Dandelion 775 Posted July 31, 2021 Isn't Pedersen banned? Or did that get overturned and I just missed that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cue Ball 416 Posted July 31, 2021 He appealed, so the sentence was suspended until it had been heard I believe. In true speedway fashion, I imagine that the appeal will be heard in October, the 6 month ban will be upheld which should just about take him up until the new season starts… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Third Man 2,211 Posted August 1, 2021 SHEFFIELD have moved to sign Stefan Nielsen as they make a reserve change in time for Monday’s trip to King’s Lynn One change, and Batchelor to ride at 3 with the new averages, obviously dont trust him with heat 13 Just the Bates situation to sort now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BobC 664 Posted August 1, 2021 Have to call Sheffield, Poole 2 from now on! Apart from Pickering, all are ex PIrates! You even knicked our track licence! Both Stefan and Danyon have worked very hard for Poole this season. Sheer hard graft from both of them. Look after them, please. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We only had Batch for one season and that was in 2007! He was really good that season apart from getting in trouble with doing wheelies on the way to the tapes and not knowing when to settle for a 2nd place rather than going for the tiniest gaps for the win! Good times! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They have plenty of meetings in hand over Ipswich They still have to win them in hand, which they don’t appear to doing right now but yes I agree on paper they should be in the top 4.
