Must say i am really pleased for the guy but also gutted. These Poles are 100% on the ball with these youngsters and if I noticed it over the last 2 months of looking at his rides in 4 meetings where he wiped the floor with the likes of Pearson and Hook and gave the likes of Rew a good run for their money then for sure the Poles were all over him. just as with the likes of Brady Kurtz and Lidsey they know a good youngster when they see them. In the past we never had the POL EXL U24 so these lads had to be loaned out (normally to POL LGE 2 sides) for rides here and there. Now they get to ride mid week for a whole season against all the best POL and other Euro/Aussie/Scand young riders coming through. Just a Rew did last season, Maybe Tate will double up in the Danish Lge 1 (the one below their Prem) just as he did for a month or so last season when on a flying visist. Also just posted on the other POL Speedway site last few minutes. Excuse below paragraphs in bold as can't get rid of it after copying first one from the POL site. The discovery of the season in Australia, Tate Zischke became a player of Fogo Unia Leszno. "Byki" informed about the agreement with the 17-year-old, who is growing into one of the greatest hopes of the speedway in Antipodes COULD still do UK as Pearson/Hook/Z.Cook/Jenkins are also in U24 squads and Zach rode that Lge (normally I think on a Tuesday) as well as Poole Wed, similar with Pearson and Jenkins also ride UK Wed. Maybe excludes Plym (Tue) as a possible destination ?? Edited December 29, 2022 by STEVEHOLS54 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indeed, I look at the forum to see people's views on Speedway. Sadly have to look through dozens of posts to find the few actually talking about Poole 2023! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's also signed for Brovst in 2023 presumably as a squad member, so possibly rules him out of Wednesday UK fixtures as well as Tuesdays due to the Polish U24 fixtures ?

Tbh it only matters what it says in the rulebook! If that person has read the rulebook then fair enough. But when discussed a month or so ago, the general conscious was he would be on a 4.

The precedent was set when Somerset signed brady kurts who had only done a few meetings in Denmark thinking he would come in on a 4 only to find out he would be a 5,so a reliable source MAY have informed me.
