Lefty Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 (edited) Haven't done a British Final for years. Do they still have the nerve to put the admission price up and stuff two quid on the proggy for four extra pages?

They’ve said he needs two to six weeks of recovery to be fully fit and he has already done one of them. We are hoping that it will be on lesser side, and he will be with us next meeting.” Should be fit for August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Smith Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 I don't have any problem with that line-up at all. Should be a very competitive meeting throughout as a British Final. The only problem is that Bewley apart, (because he's already a GP rider) the Cardiff Wildcard is gonna be extremely embarrassed. Controversial opinion, I'd rather the Wildcard for Cardiff was a foreigner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGould Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 Take Bewley off the top and Flint/Brennan off the bottom and frankly and not being disrespectful its a DIRE situation when you look at the ages, profile of the bulk of the field. Whilst Lambert and Bewley have flown the nest and we wait for the likes of Flint, Brennan, Kemp, Palin, Thompsons, Edwards etc to find their feet and ultimate level (and as the years go by what will that level be?) its boringly average by Global standards. What we really need is a European outlet for the Palins , Brennans , Edwards , Kemps but with Sweden in equally sorry state as us and Denmark not really fitting due to Wednesday racing it's a tough transition even to the bottom (3rd tier) in Poland, where our best younger riders get to feed off the scraps and tough to make a foothold. So who is the next rising 30 or even 40 year old to take a Crown that used to be the domain of genuinely world class riders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
