GiveusaB Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 (edited) In the event of the British Final being abandoned....the Cardiff Wildcard should go to the leading (British) rider in the British League averages (IMO) I guess (at present) that would make 'Bomber' the worthy candidate!

Or this would be another very well thought out solution, but no that would just make sense and too obvious so the powers that be thought they’d mix it up abit 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue witch Posted August 3, 2022 Report Share Posted August 3, 2022 I also don't think the British final should be at Belle Vue every year. Not every rider does well there and would give other clubs the chance of extra revenue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree but unfortunately with it being called the national stadium it’s unlikely anywhere else would get a sniff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the logical answer. Too many people discrediting Ellis just because he is not at the top of his form. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many people discrediting Ellis just because he is not at the top of his form. Forgetting that 8 days previously he’d scored a 4 ride maximum in the European semi final ( which Team GB won) while Harris was replaced in two of his rides after scoring only 4 points. It pîsses me off that I even need to point this out but it seems that the numpties online spout cråp with impunity. i know I shouldn’t bite, but when I get personal messages slagging him off and read some of this on here I just like to put the record straight. it’s no wonder 99% of riders and officials in the sport avoid this site like the plague. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dog Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 I've heard that Kings Lynn is being looked at for hosting the restaging of the British Final. Anybody else heard the same or know why it would be moved from BV? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bugger Eurosport they had their chance and ran out at such a pace to cause its cancellation! If it's on the weekend at the NSS with no Eurosport coverage I will definitely be there!
