Holiday Monday. The riders came round to the tapes for heat 1 and the tapes froze As did we for the next 45 minutes whilst repairs were carried out. She was TOTALLY thrilled Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midland Red Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Jack, it's Smolinski, not Slominski Sam, it's Jepsen Jensen, not Jesper Jensen Overall I think there's been an improvement in commentary tonight compared with previous meetings with these two, and it can't help having reserves coming in all over the place and starting gates swopped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostwalker Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Official attendance 2798. Way too low to be acceptable. I personally had expected twice as many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Sublime team riding from Holder and Ward there. Something we so little of nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWitcher Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Official attendance 2798. Way too low to be acceptable. I personally had expected twice as many. Not bad for a challenge meeting. Obviously not all the Swedes are as gullible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 The FIM rulebook would of better use after you have finished sitting on the toilet. Is this an FIM meeting then??! Jack, it's Smolinski, not Slominski Sam, it's Jepsen Jensen, not Jesper Jensen Overall I think there's been an improvement in commentary tonight compared with previous meetings with these two, and it can't help having reserves coming in all over the place and starting gates swopped What about Ermolenko's 'Lagatu and Gerroff'!!??

manchesterpaul Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Excellent and effective team riding by the Aussies in heat 20. (yeah i'm watching after using live pause and i need a long advert break to catch up lol). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Brown Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Constant moaning about the commentary I guess maybe you would prefer that one of the other broadcasters was showing it instead of Eurosport ? Problem is they are the only one so maybe we should be supportive rather than complaining. These guys are relatively new to speedway commentary, Millard, Tatum, Pearson had many years experience and still talk crap half the time if you ask me Give them a break 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_Jones Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Holder is still a world class rider but he is riding very safe. Obvious he isn't mixing it as much as he used to. Maybe the terrible injuries he suffered last season still weigh on his mind ?.This may go some way to explaining Holder's current situation; http://twitter.com/Chris_Holder23/status/469432876283736064/photo/1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 Sorry Chris the least I expect is for the commentators to know the riders and how to pronounce their names. For heavens sake they told us at one point that Kenneth Bjerre was reserve, he's not only injured, he's 12 inches too short! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
