Who Should Be In Gb World Cup Team?
Daniel Smith replied to bri1966's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Either way, on current form both are showing that they maybe deserve a shot. I still wouldn't pick Worrall but they're certainly making it difficult for Middlo to ignore -
King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
We could still see them next season anyway as I jist don't see the EL surviving in it's current format. The novelty of the EL has worn off with me to be honest. In the current format the Premier League is the place to be -
King's Lynn V Stoke Koc 19/06/13
Daniel Smith replied to Bagpuss's topic in National League Speedway
That all sounds very bitter the above post. If Lambert was allowed to ride Premier League he would but being 15 National League is the only option. Regarding only being a 3 average. What else should he be?? Without a league average anywhere else a 3 is the only option available. Regarding only riding at home. He has no need to ride tracks away in the National League as that experience will come next year when he steps up to the PL in April. Everyone is just guessing he's only doing home meetings because he missed the Stoke meeting & it sounds like a bloody good job he did to by the sounds of it. -
King's Lynn V Stoke Koc 19/06/13
Daniel Smith replied to Bagpuss's topic in National League Speedway
No complaints from me at all. Awesome tonight all 7 of the riders That just brings me onto the King's Lynn riders only kidding. Tonight, I have no doubt some of the PL teams would of had a tough night against the Young Stars, they were just bang on form -
Elite League v Premier League Just think about this for a moment before it gets rubbished. If you could pick the top 4 tracks in the EL how many have been on Sky in 2013? King's Lynn Peterborough Wolverhampton Birmingham If you could pick the top 4 tracks from the Premier League how many of those have been on in 2013? Sheffield Somerset Berwick Scunthorpe I believe Sky are picking these meetings purposely to put the BSPA & it's possible new Elite League contact in it's place to force the value down showing that lower league speedway actually has more value than the "Supposed" "Better" Elite League Opinions peeps!!!!!!

I said I wouldn't go to a Young Stars meeting again but never say never. See if I can find something to moan about this time -

Bridger & Cook for me -
Who Should Be In Gb World Cup Team?
Daniel Smith replied to bri1966's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
There's no way I'd pick Worrall. Even as a Stars fan that would be a step to far right now. Let's see what he can dish out in the Stars main body first & could be considered in 2014 when Belle Vue becomes the World Cup track & Worrall's home track too. -

If I was Midlo I'd be busting a gut to get Nicholls to change his mind. He's coming back into some sort of form right at the right time. 1, Chris Harris 2, Tai Woffinden 3, Craig Cook 4, Scott Nicholls / Lewis Bridger That would be my 4. If Nicholls isn't going to ride, I'd put my neck on the line and pick Lewis Bridger. There is something about him I like as a rider. His average doesn't show as a World beater but I think he's ready. He's the total opposite to Kennett, King & Barker who totally crack under pressure. This season, in Bridger I've seen a rider who cracks against the lesser riders but picks it up against the big boys. Also spent serious money on engines going with genuine engine tuners. I want him to be given a go & made it be known to him that this is his last chance to crack it. I'd even say the same to Harris to be honest Kennett & King have had plenty / to many chances. If Bridger fails this year, then it's time to feed in the next set of youngsters. I'd set up test matches for the below 7 GB riders against a Danish - Australia - Swedish - Polish teams in 2014:- Craig Cook - Richie Worrall - Lewis Bridger - Ben Barker (Needs attitude transplant though) - Josh Auty - Richard Lawson - Ashley Birks Behind them as injury cover I'd have:- Kyle Howarth - Ashley Morris - Lewis Kerr Then come 2015 we'll see the emergence of a genuine talent to equal Woffinden in Robert Lambert (17 then) and the like of:- Lewis Rose - Lewis Blackbird - Stefan Nielsen (If he'd pick GB, I'm not sure) - Steve Worrall - Tom Perry - Adam Ellis - Joe Jacobs __________________________________________________________________________________ I honestly believe we'll see a change in cycle from 2016 and TeamGB will have an emergence of talent and become competitive in Europe again. I genuinely believe that. BUT, there is one major factor that needs challenging. The BSPA & the associated promoters. We have real, and I mean REAL World class potential talent ready to go but they need help. Hence why I believe International challenge matches are the way forward, Home & Away but the BSPA has to be the main backer. -

I can't believe some are not enjoying this meeting. Absolutely awesome so far. OK, the leader may be miles out front but the battles for the lower placings are out of the top draw. -

Somerset Cases Rebels V Edinburgh 11/06
Daniel Smith replied to Starman2006's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Top class meeting. Much better than anything served up by the Elite League on Sky so far. I can't be some are still moaning by saying the track was slick. Was it bull arks. The riders were suggesting it was slick but only slicker than normal standards. Compare it to trash like Lakeside, Poole, Coventry, Belle Vue, Somerset looked super grippy & I think that's the statement people are trying to make. -

I've just assumed Porsing will be on assessed 5.5 - 6.00 average -
King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Again, another rider I know nothing about but I applaud the management & promotion for not hanging around. With the new line up I'd move Alden to no'2, Schlein to 4 with Stead at 5. Our middle order has been to weak & Schlein at 4 adds more strenght in depth. 1. Iversen 2. Alden 3. Porsing 4. Schlein 5. Stead 6. Worrall 7. Lebedev -
Good news for the Young Stars as Robert Lambert has agreed to fulfil as many NL fixtures as possible for the remainder of the season.

Maybe he'd watched Poole on TV and thought "there's no chance I'm racing that dog rubbishe of a track" & prefers the silky smooth Norfolk Arena. Money isn't everything -

Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Will reserve judgement on the new signing. Never heard of him so can't really have an opinion. Give it 2 month when we've at least had 2 home meetings
