Starman2006 Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) So as people have been saying we should be doing better ? at last the penny has dropped Yes we should be doing better, we are a million miles away from what we was in 04, but we are not, why, because we don't have the calibra of rider coming through, we do not have riders with desire, we do not, have riders with ambition. and that appart from sponsorship is our problem. The USA were once a world force, they are not now, why? Edited January 18, 2014 by Starman2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Leslie Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 because we don't have the calibra So sponsorship from Vauxhall will solve everything? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because although we should be beating them we are not, and won't be unless our riders start showing some pride and Ambition and even then, that my not be enough..

stratton Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 So what was Middlo doing to beat them?Is that your goal? to beat them or other minor nations? have you no real long term vision? If we keep on plodding on doing what we doing we will never PROGRESS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 So what was Middlo doing to beat them? Trying to get Cook to treat the SWC seriously rather than using it to test engines!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but dropping Craig Cook who has ambition and has pride and wants to ride in the SWC? http://www.scotsman.com/sport/more-sport/motorsport/speedway-cook-blasts-team-gb-after-axe-1-3002612 Thats all crap. The riders want to do it, just read what they have to say when they start ranting on twitter. But you can hardly expect the likes of Barker and Bridger to turn up at the Marketa in Prague with 2 days notice and score big points. And how is dropping Cook after one, admittedly slightly disappointing meeting going to do anything to build for the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats offer is open to anyone. Sidney, starman2006 or someone else reading this. I say Rosco will do a better job than Middlo and have put £1000 down.

You are one very upset person, or you have a huge chip on your should re Neil. If we don't finish higher than 7th Rosco and all the riders want sacking forthwith.

I won't judge Rossiter on beating Neil, i will judge him on what he does longterm can he leave a legacy when he has gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't finish higher than 7th Rosco and all the riders want sacking forthwith. 1. What about Skidder? 2. I dont have a chip on my shoulder about Neil. I can justify everything I have an issue with him over. 3. So if Rosco finishes 7th he should be sacked? But Middlo who finished in 7th is wonderful and it's not his fault but the riders?

Gavan Posted January 18, 2014 Report Share Posted January 18, 2014 Rosco is a better motivator then Middlo that is without doubt. He wont just pick his favourites like Middlo did (Kennett) when the WHOLE speedway world knew it was wrong. He wont throw in riders at the last minute (Barker, Bridger) for an important meeting. He wont discard a rider after one poor meeting (Cook) who is a better rider than Bridger or Barker. Middlo made mistake after mistake but unless you are in Poole you don't think that. How can we come behind Latvia and USA and that be ok under Middlo but if Rosco does it its worth a sacking!!! Doesn't make sense!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
