EnglishRoundabout Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 KKS used to threaten to go to all sorts of away matches when he/she suppported Peterborough, but never showed up.

stratton Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 No way was crump even one of the top 10 riders in the world in 82. In 76 he made the podium due to a mauger ef, and in a field missing the reigning champ. A legend no doubt,and under a gp system he would surely have picked up a top 3 finish in 75. But ward should certainly achieve more than Phil did imho. Are you for real Crump was a top BL rider i would say 1974 to 83.’ok after the Ashby injury in 77 he was not as good but was still some rider.He regrouped and even in the Penhall/Carter final he was riding well anough to get a place i think you under rate him.You said you went to Hyde Rd in the Carter era Crump always did well there in the Collins Pomp Crump could beat him no worries and that was an achievement .Also he beat your other underachiever( i rated him )(Carter)regularly beat him at the shay and at the abbey.You know your stuff but Crump snr was not a also ran quality i personally think he was better than Adams in 75/76 he should of won a title, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YerRopes Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) I note that you couldn't answer a simple question as to where you stand at WR...why ? I assume it's because we all know that you never leave your bedroom - there's the dreaming of Kenneth to start with and no doubt waiting for Daddy to impart more news Edited June 25, 2015 by Yer Ropes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

van wolfswinkel Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 We're not talking about Football mate, when I started to go back to speedway, mid /late 80's Oxford were a top team and only a short trip up the road, which I made most weeks because i enjoyed speedway and went as a neutral, not to glory hunt, Swindon are my team win lose or draw, even when suffering back to back wooden spoons and relegation.... Spurs and football have nothing in common. You still get a few peeps from Reading, Oxford and Bristol that go to the Abbey. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YerRopes Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Silly. Report has been made....Lowering yourself to talk about my parents....Be ashamed of yourself.

Jacques Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 As long as it made someone laugh.... Are you for real ?i would think Ward would be thinking get sharp earn money do you think if he rides for Poole next year is his NO 1 priority?.He needs to get back in the GP series and that will be pretty difficult really hard! earning pocket money for Poole in 2016 won't be his priority. The two most humourless members of the forum, mates too I suspect? ....I would have included Steve0 in that a year or so ago, but he seems to have reached an epiphany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waiheke1 Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 In World championships I agree. I just remember one period when he was practically unbeatable week after week and the article was based on league form. Crumpie will never go down as an all time great because his World Championship form couldn't match his league form. Ward should surpass his (an Leigh Adams')achievements in time if he keeps his nose clean. I just don't think he's quite there yet. Maybe he had a purple patch, but pretty sure in 82 he wasn't in the top half dozen in the averages over the season I agree though his world championship record does not reflect his quality, certainly in the 80s he bowed out in the Aussie final when he was one of their two world class riders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prob alongside the likes of Morton Anderson etc. Round Hyde rd in the 80s he wasn't a standout. Never made the podium in blrc, though managed a second in the 84 overseas final. He wasn't a rider you feared, unlike Carter gundersen or nielsenn, or even penhall ors Moran. I'm sure in the 70s his record round Hyde rd would be much better. So clearly he is a Swindon and Australian legend and a very good rider. But for me not an all time great, which Darcy has the potential to be (or he may end up a kelly Moran, without the reputation for being a lovely bloke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YerRopes Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 As I said report has been made about your previous post. Considering you are Over 40 you don't act like it. Thanks for the three unpleasant PM's Gater... BTW, you still haven't answered as to where you stand when you go to WR..or where you stood when you were a Swindon fan last year.. Just grow up will you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Could somebody talk me through the Swindon team declarations over the last two weeks explaining which guest replaced which rider and why? I'm confused as AM's in then PK's in but both don't ride even though there is nothing wrong with them. Also what's this "reverted" on the team sheet means.

MattK Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 My understanding is this... Kildemand’s temporary spell came to an end so we redeclared with Miedzinski. Miedzinski was deemed to be injured, so we reverted back to the previous declaration, which allowed us to have a guest, for Kildemand, last week. Now Miedzinski is "fit" again we have redeclared with him back in the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now Miedzinski is "fit" again we have redeclared with him back in the team. But Adrian wasn't injured last week. He's been riding in Poland for a couple of weeks now and rode in Czech league. He didn't want to ride in the UK. Kildemand also definitely not injured so he should have been riding or PL rider last week. No wonder people are getting confused.

If Kildemand was fit and not riding for Swindon, could be deemed to have withheld service hence the facility I assume 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 If Kildemand was fit and not riding for Swindon, could be deemed to have withheld service hence the facility I assume But his 28 day contract surely would have come to an end so it should have been Adrian back or 28 day ban for him. Kildemand always made it clear to Swindon that he didn't want to ride any longer than the 28day injury cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
