Simon Stead and Oliver Allen.... Stand down?
eric i replied to eric i's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Nobody has ever cared about the European Pairs, look at the role of honour and past line ups...... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Pairs_Speedway_Championship , I don't blame riders for turning down the opportunity to travel to the arse end of Finland for a mickey mouse competition. -

Thats is what is wrong, it should be the riders that are most likely to score the most points. Charles wright would have been more likely than Brennen to score points. I think it cost us. -

According to a lot of the riders Wroclaw track is most similar to Belle Vue, Charles Wright has a higher average than Tom Brennen despite Brennen being at reserve. -
Their decision not to include riders in the GB squad because they didn't want to compete in lesser competitions has cost GB dearly IMO. We will never know what Charles Wright would have scored but any sane man would have put money on him scoring a point in the final. Such a poor decision would not have been made by the likes of Gary May, Stewart Dickson or Middleditch........time for a change.

Tom may well gain from this but his inclusion in the team was a mistake, there were better riders. -

Simon Stead and Oliver Allen have made poor choices, If we would have had C.Wright and C.Harris in the team we would have been lifting the trophy. -

With the league deadline likely to be extended, playoffs won't start until mid september, might we see this fixture on the 3rd september (day after cardiff GP). -

I am not sure about Brennan, he beat Lindback who had some problem with his bike and Klima who hadn't scored all night. -

I would put money on him scoring more than 4 yesterday. -

Everyone knows Harris would not score a hat full of points on Saturday but the question is, would he be more likely to score more than Ellis and Brennen. One point could be the difference between medals. -

Thats a poor excuse from Allen, nobody pays any attention to the other Mickey Mouse competitions. -

Stead has made some terrible decisions, should have had Charles Wright as an option. -

Harris is better option than either Brennen or Ellis IMO. -

Anyone hear anything about dates for the KOC fixtures?

So Chris Harris has 2 point higher average than Brennan in championship and 1.5 higher average in Premiership. He has wealth of experience and doesn't buckle under pressure. How can anyone justify Brennan being a better rider? OK neither rider is world class but Simon stead should be picking the current best riders. -
Have they seen forecast?, too early to water imo.

Great stuff on reaching the target but I guess the more money that's raised the more options they have when selecting a barrister.
-
So they move the dogs to the horse racecourse, kick the speedway out, leave the stadium to be vandalised and then get planning permission for housing(claiming using the stadium for sport is unviable).

It might be Kurtz rather than Chris Holder, Chris has been injured and has only had 4 meeting this year. Denmark's 5th rider will probably be Rasmus Jensen. Sweden probably, F.Lindgren, A.Lindback K.Nilsson (if fit) O.Berntzon J.Thorsell Germany K.Huckenbeck M.Smolinski E.Riss N. Bloedorn K. Wolbert?/M.Hartel -

I think that's the last we will see of Nick Morris this year, refusing a test will result in lengthy ban from the SCB.
