Terrace Grumbler Posted November 5, 2015 Report Share Posted November 5, 2015 Would love robbo back...and a dream team of... Steve Aarnio Robbo Covatti Barker Ellis 3 pointer Just fits i think Sadly, Robbo is too injury prone: also, iirc he left because Redcar would pay him more, and I can't see Newcastle getting involved in a bidding war any time soon. If you're referring to Ben Barker, he very rarely shows up at Brough when in the opposition*, so why should he want to travel up on a weekly basis? Your team would be fine (and perhaps more manageable financially) if Wilko replaced Robbo and Summers Ludde was included for Barker. I don't know how the compulsory wobbler system will work but it would be nice to get Lewis Rose in the team. El Grumblero * Off topic, he did rock up for the so-called test match against Australia the other year. I challenge Ranting Roy to explain how he maintained such a fever pitch of excitement at what must be one of the worst matches in the annals (use your spell checker) of Byker speedway history.

Because that is his job.. Plus it was Great Britain beating Australia.. Even the best Sky commentators make dull football matches sound good.. It's called professionalism. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That match was a case of the Emperor's new clothes - the Australian team was so under-strength it was a walkover ("Test" match, ha) and an insult to the paying public - I for one go to speedway to watch racing, not just to see one team win.

Terrace Grumbler Posted November 6, 2015 Report Share Posted November 6, 2015 Not disagreeing with you about how meeting turned out.. Your question was how Roy maintained excitement.. Roy is the best presenter I can remember at Newcastle - he is very good indeed. Against that background, what I'm saying is that at the match in question he gilded the lily - it was clear to everyone there that it was a no-contest but he (perhaps bravely) kept on as if it were a nail biter; the problem was the same as when Sky football commentators describe a dull goalless draw as if it were the 1966 World Cup final - everyone could see that it's just hyperbole, and in that - one - instance I think that only Roy was, or was pretending to be, excited. My (entirely tongue in cheek) question was how he had the chutzpah to do it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
