Pre-season International Speedway Cup

Yep he won't be old enough until early April.

This is a strange one for me. Isn't Lambert old enough to race everywhere else except the UK? This fixture will be set up under Polish regulations I should imagine and not part of the BSPA. If that is the case he should be eligible for this and I agree, he would be stronger against what's available for that Polish team I can't remember how to spell. (Zielona Gora (copy paste from above :lol: ))

Not sure at 15 he is old enough to race everywhere else.And can't see how a meeting in GB can be run under any other authority other than ACU/BSPA

and Risager has done just what for British Speedway ? He shouldn't even be having a meeting .

I'm with you on this one tell me how any rider deserves a testimonial that hasn't completed 10 years for one team there nearly all on the same ban wagon we will appear for any number of teams for 10 years and we will get a testimonial none of them are bothered about loyalty

So why there is suggestion -"it's a shame the pair of them will pull out of the testimonial" ?

I only said 'Shame for Risager!!!'.

 

With this 'Pre-Season Cup' meeting now only on the Saturday it might dissuade some KL supporters from attending Risager's meeting depending where NKI and Bjerre decide (or are forced) to ride!!?

Witches vs stars in a pre season challenge would be good wouldn't it?

As for 'poop hole' take it you not been lately then.......

Correct, not since the Stars last visited. It could look like Wembley but it will always be a poop hole to me just like the Showground :lol:

World No.2 Jaroslaw Hampel and Sweden’s Andreas Jonsson could make rare appearances in the UK as Zielona Gora reportedly plan a pre-season clash with King’s Lynn on March 19.
Polish organiser Team Player Management had planned to stage a two-day tournament at Peterborough until the club withdrew from the Elite League and moved into the Premier.
But according to Falubaz.com, the meeting will now be a one-off event at King’s Lynn with Hampel, Jonsson, former Stars rider and Falubaz captain Piotr Protasiewicz and World Under-21 champ Patryk Dudek all lined up to race.
With Elite League sides considerably weaker than their Ekstraliga counterparts, it is believed King’s Lynn will be able to draft in some star guests alongside SGP regulars Niels-Kristian Iversen and Kenneth Bjerre to match the might of the tourists.

 

So now looks like its been changed to the Wednesday?

I'd say the opposite if it is the case that British Promoters have changed the date. Why? well there are 4 fixtures that are in the calender:

Eastbourne - Joonas Kylmakorpi Testimonial
Plymouth - British U21 Semi Final .
Workington v Newcastle Ian Thomas Shield
Ipswich - Morten Risager Testimonial .
Surely these should take precedent over a fixture that has been "requested" by a Polish club? May have been different if Sky had actually been involved in the original tournament but that doesn't seem the case.

There's nothing different to this report from Paul Burbidge that wasn't in the most recent Polish announcement - except it's missing the word Saturday!! The Polish press release stated , Saturday 19th March!!?? :shock::shock:

I'm starting to wonder if we're not making any announcements on this meeting because it's going to be a 'behind closed doors' event.

 

If not, this is a meeting our promotion should be jumping up and down about. People prefer team over individual meetings and there is genuine class in this one and there will be people that will come from miles around I'm sure.
