Sport related Manslaughter charge
Daniel Smith replied to HGould's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Rider's & driver's almost killing themselves is also a selling point in all motorsports, the adverts are full of crashes, so (new) fans expect it. When it doesn't happen it's deemed boring. Racing is boring without a crash Boxing is boring without a knockout Ice Hockey is boring without a smash in to the boards. Naturally, what keeps people interested & talking about sport is controversy. Without it, nobody would watch it. Controversy is what keeps people on the edge of their seats. -

Premiership 2024 Confirmed Signings

King's Lynn are the dregs experts so Birmingham should be safe for 6th at least

Didn't Somerset have to drop 'Rebels' for "political correctness" reasons?

Representing in the top league, surely they should be the Cheetahs & the lesser name in the Championship. Random decision to me. Oxford must have some serious backer to be running 3 leagues or the conspiracy theorist in me is thinking it's purely for the TV financial package, and Oxford withdraw from the top division after a month

Educate me - why does Zmarzlik get faster as meetings progress?
Daniel Smith replied to Jonimac's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Every point does count when trying to make the semis?!? There's no system that Zmarzlik wouldn't make a semi final with. Everyone else just needs to be better & rough him up a bit. -

Rowe won't be an RS if they continue with the system (which is unlikely) -

It's not them that's done that -
I've had no response to this question from someone that really should know. Can Richie Worrall mechanic for his brother?? In any other sport participants are suspended from all activities yet, from what I can find out, that doesn't seem to be the case within Speedway. I'd find it completely absurd if he can find a way to make money within the sport while suspended feom riding. Is this the case or not??

King’s Lynn 2024 serious team predictions
Daniel Smith replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Just don't think they can add to their current averages. If King's Lynn go strength in depth, we need to find rider's that can add at least a point. The King's Lynn management are in a tough predicament as they've got to dump the whole 2022 side except Anders Rowe. Scooping up the dregs from Peterborough is also not the way to go as they too were not good enough either. Ben Cook & Chris Harris from Peterborough & Anders Rowe at King's Lynn is all I'd take from 2022. -

With their injuries, King's Lynn have to avoid Klindt & Jorgensen if they want strength in depth. Musielak & a reintroduction of Lawson is a must for me at No1 & No5. Anders Rowe at No6 (not as rising star) is worth the shot with 25% reduction. Not sure I'd go near Tarasenko & Basso to be be honest. Would prefer Harris at No3 then fill the gaps -
Who was Ipswich's 3rd Ekstraliga rider??

Try doing it to 39.00, it's tough. (-2.5%) Emil & Musielak had to be in 1. Sayfutdinov 10.10 2. Howarth 5.55 (5.41) 3. Brennan 6.02 (5.87) 4. Z.Cook 5.10 5. Musielak 8.69 6. Hume 3.87 (3.77) 7. Rowe R/S -
Premiership Team Of The Season
Daniel Smith replied to Shaggy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It's fair but I don't think you can include someone that's only done 4 meetings in Wojdylo & Sedgmen fell off a cliff when Leicester needed him most. -
Premiership Team Of The Season
Daniel Smith replied to Shaggy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
1. Sayfutdinov 2. Kurtz 3. Fricke 4. Museliak 5. Doyle 6. J.Holder 7. Rowe Just adding an honorable mention to Lewis Kerr. Totally went under the radar with many but delivered for Sheffield when it mattered. -
King’s Lynn 2024 serious team predictions
Daniel Smith replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The problem with King's Lynn, the septet never has anything exciting for fans to look forward too. Every season it's just meh. Then we get fed nonsense that there isn't the rider's available but every other club seems to find them. We've seen this club give spots to rider's coming out of, or about to retire. Cheap. The concern is King's Lynn doing a mash-up of King's Lynn / Peterborough 2023 for the new 7. Both teams an absolute mile off so why would it be different in 2024?? Apart from getting Bomber & Tarasenko at King's Lynn giving excitement from the back where's the results coming from? Lawson, Iversen, Basso, Kerr, Klindt, Worrall are flat-lining rider's. Race winners will again be a tough ask. For me, King's Lynn needs to turn a corner & think outside the box, steal rider's from other clubs, be bold. This club is desperate for a genuine (SGP / Ekstraliga) No1. We all know what's coming in 2024. -

Daniel Smith replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Kind of right. There's more rider's too but it's standard procedure, 'terms agreed' but they're all open to other options if a better deal can be agreed elsewhere. Naming names is of no point to anyone just yet.
