Absolutely agree

Practice sessions are less about track time and more about team camaraderie. Just meeting up for the Race-Off isn't enough in my opinion

Ruml was used last season by USA at King's Lynn. Should have gone with him again unless the financial situation had changed

Plenty, especially at the start of the season when there's no Poland or Sweden In the Elite Pairs on the Saturday you could have all EL sides plus guest teams like Piraterna, Vetlanda, Wroclaw, Torùn etc.

Is it definitely KK as the some are suggesting Pepe?

It could work but it'll have to be run early season prior to the Polish Ekstraliga starting. Could be Elite Pairs on the Saturday ELRC on the Sunday Other than that it's simply not possible in the calendar

It just occurred to me on a serious note, with you being such an advocate of the SRBF did you suffer any bad injuries in your time? It would make sense to why it would bother you as to why riders don't do it

Depends how you see long term planning. A rider going out and learning on trick tracks could be good for the future

Agree, Ford cherry picks talent where the riders development has nothing to do with Poole IMO. They're pretty much ready made riders From Premier League to Elite League, there's not a lot in it in terms of stardards For me, the rider's don't further develop until they hit the Polish Ekstraliga & or Swedish Elitserien It's the same at King's Lynn with Robert Lambert. I do not believe he's improved from riding the EL compared to the PL. I think he's improved this season because he's had tasters of the Elitserien league, especially his gating.

oops

No other options really. Best 5 picked

I too understand where shovvy is coming from. Until Emil is back in the GP series he'll just become 'the forgotten man'. The SEC is just a massive pay cheque with no renowned status. Enjoyable TV but means very little, the standard of rider is poor apart from 3-4 riders.

We certainly can win all our home fixtures, a tough ask but we can. 1 away fixture against Leicester left to run. We can pick up the odd away point for keeping it within 6. It's madness to rule us out with 4 matches in hand on Swindon & Lakeside.

Lost me?!?

Great answer

The Revolution Speedway Rob Painter? Where does the 72 fit in?

Absolutely, he deserves at least a phone call but I'm not sure Buster is the type of guy to apologise. Buster is a 'tomorrow's another day' type of guy and what's happened is forgotten and moves on quickly. Edit: The next fixtures - August 4th @Swindon August 10th @Poole August 11th home Poole

The only thing we have to hope is we have some team spirit left. After Wednesday that could easily have been destroyed by our promoter

You laugh but I can picture come the Play-offs an EDR will have a sudden injury and Simon Stead will be used

Clearly wasn't there on Wednesday then? I think you'll find all 14 riders didn't want to know it was just that Schlein took the abuse from Buster

What a complete joke. 2 very experienced EL riders allowed to guest for EDR's Horrendous if this is allowed to happen, the whole integrity of the EDR system destroyed

If anyone is remotely interested the Play-off chase is certainly on after Swindon lose at home tonight. What's to be seen though is if we have a team, togetherness and will to win left.

Get in there The Aces Brings the Stars back in the race

Correct and he's the only person that can call a halt to the meeting but he can only do that with the agreement of all parties as I'd stated. The referee can't simply say enough is enough if any party believes the meeting can continue. Last night that came down to just the King's Lynn management, everybody else wanted out.

Not sure that's quite true though Here's the referee's duties This basically confirms that all parties have to be in agreement for a postponement. A lot of the responsibility of the nonsense last night was our own promotions doing
