Hilly Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Showed that gate 2 always had a chance over gate 3. Racing way better than previous 2 nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk127 Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Good final race and both pairs deserved to be in the line up for the last race. Not a bad evenings entertainment and hopefully team GB can take away some useful tips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just tell all British riders to quit, and we'll all be happy... No just recognise where they stand and stop having the powers that be build up mediocre riders and start from scratch. GB riders can rise to the top but at this moment they not on the pace and those in charge are doing these lads no favours. The riders are OK but they have a long way to go to be good. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panthers99 Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Not giving Leon a go is awful management. Hardly like Kemp was firing from all cylinders all night. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE DEAN MACHINE Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Sometimes luck is on your side and it was on Poland’s side tonight but overall they deserved it, the czech’s and GB can be proud of their nights work 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw42 Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 If tomorrows Final delivers anything close to tonight for entertainment I'll be happy enough. I don't like seeing riders get hurt and it does detract from the overall spectacle but, for me, that was a cracking evening of speedway, thrills & spills as they used to put on the flyers outside Hyde Rd, all part and parcel of the sport. Roll on tomorrow!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flint rides at HL Number 5 with a .5 higher average than Kemp who rides at 2, can’t understand why he didn’t get a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't think there are any British riders that are "on the pace"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iris123 Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) For me it was all a bit surreal A really good meeting, which surprised me. But my opinion is a world championship being telvised in front of such a poor crowd, quite possibly does more damage than good. Absolutey no atmosphere, and how can there be, and despite the professional surroundings, it is just like it doesn't matter to anyone, apart from the few dozen people closely involved the 3 meetings together probably haven't attracted a decent non league football crowd Edited July 29, 2022 by iris123 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmy jimmy Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Brennan 20 points, only Gusts did better, impressive! Vatch too loyal to Drew to be honest, Flint having a better season 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let the youngsters mature over time, they need to grow into a force to be reckoned with, but at the moment they sit behind many of those on show tonight but can learn. Brennan second top scorer and if Kemp hadnt come off against the Aussies we could have had gate choice for the semi. Thought they looked very competitive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
