SCB Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 We had a slight chance with Russia in the mix but not now, its like a straight match between us and Poland and they have better riders. How did Russia being in the mix make it any easier for us? Russians being there or not, we have to beat the Poles more than they beat us (not 100% true but still...). If you had Greg Laguta in the race beating us and the Poles it would be 2 and 1 for us and Poland, with a blank it'll be 3 and 2 instead. Makes no difference.

weatherwatcher Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I hope that at 6 pm, when you put your telly on to Eurosport to watch the race off, and you find out that are not being shown on there, you will say sorry and turn over to Quest. It is all part of the same group that Eurosport are in and when they have something that they think is better to be shown on Eurosport, they switch it over to Quest, they have already done it once with the GP's. I can assure you all that both tonight and Saturdays are being shown on Quest starting at 6pm. Switch your box on and take a look at tonights listings. Even the terrible two when comontating from King Lynne told everyone that they would be switching over to Quest. This is not a joke belive me. It is not April Fools day.

oldtimer Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 Heaven forbid it happens but we could end up with 2 rider races if a USA, GB or Polish rider gets injured. What was once the best competition of the season is fast becoming a farce. It always was a farce with the joker and outclassed teams in the qualifiers.

Yes i see your point, i was thinking another team in the mix may make it tougher for the poles. Edited June 11, 2015 by foreverblue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReturn Posted June 11, 2015 Report Share Posted June 11, 2015 I suppose Mr Fence Sitting Suck Up will waffle on about everything being wonderful in the commentary later. Moving forward to next year, maybe the FIM need to introduce a rule that if a nation fields an understrength team (i.e. 3 riders) they are removed from the event the following tournament. My preference for the SWC. Make it bi-annual. Five man teams, with the fifth rider being a reserve that can take up to four rides of the managers choosing, but only one ride per block of four heats. The host nation are only seeded to the race-off (semi-final), this ensures the home nation get to cheer their team on, but they do have to earn their right to the final. The other finalists are the winners of the two quarter finals, then the top two from the semi-final. The Semi-finalists are the runners up from the quarter-finals and then highest scoring third place team from the two quarter finals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which fence sitting suck up you do mean? - you could perm any one from three or four. Smashy and Nicey clone Andy Jaye will call it "an incredible night of speedway" no matter what happens. He always does! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
