  1. Not on 7.8 average you;d be crazy to not take him.
  2. Fairly sure Ellis is screwed as far as an EL spot goes since no PL team gave him a spot this year. No EL team will take him on a 5.5 average.
  3. AFAIK Monmore Green is owned by Ladbrooks. I thought the council owned Poole Stadium. Don't know on the others.
  4. This question is do both Worrall's come in on half their converted PL average as both have spent time in the reserve berth or just Steve because he was the EDR?
  5. What do - Harris, Masters, Thorsell, Musielak, Clegg (ELD) come to?
  6. Jonsson, Kennett, Lawson, Nicholls, Nilsson. How does that do average wise? Get Bridger to get a PL average (12 meetings?) then sub him in as an ELDR, Poole would do it. 2. Davey Watt=5.40 Good riddance to that tripe don't bring him back
  7. It has an international Airport, which is about 15 miles South of the city. Driving to the airport from the South is fine, beyond that it all turns awful.
  8. If Lindgren stays with Lokomotiv Daugavpils as he has been with for the past 2 years in the Polish 2nd Division I don't believe he would be affected by any such ruling. However I can see him giving the BEL a break to concentrate on GP's again.
  9. Have you ever driven to Manchester from the South of England? Obviously not, it is less than 60 miles from where I live yet it always takes at least 2, more often 3 hours. The M6 & M56 are absolutely useless.
  10. Zagar, Cooke, Worralls & Jacobs. Who else fits? I assume Jacobs is an ELDR, Worralls will come in on their PL average halved.
  11. Having been there this evening, then watched it again on Sky. I can understand Cooke's frustration, Stevie Worrall could have done to Woffinden what Lindgren did to him when Woffinden was on a T/R, but he didn't. I can't comprehend why the track wasn't watered after heat 7, cashing in my "Grand Opening" disaster ticket or a seat in the Grand stand I didn't realise how dusty the track got. I hindsight I suspect that Cooke would have chopped the nose off PK in the heat after the Woffinden TR. Congrats to the Wolves on Winning the BEL. Anyone but Poole. If the motorway agency stop making the M6 barely passable, 3 hours from Wolverhampton to Manchester, is absurd I would get a season ticket for the NSS.
  12. Could someone create a 'sticky' for Swedish Elitserien & Polish Ekstraliga team building?
  13. I wouldn't suggest Belle Vue don't take heat advantages if they have them half way down the back straight on lap 1, Woffinden & Lindgren rode very smart Monday, they didn't go all out trying to win heats when they had a heat advantage or a 3-3 in bag, after Belle Vue's disastrous heats 3 & 4. Ace's need to do the same Wednesday, if they can start with 3 5-1's take it just don't ride stupid trying to get a 5-1 when you have a 4-2.
  14. Ace's need to keep it tight until heat 10, then 5-1 Wolves 3 times in the following 3 heats. Hence no TR. Will be heading to Manchester about 15:30, parking and then getting food. Any suggestions appreciated.
  15. Just watched recording, out on a Monday night, Fricke & Richie Worrall hang your heads in shame, dreadful stuff. I didn't expect anymore from Zagar, typical Eastern European GP star at Monmore, gate & gone or nothing. The fact is that had Woffinden & Lindgren not spent most of the meeting team riding the advantage Wolves take to the NSS tomorrow could have been much more. Who said Nicholls was dynamite at Monmore? Fair play to Howarth his scores have for me been disappointing most of this year but he has come up with a few crucial rides when it mattered
  16. I haven't watched the first leg as yet, although I know the score, due to stupid Facebook. Still coming tomorrow for the 2nd leg. Anywhere nearby the NSS with decent food?
  17. Have team building rules for next years Elitserien been decided yet?
  18. If Lebedevs can get a regular Ekstraliga ride I'd be surprised.
  19. This years stats can be found here: http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Elitserien2016/Rankinglista/ http://speedwayekstraliga.pl/statystyki/lista-klasyfikacyjna/lista-klasyfikacyjna-2016/ Fair play to Bartosz Zmarzlik for topping both. http://www.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Allsvenskan2016/Rankinglista/ http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/i-liga/statystyki/2016
  20. I don't really think Lindgren had much choice as Lindback was roaring inside him, he just took avoiding action. I doubt most riders have any kind of relationship off track. They can ride with each other Monday in Britain, against each other Tuesday in Sweden, together in Britain on Thursday, against each other in FIM events Saturday and with each other Sunday in Poland. Only the Monster Energy sponsored riders (& Doyle) and the Polish riders seem to have any empathy for each other off track.
  21. Just watched this after Facebook doing that annoying live thing they have started doing spoiled the fact I knew Zmarzlik & Hancock made the final. Entire evening soured by the fact that the rider that most deserves to be World Champion this year probably won't be due to injury. And I'm not Doyle fan. Lindgren was at fault for the crash not Harris. Glad Iversen won. He's been my favourite GP rider in recent years, that should mean he will get a spot next year. Another good night for Zagar. Are they relying on a Wild Card or can both overhaul the atrocious Janowski & Lindback in Australia? I used to be of the opinion that the older riders started the season in better form than the youngsters but the youngsters come good at the end. This year is different with Zagar & Iversen finally coming to the party as Janowski fades. If they do overhaul him in Australia I will be surprised if Janowski get a Permanent Wild Card spot. Hampel surely deserves a spot after his year out with injury. Zmarzlik, Dudek & Pawlicki are in. For sure. Do the GP's need another Pole in Janowski who was overtaken by the pretty useless Harris this evening? May open the door for another Dane. Pedersen, I hope not Bjerre. MJJ was god tonight. Or will it save Lindback who has been useless since the SWC. Can Woffinden hold off Zmarzlik & Holder for bronze? Or Silver, if Doyle can't ride.
  22. How many points do you think Nicholls can take off Woffinden & Lindgren? There's 25 points at last for Wolves without considering PK, Masters & Thorsell who are no slouches. I doubt Zagar would list Monmore as one of the tracks he enjoys visiting.
