T.N.T. Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Haven't seen it posted elsewhere in the PL section, so sorry if it is but Nicolai Klindt tweeted the other day that he has signed for Scunthorpe.He repaces Mchael Palm Toft in the Scorpions team. This season Nic has been well below what he is really capable of and in the EL for Kings Lynn and then Peterborough he has been averaging just over three points a meeting and seen his average of 6.58 in 2011 slip to 5.68 in 2012 and now down to 4.14. Now with a young child, Nic bases himself in Wolverhampton and admits its more a problem in his head than anything and if he can get among the points in the Premier League, his confidence will return and you could see the talent that made him one of Denmarks top young riders just a few years ago and featured in the World Team Cup. Good Luck to Nic and hope Scunthorpe get to see the real rider we Wolves fans know he can be whenhe is on form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzie4388 Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Got to feel sorry for Mchael Palm Toft cracking little rider. Someone's not seen Palm Toft this year.[ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike.Butler Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) Toft rode in the 4TT today....you sure he's been released? Edited July 14, 2013 by Mike.Butler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
em1500uk Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Yes. Michael Palm Toft has been released. Think he just stepped in as a last minute change maybe due to Ashley Birks sustaining an injury whilst guesting for Leicester on Saturday night. All the best to Nicolai Klindt at Scunthorpe. Might even head back up there at some point for a nosey. I was really looking forward to seeing him race for the Stars this year, but sadly that didn't last too long! I hope he gets his mojo back and returns to the top flight at some point. He's a far better rider than what he has been this season. Least he's prepared to admit he thinks his problem is a psychological one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duffyscouse Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Sad to see MPT go - however the lad was struggling and not looking comfortable - welcome aboard Nicolai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 So Palm Toft was dropped after Friday's meeting. Re-instated on Sunday Dropped again on Tuesday. I await to see when he will be re-instated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backless Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 It may well have been announced on Friday - always a pretty dumb thing to do (see every signing that isn't completed or re declaration that isn't approved) - but until the team is re declared & approved, Palm Toft was / is still in the Scunthorpe 1-7. As far as "the Terminator" is concerned, Scunthorpe will hope he puts in a bit more effort than he did guesting on a northern tour for Rye House (?) last year.

Backless Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Wrong bloke. Not even the same nationality!! Apologies for confusing under-achieving journeyman Scandinavians. I look forward to GP standard performances which will aid future differentiation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) Apologies for confusing under-achieving journeyman Scandinavians. I look forward to GP standard performances which will aid future differentiation. Klindt did pretty well guesting for us at Plymouth a couple of weeks ago. Three heat wins, including a vital 5-1 with Anders Mellgren in heat 15. He's also guesting for the Rockets on Saturday in the Glasgow/Sheffield double header Edited July 16, 2013 by Shadders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The move was already approved - it just takes three days until the new 1-7 takes effect, which is why Tofty could ride at Peterborough in the meantime. Mind you, as you can't even tell riders of a different nationality apart, I can see why you might have some problems understanding this. Backless, have you never filmed Nicolai Klindt at Berwick or Sheffield? All the best Rob Peasley Edited July 17, 2013 by lucifer sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
