Perhaps you would like wolves to sack Skornicki and Masters and bring in Stefan Nielsen and James Sarjeant??? Skornicki is riding on a British licence this year.

That's not good news with Howarth and the reserves being the only ones who can take rides. Poole have the perfect chance to get an away win and seal there first and possibly only trophy. Fingers crossed for Adam even tho he is likely to take some time settle back into racing.

What confusion? Lebedevs was announced as a 7 ages ago.

Yet you were wanting Wolves to ditch Masters for King. Like you say..... what a load of bullc#ap.

I believe Bates is a Sheffield asset so it's the Championship that has priority.

And sounds like you like to pick on Wolves and make an example of there team building structure. You would have more credibility if you selected other top flight teams with a similar point if view. Someone clearly has an issue with Wolves, mask your nation first argument that's now not believable. King is generally tripe around Monmore. Bet you would have loved us to be weaker to suit your so called nation first argument, fooling no one.

Exactly, which makes the comment from HM all the more ludicrous.

But Poles like Skornicki put there British commitments first so we shouldn't tar everyone with the same brush.

It's already in print saying he is on a 7.

Fair enough. Thought you were quoting some specification recognition on track sizes. Birmingham you might say is medium in size but small it isn't!

Yea we know that. Just saying Wolves MIGHT be interested in using him!

As a Wolves asset he might be wanted by his parent club.

Graversen Smith Shanes Ayres Wajknecht Bailey Greaves Perks

Indeed. That goes for all of them. Hopefully Greaves will score similar at home.

Got to agree. Definitely has natural talent and born battler. We have several number sevens who really shouldn't be in the top flight yet so it's going to be very similar to the first year of the draft reserves. Shanes is certainly not the weakest number 7 and I wouldn't be surprised if he does okay. Likewise have watched him on several occasions over the past couple of seasons.

Says who?

You could apply that logic to several teams with foreigners in. Still pretty c@ap logic.

Bjerre is the first Bee to have gained a contract.

Agree regards Jack. Birmingham isn't a small track.

Bewley is definitely ahead already. And I believe we have a bright future with some great youngsters coming thru. I was only really using riders yet to prove themselves out the NL.

Next generation of top flight heat leaders and world cup riders.Smith and JPB are exceptional, Hume has improved rapidly. Zack stalled a bit last year but still think he will do nicely in the future.

Would seem a win win to me. Of course people can just download and print off their own sheets if cost bothers them that much. I prefer a programme and it's all part of the experience to me.

exactly. It adds to the league having decent standard riders continuing on their speedway career at a less hectic schedule. I think the standard of the league itself is vastly improved and dare I say a much more professionally run thing. Some clubs coming into the league are adding to its standards also. Having been a part time fan of that standard league for a while I now see a lot more and that's what gives me most pleasure seeing the next generation progress. At Birmingham it was an absolute pleasure to watch the likes of Blackburn, Smith, zack, Hume progressing over the season and those 4 could well be in the world cup squad in 5 years time. Almost as pleasurable as watching my beloved Wolves win the title again. I'm not sure about that. Team's that have old hands as the dominant force have been few and far between the past couple of seasons. Looking at last year's line ups only Stoke had a more prominent older standard of rider, whilst the likes of Hay in his late twenties is only a recent convert. Most line ups had a good mixture with the prominence on youth and next generation.

Good idea. People should be able to walk into any speedway office and buy a race formula for a nominal charge.

Why? Some riders just aren't good enough to move up or are at the tail end of their career and happy to stay involved. Nothing wrong in that. Just like some riders aren't good enough to move up from 2nd division racing to top tier standard. All riders have varied abilities. No one should be punished for not being able to or wanting to move up.
