hyderd Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Another wind-up post. Foreverblue has correctly described the situation. When it comes to NKI though, why/how would he be motivated to get out of bed to help out the Wolves? His season is almost over. He can be at home with his feet up with just one more SEC & SGP to go. Why should he be bothered to fly himself and his mechanics to the UK, digging his bikes out of storage and fight his way through the traffic for the sake of 4-5 races more... ? So when he wakes up in his Stockholm hotel tomorrow NKI will fly back to his bedsit in Peterborough instead of heading back to his family in Denmark? Maybe during Kings Lynn' s season you might have had a point. Now the season is over, why should he? Because he is a professional speedway rider and earns his living riding his bike.

Jacques Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'd be surprised if Peter Adams hadn't secured his services last night. I hope it's NKI, no better than him atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Sweetman Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 If, NKI isnt available,id go for Cookie rather than Nicholls,he would be good for at least 10 points with his gating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fish keeper Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Why would he not ride its money in the bank to him and he knows the track very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacques Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) Nigel Pearson @nigelpearson3m Scandinavian GP winner Niels-Kristian Iversen will replace Tai Woffinden for @WolvesSpeedway v Birmingham live on.

Poole Quay 7 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) Provided he is asked and doesn't have any other commitments, I would be surprised if NKI doesn't take the booking. EDIT: Just seen the confirmation after my post! Edited September 22, 2013 by Poole Quay 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_martin Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 4-5 races? You mean 16-20 Ahhh, I see...the transfer deadline has passed. So you can't sign anyone as a "loanee"...but you can have someone as a "permaguest". Anyway, I hope he's not banking on his 11th ride coming his way...

BWitcher Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 UK Martin seems a bit worried, trying to talk himself into believeing Niels won't ride. Seriously though, excellent news he is guesting, he is the only rider who could match Tai's scoring power. The only thing we may potentially miss is Tai's team riding ability but in all honesty you can't say we are any weaker with Niels in.

Nki guested for poole in the k.o.cup final against coventry last season at the very end of october and dropped 1 point from 12 rides !! Cannot see him giving any less than 100% in these matches !!

fish keeper Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 PUK is the only one who could replace Tai riding really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencebel Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 NKI is a rider on form at the moment, so he should do well for Wolves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noggin Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Losing Tai could have been a real disaster, but having PUK as guest lestens the blow, superb rider in the form of his life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy robin Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Look how close Wolves came to using R-R Tai Woffinden 9.23 Fredrik Lindgren 9.21 Bad luck Wuffy get well soon Thank god they can have a guest with Tai still top of the averages as this season has been spoilt by too many teams having to have R/R for injured riders or the pathetic double upper rule they brought in.

Steve0 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 Get well soon Woffy. It must have taken super-human effort to keep riding with a broken collarbone - I doff my cap to him - a worthy world champion in waiting :t: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy robin Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) I thought you didnt care whats happens. I have been dissappointed with how many times Swindon have gone into meetings with riders missing & a daughter at university has meant finances have had to be put into other areas more important than watching speedway live. Don't care with all the bullrubbish on the Swindon vs. Poole thread but at least this one isn't like it. I care about speedway & r/r in a play off isn't good for the sport & that is why I replied. Oh & the human in me wants Tai to get well so he can have another tattoo with the words WORLD CHAMPION 2013 next to the tattoo of his dad's final note he had copied with ink. As a dad I had a few tears when I saw that in the Sun on Saturday. I care for the future of the sport & for me only a Wolves win will be the right & honest way for the sport this season as to many questions would be if the other 3 win it. My days were fulfilled by winning last season at Poole & nothing can better that. Apologies for putting this reply on this thread to the Wolves & Brummies fans. Hope that's a good enough reply for you. Edited September 22, 2013 by Crazy robin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
