Dudek was awful, Piotr Pawlicki somehow managed to be worse. Janowski is about the only Malila rider who did himself justice. Eriksson was Ok. Berntzon really let himself down with the exclusion. Except for Woetin all the Smederna riders all had decent night's but could have been better. Can't see Dackarna winning by 18 points tomorrow. Same septet's tomorrow?

Cardiff 2019 Saturday September 21st

On one hand that's good in that it could attract more youngsters one the other hand the route to Cardiff is also the route to allot of UK holiday destinations. The M5 also goes to Cornwall & Devon. Also the hotels will be more expensive! Not so good for speedway fans who don't have children of school age. -
You'll be fine with a credit/debit card anywhere in Poland. Can't see Dudek getting a wildcard if he slips outside the top 8. I'm sure they'd rather give a Polish wildcard to one of Drabik or Smektala to freshen things up.

The racing wasn't great on Saturday. It has been a few years since I've been to a Cardiff GP (2008 I think) but it seemed to me that it was done more on a budget than previously, but perhaps I've been spoiled by the slickness of Poland in recent years. The date for next year looks an absolute nightmare, right at the start of the School Holidays. -

Unfortunately while I was driving to work about 7:15 that morning Alan Brazil referred to him as World Superbike Champion. -
Allot depends on the team building limits, but I'm sure there will be more in demand riders than Ellis & Aarnio. How is Morris' recovery going, will he even be fit?
-
Understood. Holsted look the strongest team, but admittedly some of those names are lost on me.
-
How come Fjelsted only have 5 riders?
-
Aarnio rode for Scunthorpe in 2017 according to the averages on the BSPA site.
-
Hahaha. So funny. It's the BSPA, for whatever reason they try not to tell supporters anything.
-
Fair enough on Aarnio, you have to hope his parent club deem him surplus to requirements.
-
Kurtz & Holder probably outscored Iversen who didn't win a race. Harris was all over Klindt when the chain snapped, any kind of mistake by Klindt could have seen Harris pass. Richie Hawkins contributed more to the margin of victory than anyone other than Grajczonek.
-
Guess it depends what other offers he may get.
-
Danyom Hume is worth a punt at reserve on 3.27 IMO. Bit erratic bit but certainly quick.
-
Snooze fest. Gate & stay on the white line. Couple of sleeping fuzz entering turn one. Awful.
-
Why so keen on Aarnio? Newman is another on a similar average to Morris, Castagna & Shanes (5.00-5.50).
-
What average would Luke Becker be assessed with? I haven't seen Tobias Thomsen ride, but I certainly don't think Nick Agertoft is worth a place in the team on 4.00 average. Morris, Castagna & Shanes all have similar averages so it would be difficult to fit them all in with one at reserve (5:00-5:50). Ashley Morris was injured by the time I was able to start attending but of the two I have seen I'd much prefer to watch James Shanes on a weekly basis than Paco Castagna. That said I think if Castagna could be fitted in at #2 he'd do a decent job there as he doesn't like to leave the curb and #2's meeting finishes earlier. Wide dirt lines do take a while to develop.
