They can’t apparently due to a visa issue. No Porsing strengthens the Stars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted September 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2019 One would expect that Porsing has a doctors note whatever the reason for his absence is and it’s difficult to argue with one of those. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Speedways popularity which you describe has been on a steep year on year decline for the past 40 years using the current operating model.. Therefore I suggest they try something different to try and halt this slide because doing the same thing time and time again, and expecting different results, is widely regarded as a mark of insanity... And that's no myth.. The crowds slide as the team get worst it's not hard to figure out ..of course as we have seen your plan is to carry on making the teams worst so its odd you go on about doing the same thing time and time again . .I could pull apart Football ,Golf Cricket about credibility and intergrity but it does not stop crowds watching it. maybe these sports don't have the same 24-7 media coverage speedway has .

Even a NL rider is an improvement. Ostergaard got 9 the other week at Ipswich. So yes he he way more capable of scoring more than Porsing. However hopefully he scores little, ditto the other 6 Stars.

I would ditch BT Sport, their League coverage has been very poor, and now they change this meeting for rudy German Football. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that is a bit tongue in cheek saying a NL rider would be an improvement. Yes he was awful riding for Peterborough the other week in tough conditions. But riding for Lynn he has never been that bad around there. I think his lowest score has been 3 for Lynn which isn't that bad around your place. Most of the time would have been in the 1-5 too. Do remember him scoring an 8 or 9 a few years ago beating Thorssell twice so we know he can do it, it's just whether he can be bothered it seems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s amazing how little research people do when claiming this, that and the other. Takes a few seconds to check riders previous scores in the updates site archives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit tongue in cheek but there are plenty of riders currently in the NL that most likely would do better at Monmore. Clegg springs to mind as an example.

Bunce Posted September 2, 2019 Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 Craig Cook pulled out of the Championship riders Final after 3 rides with illness, I wonder if he is a doubt for tonight? Nothing on the Stars web site, they include him in the line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
