The White Knight 9,039 Posted April 28, 2014 i thought you were done with dashing round after the last time i had to pick you off the steps So it was you Diamonds7 - again - many thanks for that. It was because of that fall they had to do the work on the Grandstand. I was heavy then, and when I fell I must have weakened the foundations. :rofl: I tried to find like a polish league forum thing or like the speedway gb website but polish but I couldn't find one I'm sorry for annoying everyone with my constant suggestions You are NOT annoying me Diamonds. :) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HadrianDog 291 Posted April 28, 2014 Nilsson rides div 2 in Poland for Start Gniezno. That is one of the problems you are going to have, by being a Sunday race-night, a lot of the type of riders people think we need will be racing in Poland, therefore ruling them out. The only way round it would, of course, switch back to a Monday, but we lose about 10%-15% of the crowd apparently when we run on an 'ordinary' Monday (not Bank Hols though). Also, on the 'big hitter' front, can Newcastle actually afford that type of rider on the crowds we are currently getting? The age old query for any management in our currant position-can we afford not to-then again do any of us want to see the sort of knee-jerk reaction ala Sheffield.

HadrianDog 291 Posted April 28, 2014 Yeah , Poland is a pain in the arse Is Kenni Larson 1-fit 2-racing{other than Poland}3-recovered and any good 4-available on a sensible average ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsunami 10,219 Posted April 28, 2014 Is Kenni Larson 1-fit 2-racing{other than Poland}3-recovered and any good 4-available on a sensible average ? Available, but you would need to drop 2 to get him in. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HadrianDog 291 Posted April 28, 2014 And best of all he does not have a team in Poland. He could be a Diamond very soon. While too like Adam, is he not a terrible risk when we need a sure bet points scorer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ruffdiamond 6,115 Posted April 28, 2014 He was dire at our place in the Sheffield meeting. and the time before that,,, a shame, but it's the way it is :-(,,, but I would'nt be sharpening the axe just yet,,, cos apart from Robbo, (who looks as fresh as ever),,, none of the rest have been very consistant,,, hopefully they'll be pulling up trees late in the season,,, when it's time to take the playoffs,,, just IMO mind :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigeddiechek 1,094 Posted April 28, 2014 Having made a bit of a chump of ones self believing that speedway was going to return to Berrington Lough, I`d have thought you would've considered things a bit more. But it appears not. Well I was down in Jesmond visiting my Uncle Monty and there was not a drop. Hoses been out methinks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arson fire 4,785 Posted April 28, 2014 Well I was down in Jesmond visiting my Uncle Monty and there was not a drop. Hoses been out methinks. it never rains in jesmond.Thing is that even though Ludde can have iffy meetings, he was still our top points scorer so he must have some cracking meetings that some people forget.if he average 8.5 or 9 aye... Averaging 7 is hardly having cracking meetings mate... Or do you mean 'better' meetings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DIAMONDS 159 Posted April 28, 2014 Is Kenni Larson 1-fit 2-racing{other than Poland}3-recovered and any good 4-available on a sensible average ? Kenni's average would be 11.59 (I think) He is fit He races in Sweden and Poland Kenni would be just a little good He would be able to fit in but major changes to the squad would have to happen and even I know there's not a hope in hell of it happening.

HadrianDog 291 Posted April 28, 2014 Available, but you would need to drop 2 to get him in. Thought as much but just think of the clamour from the fans. A true number one capable of causing devastation anywhere-alas a pipe dream. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
