screm Posted 12 hours ago Report Share Posted 12 hours ago Signing 3 VICTOR IS A BANDIT! Stewart Dickson has secured the signature of talented Swedish superstar Victor Palovaara for the 2026 season! Victor made a successful comeback to UK racing in 2025 and was a prolific scorer for the Edinburgh Monarchs throughout the season. The fast gating Swede joins Peter Kildemand and Nick Morris to form a substantial heat leader trio for the Bandits in 2026. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I suspect Oxford make more sense with the Latvia ride but I do hope im wrong. I’m unsure of who could fill that void unless it’s someone who isn’t currently in the championship. Batch if he does not re - sign for worky ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't say that forms a substantial heat leader trio 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are happy we’ve got speedway and who cares about the outcome. There is no craving for success despite the distinct lack of it especially the fact we haven’t made the play offs in over a decade. So why bother trying to compete with Poole or Glasgow or anyone else for that matter? I absolutely wouldn’t blame the promotion for having that viewpoint if this is the fan feedback. And in one post you have encapsulated the sentiment of one family. My dad, his two sons( I’m one) his four grandchildren. We have an evening together. Cheap burgers and chips. The smell the sound. The joy or disappointment win or loose we go and enjoy ourselves. Entertainment and a place to be together matters. winning would be nice but the sport we all connect though matters more. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamster00 Posted 11 hours ago Report Share Posted 11 hours ago I’m fairly confident no Poole fans will be on this thread saying we should be favourites for anything. Disappointing signing, Edinburgh got the best of him last season bringing him in on a low average. If my maths is correct he averaged 5.91 after moving to number one last season so is on an inflated average due to his fantastic form whilst riding at reserve. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also enjoy it, it gives me a great time to catch up with friends and we as a group make every away trip we can. I’d also like to see my team actually compete for a trophy for once though and that’s where I think we disagree. It gets a bit tiresome hearing the old lines such as “Just be happy you have speedway” etc just because myself and others would like to see on track success for the first time in a long time. The two things don’t have to be mutually exclusive, I think Poole fans and Glasgow fans alike also have similar bonding stories, they also get to see a winning product on the track too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be most likely put at 3 I would of thought as Morris is a better rider that this level,if he gets ht12 instead of ht13 there’s no reason why he can’t hit his 7.35 average at all,I’m guessing this means no kemp now but I can’t see how he rides at Oxford unless him and Rowe have buried the hatchet now.

Didn't see that coming especially with people saying this season that Edinburgh riders wouldn't guest at Berwick as they didn't like the track (except Grahn).

Only team in that league that would sign Palovaara on that average is Berwick. Says it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
