FAST GATER Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Doyle's own fault IMO if he had done that to the likes of Hancock he may have backed off but a young "buck " is not intimidated in the same way if you live by the sword as they say .Doyle was a worthy Champ last year but I think that most riders are aware of his robust style now and deal with it which IMO has lead to his poor position this season in the GP'S . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be that Doyle, rather than trying to lean in on Lambert to block him, was attempting to cut back under Lambert for an inside run but misjudged the timing, so hardly warranting the previous comment about his style, I wouldn't say he's a dirty rider any more, definitely cleaned his act up in recent times.

Sorry about the timing of the meeting end- sadly myself and others had to watch the final on a mobile to get the last direct train back to Reading/London Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shalefan Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Absolutely enjoyed the day and the meeting. Good racing on a decent indoor track. Referees decisions brought controversy to the meeting and has got a lot of people talking. Thought the crowd attendance was up on last year which was good. Robert Lambert well done young man on such quick reactions to lay your bike down to avoid going into Craig Cook. Hopefully Craig’s night will fill him with some confidence going forward. Whilst Robert may see it as a bad nights return he will have learnt a great deal from the night which should hold him in good stead for the future. Don’t know how Greg still keeps producing but long may it’s continue. Congratulations to Bartosz Zmarzlik on winning the event and best wishes to Tai for the remaninder of the season and hopefully bringing home the trophy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What about the overseas GPs, we should quit our jobs that keep us working at weekends and travel across Europe to watch live all to avoid hearing a so called professional (joke) sports commentator shout/scream like a demented fool, ruining otherwise very good BT Sport coverage? Ok then... Here we go again, same bile from the same people meeting after meeting year after year if you included the Producer and Director in your criticism you might get near the mark but all the time he is told to big it up by his masters he will because the feedback from the majority is just the opposite to yours. Each to their own of course but your incessant Pearson bashing makes it look personal and I'll bet there's a grain of truth in that. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 I thought yesterday's British GP was the best I've been to (and I've been to them all), the on track action was top notch. I don't think the parade worked though, I had absolutely no idea where I was supposed to be looking, couldn't hear any of the announcements, there were no rider interviews and the replays of the crashes were few and far between. And the hush that came over the stadium when Doyley was down was reminiscent of Bradford 1989, somebody could have said something or played some low volume music or something! That said I took a friend and his lad down with me who'd only been to Speedway with me twice before a number of years back and they both said they had a cracking day out, which proves Speedway can attract new people. I had no hesitation taking them to a GP for £19... a League match at Leicester though? Forget it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As opposite her is Kevin Coombes who is clear, knowledgeable and still knows how to get the crowd going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No amount of enthusiasm can make up for the fact that some voices simply aren’t suited to shouting down a PA. I’d agree with those who thought the introductions didn’t work. Took me 5 riders to work out what was happening. OK for TV but didn’t work live. Although meeting delays are part of the sport, what chance of starting the racing at 17.00 rather than 17.15 next year? 15 minutes wouldn’t dent the pub profits too much (and perhaps would have prevented the guy next to me from falling over ) but it would remove the anxiety for those travelling back by train to Swindon, Reading and London. Missing the fireworks is no big deal, but missing the final race (as many clearly did) after such a good evening is a bit of a disappointment. Sure it’s a small percentage of the crowd but not insignificant. Edited July 22, 2018 by Tactical Joker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
