Steve Irving Posted 13 hours ago Report Share Posted 13 hours ago 8 minutes ago, SteveLyric2 said: Maybe the new owners are trying to 'strongarm' a couple of GP riders to replace Emil and Doyley and want to get that sorted before any ownership announcement is made?! If it’s Mayfield Sports, then you’d put good money on at least one GP rider or ex GP rider being recruited. Not sure on two due to the lower points limit and Tom Brennan also likely being in the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rumour is Pete Adams and that he's bringing a couple of former Wolves riders with him to Ipswich. We shall see what happens over the next few weeks.

Fast Freddie would be good one of the few who's is on a par with Emil for excitement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two names I heard were Woffinden and Becker but I know the latter is doing 3 Leagues but I'm not sure on the Polish rule for riders who don't ride in the Polish top tier. Like you said, At least we're getting some rumours now which is better than the deafening silence that we've been getting so that's a positive sign.

Pee taking aside agreed he was an awesome rider super talented another one who had a bad crash that blunted the end of his career a bit. I can remember a world team cup at Coventry where it was a critical race and he was up against Hans Neilson , Sam gated and you could see Hans was faster but Sam held him off with brilliant trackcraft for all four laps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a fabulous Speedway rider he really was. It’s staggering to see such a drop off of top American talent compared to what we saw in the 80’s and 90’s. Penhall obviously, Sigalos, Shawn and Kelly Moran, Lance King, Sam Ermolenko, Boogaloo Schwartz, John Cook, Rick Miller, and then a little later came Hancock and Billy Hamill. America were a real powerhouse in World Speedway and then it suddenly seemed to all dry up for whatever reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
