Speedball 566 Posted December 4, 2015 Thing is if Coventry drop either Sarjeant or Bates, neither could replace Kerr as both ride for Thursday PL teams. Would have to be Roynon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,658 Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) What a pathetic comment. What is it about some Poole supporters they have to come out with such rubbish. Nicki Pedersen has been around for many years and is a credit to his profession. Professional to the last and will undoubtedly bring much needed spotlight back to the port itself. Just because he had a fallout with Peterborough last time here, doesn't s deserve comments like the above. If he is coming back to the Elite league , I say well done to Buster and co for showing positive thinking. Everyone is aware the league is in desperate need of a massive pick-me p. With comments like the above, lets hope they will be rammed back down their throats. It is little wonder, one body likes Poole, when you read crap like that..... Woah hold on there GRW123 get down off your high horse. It was a serious question/statement (no emoticons)!! Sorry if you think it pathetic especially after all your negativity in almost every post!! A number of GP stars have said they would only be interested in a short term contract (March/April/May?) in the EL. I agree with others that it would be great to have Nicki back in the EL - but I do question whether it would be for a whole season. NP is already racing in 3 countries, is also in the Euros as well as the GPs. Why would he suddenly agree to do EL, when he's chosen to give it a miss for several seasons. He surely wants competitive racing which he's only likely to get when up against Poole and Belle Vue and possibly Swindon in the EL's weakened format. I don't have any recollection of what happened at Peterborough before?! Not interested - but it clearly sticks in the minds of some...........!!

mrss 691 Posted December 4, 2015 If Stars let Kerr go they will regret it. They should have had a backup plan if Niels said no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy17 226 Posted December 4, 2015 Sarjeant wouldnt be an option for Lynn - signed for the Witches as well... Roynon then! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,658 Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) No team can have 2 tier 1 reserves - (not even Poole ), unless of course the new BSPA Chairman has been able to manipulate change the rules, that nobody has seen yet?!

Daniel Smith 5,675 Posted December 4, 2015 he can't and won't be able to to start the season. You can't add a main team rider at reserve to start the season. That's what the draft positions at reserve are for. Kyle Howarth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,827 Posted December 4, 2015 Kyle Howarth Who was on the list so perfectly fine. You can't add a rider who isn't on it and doesn't want to be . That would be cheating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Speedball 566 Posted December 4, 2015 Kyle Howarth But Kyle Howarth was on the EDR list from the start, that's the point SteveBrum was making. Lambert wasn't on the declared draft list at the start so can't subsequently be added after the event. Any replacement for Kerr would have to be someone on that list and hasn't been picked. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
castrolargh 263 Posted December 4, 2015 On the ippo thread it seem like they may be looking for a new heat leader? Maybe lynn will change to Thursday, sign nicki p and keep lewis k? Early Christmas in norfolk? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
speedy17 226 Posted December 4, 2015 Could be completely unrelated, but on speedwaygb.co 2016 Team Declarations we have only Robert Lambert confirmed... Lakeside have no one though, everyone else up to date with their press releases. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given that Nicki has already signed for Lejonen, Leszno and Holsted this is a perfectly reasonable line of enquiry. Just how many riders rode regularly in Sweden, Poland, Denmark AND England last year (not to mention the SGP and SEC)? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bit odd that lakeside have no one confirmed on BSPA site when AJ, Nilsson and Kennett confirmed on Lakeside website - along with both reserves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,707 Posted December 4, 2015 No team can have 2 tier 1 reserves - (not even Poole ), unless of course the new BSPA Chairman has been able to manipulate change the rules, that nobody has seen yet?! Any riders from the tier 1 list not in a team line up became available for selection in tier 2 - a change from previous seasons. Thought you'd know that .... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsunami 10,219 Posted December 4, 2015 Probably moved back to Denmark by now? This Poole fan has no problem with Nicki P coming back. Would be quite a coup to get him back over here! Nicki sold up and moved back to Denmark during 2015. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
