Hodgy Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 What is the background to Hancock's injury? Stated a fall at home earlier this week dislocated shoulder, then popped out again during practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foamfence Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 I thought Cookie was more in the mix then last time he was at Cardiff. He had some close fast riding tonight, something he ducked out of last time (not that I could do it) Fantastic racing tonight, really close. Heat 11 was amazing, all 4 finishing really close. Well done Josh and Adam, both will have got something out of the meeting. About time BSPA got their finger out and really developed the younger riders by giving them more chance to race abroad. Josh and Adam have both had some Polish league involvement this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw42 Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 That's the point. Who allowed him to have his own lap of honour? Next thing is we'll have lap of honours for all "local' favourites at their home track, even if they finish 9th. It's a ridiculous gesture not a decent one. T*****. The point is the crowd clearly appreciated his gesture and they are the ones who shelled out good money for the meeting, so what's the problem? Honestly, do you really believe he was wrong to take half a minute to show his appreciation for the support? It looked to me like there were 30 or 40,000 who thought it was fine, that's what counts really. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seymour Dix Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Note to Brexit sec The Rt Hon D.Davis.MP. As part of Brexit deal please put a ban on Polish spectators from attending Britsh Speedway Grand Prix. I had one pi$$ed up Pole in front of me kept standing up and waving the Polish Flag, obstructing the view of those behind him including me. Requests to stop were ignored.

Hodgy Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 After a slow, nervous start I thought it was a very entertaining meeting. Some really scary racing - edge of the seat moments. Very pleased there were no major accidents and they all finished safe. Lovely Jubbly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starman2006 Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 'The sun' was advertising the meeting...... for Sunday. Is that no suprise for the SUN. I'd rather read the Beano. Note to Brexit sec The Rt Hon D.Davis.MP. As part of Brexit deal please put a ban on Polish spectators from attending Britsh Speedway Grand Prix. No, just stick them in there own compound.

keef robin Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 Another great day out, well done Doyley, looked down and out after first 2 heats, now leading GP. Best GP we've been to. Great atmosphere with all the Poles. Trains well organised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Not a bad gp tonight magic still in there the dude not a bad 1st effort at Cardiff Doyle is something else he deserves the title for grit effort and determination. Woffinden lacking the consistency out of the starts and is not with the grit of Doyle at the moment I think it's become a 3 horse race now the dude still the win a gp but got a feeling it will come That's his problem. A few years ago he couldn't miss a start and looked a world beater, whereas now he can't consistently buy a start and just pops up with the odd convincing race, much like anyone else tbh.

Its probably gone this year for him he's riding safe and staying out of trouble he would have made semis tonight if he had nt lifted coming out of 4th corner in his 4 th ride but that's the way it go es Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Steve is he really getting the massive cheers the commentators are telling us he is? Doesn't sound like it on TV to be honest.He was getting cheers, as expected being a "Brit", but most certainly it was nowhere near as loud as on previous seasons. A guy near us was booing him and nearly got into a punchup with some bloke with a Woofy cap on. Shows he has polarised some fans and around us there were others who sat quietly not cheering or booing at all. Doyle seemed to get the loudest cheers tonight, probably because he is bothered to ride in the UK and many feel he was robbed last year due to injury. Judging by the riders and racers, Woffindens time has now passed. He couldn't compete when it mattered.

Fromafar Posted July 22, 2017 Report Share Posted July 22, 2017 (edited) Some gtreat racing , well done PK tonight. Feel sorry for Cookie he looked uncomfortable on the bike. Dont think Cook is very flexible on the bike as most of the top men ,he doesn't go through with the "Gollob" type corner entries that the Top riders do nowadays ,he doesn't turn the bike as tight ,he almost got himself in trouble in the tight situation in one race.Let wait and see how the GP challenge goes.

Nobody's more entertaining than Nicki. The sooner he's back, the better. Saying that, I do enjoy watching PK. I think Vaculik's becoming the invisible man.
