At 67 yo I prefer vergin (virgin?) "stat" man. Now retired, no-one wants me any more lol .

*very good “stat”man

While I totally agree with what you say, and I know you are a verging “ stat” man, someone who can win heat 1 would help as well 😂. Totally agree he has been a godsend, and when Charles got injured not 1 person really disagreed that he was the best replacement available.

This is one that could go either way, r/r should suit both teams. I fancy Poole to just shade it.

Must be very awkward in the Matt Ford household, being he lives there

PC’s very best years were at the start of the 4 valve revolution when he was one of the very first riders to benefit from the introduction and factory backing which forced every rider to catch up …a fantastic rider but every top rider is in at every development forcing everybody else into catch up to keep up I agree current bikes are not suited to most small British tracks but given the right track and the right riders the actual racing is probably better than I have ever seen

Don't worry all the young English guys will stay. Number 1 will be a straight swap.

Yes pulled out of home meeting, still suffering from his previous crash when he had a punctured lung.

Pardubice 4 qualifiers Przyjemski 15 Drejer 12 Bednar 12 McDiarmid 12

Parnitsky out => one wildcard accounted for.

I fear he will try & battle on even though probably not fit to. He also must need income with little to nothing coming in via his racing. I think he knows he may be on his last chance to make it work in Europe. He has in the main been shunned in POL/SWE/DK and I wonder anyway how many UK teams would have gone for him after the end of last seasons behaviour. I think a lot will feel that at best this guy is a 4 or max 5 pointer even if fit which would tie in with how he was performing in POL. He didn't impress in their U24 League and progresed even less when appearing in their lower league/s. Personally I think its only Cairns & Rushen over performing which is keeping him in the team but that option will go as they both move into the main team and they lose the option to replace his rides when required. The Ford's may just persevere with him rather than pay for a better overseas option in the hope they can get away with it, but I am not convinced and just hope he doesn't cost the club trophy wise.

Just to have my pennyworth. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't have signed Klindt, but under the circumstances he has been a godsend. The last 3 weeks at home the bloke has won heats 13 & 15, ensuring the Bears have won 3 last heat deciders. What more do people want?

A fair call... I don't remember PC needing leading link forks, a lay down engine, electric ignition timings, nor a lap top in the pits, to make a Speedway bike "sing".. If BZ got some "Pride" coloured handlebars with matching mudguards, every NDL rider in the land would buy the same, thinking that was "the secret" to his success... It is too small a sport to move onwards and onwards with technology, to gain a (whatever?), as it can only restrict participation due to costs... Dan T's VLOG is fantastic (clubs please take note), and his workshop must have thousands of pounds of spares in it... Hence clubs then need to pay riders enough to afford all this equipment... And, in the UK, to achieve what exactly?....

Result 1st Simon Jul Vindum 15 2nd Moses Oberg 14 3rd Egon Sichting 9

Well you did ask😂

Soon to have a better reserve pairing than Poole 🤭 Redcar have been a tough team to judge this year, missing a "2nd heat leader" but great reserves

Rowe sitting in the pits at Wroclaw last night?he was named at No8.

I don't think any rider resigns, not normally their choice.

Bowes missing again…….Shock.

Does that happen in Denmark?

The general ineptitude that pervades speedway organisational levels seems well in play here. If the goal of qualifying was to determine the best 15 riders, why would you stack 4 of the 5 top SGP2 (2025 Finals) riders, now with a years more experience, in the one round at Pardubice? Tough draw for the rest of the field, who are right up against the odds here. Similar thing happened earlier this year in the Challenge Quals as well, lopsided events. I realize there would be a draw involved but surely it would make more sense if the higher ranked riders were spread across the qualifiers rather than put in the same one.

Maybe the bike testers were about again 😜

As long as he resigns for the pilots on his current 5 point average 😜
