2014 Gp Calendar
Ghostwalker replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I have seen claims a few months ago regarding that a GP will be staged at Friedrich-Ludwig-Jahn-Sportpark in Berlin. http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=74213&st=30#entry2330383 -
Wild Cards 2014
Ghostwalker replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
According to http://www.speedwaynyheter.se/jonsson-far-wild-card-2/ Andreas Jonsson, Tomasz Gollob, Chris Holder and Grigoruj Laguta have been offered wild cards for 2014. However Gorgorij have asked for some more time to decide if he wants it or not. -

It seems you have forgotten already about Nicholls & Harris... -
2014 Gp Calendar
Ghostwalker replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
IN what way? There are at least 6 rounds that needs allocation in total, 2 quali-rounds 2. Semi-finals race-off final. KL will have one of the semis, Bydgoszcz will have the race-off and final. That leaves three rounds that needs allocation. Bellamy have said earlier that BSI have been in negotiations with Smederna (about a SWC round).The rumour is that Västervik might get one instead. This would be the same as last year when Eskilstuna were favourites to hold the race-off and final but when Dackarna/Målilla were awarded it. -

Wild Cards 2014
Ghostwalker replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Why? Surely you can't decide what others should be allowed to question? Who are you to decide that everyone else should be forced to agree about your opinions? Gollob is most definitely questionable. @Iris123, Laguta should be included because he is possible the best rider outside the GP-series. He have been a very consistent scorer in the leagues for many years but have always been overlooked for a wild card. He is definitely a top 8 candidate and possible a top 5 candidate. I don't know how much you have seen of him but I have seen allot of him this year and he have been very good at finding gaps for overtaking. Regarding Gollob I do hope that BSI continues what they have started with Emil, Holder, Tai and Darcy by bringing in a new fresh young face that will pick up the fight with the other young stars mentioned above. Add Hampel, NKI, Nicki and Laguta to that and we're for a real treat. -
Wild Cards 2014
Ghostwalker replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
can you motivate this? Why are you so confident in this? Gollob have been injured as well but have in mind that Holder also have been injured which means that if both had not been injured Gollob would still probably have finished outside top 8. I can't understand why people are so obsessed with Gollob? He should do what Adams did and bow out of the series. I'd rather have Miedzinski or Dudek (the current would U21 champion) as I think they will add more then an oldie who just don't seem to care. Then Lindgern, why should they give another wild card to Lindgren? What have he shown this season that merits a wild card? AJ missed at least 1½ GPs and have been showing signs of improvement in the last couple of GPs. Lindgren have been as good as he always have been (except for last season). I is usually quite good but just not good enough to get within top 8 in neither the individaul Grand Prix or in the total standings. I also think that Jonsson have a higher capacity then Freddie and Jonsson have rarely needed a wild card to get in to the series ( i think it is twice only) while Freddie have needed a wild card for all except two seasons. Freddie is just another Chris Harris. Jonsson have shown many times that he can finish top 8. He also have 1 podium finishes as well as an additional top 5 finish. -
