Just a random thought, if no racing is allowed or even tracks open for practice, just how dangerous could the 2021 season be with no riders having no competitive racing for 12 months. Even injured rider's get plenty of track time before returning, could 4 bloke at a time, off a bike for 12 months cause absolute carnage in 2021.

King's Lynn Stars 2020
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Yep, plenty thanks. My partner quit New Cross Wolverhampton due to bulls#!+ going on. There's a lot of very very bad practice & miss management going on in the NHS but nobody dare speak up except for trying to throw the government under a bus. Happy but not happy & upset to be the bad guy if you like. A few bullet points for you PPE being wasted for social media videos Gowns are an unnecessary shortage concern in the fight against Coronavirus Staff refusing to work Corona wards even though their own wards are empty Staff congregating from all wards every Thursday @8 & not adhereing to necessary social distancing 1000's of PPE in hospital storage that is out of date but safe in the protection against Coronavirus Departments refusing to share PPE with Corona wards although they're not busy or short of PPE Staff hoarding PPE from other staff That's a few. It's a horrible horrible place to be & staff are regularly being threatened with the sack by Matrons. For the record, my partner WAS involved in infection prevention & another ward killed her elderly, vulnerable auntie buy putting her, with dementia, a chest infection & renal faliure into a Corona riddled care home. So yes, this #ClapForCareers is absolutely bull$#!+ imo & I'm / we are fookin angry -

Pretty convenient Robert Lambert is "stranded in Poland" due to Coronavirus Oh my god, never saw that coming did we -
Lambert to comeback stronger.?
Daniel Smith replied to Sidney the robin's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The difference with Doyle is he wasn't established in the Ekstraliga. Had Doyle done the Ekstraliga at 21, been poor they would have dropped double quick and never to be seen again. He pretty much hit the ground running in the Ekstraliga and never looked back. Lambert is their earlier and has to perform or he gets left behind. History has shown how ruthless the Pole's are. If Lambert fails in the Ekstraliga in the next 2 seasons that's pretty much a top level career gone for him. -

For Lambert, he has to cut it in the Ekstraliga or he'll just become another one of those Brits where we end up saying "what a waste of a great talant." At his age, he's better than most other rider's around the world of the same age, except for the Pole's. Some say he has time on his side, thinking about it though, I'd now say the opposite. I think he has 2 years tops or the Ekstraliga won't ever touch him again & being in that league is absolutely critical in being able to finance any hope of cutting it at GP level. -
You say negative, I say being 100% realistic

I'm stund with the amount of Speedway fans in meltdown at the thought of 2020 not even happening. It is very very highly likely Speedway will not resume until 2021 minimum. Get used to it, wind ya necks in & get a sense of reality of what's going on around the world. -
Folk need to get used to the whole idea of 2020 being cancelled.

Was a massive fan of Lambert. I don't know but something may have happened between those 2 & wasn't to complimentary of Lambert during 2019. -

Daniel Smith replied to Sidney the robin's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Ues he can really kick on. In fact, this break in play will do every rider who's had operations & injuries over the winter & also those with long term injuries. I'd say, if this season (year) doesn't start at all which is currently predicted for most sports, we should see the 'fittest' set of rider's the sport has ever seen. This providing UK Speedway survives in it's current format after Covid-19. -

I genuinely believe this will kill British Speedway stone cold dead. As said, most attending are over 60 & have been going for their lifetime. Once the habits are broken the majority will not come back to Speedway. This virus may not kill as many of the elderly as first expected but it most certainly will kill this sport. -

Reading between the lines, did someone get, or very nearly injured by a BB driver & H&S has called the shots on the BB parking ban? It can surely be the only reasonable explanation for the BB ban inside the perimeter fence. Just maybe a court case is ongoing and an explanation cannot be given to protect the case? -

Absolutely, can see the floating speedway fans that usually go to the AFA swapping over to the Showground too. Fancy this Panthers side to win at the AFA if both team stay injury free. -

Everybody has access to podcast, Facebook, Twitter etc. To be on here you need access to the Internet. It's not the clubs fault but your personal choice to not venture to these other outlets that has information -
I hope it works well for both Crump & Ipswich but after a couple of months I feel Jason will remember why he retired in the first place

Not true, Crump has been on a bike quite regularly in Oz, was racing in their winter months (during the UK season). Has lost over stone in weight since xmas too. -

But you now can't read anythings from the Lynn News online without having to 'pay-per-article' or by a copy. Generally people only view the EDP if they're interested in Norwich City as it's actually quite poor for news on the King's Lynn area. As far as I'm concerned, social media and the clubs own website is the best way to get news out. -

No shock signings and nothing to get excited about with this team. 4 of the 7 shouldn't have been included -
Poole

Now Poole have gone I don't see what this ruling adds. Can't think of any team last season or before that that's made many changes for the sake of change. While it sounds like something, it's actually nothing.
