The Dog 413 Posted January 20, 2022 Maybe the powers that be are hoping to get the playoff final organised for the August Bank Holiday, hopefully decent weather and a lot of fans/families attending. Make a change to showcase the finale in sunshine rather than a cold Mon in November... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speedway star today says LR is waiting on 5th rider to come back to him. No mention of the 6th or 7th riders. I really believe LR can not source riders. Those that may be available want to much money for the new consortium. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waiting to see the fixtures so see availability I’m sure they had the draft fixtures weeks ago so that seems a nonsense. Any Dane I would suggest is out of the equation due to danish league matches being on Wednesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Birmingham's fixtures are out today and the drafts must have been done soon after Brum Committed to ride on? Getting on for a month since last rider was announced. Other week LR was waiting on 2 riders to return paperwork guess if foreign taking time to get them back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sings4Speedway 3,246 Posted January 20, 2022 12 minutes ago, Falcon1983 said: Michael Haertel Nico Covatti Norick Blodorn or Keynan Rew Haertel is dangerous, Covatti would be great but settled, Rew would more likely want a PL to go with it but Blodorn is a possibility given he will have UK racing this season already. The best chances are riders already comitted to racing in the UK this year which are few and far between. Brum have positioned themselves as desperate by going to work late so even the Sedgeman level riders can start naming thier price rather than being grateful of a team place anywhere. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last 12 matches he averaged 3.18 (exc bonus) maybe there's your reason. (He looked great when I saw him but that was in a brief purple patch in July/Aug) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
