New era Panthers 2,055 Posted August 6, 2018 2 hours ago, Bash said: So you didn't read the article in the Speedway Star what Nico said about the incident this season in the Championship Shield meeting, and the Peterborough Management stopping the Star contacting Ostergaard. If I wanted to buy a comic I would buy the beano other than that other than that if Covatti has a problem with Ostergaard's riding he should keep it in house not go running to the press and Peterborough management are correct by not allowing Ostergaard to respond to the speedway soap magazine it's not the way to do things.

crazyb 156 Posted August 6, 2018 3 hours ago, New era Panthers said: Some Ipswich fans are still harping on about a racing incident between Ostergaard and Covatti that happened at the fours final 2/3 years back they actually think Ostergaard took Covatti out exiting the second bend deliberately and don't see it as a racing incident . Then they make silly statements like Covatti was able to get a decent score at the showground because Ostergaard wasn't fit to race. Only idiots would make those sort of suggestions unless they can prove malice was intended. Go back twenty years and the incidents with Ronni Pedersen and idiotic Ben Howe. All caused because Howe thought, wrongly, that Pedersen had brought off Jem Doncaster. It only came out sometime later that Jem had spoken to Ronni the next day to say that the crash was due to Pedersen's bike lifting and it wasn't malicious. Shame he didn't say it at the time though. You don't take other riders out on purpose, as you're just as likely to get injured yourself: just ask Ully Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Without doubt the most obvious one I have seen in well over 40 years!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panthers70 74 Posted August 7, 2018 (edited) 17 hours ago, New era Panthers said: Are you suggesting that Ostergaard made a deliberate attempt to cause harm to your rider, I don't think there are any riders that would purposely try to fence opposition riders , and quite frankly I find your accusation sick that riders would attempt to do this to one another. You have to face the facts that riders are there to race and incidents will occur from time to time, Nothing to do with being biased towards any riders or teams . Many years ago Ben Howe fenced Ronnie Pedersen by carrying straight on the first bend and not turning left 1 inch. That was 100% definite sorry just seen that this incident has been posted before Edited August 7, 2018 by Panthers70 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davet 52 Posted August 7, 2018 You weren't there though were you? Ronni Pedersen's trouble was his confidence exceeded his ability, but I don't think he ever deliberately fenced or otherwise impeded another rider. Ben Howe, on the other hand deliberately used his bike as a weapon, forcing Ronni to collide with the fence. I don't understand, to this day why he didn't receive a ban. Speedway is dangerous enough without idiots like him being allowed to act in such a way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Davet 52 Posted August 7, 2018 Read it again! It was the deliberate nature of Howe's action that was unforgiveable. Ronni Pedersen was, to my best memory an awkward rider, and he was certainly guilty of some unacceptable moves, but I don't believe he was ever guilty of deliberate foul riding.

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,692 Posted August 7, 2018 Is the "Danish lift" taught in the training schools over there? Even the mild mannered ones like Morten suffer with that 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
