Born 21.09.09

Made his debut for Bydgoszcz last week beating Lebedevs and Vaculik in his paid 11.

Watched the match last week he was brilliant  .Past both Lebedevs and Vaculik.Very aware of what’s going on the the races for being so young.

Yep I'd go Cairns & Rushen for next time and stick with them while they are eligible. Presume its a SWC event next year rather than SoN?

And what if someone better than Cairns & Rushden comes along in two years time?

And he did it by passing them too not just gating over them 

But couldn't get near Thomsen in his next ride & failed to score in his final ride.

Not many got near Thompson to be fair.It put some of his Teammates to shame. IMO

Bewley showed him how to ride on his own muck heap

Did you actually watch? GB had a plan with Lambert on the inside and Bewely on the outside every time, worked well.

RUSHEN for crying out loud.

If somebody does then brilliant, a nice problem to have.

Do the three Danes not get on? At this autograph session in the fan zone all the teams are sat together except the Danes.  Madsen is with Latvia, Michelsen is with Aussies & MJJ is with Sweden.

Yep I watched and it wouldn’t have hurt them to switch from inner to outer like the Aussies did

Nicky will pull them together,.... but will have to be his way.  🤪

They are not bad riders,they were just outclassed.Speedway in Europe is a different ballgame to GB at that level.

They are good young riders at the level whats is requered in the UK. People forget the likes of Rushen and Cairns have got the same experience as the foreign lads. Those boys have have been racing each other all around Europe for a couple of seasons, So it will be interesting to see how they perform against their foreign counterparts. Regarding Killeen and Harrison, i don't know what experience they have when it comes to racing abroad. It just shows though the days of a British u21 world champions have long gone. Cox, Havelock, Louis, Screen and Richardson. The closest we have since them boys was Bomber back in 2003!

Again another poor crowd especially for a final

Let’s hope there’s not poor racing then

@IainB I have created a Kelvin Tatum list of phrases for you tonight to check off.

Jet propelled

Working overtime

Repays the compliment

No doubt about that

Umm Ehhhh

No question about that

Starting is at a premium

Each phrase is worth 5 points and each mistake Kelvin makes is worth 10 points. If Louis corrects his mistake you get a bonus 25 points added on to your original 10. 
 

Best of luck.

7 teams and only 6 benches, typical speedway!

Thanks 👍🏻 

But I'll work my own system though, I'll just go for 1 point anytime Tatum or Louis say "I tell you what"... think I'll win 🏆

Awful. We're here and 20min? s to go, about 1/10th full. I thought this was the pinnacle place of speedway? Foxhall would have a bigger crowd!

It will Leicester v Ipswich

[ShanoXtra]

Don’t know why people keep going on about the crowd 😂 I wasn’t joking when I said Poland aren’t bothered about SWC or SoN! Probably not that many watching on TV either! They go wild for their club and SGP is the only real individual meeting they watch! They don’t even really follow Polish Ind. Championship or SEC.

Lambert finished on the podium a couple of times didn't he?  Behind Drabik & Smektala.

Why stage it then?
