Has there been a rule change on Danish fixtures? Previously it had to be a PL 3 pointer as guests or something like that?

And the points they've got are against rider's of no pedigree. Very poor

The way he performed the World Speedway League meeting the other week, it would be criminal not to include him if we get past the qualifier at King's Lynn. There are no Brits except Harris & Woffy better than him right now (excluding Nicholls as he's not interested).

Could not agree more. 1 Worldy race in heat 15, 2 ok races and the rest were crap. Heart 15 showed it's capabilities of being world class track are still there but for some reason or other it's not delivering. It's like Leicester, a drag race to turn 1

Another crap race meeting tonight.

No, end of thread

With you there. Just like the team, I too am lacking confidence in this septet. We would have been stuffed by Swindon at home had Kildermand and Batchelor been available. Andersen and Bomber (for his own team) hold as much threat and should out do a dreadful Bjerre comfortably I agree, but in terms of a guest Tom Stokes would be your best option IMO round King's Lynn

Personally, as a guest for Coventry I wouldn't look past Tom Stokes. This lad is flying round the NA right now. Clegg and Greenwood are unpredictable but at the end of the day any tier 2 rider is likely to only get 3 rides

Can not disagree with any of that. We've not hit 40 points in any way meetings so far this season and had Swindon had their own heatleaders we'd love been beaten at home. I've a complete lack of confidence for Wednesday against a strong Coventry side

Think it's shown with tonight's sky meeting that Belle Vue got their required points early on and fell asleep, almost allowing King's Lynn back in to a point.

GRW123, look forward to seeing your defence of this sh!+

It has been confirmed by Marc Gent that a Stars top was issued but he refused to wear it. I'd guess it would have something to do with the fact the meeting was in Poland so he couldn't afford to cover his sponsors maybe? Cant blame him for that.

What was the price of ticket in £'s??

Just read the regulations for SWC and it is 100% based on nationality and not the licence

He represented GB last year at u21 level, what's the difference?

Although I still don't agree with the principles of this competition I'm proud of how we performed. Certainly didn't disgrace ourselves against sides that were supposed to be far superior. The only let down (not for the 1st time this season either) was Bjerre. A supposedly world class rider was horrendous. Completely lost any competitive bottle. Robert Lambert, genuine British star on the rise. Has to be in the World Cup. To go to Poland up against that class of rider for the 1st time was absolutely sensational

I believe the reserve rule is 2 years max anyway so these guys have to cut it or be thrown on the EL scrap heap.

Lambert has to be in GB team without fail. No excuse to leave him out now

Not impressed, in fact, totally embarrassing

There was just 1 racing line all night. Not quite FTG but certainly almost all races after lap 1 was follow the leader. Nick Morris and Robert Lambert were the only 2 to really provide anything that resembles racing.

Emil has withdrawn from the Vetlanda team. No idea on the replacement

Sh!+ meeting I thought. Crowd was very good again though. Very very impressed with Nick Morris Just to add, with our form tonight we'd have been beaten imo had Kildermand & Batchelor been available for Swindon

calm ya skinz ol' boy. Things move on, can't expect people to chuck on showaddywaddy just for your liking & exclude da yoovs speedway is so desperate to encourage

Does ride for Ostrovia in Poland but are all your home meetings Sunday's??? A 7.95 PL average he would be given

It seems Peterborough are between a rock and a hard place in replacing Allen. If a riders doesn't already have a PL average the Premier League can't bring in an EL rider who's EL average is over 6. Seems daft to me In the same token though, another Stars rider who could do with the extra racing (Nicklas Porsing) could be a decent replacement and is living over here so could make things a little easier???
