  1. Poole sticking to their ethos of British rider's are s#!+€ still then I guess??
  2. No rider's should be made to ride where they don't want to be. Already puts said rider's attitude on the back foot, no good for team.
  3. Ulrich has tweeted: So I'd take that as ruled out of 2019 plans
  4. So it's clear as mud now, Buster fully in control. None of this business as usual nonsense that Louis said. Buster holds the purse strings so he rightly has to have the final say on who comes in and how much for. I don't think the way he works will sit to well with the original Ipswich management.
  5. Nick Morris is an Australian international. His allegiances have been assigned and can no longer qualify as a duel national.
  6. Of course he hasn't, but he doesn't treat fans of clubs the correct way. If these fans walk away he'll financially be in the cow poop. Peterborough and Ipswich fans may flock to the first couple of meetings but if things ain't as the fans like they'll be no more. It's how it is, Speedway needs to start delivering on Value For Money.
  7. Weak as f. 1 heatleader, 3 2nd string, 3 reserves. Must have 2 heatleaders in a team minimum.
  8. I think you're getting upset for being ripped to pieces. What you're suggesting IS blackmail and comes under the bracket of modern slavery. When such conditions like yours are put in place at the expiration of a contract, it is blackmail. Those same conditions comes under the modern slavery act for being forced to work against your will. Being forced to ride for the same team even though you don't want to be there is illegal. It's also illegal to suggest that if a contract isn't signed a rider should be suspended while out of contracted employment. Stop getting defensive and draw a line in the sand, that what you suggest isn't possible and move on.
  9. So which bit of "you sign this contract or you're banned for a year" is not blackmailing??
  10. There already is a window until 1st January. But rider's cannot legally be forced into contracts they don't want, that's totally against slavery laws. It should always remain rider choice where they want to be. If rider's want to move on because of better pay or they feel more wanted then so be it. If Morris is offered £100 per point and Poole offer £200 why shouldn't he be allowed to move?? If there's companies out there offering you better wages you move on, it's as simple as that to be honest.
  11. That's the thing, the rules are there to cut doubling up but they've been ignored and just continued with using existing Championship averages. Don't understand why you'd create such a conversion rate, which increases year on year but allow rider's to maintain existing averages, it just doesn't make any sense at all.
  12. Not only the team you'll need to worry about, admission prices will shock a few away also
  13. So now it's basically a track reshape and that's it??
  14. There does have to be question marks on a new stadium. The greyhound fixtures are currently running right up to the 23rd February. Absolutely no way will any stadium amendments be made. At best, a reshaped track. There must still be concerns of the Robins of coming to tapes in 2019 at all?
  15. If he is 5.27 he'll still fit within the points limit.
  16. Foreign rider's can't be less than 4.00. A huge risk to take and would throw away 0.65 team building points compared to his Championship converted average. Stefan is the better option for me.
  17. Good start to team building for the Robins. If Doyle, Musielak and Morris are your top 3 it's strong and not so expensive in averages. 1. J.Doyle 9.80 2. B.Wilson-Dean 5.14 3. T.Musielak 6.52 4. A.Ellis 6.26 5. N.Morris 6.60 6. Z.Wajtknecht 4.26 7. Stefan Nielsen 3.68 Ave: 42.26 Stefen Nielsen's average will be Championship converted due to not enough 2018 Premiership meetings. I think that above will be plenty strong enough to challenge for the Premiership Title.
  18. Peeps, we are NOT customer's, we are supporters/fans of clubs. It's offensive to be described as "customers". We as supporters are worth so much more than a usual company customer. We as supporters dedicate ourselves to the badge far more than companies as we chop and change to gain the best for ourselves. Speedway Promoters do not respect their supporters and are treating them as customers. This is where the problem is, we are treated with no right's on how things are run, just expected to turn up and accept everything on offer. Speedway fans ARE NOT CUSTOMERS
  19. They have learnt from their mistakes. Rightly so, these young reserves are at Championship level rather than a couple of seasons ago at Premiership level.
  20. Becker has plenty of tight track experience in the US so a week or 2 and he'll be fine at Monmore. In a tough Polish 2nd tier he showed the potential he has on the bigger tracks. Personally, he could easily match his assessed average and no doubt come with excellent equipment.
  21. He might not have a choice if he wants to ride over here and the other 4 clubs are uninterested.
  22. So Charles Wright is your man then. Last season Somerset: 6.44 H - 4.85 A Leicester: 6.33 H - 4.64 A Your perfect candidate Foreverblue
