There is no way that at least one Brit wont be in the series! It would make bad commercial sense for the FIM! I agree neither of our Brits this season will make it, but i think Bomber will be in it next season either by qualifying through the final qualifier or as a wildcard. I also think we may get a second rider in through the wildcards! Tai or Eddy i believe will be offered a wildcard.

I believe Nicholls is still captain so will he not still be there in a 'non riding' capacity?

I would like to thank Rob Lyon for actually doing the right thing for the future of british speedway. I was quite shocked to see Danny King in, as i thought Rico might have got the nod. However im delighted that he is giving the youngsters a go. Bottom line is we aren't going to win the world cup this year, or next for that matter so give these guys the experience now and we will find out if they are good enough or will be good enough in the future. It irritates me when i hear kelvin tatum saying things like "theres a lack of experience there". How are these guys supposed to get it? Other countries give the young lads a go so im glad we are, it wouldnt surprise me to see young Darcy line up for the Aussies for example! Nicholls hasnt been good enough and i do expect to see Rico come in for Leszno (as long as we get there) probably for either King or Bridger. However i wouldnt bring Nicholls in! All in all well done Mr Lyon!
