Signing Nicholls as a 28 day replacement would depend on how many Monday meetings Ipswich will have and how many TV commitments Nicholls has, dont they they'd get a facility for Scott missing for TV duties? As for Doyle, yes he irreplaceable but he has to be replaced so looking at some options I'd say most likely are.... Laguta - based on him riding here last year, and potentially riding with Emil, i think this looks most likely. Vaculik - was almost at Leicester or Sheffield i recall not long ago, he would be my preferred option. Dudek - he wanted to ride in the UK but priced himself out to an extent Lambert - will ride later in the season, so all about if he can be convinced to ride here earlier, dont think past comments about foxhall will bother Louis -
No he's not. He's already married (I made the same mistake presuming it was his wedding!!).

Best wishes to Doyley hope to see him riding for us next season. I hope Chris can come up with a replacement that doesn't end up with Lindgren type visa issues, on saying that, to me Doyley is irreplaceable as a team member in the pits. If Adam is out for a few more weeks perhaps we could persuade Scottie to sign on a 28 day injury replacement. As for Laguta I hope we steer clear, he might be a good rider but he didn't appear to be much of a team player at Peterborough or Kings Lynn. -
Living very close to Wimbledon it was the track I visited twice a week for many years (speedway and stock cars) with my parents and Ronnie Moore was my hero. Hackney was however visited half a dozen times a year with early memories including 'pirate' Provincial League meetings. At that time we used the Central line to Leyton and caught the special bus to the track. The buses were some of the oldest I ever travelled in. Moving forward to the mid 70s and I took my new girlfriend to her first speedway meeting, a young England verses young Poland event. The Poles had an absolutely dreadful evening and when one fell off early in the meeting and my father casually mentioned that the bikes did not have brakes my girlfriends face went sheet white and she could barely watch the rest of the meeting. Moving forward to the late 80s and Race Video asked me to do the commentary at both Hackney and Arena Essex for their Speedway videos. A lasting memory from that time was interviewing Steve Schofield with him stand two steps up the stand steps so our heads were at the same height for the camera. I just wish Wimbledon, Hackney and Arena Essex were still running as I miss my weekly fixes of two and four wheel racing.
