poolebolton 464 Posted November 14, 2017 As I said, Fricke has signed for Wroclaw Fee got changed though. I am a Wroclaw fan and I wanted Max just 75K is a lot for a rider. The fee came down to about 60K. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So do you still think he wont get in the starting line up ?, Just out of interest Edited November 14, 2017 by WestGorton1884 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poolebolton 464 Posted November 14, 2017 So do you still think he wont get in the starting line up ?, Just out of interest No. Tai and Milik are locks. And the Latvian wizard is getting better and better. He is a good rider dont get me wrong but not better than the other 3. Awesome guy to have in reserve. And Gleb Chuganov is going to be a very good rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yet the biggest speedway club in the world Fabulanz ZG have Martin Somlinski at reserve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Falubaz had money issues this year which is why theyve lost Doyle & Hampel. Edited November 15, 2017 by hyabb17 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems money problems are all around speedway,if Polish speedway doesn't stop paying ridiculous sums of money tied to strict contracts, then their bubble could also burst. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I seem to recall quite a few cases of riders not having been paid the agreed sums by their Polish club in the recent past. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Halifaxtiger 5,318 Posted November 18, 2017 Seems money problems are all around speedway,if Polish speedway doesn't stop paying ridiculous sums of money tied to strict contracts, then their bubble could also burst. Its quite ironic that there are those who criticise British Speedway for owing riders money yet point to Polish Speedway as the way forward. They aren't that much different where that is concerned, nor are Sweden. The huge amount owed by Indianerna to the likes of Lindgren & Iversen from 2016 is a very good example. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B.V 72 1,054 Posted November 20, 2017 Sad to say but on paper I can build stronger teams leaving out Worrall. ie Zagar or Batchelor + Hougaard or Worrall and a 7 point or less rider with Cook,Fricke,Tungate,Bewley and Smith. Would the management leave out Worrall ?.What do other Belle vue fans think. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) I agree with you. Cook, Zagar, Fricke, Hougaard, Tungate, Bewley , Smith. 42.30 Or we could replace Zagar with Woffinden and have 0.65 more to play with. It would also allow Tai to achieve another ambition having been turned away in 2016. Edited November 20, 2017 by Aces51 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattfordfan 286 Posted November 20, 2017 I agree with you. Cook, Zagar, Fricke, Hougaard, Tungate, Bewley , Smith. 42.30 You are on the money right there. My thought's exactly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
