Pollyanna Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Hmm...reckon it'll be Peterborough winning it. Lakeside have a good shout too and I'd almost go for Eastie or Poole for 3rd. Where's it to this year? As Troy Batchelor is an ex-KL rider, think Swindon could also be in with a shout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EL Pairs What are things coming to when a PL pair has to be put in to make the numbers up! I don't care how good they are around their home track, or the fact that it's probably designed to pull in a few home fans to make the crowd up , it's ridiculous.

I don't care how good they are around their home track, or the fact that it's probably designed to pull in a few home fans to make the crowd up , it's ridiculous. My thoughts exactly. I think the wildcard pairing should be the next top scoring second strings in the EL however weaker they maybe than the top pairing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Or failing that change the format so it caters for 9 pairs instead of 10 I think Nermark and Niemenen will do fairly well but its not ideal having a PL team competing in an EL event.

Shortcrust Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Reading through last night's programme, JC mentioned in there that he was hoping the wildcard pairing would be Topinka/Doolan but was awaiting confirmation. Never mind them, with just over a week to go, a line up would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Courtesy of the BSPA website yesterday Belle Vue: Crump & Gjedde Coventry: Harris & Schlein Eastbourne: Nicholls & Richardson Ipswich: Louis & Miskowiak Lakeside: Jonsson & Shields Peterborough: Andersen & Bjerre Poole: Pedersen & Watt Swindon: Adams & Batchelor Wolves: Lindgren & Iversen No mention of a wild card pairing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hoping for Fisher and Johansson but not a chance I'd imagine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PanthersChamp06 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Simon Stead and Jarek Hampel as wildcard pair would be decent, would be stead and screen for the next 2 down, but get hampel in, and im sure the polish fans will come and watch.

Silver Bee Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 It's a PL pair Pantherschamp. Mixing and matching teams for this other pair would be a joke IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PanthersChamp06 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 and IMO, having a prem team in the Elite League pairs is a joke...so where can we compromise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PanthersChamp06 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 I didn't disagree with that How about a wildcard team: Best riders missing out from Britain this season, so Nicki and Gollob, awesome and before you say....i know it wont happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 As Billy Janniro is probably the highest averaging rider not in the event and Simon Stead is not doing a bad job this season (just not as good as a few of us exected), maybe they could be the wildcard pair? Thy have a combined total of 16.15 between them this season in the Craven Shield and Elite Shield It's probably more than Bomber and Rory combined Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
