King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I have to say, & I thought I'd never say it but the novelty of the Elite League??? is starting to wear really thin with me. Main reason is down to the lack of racing, this league is just stop start all the time. Missing riders & injuries etc stacking up with unsuitable cover available blah blah blah. I really am starting to miss the Premier League & seeing the PL meetings on Sky they've been head & shoulders above anything the EL has served -

Good luck to all tonight & hope it's a good evening's speedway for all involved & spectating. Will be watching the updates -
British GP 2013
Daniel Smith replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
But it wasn't a certain crash. Vaculik went down to save himself from a potential crash hence why he laid it down first. Because the crash did happen we automatically call it nothing is ever certain. He guessed. In a GP earlier in the season, Iversen was excluded for taking evasive action for what he thought would be a certain incident. All riders should be excluded on the basis of guess work. -

I keep changing my mind over the Heat 14 crash. One thing I am certain of it should have been 2 riders excluded. Vaculik went down 1st, alone and should have gone. No question. Ok, he took evasive action but only for a potential crash not for the actual crash. Woffy or Freddie should have also been excluded but I can't make my mind up who. Freddie chucked in a proper dive bomb on turn 3 but I'm not sure that caused the crash. Not one T.V. angle gives clear evidence of contact. Another thing is for certain, Woffy collected Pedersen but the cause is inconclusive so for that reason I'd of excluded Woffy. But like I said, tomorrow I'll probably say it was Freddie's fault -

Looking at the pictures they're using different material than usual. It looks much much paler than previous year's. Why mess and change thing's that ain't broken? I'm doubley gutted as it's the first time in 6 years to be at the Cardiff GP -
Gb V Australia - Ipswich 30th May
Daniel Smith replied to 2ndbendbeerhut's topic in International World of Speedway
Leigh Lanham FFS, I mean, how is British Speedway supposed to move forward with a selection like that??? Building possible future riders is what this should be about. Someone like Lewis Kerr should be included IMO -

Fisher 6.02 and Howe 5.87 at the moment so have to wait until after the 1st June -

It is, but 2 big fat 0's tomorrow night & a big fat 0 Wednesday could fix that -
Could A Barry Hearn Type Be Good For Speedway?

Yep, but the BSPA members won't allow it. It's as simple as that -
King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Yep, agree with Baggy. The best EL side we've had for some time and already get the feeling this season is a write-off. If feel a slide towards the foot of the table is imminent. Not saying we will be bottom but at the moment the only way we're going is down. It will be incredible hard work to pick this back up. Utter disaster -

Can't see it being someone of the quality of Bech signing at all. It will be someone from the PL doubling up im sure -
British Final 13th May 2013
Daniel Smith replied to mdmc82's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
I think this has been one of the most boring & poorest British Finals for a fewyears. I may be a little harsh but Woffy apart IMO the future of British Speedway looks abysmal on tonight's display -

It seems Drop a Cog has dropped a clanger & taken a Steve Shovlar style embarrassment holiday. -
Kings Lynn Young Stars Vs Coventry Storm 8th May 7.30pm
Daniel Smith replied to rhidassa's topic in National League Speedway
Well, I will chuck my perspective on NL racing. Last season missed only 3 meetings & took in this meeting on Wednesday & I'm retiring from National League spectating. I keep trying to enjoy it but I just can't. I just find the racing scary, apart from the top 2 / 3 riders in the teams the rest just wobble around IMO. The crashes / falls are too regular & after watching PL / EL racing I think most supporters of those clubs would be of the same opinion unless the NL team is of a stand alone status. No more for me. -

Howe knows his services are temporary. He's even said so in interviews but he will give his all to score points. He appreciates the club gave him the call to have a go. The most important thing is he scores points at home, away from home we're bound to struggle a little as the mechanics of the team have been thrown all over due to injury. Barring anything happening this weekend we should be back to a full 7 man team on Wednesday. The amount of injuries our riders have picked up so far this season is actually more of a concern -

Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Who's panicking???? Nobody is screaming for changes just that we're suffering injury after injury right now. Over time, having to constantly use guests & r/r will have a serious affect on where we finish. There is a lot to be said for stability & team spirit and that will be slowly lost. Fingers crossed when all return we stay away from further injuries and all will be perfect -

Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Well, worrying times for us Stars fans. Started the season in great hope & very quickly things have turned bad. It seems that now David Howe is on the injury list along side Korneliussen, Schlein & Stead. We've managed to hang in there at the top end of the league but if this continues our season is going to crash & burn just as quick. -
Belle Vue Aces Vs Poole Pirates 29/4/2013
Daniel Smith replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Brock, turn it around again under those circumstances but Poole were at home. What do you think Fat Mord would have done. I believe Belle Vue were wrong how they went about it. It was completely absurd. But I couldn't imagine turning up to a Lynn home meeting with only 4 riders on show. I know I'd be gutted -

Just a thought that just popped into my nut & at the moment is unemployed & needs another Month to be ready which fits I have a feeling it may well be Adam Roynon. Coventry have re-declared there team so he is available The lad absolutely loves the NA Just a thought. -
Belle Vue Aces Vs Poole Pirates 29/4/2013
Daniel Smith replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I see UKM continues to talk bull-locks about the kings Lynn v birmingham fixture in 2009 (get over yourself man, 5 days my ass) but anyway I feel the facts have to be mentioned. The failure happened during a stockcar meeting on a bank holiday sunday weekend which continued throughout. It was assessed on the Monday and couldn't be fixed until the following Monday due to obsolete power supply. Bare in mind, the floodlights at kings Lynn are the old hackney speedway setup. Understandably birmingham kicked up a fuss (both clubs really fell out over this) and an SCB official was sent to investigate & kings Lynn where cleared of any wrong doing. + we had a far superior side than Birmingham in 09 Below was on the BSPA website http://ip133.216-86-156.static.steadfastdns.net/news.php?extend.4862 -

Just wait now for the usual Belle Vue fans to come on here and defend their club. Should be a good laugh -
Scunthorpe V Workington - Tuesday, April 30th (premier League) (7.30pm) Live On Sky Sports
Daniel Smith replied to lucifer sam's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Speedway fans can be depressing & moan at nothing. The best meeting on Sky this year so far by a country mile & really enjoyed the banter between Nige, Alun & Tai. At times it was funny. Some folk really are such a bore moaning about Pearson for no reason what so ever. Well done Sky, both teams & Scunny speedway for providing a real speedway venue.- 220 replies

King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It's the right move by the team management. Giving Klindt meetings at reserve and still score nothing we'd then have no average available to replace him with. Absolutely no risk at all. Howe is more than capable of scoring 4-5 points home & away. Really don't understand the fuss. Don't perform & you're out & unfortunately for Klindt he has just been dreadful. Also, May is going to be a tough month to allow for confidence building. Home & away to Swindon, away to Wolves then home to Poole & Peterborough. Not enough time for p!ssing about I'm afraid folks -

So we get a guest for Steady now. Much better than R/R. Good stuff, although much prefere Stead in the team but he'd be missing anyway with Sheffield riding.
