iris123 Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Interesting that a lot of people are seeing Olsen behind the decision to swap Iversen for Andersen.Just a thought,but seeing as Nicki,Bjarne and Puk all ride for Holsted and Holsted seem to host most of the top meetings now in Denmark,maybe its the man in power there that has the big say in things.Wonder if there has ever been a team that has had all the "top" riders from one country.Remember Gorzow with Plech and Jancarz,but 3 riders.

IMO PUK is not even close to be in the top 3 in Denmark. Hans A. is a far better rider, but I think he has been critizing the GP-circus to much. Had KB not had his injury, I really think he would have been in instead of PUK, now Hans A was not getting the WC. I just wondered why they did not choose Gjedde instead of PUK. Hmmmmmm. Maybe you are right about what you are saying regarding Holsted and a strong leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also worries me a bit that Holsted have the 3 GP riders.Can't be good for Danish league speedway.

In fact the 3 riders did ride at Holsted last year as well, and that did not give them the championship. But you are right. The qualification rounds will give the best riders of the days a chance to get into the GP-circus. As it is now, it is just very much politics and buisiness, and very little sport.

iris123 Posted November 8, 2005 Report Share Posted November 8, 2005 In fact the 3 riders did ride at Holsted last year as well, and that did not give them the championship. No,but look what happened to Fredericia in taking the title.To challenge Holsted you either overstrech your funds or like Outrup maybe hardly make an effort to run a competetive team but stay within budget. Similar thing happened here with Parchim.Ran out of money part way through the season and fielded a very weak side in the last quali round,even though they still had a good chance of going through to the final Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barrow boy Posted November 20, 2005 Report Share Posted November 20, 2005 So, in short, what Hans is saying is:In 2003, I failed to qualify for the 2004 series, but got seeded back in. In 2004, I failed to qualify for the 2005 series, but again got seeded back in. In 2005, I failed to qualify for the 2006 series, but this time they didn't let me back in. I wonder why. Er... surely he's had enough chances now. All the best Rob <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It doesn't matter how many chances he's had the simple point is that if Lee Richardson gets in then everyone who finished in front of him should be invited also.
