Speedway World Cup 2017

3. Reason why no one watches British speedway? Borefest of gating and filling programme.

Well compared to Poland, British speedway is no longer that entertaining. But Kings Lynn is a good race track, the problem is that tonight is a two horse race because of the farce of seeding hosts.

Crickey this is getting boring. I'd have thought the Aussies would have put up more of a fight. Mistake to stick with Morris and not draft up the in form Kurtz?

 

 

The Aussies will make the play-offs with just 3 riders, so all is irrelevant really.

 

Great display by Team GB, although I doubt we will be seeing the same results next weekend

What a crap track Lynn really is. Who gives a toss that the tracks smooth and fast, brilliant, no outside passing at all, all on the inside. Only passes have been mistakes by others.

 

Yes and no. I'm sure better riders could have found a way round.

Once the manager picks a team then its set. Doyle pulled out after team picked so the manager has to work with what he has.

Stops the trick Hancock did last year when he rode in this equivalent meeting, qualified cause of his points for the Friday last chance, and pulled out. Big moan on hear (and elsewhere) about him pulling out - you must remember that. So rules changed.

but why we're either not picked ahead of Morris ?

Jokers are ridiculous and shouldn't be in this competition.

 

GB riding brilliantly, but the final will be hell of a lot tougher.

 

Racing not great due to USA and Czechs being way out of their depth.

 

No idea why Pearson is getting so animated banging on about Czechs making a mistake playing joker in race with Cook and Holder. The Czechs were never going to beat a Aus or GB rider if we raced until christmas. Czechs just had to play joker in a race where they beat USA - which they did.

 

USA got the joker wrong playing it against Harris and Batchelor....They should have played it against Fricke, the only rider in the top 2 that they could conceivably have a chance of beating

What sort of spectator attendance - a 'guesstimate' will do - is likely to be at this meeting?

 

 

3128

 

 

The quoted possible WTC match attendance at King's Lynn puts speedway very much on a par with Women's Test cricket. But I suspect it's a joke response to my query. :lol:
