FIM events on a Saturday plus Poland will be having a few meetings on Fridays and Saturdays next season so Max Fricke may miss a few and the visitors may have a rider missing. As for WOLVES 2019 there seems to be a link to Nick Morris switching to Monmore Green to get himself back on form and as he is with Rezszow on a Sunday it would be great to have Luke Becker travel to England with him. Nick on 6,74 is a bargain and Luke on possibly a 5.00 is a prospect America have been waiting for and Monmore would be a good start to his career in Britain. Kyle Howarth 5.16 would be good to have back at number two and hopefully Luke starting at six alongside a 2.00 draft or Drew Kemp who I'm sure everyone Will want just like Leon Flint. Sam Masters and Jacob Thorssell will be in the Swedish top league so Thursday night may be a clash a few times but hopefully fixtures can be sorted to avoid these while Rory Schlein may not be riding abroad but if it's two leagues will he still be at Ipswich. Hopefully it's one league and two from Sam, Rory and Jacob return unless they can persuade Piotr Pawlicki to have another year here as he has been up and down in the last two seasons partly due to injuries but may opt for a season here to get back on track with extra meetings. 1 Masters or Pawlicki 8.11 / 8.00 2 Kyle Howarth 5.16 3 4 Nick Morris 6.74 5 Thorssell or Schlein 7.25 / 8.00 6 Luke Becker 5.00 7 Drew Kemp or 2.00 If it remains as is then Schlein or Pawlicki could fit in at 3 but if it's one league at Championship level Becker would be up at 3 and someone like Ash Morris or Nathan Greaves at six. Only speculation but a decent line ups either league and potential in both

Usually like team suits and agree it's a uniform that should be worn but it does take you back when they all look different but have a traditional race jacket on. Maurer in his green check, With in green, PC in his flames etc I'm now 50/50 on it. I will add though that we need to be helping the British Kevlar makers out. In Poland riders can only wear Kevlar made by a Polish company and most suits here are made by Polish company by riders arranging them to be made by design from the team. Why can't Britain help the ravesuit makers here like GTS Colin White DSTAR etc and suits worn here have to be British made

Have to say it never felt like the usual Olympique and stopped looking at scores after heat 8 and after chatting to a few people suddenly realised it was the final which I think is the first time it has had a final to decide the winner. Lost quite a bit being 15 heats and a final and even with Tom Perry (local), Kyle Bickley (Cradley and NGK Sponsored) and two Brummies or Cradley riders would have been more interesting. As for the racing, most passed were past the Pole who isn't a prospect for British teams any way and mistakes by riders including Sam Masters who wrecked his night almost doing a 360 on bend two and a number of riders seemed to be struggling at times. Howarth looked to have the final won but Nick Morris who looked good messed up turn one and Bomber made the gate in the rerun. Didn't have the interest of previous Olympique meetings and the format wasn't a winner.

Tim Lovejoy has been a fan for years but doesn't get to too many being based in London and busy weekends. Helen Chamberlain was his co host on Soccer Am years ago and the two once presented the league title. Big friends of Tai the Lowe's brothers from Superbikes love speedway and Rossi was challenged to try Speedway as he often watched it and think there was plans for Monster to get riders from different sports to try others two wheels for charity. A few of the Coronation Street cast have visited Belle Vue a few times and

Tomas Gollob Benefit Meeting
T.N.T. replied to Clive Ward's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
It wasn't a meeting to entertain but to raise funds for his medical bills and treatment at a club owned by The Gollob family who took on the stadium after the previous owner ran it dry. The long term plan was for Tomasz to take over once he retired and build the club up again but that was put on hold once he sustained his injuries but it will be back. As for this meeting it was bitterly cold and even a few big names.packed up early and the unfortunate crash with Iversen caused a delay but a good turn out helped the finances out and let's face it the prices were very cheap -
What's the best race you ve seen live

Harris at Cardiff 2017 Max v Sullivan at Peterborough Max v Andersen at Monmore Green Nielsen v Jessup at Birmingham Lindgren v Doyle at Warsaw Rempala at Poole Ermolenko and Correy many times Emil many times Woffinden many times Lindgren many times -
Do we know the points limit ? Is Ricky Wells still an asset now ? One rider that is and could possibly do with a year here after a year of brilliance or nothing is Piotr Pawlicki who would be a great signing for Wolves and British Speedway in general. Jacob is on a modest average and if Kyle is available he too is on a low average. Hopefully Luke Becker joining rather than going to Poole would also be a good signing. Morris or Greaves but only one of them and see what the limit is

Since then it looks doubtful as it may be broken and he can't really avoid finishing bottom of the fifteen so why risk it

Torun SPARE TICKETS
T.N.T. replied to INCOGNITO's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Same here but will look to the touts as usual as they have loads they get early on -
4.15 so NO Looking back they should have replaced Worrall when he was injured and Drzodz hasn't done much and nearly 12 points in averages early on could have been better with Erik Riss and Jason Garrity as one would have been at reserve now with Riss and a decent 1-7 Too late now as the top four look secure in Somerset Kings Lynn Poole and Swindon as Wolves and Aces can't get much on their travels

Pawlicki is 8,00 and Woffinden didn't turn us down as he had Sweden sorted despite leaving one club Not a great signing but at least it keeps Morris at reserve and he comes in trying to prove something and Heeps was doing nothing forward and only decent score was against lower ranked reserves. Shame they didn't look towards Pawlicki Bjerre or Kildemand to give more top end power away or even look at The Etheridge as Wolves still have to go to Belle Vue where he could have been a trump card. Would have been Strange that Aces could replace Etheridge with Riss and we replace the rider that replaced Riss with Etheridge. Five away meetings left and a win needed in two but looking at the tracks we have to go to can't see anything more than two points if lucky
