Star Lady 5,400 Posted December 5, 2015 stars to sign Nicki Pedersen as #1 then come July/Aug NKI returns as a direct replacement... thoughts please Hope the weather is good for the first half of the season, hate standing on the terraces when it's cold. It can snow in August the if if likes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haza 1,774 Posted December 5, 2015 If the club changes race night it's going to be for a big name signing in my opinion and the only rider that fits the bill is Nicki can't see the club switching race night for anyone else . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted December 5, 2015 Commiserations if it's MJJ. The most overrated rider in the modern era who gas done nothing in the EL to warrant much praise. I really hope for the stars fans , and the EL, it's dirty Nicki. Oh you're funny the only person over rating MJJ is you so you can when he's not great. MJJ has put his average up every season he raced EL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,779 Posted December 5, 2015 These Nicki Pedersen rumours seem to surface every year, and like every other year I'm afraid they are pie in the sky IMO, although I'd happily be proved wrong. As for Lewis Kerr then if those rumours are true and we are swapping our race night then as disappointed as I'd be to see him have to race elsewhere in the EL it only seems right to me that Ipswich (and Lewis himself in PL terms) don't get penalised. No idea how many points it would leave for the mystery man but I would speculate that the other six will be Lambert, Schlein, Batchelor, Bjerre, Rose and Kerr/Roynon.

PhilK 150 Posted December 5, 2015 As a sort of neutral who attends KL irregularly I'm fascinated by the Pedersen and race night change rumoursAlthough the handful that discuss KL matters on here seem in the main fine with a race night change in order to facilitate the return of Pedersen surely before such a bold move the promotion would have some interaction with the supporters to ensure that a change of race night wouldn't effect the crowd substantially as unless there is a sponsor on board to pay, they will need everyone they can get through the gate with Pedersen's likely pay demands.Personally with the EL possibly at its weakest (Top rider wise) I would think young riders on the up would be more likely on Busters radar? Maybe a young Pole or two, Anders Thomsen maybe or the like, its looks a good time to try and tie up some young talent as unless the unlikely change to one race night for all in the EL occurs I can't see GP riders of real quality returning in the foreseeable future Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes you could go to Poole & help them win the league & then find yourself without a team place the next season is one hell of a good word😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If he was annoyed he'd ride for a rival club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
