lucifer sam Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 What an idiot. There's only one idiot on this thread, and it's not Schumi. All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orion Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 It's an individual. It's 80 years. I'm missing why either is so special for anyone but BV fans? As said before what so good about it being 80 years ........ why not 79 or 81 years . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 (edited) Was announced in last nights programme that the riders in this meeting will be riding for Speedway teams past and present. Race Jackets have been commissioned and the teams being represented are: Wembley Lions Norwich Stars Leicester Lions Wimbledon Dons Bristol Bulldogs West Ham Hammers Exeter Falcons Sheffield Tigers Poole Pirates Coventry Bees Odsal Tudors Swindon Robins Southampton Saints Cradley Heath Heathens Birmingham Brummies Belle Vue Aces Oh the irony if Lukasz Jankowski ended up with the Coventry race jacket Why have Oxford been forgotten - surely we have more history than some of the teams listed above?

Subedei Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 Thats not a nice thing to say about Orion. Compared with some of the nonsense you've come out with tonight, including an unwarranted attack on schumi, orion is a voice or reason. And he has a sense of humour, which seems to be lacking among Aces types these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUPERACE Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Someone to watch - one for the future. Is he polish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradford Ace Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Just been debating this on the Aces website. Seems a very strange booking given that he's never ridden in this country before & is alongside a host of established Elite League & GP Stars so presumably he's been booked with a few to having a look at him as a possible future signing providing he rides Kirky Lane ok?? July the 1st maybe?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERACE Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 No, Croatian. Have a look at his website for a list of honours. Thanks Schumi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenn Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Don't Lakeside have first call on him? Unless he's signed a contract I would say it's totally his call - but that's a whole other discussion..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERACE Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Don't Lakeside have first call on him? If hes signed a contract yes otherwise no. I think the answer must be No as it would be a strange pick for the 80th Anniversay meeting if he wasnt available, I am sure we must be interested in signing him and see this as the reason he will be riding on July 28th. If he was already signed by another EL team I couldnt seem him being booked for the 80th meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERACE Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 What I mean is a gentleman's agreement. I believe Poole have done a few in their time, and currently have one with Sajfutdinov? Okay, so nothing solid, granted, but still shows the promotion are forward thinking. Gentlemens agreements mean nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 What I mean is a gentleman's agreement. I believe Poole have done a few in their time, and currently have one with Sajfutdinov? Okay, so nothing solid, granted, but still shows the promotion are forward thinking.To be fair, Poole had one with Klindt. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that either party can break it at any time. I'd find it odd for a continental rider signing for Lakeside or BV TBH with both being so small and technical. That said, it could be a selling point if the rider wnat to learn smaller tracks and become a more all round rider. Pavlic is meant to be one of the top 3 or 4 riders not already over here and is hot property along with Sajfutdinov and some other young Russians whose name escapes me (is it a surprise with there names). Linus Elkof is meant to be another to keep an eye on, but I was not all that impressed at the Brandonapolis last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mark.1 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Was really looking forward to this until Coventry re-arranged their fixture against Peterborough on the same date.looks as if this also means replacements required for Bomber and Steady. Have coventry agreed this fixture with peterborough? No Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
