thanks for latest david . so guest for bridger, r/r for floppy , and two other guests , yet to be advised , for lukas and simon it seems . be intrested to hear who they are , hopefully not klindt and skornicki again
If Im keeping up with you correctly bulldog, the latest position is that we are not allowed a guest for Lewis......
Surely the whole ethos of team Speedway (averages, points limits etc) is to ensure that teams are as equal as possible and therefore (in theory) meetings remain close and exciting.
If we are not allowed some sort of facility during Lewis' ban this whole concept is thrown out the window.
How would the teams battling with Lakeside for a play-off place feel if The Hammers walk away from Arlington with an easy 4 point victory due to Eastbourne being forced to ride without a recognised no.1?
Would we then be fined, as on Monday night, for putting out a below strength team?
Personally, I think that from now till the end of the season I will be cheering on whoever our opposition happen to be.... Why? .... Because it would be one way of hopefully getting us into the Premier League for next season (via the relegation play-off) which I reckon is our only hope of having any sort of viable future.
awaiting david's clarification COUS , and any news of the THREE GUESTS and r/r for floppy . that bspa rule book must be thicker than the bible , and the compilers very dense . yeah , no more elite on saturdays , don't think many of us disagree on that . saturdays ok , as long as it is premier . if this happens then attendaces will improve . if elite there will be horrendously reduced attendances , and new promoter will need his brain tested and lose even more than the present incompetants .on the other hand there may be no speedway and most of the blame will be on the same two .
I have a question ....Against Ipswich Bridgers banned r/r for him due to 2 match ban Kylmakorpi replaces Floppy OK. Saturday against Lakeside we are looking for a big name to replace Lewis and r/r for Floppy. Now I thought when a rider is banned you can only have R/R for him have I got that wrong _________________ A Founder Member of the Home Straight Lukas Dryml Appreciation Society!
Have been following all your posts and must say how disappointed I am with Lewis. Have always been a fan of him even though he has not always got things right but has certainly kept us entertained This latest episode is certainly something Bob or Trevor would not want to be dealing with as there are already enough problems
I will be there sat as Davey (especially as he has not been well), Cam, Lukas, Simon & Ricky did fantastic mon and deserve our support. Hope those riding sat will get a big cheer
Have made great friends at Arlington and very sad meetings may be numbered! Hope and pray there is someone out there who is passionate about speedway and prepared to save Eagles
official website still cannot name guests . should it be "guest ", as they show simon and lukas riding !? thought they said they were away for international duty ?what is correct this time ?. no mention of complin , just guest , top liner , to be advised, for bridger the lunatics have escaped and are running the asylum
now that site reports travis mcgowan in for david norris , so is it r/r for bridger . previous as posted . top guest for bridger; r/r for floppy ; davey; cam ; lukas ;simon; ricky . they'all over the place , every time we look it has changed . as said originally lukas and simon away on international duty .does anyone know what the team will be , the tom and jerry show
think you may be wright eagle--- maybe they are trying to entice us there undaer false pretences .
speedway star arrived a day late .elite league news section states floppy will definately not ride again this season .also kling[ not dryml] and simon were to miss this meeting, now kling ok and probably simon . oh , i have given up , not as if i can be there anyway .
Its all a complete farce at Arlington. I'll go to the Elite Pairs - which hopefully will be run competently by the super seven people - and that's it. No more of this who is going to ride for us this saturday. I'm not going to waste my money any more this season. And if there is no speedway at Arlington next season, so be it. After what we have put up with for the past few years, it will hardly be the end of the world. The poor old world (and its inhabitants) have much more serious things to worry about. Sorry about the rant guys, but really I am sick, weary and tired of the antics that go on in speedway.
When I think back to how well the club was run when the likes of Russell Lanning and Jon Cook were around and compare it to the shambles that it is now it's enough to make you weep!!
It will be a bit of a wrench to leave "the nest" but there are 3 or 4 better run and more professional clubs that are nearer and easier for me to get to.
The only reason I've put up with the rubbish that has been served up at Arlington over recent times is out of a sense of loyalty and for old times sake from the ex White City Rebels days.
I suppose its fair enough Bob wanting to spend all the hours keeping his company going in hard times,BUT dont just leave the speedway to rot away and you have to think hes not really what the hardcore fans feeling are as well.Has Trevor Geer got a full time job outside speedway,does anyone know? if so fair enough ,he cant spend a lot of time to chase riders.GET someone who has the time,know how.How about MRS DUGARD wHATS PAUL DUGARD DOING,OR MARTIN?even ask Bob Brim maybe to help without putting his cash on the line!! as others have said its looks like the club is running itself and there is only one way its going.
I can answer the question about Trevor - last I heard he worked for ROK in Eastbourne, can't remember what his job title is maybe - Chief Numpty or is in charge of static displays.
