Daniel Smith

He has as much right to moan about it as anyone else. He's probably had to use it more often than any of us ever hopes to

What was wrong with the post you'd quoted. Bit harsh to have a dig at Steve But in general you're quite right. Schlein is set to be sidelined for a few weeks and people moan about where he wasn't his treatment to take place. Frankley, that's none of anyone's business except his

Pieszczek would be a 5 minimum as he had an established Ekstraliga average from 2015. He'd be a category 1 rider. Only category 2 riders have assessed 4 averages

I was assuming that's what Speedy was implying, with regards to replacing Schlein rather than Iversen? Come in on 6.55 ave

For me, the biggest factor that has made speedway more boring is all tracks are super slick. This then allows for less mistakes from the rider's which they'd prefer. For the fan's, mistakes allow for overtaking thus creating a better atmosphere. Whether that be to your teams advantage or disadvantaged. Another is Speedway's refusal to absorb modern technology. Instead they're rapping on the knuckles & banning it.

The strange thing is I to find Speedway boring but just keep going in hope. I believe there's a age group that struggle to tolerate the sport 0-20 can't get enough of it 21-30 it's not cool enough 31-50 It's an irritation 51-dead find the love again

I did say could but there isn't an awful lot between the 2 Vetlanda - Leszno will certainly be 1-2, just going with Leszno as favourites for me.

GP: Tai Woffinden SWC: Great Britain (If the tracks sorted by then ) EL: Poole PL: Glasgow

It's all going the same way as Reading, utter disaster

Official averages that go live 18/04/16 ROLLING GREENSHEET AVERAGES GSA Niels-Kristian Iversen 9.13 Robert Lambert 6.29 Rory Schlein 6.48 Mads Korneliussen 5.95 Nicolaj Busk Jakobsen 4.15 Carl Wilkinson 3.20 Simon Lambert 3.11 38.31 (Prior to 18/04/16 team total is 37.57) Troy Batchelor 6.91 Kai Huckenbeck 4.00 Lewis Rose 3.00 So yes, Batchelor will no longer be able to join the team in place of Jakobsen & along side Iversen

Having now seen the full draw for with all teams & riders side by side, Belle Vue have a good chance of finishing 3rd imo. The Danish outfit looks just as weak

& no, Swindon can't have Batchelor back (who is by far & away better than the guff you currently have )

Absolutely nothing. His Mum confirms it isn't his back but the silence is worrying to say the least. After last year an awful lot of people are concerned

Looks like Buster Chapman (BSPA Chairman & King's Lynn owner) is getting involved in Dubai Translation is pretty horrendous so apologies for that https://translate.google.co.uk/translate?hl=en&sl=pl&u=http://www.przegladsportowy.pl/znamy-nazwiska-budowniczych-toru-na-bliskim-wschodzie,artykul,663540,1,12427.html&prev=search

It's pleasing to see you come on and explain track conditions. Appreciated

Yes they still are What did he say for those of us that didn't make it?

Think it is 2+2=5 situation. But, he's always maintained that he's always available for us if in need. So this is how it will role out imo With Huckenbeck being No'8 Iversen will remain in the squad but pick & choose his fixtures once Batchelor is re-introduced to the team i.e. Poole, Belle Vue, Swindon, Wolves fixtures. The other fixtures would see Huckenbeck in for Iversen One week it'll be: 1. Iversen 2. Korneliussen 3. Lambert 4. Schlein 5. Batchelor 6. Wilkinson 7. Rose Another week: 1. Batchelor 2. Huckenbeck 3. Schlein 4. Korneliussen 5. Lambert 6. Wilkinson 7. Rose

Scored paid 9 (6+3) so done his job As the score charts show, all the rider's scored above their averages so job done

Fingers crossed it's just precaution with Schlein. Certainly don't need this right now

For me, the Premier League is a far more competitive competition and the rider's actually seem to care more about who's their watching them. In the EL, rider's turn up, race then p!$$ off without a care. That's the biggest difference Saying that the EL still has a place but it now needs to change & the PL needs to accommodate those changes. An idea:- Elite League 10 teams 8 rider squads 5 rider teams 40.00 Team Average (ex bonus points) 13 heats No Guests or RR (IRR allowed) 9 fixtures per season (so like 6 nations rugby where fixtures alternate the following year) 5 Month Calendar (April > August) inc play-off's (Top 4) & final Fixtures to be ridden Monday's only (TV) Premier League North / South 10 rider squads 7 rider teams 45 Team Average (inc bonus points) 15 heats Home & Away once Current EL only rider averages weighted +15% Wednesday, Thursday, Friday race days only Riders competing in Polish Ekstraliga / Swedish Elitserien / Danish Speedway Liga leagues with averages over 6.00 from previous season excluded Top 2 from each region in the Play-offs March > October season

No, why?

Nobody has suggested getting rid of Huckenbeck. It's a squad this year, he's No'8 so he must be well aware of the situation. If Niels stays with Batch in the team then Huckenbeck will be available at any time to replace poor performers. That's how squads work and team managers finally have something real to deal with

Leicester 28 Swindon 62

That's true but there are mumblings that he's had a change of heart and is staying (fingers crossed)
