Fortythirtyeight Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 Even though you wrote it twice…..you couldn’t be more wrong. I’ve attended as many NDL meetings as Championship and been to Mildenhall many times and always enjoyed it. I just have an opinion you obviously disagree with.😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ONTWOMINUTES Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Not easy to answer is it deano , as many will say there's lots of uk riders wanting a team place , on the other hand the pole will most probably have an ancestor that qualifies him to be included. Thats the way speedway is run here. Equal opportunities etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Equal opportunities etc. personally I don’t have a problem with it, we have a rider shortage crisis right across the board and the more riders that want to ride the better, the litmus test for me is if the people who pay to watch it want it then it’s ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s get things in perspective, he’s been around British amateur meetings for quite a few years, rode in a few second halfs and would struggle to hold down a NDL team place so let’s not call in Trumps ICE army just yet. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Technik Posted Saturday at 05:11 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 05:11 AM Over the years many Poles have moved to the UK through the EC agreement & some that have made the UK their home have stayed on after Brexit. With Speedway being such a massive sport in their homeland it was inevitable that there would be some that have that interest & after becoming Citizens of the UK will be eligable for a UK passport 7 inturn to compete in NDL.

There isn’t one but some parents and their siblings seem to feel they are being put out of a team spot because of a foreign rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neila Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Could the said pole have been a resident in the UK for several years, he may also have resendency due to being over here many years. Not sure how this affects the so called rules of speedway. BTW a young kid in the U16 meetings is the son of a pole, but born in the UK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
