TheMessiahOfTheBSF 84 Posted November 19, 2019 Who backs Nicki up is the question. Club favourite Josh Grajczonek? Brady Kurtz? or Jack Holder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevec 300 Posted November 19, 2019 You lucky sods Sheffield fans!!! Nicki rode for Eastbourne some years back and I have to say he is one of the most exciting riders to wear the blue and yellow! I would love to see him back at Arlington and I may well take in a Sheffield fixture or two just to see him ride in the UK Wow!! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simon Stead would have his work cut out for sure. My money is on Josh Grajczonek though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In truth that is a secondary issue at this time. Time will tell, but plaudits to Sheffield for the signing of the close season so far! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skidder1 7,634 Posted November 19, 2019 So Nicki's last average was 8.61 in 2011. I wonder what new BSPA Vice-Chair Mr Bates will be able to get it reduced to? Its a good signing for the Tigers - if Nicki is really up for it - but how many people on the bsf have openly criticised promoters for squandering TV money on rider contracts rather than investing it in the longer term future of the sport?!

I think it's a great signing for Sheffield. Fair enough Nicki isn't the same rider he once was but British Speedway is not as strong of a league as it once was either. He will do the business for them in 2020 imo. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob B 1,255 Posted November 19, 2019 Surely this has got to be a temporary signing until say start of May? Can't see Nicki at his age wanting to ride in 4 leagues for a full season and can Sheffield afford him for a season? But it's a win win, Nicki gets to ride in some meetings to warm up from injury comeback before the major leagues starts, for some decent money. Sheffield get good press and social media coverage now and good crowds to start the year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Come on Skidder. Look at the reaction on here to Nicki's signing. Surely this is the way forward to attract back some of the missing fans (I hope so anyway!!) 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clambo71 136 Posted November 19, 2019 Last time I saw Nicki was the meeting at monmore where Freddie Lindgren cemented his icon status in heat 1 by putting Nicki into the air fence twice and Nicki didnt come out for the third start. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
