Ghostwalker 1,867 Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) He is in the current team declaration. http://www.speedwaygb.co/14issues/el_issue2.pdf Ok, I did not now that he had changed his mind. Edited April 3, 2014 by Ghostwalker Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BWitcher 12,453 Posted April 3, 2014 Ok, I did now that he had changed his mind. He hasn't. Holder was simply named in the Poole team to race in the Elite Shield fixture at Swindon, which was postponed. It was a one-off and Ward will take his place for the forthcoming league fixtures. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bavarian 770 Posted April 18, 2014 Poole would probably be without Holder on May 10, as he rides in the SBP at Landshut. But would Eastbourne agree to postoned the league meeting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 15 Posted April 22, 2014 So Gollob and Hampel with represent Poland with Pawlicki (Shamek) as reserve. Makes the competition a joke that in a pairs competition Poland are going to have been represented by 5 riders FFS! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iris123 21,191 Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) The competition is a joke if you want to look at it like that.Let's be fair,some people are just looking to find fault.It is a series,which i am not sure has ever been done before.But in many if not most competitions with qualis and then finals you will get different riders in team or pairs events.I agree it would be better to have the same riders in all meetings,but also can see why riders might be selected for different tracks etc In the end it is a hopefully good speedway meeting with a meaningless title if you want to see it like that.The main thing is the riders get decent competition and money,the fans get value for money and the promoters are happy .Anything else is just moaning.......I'd guess Landshut and the fans who go are ok with the Polish line-up Edited April 22, 2014 by iris123 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Pedaler 149 Posted May 3, 2014 So Gollob and Hampel with represent Poland with Pawlicki (Shamek) as reserve. Makes the competition a joke that in a pairs competition Poland are going to have been represented by 5 riders FFS! So what? This is an event where pairs of riders represent their country. (or NOT in the case ot Lame GB) Just like in the SWC, if the composition of the team changes from round to round, then so be it. It could never have been a case of two riders being chosen and that paring being unchangeable, else what would have happened in the event of injuries etc. Yet again, an event pioneered abroad gets poo-poo'd. And of course in Britain we have something much better don't we? We have REAL competitions don't we? Organised by "proper" promoters in the guise of the BSPA, eh? Like the ERC perhaps? 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
