gazzac 1,007 Posted March 10, 2020 I take your point, but he did make a typically boring gate and go Hancock race into an exciting, controversial one for the veiwer and as I said earlier, if he's an inch in front he wont shut off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m no Nicki hater but imo he crosses the line and I’m sure if you asked his peers they’d agree You could use the same search for many other riders. Being selective doesn’t prove your point. We disagree. Move on. For the record btw, I’ve just watched the clip and again, I don’t see what he does wrong. That is not crossing a line that is going for a gap and taking an opportunity.

Charlieboy 410 Posted March 10, 2020 This is why nicki has been signed by sheffield,he's not had a race yet but there seems to be plenty of excitement building up already judging by all the posts on here .Personally I'm looking forward to it myself now,just hope the weather is better for the season than it is at the moment.Theres a buzz around British speedway again,the first for a long time,so hopefully we get a good summer and plenty of entertaining speedway. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzac 1,007 Posted March 10, 2020 Not being quite as savvy as I'd like to be on attaching things on here, have a look at the 2006 Slovenian GP final, I know he's not quite the rider he was then, but love or hate him as has been said making British speedway buzz again, especially with Crump on the scene again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it shows what pedersen is , nothing but a give it cant take it guy shoving the bike at zagar kicking then running away like a school yard fight. Je can them mouth off in the pits with hus crew to look after him, still what goes round comes around. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This is not why I go to speedway certainly don't look forward to seeing it ,anyone can try too hard make a mistake but not just knock someone off and act in such an arrogant manner afterwards there is nothing endearing in that ! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bent billy 26 Posted March 14, 2020 All the doom and gloom merchants have their opinion yet again, rumour after rumour about Niki if the supporters put as half as much effort in to the speedway club as the promotion have over the last few years and especially last winter they would do well, instead of finding fault with everything at the club and starting falsehoods off about who is riding at Sheffield and for how long. Its time now to get behind the club not slag everything off 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
