  1. The key mistake that Team GB made this time was to listen to the recommendations of Kennett's 'mentor' John Davis and EL Team Manager Rosco that Eddie would do a job at KL!!!! :wink: As for the team changes for the play-off, team spirit will be crucial (Woffy,Barker,Bridger?!) and I'm sure the Aussies will be delighted at the inclusion of Barker!! Team GB Manager Phil Morris (rather than Team Coach Middlo) will need all his 'skills' particularly against the Aussies, with an 'interest' in both camps!! :shock:

    All I ever see this bleached blonde mentor do is slap riders on the ass when they push off, why on earth is he there :blink:

  2. The team did its job they are in the ride off. Eddie is on a downward slope at the minute It happens to every one at some time. Look at GOLLOB. Kennet is on a loser at the moment If he had scored a max Swindon fans would have been on his back. I would still pick Eddie for thursday. His confidence must be at an all time low and it needs boosting not made worse .

    May be a sports psychologist may be helpful to team GB

    Don't agree with any of that, and comparing Kennett to Gollob is like comparing MK Dons to Barcelona....


  3. I agree - if there is a change Ben wont be it.

    Also agree that this will be really tough.

    Auty,Howe,Jorgensen,Klindt plus r/r(presumably) is very solid.

    Will be tight and I would be very happy with an 8 point win.

    We were wrong there, and that will make the task on Thursday even harder. Choice of guest will be pivotal....


  4. I think that the 3 "qualifying!!" meetings we are faced with in the next few days are going to show that the time has now come for this "format" to be re-vamped somehow. Its obvious who the 4 finalists are going to be (Poland, Australia, Denmark and UK) and quite frankly the events this week are purely a money making exercise for the Speedway authorities. One of the suggestions I could make to make the qualifiers a bit more interesting would instead of "jokes" like Latvia being involved, is to have a "Rest of The World" team, which would at least slightly make it a bit more competitive. Bring on the Final next week and get these 3 "practice" meetings out of the way.

    Have the host nation pulled out of the final then without telling anyone :blink:

  5. At the start of the season I was concerned we had sen the best of Adam and thought Ricky would be the rider that steps up to be third heat leader.

     

    At present Adam is back to his old self and scoring good points while Ricky just seem to lack top end power and is often getting caught during a race. All this years team have done well and wouldn't change a thing but now Ty is out for the season we either have to find a replacement that wil score more than Adam, Ricky and the reserves would score using R/R.

     

     

    Heart says Michelsen ...... Head says Ljung (or Nermark)

    Ljung would be a great signing, been scoring well abroad. However, I expect many have tried to tempt him over this year, and he is one of the few available riders not to have ridden for Poole this year......yet... :D
