Trees Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Superb racing.... once again spoiled by the shouty one who today was virtually in screaming mode.I hate the, in this case, 'BTSports', way they are told to shout and show their excitement, OTT!

hyderd Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 (edited) I hate the, in this case, 'BTSports', way they are told to shout and show their excitement, OTT! You try commenting on a final as good as that without showing their excitement through their voice. Give them a break they do a darn good job.

rob tatum Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Fantastic final maybe one of the best ever Couple of things surely riders shouldn't be allowed to turn left immediately off the start line is there a rule? What a fantastic spectacle the GPS can be just a shame there will be no mention of it anywhere tomorrow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spt82 Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Wrong. Green lights "indicate the start is imminent", as per the rules. That annoys me, guy off gate 4 misses the start, rides into guy off 3. Gets all 4 back. If you choose gate 4 you run the risk that if you miss the start they beat you here and your left behind. Shouldn't be allowed to ride into the guy off gate 3 This is what the rules say"A Rider who, after the Green Light was illuminated, failed to start, retired from, was not proceeding under power when the Heat was stopped or is disqualified from a Heat that is ordered to be re-run shall be ineligible to take part in the re-run and shall not be replaced."

Give them a break they do a darn good job. See above reply I totally appreciate how hard their job is, I went to one of their nights last winter where they demonstrated the difficulties they have. I've read many times that they are "told" to show ott excitement by the broadcasters, is this not true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robert72 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Even Doyle said "I'm happy three Aussies are on podium" ahahhahah So Doyle sees his mate tai as an Aussie ? was I seeing things or did tai join in towards the end of the Aussie anthem tonight. What a great GP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grachan Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 So Doyle sees his mate tai as an Aussie ? was I seeing things or did tai join in towards the end of the Aussie anthem tonight. What a great GP It actually looked to me like Tai was trying to stop himself from singing it. At one time he even put his hat over his mouth. What an amazing final. With Hancock missing it, that was two riders both looking to gain some advantage of the situation. For the first time, I now think Jason can do it. I'd be happy with either him or Tai as world champ, and think one of them will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Its you who care about Woffinden who isnt even British to win anything because you have nothing else. Poland won 3 World Team Cups with Rune Holta in the side. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great GP You were seeing things, I suppose you also didn't see Tai forget to take his cap off at the start of the Aussie anthem. Christ he would of been slated for that if it was the British anthem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DEAN MACHINE Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Excelent atmosphere inside the stadium, decent racing with an Excelent final , wish we had speedway stadiums like this , their design is so basic but they look so good , thought Jim Laurence was going to need a police escort out of the stadium for what was a shocking decision to exclude zarmarlik , the poles were not happy don't know what they were chanting but it's wasn't well done Jim 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sommelier Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Pretty strong criticism of Jim Lawrence right now by all polish commentators. Hi tried to PM you, but wont allow me, please PM me regarding programmes, many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReturn Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 like anything in life, if it sounds boring it could put people off, especially potential new fans But last night the racing talked for itself, we didn't need it screamed at us, we could all see it. The same with the stupid comments he makes about 'the fans are loving this, they're going wild' which then pans to one or two smiling or clapping fans. Always reminds me of that scene from Escape to Victory where the German football commentators have to mask the crown displeasure at German's scoring by putting on crowd cheering tapes.

Fromafar Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 Just watched GP ,that Final was some race.Refs have to stop Yellow outside riders angling straight to the inside out the tapes,if they cause a collision they should be thrown out.IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted August 28, 2016 Report Share Posted August 28, 2016 I see. So if Poland get a very rare event of a world champion you won't care. Basicall y Steve Poland just aren't a sporting country like we know them.They don't produce many reat sportspeople and the people of Poland don't go to many sporting events.Maybe they like watching it on tv or now livestream,but look at their attendances and it is really very low If you look at the recent Olympics,Poland with a pop of 38 million were below countries like Denmark and Sweden,who have populations of 25% of what Poland has.Look at their attendances at Speedway and football and their gates are around 8,000 average in the main leagues.With 25% of their population Sweden get more at football and Denmark get about 1,000 less.Poor crowds,poor performances and we get some clown trying to big it all up When Pland can compete on the world stage in sport then we look forward to hearing from him.Until then...........GP in Poland and their only chance is 4th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
