Poole Pirates Vs Leicester Lions 21/6/17
Col replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Chris Holders pathetic efforts for Kings Lynn will surely mean you get a rejuvenated #1 on a pathetic average next year, Ellis is performing similarly rubbish for Swindon. Hes another shoe-in. How do you Poole fans sleep at night? -
Kings Lynn Stars V Belle Vue Aces 21/06/17
Col replied to semion's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Well done Aces on an unexpected away win. Gutted for the Stars, who clearly need to get rid of a few riders and draft in replacements before it is to late if it is not already. Can Stars retain Huckenbeck, Batchelor & Lambert while bringing in Andžejs Ļebedevs & Václav Milík? Holder is under performing and needs to go, despite the rider he was 5 years ago. Stars need to be ruthless. -
I hate posting in Wolves threads for fear of a SB's response. But how long is Riss likely to be out?
-
Are you a massive Holder fan by any chance? :)

Poole Pirates Vs Leicester Lions 21/6/17

Should read... Morris has surprised everyone with their performances to date. -
Joining Poole on a minus -1.50 average. You heard it here first folks.

Leicester Lions V Belle Vue Aces 17 Jun 2017
Col replied to Robbobee's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The points scored by the two R/R's made the difference, credit Lemon for getting the most out of the facility. -
Good win for Rebels, glad changes have worked out. Bjerre, Worrall & Fricke must be gutted by the performance of their peers.
-
From reading the updates, it sounds like a great meeting. Glad Harris has found some form, finally. But glad Stars got back to winning ways.
-
With the two teams they signed that is pretty much the result I would have expected TBH, had hoped for more from Ellis, alas. At least Holder finally turned up for the Stars. I hope this away win kick starts their season.

Warsaw Gp 13th May 2017
Col replied to james1234's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Was at the Gorzow GP last year which was fabulous, was there when Bomber won in Cardiff which was fantastic but this was better in terms of excitement. Lindgren is riding like a man possessed in a good way, fair play to him. Such a clever turn back in the final and such a great race with Doyle earlier in the meeting. Shame he is a Wolf! Pedersen maybe the new Harris in terms of scoring but he is still capable of being an utter danger to riders he can out gate which is something Harris was never capable of. -
I thought Gomolski would need time. If given it, I thought he may have topped the averages for the Lions this year. He is also an entertainer (from what I've seen of him in Sweden via the TV). When Lebedevs was ditched before the season, I was disappointed for Leicester fans in terms of entertainment, but understood it. King & Bates are solid EL performers. If Garrity secures more points than Gomolski would, fair enough. And I'm glad to see a young Brit get a Premiership ride. But it diminishes the Lions as a potential force. And I hope it doesn't mean Gomolski won't be seen the the British League again.

Belle Vue V Somerset - 1/5/17 , 12pm
Col replied to WestGorton1884's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Why midday start? I've got to Stockport to watch Sale Sharks on a Friday in an hour leaving Wolverhampton City centre at about 18:15 a fair few years ago. The conversion of the M6 to SmartMotorways made my journeys to the NSS last year almost 3 hours, which is ridiculous. Local Somerset fans will have at least an hours drive up the M5 before joining the M6 in middle Black Country. I hope the leave early. I could have been tempted to visit for a 14:00 start time but hey ho. -
Somerset Rebels Vs Kings Lynn Stars : 28th April.
Col replied to g13webb's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Tungate has always been pretty hit & miss, odd choice for a #1 but I guess averages dictated. -
Belle Vue V Leicester 21/4/17 7.30pm
Col replied to stevethelion's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
That is a massive wake-up call for Belle Vue, but they dropped no points. 3 5-1's to finish the meeting for maximum points is good going. At least for the Lions Gomolski finally got his act together. -
I knew the seven selected wouldn't be title contenders when it was announced, in all fairness Howarth who was my wasn't my biggest doubt before Skornicki who hadn't ridden a bike for two years has been doing fine, Wolves reserves have been pitiful as expected. If Wolves can share the Skornicki points between a useful second string & a reasonable reserve moving Howarth to 4. You may save your season.
-
Well I figured Skornicki was a mistake and Clegg wouldn't be any good as a #6. I have been proved correct.

King's Lynn V Belle Vue - 19 April 2017
Col replied to Mimmo's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
This result surprised me, thought Kings Lynn would be solid at home. Secret Poole Agent Holder obviously doesn't help. But Lambert, Batchelor & Huckenbeck should have got them through this without Cooke scoring a max . -
Swindon V Poole 16/4/17 5 Pm
Col replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Secret agent Ellis successfully dispatched. -
Another crappy Waggy tail performance from Wolves reserves as expected.
-
Lindgren will be a tough guy to beat, but that Wolves tail will wag, wag & wag. Belle Vue by 8, including a Lindgren 6 pointer.

Somerset's heat leader strength is going to be an issue all year but the 4 riders below them are solid and can be match winners if they have a good night. Solid start to the home fixtures, but tougher tests to come. At least Gomolski found some form for Leiceter. Bates, King & Nilsson did their job. R/R & guests, meh!
