All I can do is speculate the possible changes? Steve and Gino/Mikkel B in and Matty and Victor out maybe? Although I would love to see Tero back, interesting times ahead... Edit: Tero and Matej fit perfectly for Matty and Victor 1. Thomas Jorgensen 2. Nike Lunna 3. Lasse Bjerre 4. Matej Kus 5. Tero Aarnio 6. Danny Phillips 7. Max Clegg. Tero in Poland on Sundays(some).

It's lunna and Palovaara that arn't part of the seven now. I don't know the full facts but I'm assuming lunna has stepped down so the promotion have realised there's a chance to get Stevie Worrall in and one other at the expense of the unfortunate Palovaara. If they told him by text it's very poor and something I'm surprised at but until we know the facts then is the time to comment. I personally feel sorry for Palovaara especially with the timing of it all but really it was a no brainer to bring Stevie back which i think the majority of diamonds fans would agree.

Always wanted to see him regularly around Brough, as I've seen him a lot in Finland, and he would be interesting around the smaller bends Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tero with his great history in big events, would be more likely to gain a place in Poland than Rose, who turned out to be only a squad player so quit his team for us.

Yearbyred 1,099 Posted March 3, 2019 if Nike isn't riding for the Diamonds (pleased as I like him) I'm sure some team will fit him in - cracking rider to watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure Newcastle will release a statement in due course. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrP 241 Posted March 3, 2019 Heard Lunna has an injury(don't know if it's true) so they had to make a change. As Steve is available it would make sense to try and fit him in,and unfortunately it looks like Victor could be the one to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TotallyHonestJohn 3,078 Posted March 3, 2019 2 hours ago, pienpeesman said: So if a rider texts a promotion to say I'm going elsewhere as he's been offered a better deal which does happen as it did to the diamonds a few seasons ago & the rider was never mentioned which means that the promotion who have a hard enough job to assemble a team had to reschedule the team at the time & had to inform a couple of riders sorry but we've been dropped in it,,so is that WRONG Honestly Spot on I can give three examples of that happening this year... and when's texting been old fashioned? Technologies move that fast these day everything is old fashioned after a couple of month... I am getting hassle of my kids to face time?... at least it wasn't a fax... I have been told what has happened and it was unavoidable and out with the control of the promotion it has also thrown the club's plans into turmoil but they have acted the only way they could really and definitely no Vape Gate...
