Because....well....no reason.

 

I understand it's not as exciting as that, Dan.

 

Just put a bet on Newcastle going down.

 

By the way TSS, what do you think of Suzuki coming back to MotoGP in 2015?

Don't see how Pardew can work with this!

 

What is it about Newcastle? A few years back, a director (don't remember who) said that Newcastle women were dogs. And this from a guy who looked like the back end of a bus and used prostitutes....presumably believing that he was desirable and they weren't doing it for the money.

 

Well, in all honesty, GBS, they'd been making up the numbers for several seasons, just like Kawasaki who pulled out of MotoGP before them. If they have developed a bike that is obviously going to be competitive, under race development, then I'd welcome them back, because nothing does more for a motorcycle manufacturer than being at the top of the highest profile sport. I know MotoGP [or Motorcycle Grand Prix] isn't hugely big in the UK, but in Europe and other parts of the World, it vies with F1 for prominance, so Suzuki can do themselves a big favour if they can make a competitive bike, and it can only be good for the Championship if they can.

Incidentally, I once asked a question on TSW [around 2008-09] on who was the highest paid competitor in motorsport. I got confident replies of Alonso, Hamilton, etc... and people were surprised to find out it was Valentino Rossi. Some even said Valentino Who..? That would only happen in Britain. In Europe his profile was absolutely massive, and of course, still is, even though I think he hasn't won a race since Sepang in 2010. I'm sure you don't need to ask why I have a 46 at the bottom of my posts.

 

There's a picture circulating on Twitter that has us at home to Chelsea on the opening day..

 

I remember starting to get into MotoGP in mid-2006 or so...think the first race I watched was the race that Toni Elias won by 0.002s in Estoril the season after that, in 2007, I remember Suzuki being very competitive with John Hopkins and Chris Vermuelen, the latter even winning at Le Mans, and Hopper ended up 4th in the championship if I recall correctly? After that, they bombed massively. Then Kawasaki I liked just because the livery they ran was preety sweet (metallic green and black, what's not to like?).

I see Suzuki were testing at Barcelona with a lot of the current MotoGP riders, and they ended up 0.8s off the top with RDP on the saddle, which is pretty solid IMHO if they're still over a year from rejoining. Like you, I hope they can get their act together and challenge at the front, it's becoming very tedious watching Honda and Yamaha out front all the time. But at the same time, I'm glad to be seeing more bikes joining the field. Towards the end of last decade, the grids were shocking. And in that regard, it's great to see that the CRT bikes are actually somewhat competitive - at least competitive enough to make them enticing enough for new teams etc. And with Honda saying they're developing customer engines for the CRTs (I think it's Honda anyway), it looks like MotoGP's finally on the upward spiral

I do have an affinity with Valentino too. When I was choosing my squad number for American Football this year, I went with #46 because I was lacking imagination. The man is just insane as a rider, and it's a shame he hasn't won in so long, and indeed that his Ducati stint didn't go so well. I was really looking forward to seeing him beast the field on that thing...

 

It's good but it's not right.

 

Can we do that anyway?

 

Is the forum getting revamped?
