Not all Danish riders ride in the Danish league. We already have two Danes riding for us on Fridays.

One Anderssen doesn't have a regular team spot .

This sort of gossip just upsets riders and agitates fans, but then that seems to be the norm on hear.

If you want a counter rumour, look up the name of the Czech rider practising at Redcar yesterday and speaking at length with one of the management. He was being given preferential treatment and pitted against the quickest riders there. .

There you go, that's how rumours start!

Rather wait for official announcements myself .

Ondrej Smetana, was at Brough last night and was confused by the shape of the track according to Roy :P Looked half decent at Redcar on Friday night tbh for a young-un riding the track for the first time...

Looks like a replacement coming in for Bacon - what can be now build up to?

Rotten luck for Tom especially as he had a nasty back injury not that long ago either. One of Speedways nice guys, incredibly professional and a slow burner towards the top if he could keep injury free.

So what’s this about Kasper Andersen? Just a rumour? I thought you might bring Mikkel B Andersen or Jonas B Andersen never mind Kasper... its getting rather confusing!

I'd rather some young up and coming rider, the Andersen's have had their chances.

Rode in the GP Qualifier at Glasgow recently using Ludvig Lindgrens bikes and with George Stancl as mechanic. Did indeed look impressive for his age and stage as a first time visitor.

Good gater and nice steady style on the tight Brough bends. Bit near to the first bend inner curb spoiled his line coming out of the second bend. Didn't think he was that young, very difficult to specify. Both finishing times were in the 68's,  which was probably level with the slower races in the league meeting beforehand.
