Star Fever Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 Bjerre usually takes weeks to get his confidence back after a big off.....if we weren't already screwed we probably are now. I nearly clicked 'like' on your post but that would've given the wrong impression maybe. Suffice to say I agree - unfortunately, so hopefully it's just bruising......

Trees Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 (edited) Fingers, toes, tongue, eyes and anything else I can get crossed that Ken is okay from tonight! Edited September 13, 2014 by Trees 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron Reuben Smith Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Doesn't look like Kenneth will be riding on Tuesday. I know I'll get stick for this but I'd love to see Mads back even if for one race. Stick Schlein in at 1, Mads at 3 and Scotty at 5 for Tuesday and see what happens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted September 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Seems like Kenneth popped his shoulder out last night and won't be riding for any of his three teams this week. Expect him to be hesitant and mojo-less when he returns rather than the full-of-confidence rider he's been over the last couple of weeks. So it leaves us scratching about for two guests on Tuesday, neither of whom are likely to match what our Danes would score. Just hope everyone else can step up to secure to spot, have given up on the Play Offs but 'winning' the league table would be great after such a successful season.

Bagpuss Posted September 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 We now need some of that special dispensation! For the good of British speedway! Don't disagree but rules can't be changed during the season IMO, that's a very slippery slope. Needs looking at for future seasons though for sure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Rules can always be changed, the promoters must see their 2014 rule is wrong in ours and Pooles' cases, fairness is always the best way ..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 (edited) Bjerre is hoping to just have 1 week out and then be back so will be back for play offs. Shamak must be due back for Poole soon. It is terrible that heat leaders get injured and can't be replaced in teams such as Barker and esp the in form NKI. However with regard to Ward, he knew the risks he was taking and let his team down again so not the same. Maybe Poole should stick with Holder next year instead.

I bloody hope so, Ward has had his chance and blew it time and time again I don't want to see him in Pirates kevlar ever again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haza Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Firstly I want to wish Kenneth a speedy recovery - I was at Vojens last night and when he crashed I thought that's it season over for the Stars but when he got up and walked back to the pits it was a more positive sign but sadly when he came out for the rerun you could see he was far from right - as others have said he won't by the tweets he's posted be riding for any of his clubs this week which make Tuesday a very tough meeting can we have two guests or is it one guest and R/R not sure on the rules this season on that one . Also Kenneth has a very big meeting next Saturday at Lonigo the GP challenge and I'd expect him to ride in that if he can . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well said. Holder has always shown more commitment to Poole and only missed fixtures due to injuries. Seems to have matured alot and has his head firmly on his shoulders. Nobody could argue that Ward has a talent but has really let down the fans alot and never seems to learn from it. Big risk to Poole I do feel for you as you have paid and supported your team all year and when you need him most, he has left the fans and his team mates without a number 1. You could still win the league but he's made it harder. Edited September 14, 2014 by mdmc82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivanhoward Posted September 14, 2014 Report Share Posted September 14, 2014 Certainly would appear that Mads will be in Sweden on Tuesday. I believe 2 guests are allowed (Poole used 3 last Wednesday).The best option would be Zagar but he seems reluctant. Other possibles could be Hans Andersen, Jason Doyle or even Craig Cook or Bjarne Pedersen. R/R would not be very likely as the Stars other riders are not very often capable of beating visiting heat leaders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doyle is unable to guest due to work permit restrictions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
