Bagpuss 10,778 Posted May 14, 2018 I'd suggest that signing Danish riders and not riding on Mondays is the difference between a competitive team and one which isn't. It would be nice to have some clarity on how many more meetings our Danes will miss so we know whether to be concerned or if the flapping has been unecessary.

Daniel Smith 5,658 Posted May 14, 2018 These are the remaining home fixtures that clash with Denmark 16/5 Leicester KOC 30/5 Somerset Prem 4/7 Leicester Prem 8/8 Belle Vue Prem 22/8 Rye House Prem 29/8 Poole Prem Away clashes 13/6 Poole Prem From the 12 remaining home fixtures on the calendar 6 of those will potentially see missing rider's. This could be seriously damaging for making the Play-Offs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had the Promotors came out last week and announced the situation of the forth coming KO match with Leicester, I would have said , fair dues, No, I wouldn't have liked missing out on seeing the proper riders, but at least we would have known the situation the club was in. But here we are, 48 hrs to go and not a word. all they have said is there will be hot laps on Wednesday. If the truth be known , they are afraid to tell the fans the truth thinking some will not bother going, Even if they don't have all the information yet, we should be told what is going on..... The club said they had learnt from last years problems, I'm yet to see that.... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pointsmeanplayoffs 417 Posted May 14, 2018 Has it been confirmed that all the Danish lads are having to miss the meeting on Weds? If so, we need to know whether or not it's going to be an ongoing issue, and what meetings are affected. I'm prepared to give the promotion the benefit of the doubt for now, even after last years fiasco. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DWP 320 Posted May 14, 2018 Wife away, forecast good so I thought I might have an evening at the speedway Wednesday night. Then I came on forum saw everyone had decided to go to Denmark instead, so have decided I won’t be going to Lynn. Lawn needs cutting so will get some laps in myself 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As another poster has said KL should be having Cook but other guests are hard to find due to other meetings and most Danes unavailable plus some riders who have the night off don’t want a guest booking as already have U.K. Monday and Sweden Tuesday Surely that would be Schlein for Bjerre.Not that it would make any difference as R/R for Andersen all the riders can still take his rides.

It just illustrates the attitude of the club, that is infuriating the real fans by being kept in the dark. I am not particularly bothered who it is , but being kept informed is the important part Unless we are told of the team before the match , there is no way I will pay to watch speedway without knowing who I will be watching... I thought this Brundle chap was suppose to be take the club on a new direction, pointing out the Club and Fans being of one vision. This sure contradicts a of that statement .... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
