Zetters Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 GB and Denmark will going through for sure, BUT watch out for Poland who will have the Reading-specialist Janne Andersson in their mechanical/technical SIDE!! A lot of money They give Him to be there in their side, more multi more then Sweden should have give Him if They want Him in their side!!!!!!!!!!!!

DartfordHammer Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 Can't see anyone other than Great Britain and Denmark, although the US might push them a bit. Can't see Poland doing much at Smallmead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostie Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 (edited) oh well britpete you are a party pooper i thought this was a speedway forum all about thoughts opinions predictions and gut feelings. let the beer talk roll of your tongue you want to say team gb but dont wat to put the kiss of death on them is that correct Edited July 18, 2006 by ghostie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Private Dancer Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 (edited) I think that David Norris should be considered for Team GB as it was his own track over a long term in the 90`s. Anyone know what the full line ups will be? And don`t write off Poland to lightly either. Any team that has Tomasz Gollob, Jarek Hampel and Pepe Priotasiewicz in it is a serious threat. All three of those riders have riden smaller tracks before in the U.K (namely Ipswich). Edited July 19, 2006 by Private Dancer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcr Craig Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 After watching Sunday and Tuesdays meets I think is will be close on Thursday, with Team GB and Denmark reaching the final, I don't think the USA has the strength in depth and Poland are too hit and miss on the smaller tracks. COME ON TEAM GB!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Reported on the Yahoo speedway mailing list that Pepe is out of the meeting after a crash in Sweden on Monday. Replaced by Krzystof Kasprzak. Rico Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chivs Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 This meeting will be too close to call. There is the possibility that EVERY team could at some point have to use the joker system. I would love the GB team to qualify - but I have a sneaky feeling that the Danes will qualify and the Poles will sneak through. Dont underestimate the Poles - Hampel, Gollob and Pepe will be ok at Reading - and if they use Janusz as well they will be stronger than people think. Gating will be very important and thats where GB might be let down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottymelloty Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Anyone know what the draw is, i seem to think Poland are Red and GB are Blue but not 100% sure about other 2 teams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chivs Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 if its like the first semi scotty it should be denmark in white and USA in yellow. But speedway is never that simple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leanne1706 Posted July 19, 2006 Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 Denmark and Team GB to go through IMO. The Danes did fantastically last night after a not-so-good start (perhaps with the exception of Puk... seemed to be having an off night). And Team GB were so unlucky at the weekend. COME ON THE BRITS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
