spanner47 Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 (edited) I demand a re-think,there`s every chance the better half will drag me round the Trafford Centre for the first half of Saturday, can we start a petition. I hate shopping, but that would be more appealing than watching the practice, went to one once, never again I was bored out of my mind.

foreverblue Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Â Seems Hans Nielsen has taken a dim view of Nicki going off on his hols during World cup week, I applaud him for doing so and lets face it Pedersens form has taken a bit of a nose dive this season, certainly in SGP. Never been a fan of Nicki myself and i have no doubt team unity is better without him and the riders can overtake on the outside! The problem is even a off form Nicki is probably better than Bjerre.

mikebv Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Jesus,what's the big deal about parking,if you don't want to use the arrangements that have been provide,pretty sure you could still park in the street within reasonable distance of the Stadium.They not going to shut down Manchester for this event. Cannot believe Belle Vue expect people to actually walk to the stadium and have to park their cars on adjoining streets out of the restricted zones...!!😀 Â I don't know, whatever next? Â They should have held the event at Buxton. Loads of space up there to park your car next to (and inside) the 'stadium' (Just watch out for the sheep shat)..!!!😂 Â It is probably a mark of where the sport is when situations like 'blocking roads' are such a novelty that people complain about not being able to rock up and fall out of the car into the stands/grassy knoll, like they do every week.. Â At sports events in residential areas, permit parking/restricted access is the norm, (ffs even Stockport County do it)!! Â Lets just be pleased so many are attending what is hopefully a great event and it can be used as a boost for the sport in this country.. Â And guess what? I would also get there early too as quite a lot of people are going to the same place and there might be a queue.....! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Or they could have done what I did, phone the stadium and get tickets to park next door to the NSS for just a tenner for the two days. Â I can turn up at 6.30 and roll straight in to my parking spot. Â Lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to park at the Etihad, 8 minutes by bus or a 20 minute walk away.So if it's a nice day should be a pleasant walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use updates as a 'programme' at meetings to keep track of scores. But they're usually a couple of heats behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
