	At Newport he started well then after about six meetings just looked absolutely terrible.... trailing miles behind . No idea what went wrong, undoubtedly a talented rider though
 - 
	Wow a few good performances. Fact is hes a second string at best and has never been one of the leagues top riders - ever
 - 
	Think he will do well to hit his starting average tbh
 - 
	When was Katajisto one of the top PL riders? I remember him averaging about 7 from reserve, thats about it!
 - 
	Shocking side Lemons a terrible signing
 - 
	Awful side. Whoever snaps up Mellgren will get a cracking signing. Ryes team has one heatleader from where I am standing.
 - 
	What makes Lindgren any more deserving of a wild card? Didnt do qualifiers and failed to make top 8. Hes a very average rider when you take away the GB league, MJJ a fresh up coming talent, has won gps before, won world under 21 titles, been part of world cup winning teams, he should of been given a wild card instead of yet another for Lindgren.
 - 
	Point is harris should never of been in the gp challenge final after being knocked out ages before it took place.
 - 
	I read little into racing on tracks they know at gp level.... How many times do you hear that their riding on tracks they know well yet never perform?? Mjj would be a fine addition to the series hes proven he can win gps , put in top performances in the swc and is higher than lindgren in sweden and poland
 - 
	Lindgren is a pathetic choice. Only once in his gp career has he made the final eight. Another wild card, seriously? Shocking. As dull as dishwater and was way down the pecking order in the Poland and Sweden averages with exciting young talent like Dudek and MJJ above him. Hes decent enough in the UK but apart from that is medicore at best on the continent. Jonsson I can kind of understand, he missed a few rounds few injury. It was only two years ago he was world number 2. A very exciting rider and is still world class in the leagues. Last chance saloon for him I would say, I can accept his wild card. Gollob deserves his, as much as he was not interested at times hes been one of the top riders in the world for well over a decade and is exciting as well. If he doesnt make the top 8 this season then I would say goodbye though. Holder is an obvious choice. Disgusted that Lindgren got another selection. Should of gone to MJJ. He is higher in the top two leagues in world speedway, IMO is more exciting, is younger, more potential and has impressed in his wild card showings, even winning one. So what if it was his home GP, despite being WC three times Nicki P still hasnt one a Danish GP in his career. Home GPS mean sod all.

	Yeah but a young rider on the up, id have him down as an improver next season Maybe the job hes been offered is megabucks and simply too good to turn down, however its a shame to see a great talent packing in if indeed its true
 - 
	Have to wonder how on earth a young rider like dyer who has racked up many points this season is losing money!!!

Pinny replied to Mr Blobby's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Still not the same without both sides being strong as possible? Ringwood going home with fixtures still left to run is farcial and wheres glasgows dane? Edinburgh have nearly all pl riders to chose from and the best they can get is risager? A second string? Yeah right -

Pinny replied to Mr Blobby's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
What is the point in this meeting, neither sides giving a toss about their line ups. Morten risager guesting for cook? What a joke - 
	Id put mjj and thj in Mjj won a gp already as wild card and was decent in his other gp Thj always impressive as wild card Please no lindgren he is the new harris Jonssons a rider i like but on the way down now Holder mjj thj and gollob for me
 - 
	What has happened to Bach, seemed destined for the top a few years ago but his workington scores havent been too clever, well away from home anyway.

To be perfectly honest, Bech has taken the piss out of uk speedway this season He seems to be missing more than he is present! -

Is he related to Phillipe by any chance? Seem to remember him being a class act - 
	
	
				Somerset V Rye House Ko Cup Final 27/9
Pinny replied to coomie's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Old timer is right though... Two of your top four missing for a play off meet? Its farcial. People wonder why fans are being driven away at an alarming rate and one of the main reasons is the fact that riders are missing all the time. I personally would like to see one month designated to all FIM events except the GPS... All these under 21 meetings during the season play havoc with fixture lists and rider line ups in both leagues. Its not fair to expect someone to pay full price admission to not see their full strength time and no matter whats said its a main reason for dwindling crowds. - 
	
	
				Is It Time For Redcar To Dispense Of Matej Kus.
Pinny replied to mikebaker's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Judgin on his performances on the whole, yep. His best days were hitting 10.5 for reading about five years ago , if he ever gets near that figure again ill eat my work boots -

Ostergaards best days are well behind him - 
	What are their respective 2013 alone figures? By that i dont mean rolling averages
 - 
	Depends on both riders potential I see a lot more in lindgren than tully but i dont watch them each week
 - 
	Team riding means little these days the two best riders i saw put on a wasps bib watson and gjedde certainly didnt team ride and ifthey did it was very rare it didnt do them any harm
 - 
	Spot on... Personally think theres more to come from lindgren. Tullys been a 7 pointer for years now
