Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) Now that Coventry and Peterborough are not likely to be competing in the 2011 EL, thoughts have to turn to the riders. They have found themselves out of work and 14 into 7 won't go. So which of the riders will manage to find a tem berth elsewhere in 2011, or will there be no space at the inn? Harris. With Hans being touted at the Birmingham number one, no room there. So his only choice is likely to be Kings Lynn. They would want him on their track and would make a god number one for them. KK. Likely to be one of Sandhu's victims. He wants to ride here but if the one rile over 8 stands he is likely to miss out, which is a shame. Kennett. Could fit him in at Poole. Lives in the area and is mates with Holder and Ward. Good chance of a ride. Bridger. Eastbourne would welcome him back with open arms. Pawlicki. Unlikely to get a ride over here in 2011. Barker. Might be able to slot him in at Brum or KL? Sweetman. Brum Of course if Peterborough follow suit another 7 riders will be chasing places. Bjerre could find himself out of the EL Batchelor to Kings Lynn? Iversen? Schlein? Buczkowski miss out Kosciuch miss out There's likely to be at least 3 riders missing out who would warrant a team berth. Plus Oakes and Rosco looking for work. And all over 15% and bloody mindedness. How sad is that? Edited November 25, 2010 by Steve Shovlar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How sad is that? You never miss a trick do you?Talk about putting the knife in and giving it a twist, and don't give us the BS about how sorry you are, because we know you are not. This move by the bees & panthers is all about trying to break open the cartel which is crippling this sport, if it fails british speedway will be minus two more teams because I don't believe that on this occasion there will be any u turns by the clubs.

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted November 25, 2010 Absolutely nothing to do with a windup. Just showing how the stubborness of a couple of individuals has a much wider impact. No one wants either Coventry or Peterborough to go to the wall but only two men are capable of changing this and they have gone off on a huff. Not only will the riders and other staff find themselves unemployed, but the fans will have no team to support. Is Frost and Sandhu's stand worth it? Of course it isn't.

superguest 194 Posted November 25, 2010 Don't forget Belle vue Steve, if Hans and PK don't return they need a couple of decent riders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Coventry have just issued a statement saying that they won't issue any further news but that they do want to ride EL. But if you were a rider, would you hang around only to find out in a months time Coventry have officially pulled out and there's no team berth anywhere? I would bet the phones of 8 other EL promoters are ringing their heads off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeffster 60 Posted November 25, 2010 What a sick twisted individual you are, Steve !

You are already on record as saying two promotions jumped the gun ahead of conference etc. Deny all you like but all these posts by you are part of a wind up.

Ipswich Jules 192 Posted November 25, 2010 Coventry have just issued a statement saying that they won't issue any further news but that they do want to ride EL <snip> No, it says they want to ride "top flight" speedway, it doesn't sepcify the EL, it may be that they might (one or both) fancy a stint in the PL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
