That`s hardly an accolade to be proud of. 3 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hulvik 73 Posted November 20, 2019 One man's hard racer is another man's dirty rider and for this reason along it is certain Nicki will certainly put bums on seats at Sheffield. However I do have one question will fans have to pay extra to watch the weekly punch up between Nicki and another ride or will that spetical be covered by the normal admission fee 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzac 1,007 Posted November 20, 2019 When you see him week in, week out, he's hard not dirty. When he was at Eastie in his prime there were some astonishing races at close quarters with Jason Crump especially and with Leigh Adams, Peter Karlsson etc, the like of which I've never seen since. Never an inch given but what excitement. If he's anything like that now, enjoy it whilst you can. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let’s hope so, wouldn’t like to see a new club to the league over stretching themselves straight away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grachan 7,314 Posted November 21, 2019 What I like about this signing is that Sheffield haven't relied on cast off Poole riders, or waited to see which riders can't be fitted into other teams, but have gone their own way and done it themselves. A very positive sign for how they will fare in the top flight, in my opinion. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Promotion asked the fans how they'd like to start the season. Belle Vue was by far the most popular answer. They asked the fans what they wanted, that is what the fans said, that is what the fans are getting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
