spin king 1,923 Posted April 9, 2023 14 minutes ago, Pinny said: Huge shame with no Pedersen, as I said during the winter he is still world class domestically as proven with a full house against top opposition in Poland yesterday. As much as I have always liked Pedersen though, he hasn't exactly covered himself in glory in the UK for some time. Since his early Eastbourne days, he always seemed to put the UK league further down his list of priorities. Who Peterborough sign to replace him now will make or break their season. Has to be a rider in the calibre of Dudek, Magic, Laguta etc to replace him. Poland will always be the main priority for Pedersen as it is where he earns his big money, and it looks like to me as though his Polish club has put their foot down on riding in UK especially with his crashes and injuries he had endured it recent seasons.. His next priority would Denmark probably down to the fact he has numerous lucrative sponsorship deals. I think that a return to ride in this country was a bit fun and some fairly easy money to earn. Its is difficult to see who they will bring in to replace him, riders of Pedersen's calibre will be hard to find. Chris Holder would have been a possibility, not quite up to Pedersen's standard and I think that they may have burnt bridges as far as Holder is concerned.

We've used all our visas and need to apply for more so it can only be an acu licenced rider. Lambert Woffinden Holder Bachelor Cook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No news from Billy Big Spuds since all the talk. 1 hour ago, Flappy said: I'd love to know how much is being asked for it as it's worth nothing Exactly. It can't be silly money surely . It's a weird one, but you would think a passionate supporter of the club (MT) with plenty of money ,who has bought a 26 acre site, but won't spend a bit more to save the club he loves. It must have some value though, although not a great deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Club communication with it's fan base doesn't come at a cost.
