foamfence Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Maybe so but what other line up could they have put then ? Can only go with the team they have got ! They might have gone with different guests, that line-up can do well but they are all a bit patchy, even King this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan_Jones Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 And most of them have no interest in riding over here No, that's the number of riders registered with the SCB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverblue Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 But the disparity in ability between top and bottom won't make for good racing. And the further dilution in quality will imo drive more fans away I think when you look at the line ups tonight it should make for good racing.

Panthers89 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Plenty of time for Pawel to come over to the UK now.... or will Leicester avoid the BSPA fine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcatdiary Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 No, that's the number of riders registered with the SCB. Very possibly but it doesn’t get around the fact that the ones currently riding do both leagues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midland Red Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Kyle Howarth is looking forward to these meetings and winning promotion to the Premiership Where he already rides for another club 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS50 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Kyle Howarth is looking forward to these meetings and winning promotion to the Premiership Where he already rides for another club He is injured and will not be riding today.

The Third Man Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 He is injured and will not be riding today. So Sheffield will be having RR for an injured rider while Leicester run it for a perfectly fit rider who wont come over for meeting, makes sense in Speedway I suppose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

g13webb Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 But if it’s the same riders in both leagues how can you make it all one big league, where do the extra riders come from? We could always reduce the teams to 6 riders. After all, most of the matches we watch, the Teams only have 6 riders and RR anyway...... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS50 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Just to make this a bigger farce BT still have the second leg on their programme schedule despite them agreeing for it to be off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waiheke1 Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 I think when you look at the line ups tonight it should make for good racing. Agreed. sorry, my post was in reply to alan jones who said that we could fill 17 teams in one big league. i agree that Leicester and sheffield are relatively evenly matches.

TheRealFiend Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Well if Leicester dont win tonight then they dont deserve to be in the top flight. Sheffield: Nicholls, T. Kurtz, L. Bjerre, Bates, R/R, Graversen & Wood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjerre, Bates, R/R, Graversen & Wood. Yeah but Leicester are bottom for a reason and without a rider who is fit but seemingly can't be bothered to come over.

TheRealFiend Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Yeah but Leicester are bottom for a reason and without a rider who is fit but seemingly can't be bothered to come over. Doesn't matter. Sheffield are without Grajczonek & Howarth. Apart from Nilsson all of the Lions riders have done a few meetings around Sheffield this year.

Yes but they have Nicholls who is better than either of them, I can see Sheffield winning but not by much, they should get Brady in Todd's race suit I am sure no one would notice!

bruno Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Instead of watching this I'm off to see Peter Rabbit at the pictures and on Wednesday instead of going to Brum I'm off to see Cilla the musical and because I'm away for the Golden Hammer I don't think il bother with Eastie at Monmore Green the week before. Looks like me done and dusted this year. Unfortunately there's better value for money stuff to do than speedway these days. Il still follow it and go next year but if there's something else to do il do that instead. Just like Saturday, once upon I time I wouldn't miss a GP but il tape it now and watch it later if I've got something else to do. Drinking in this case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IainB Posted October 9, 2017 Report Share Posted October 9, 2017 Kyle Howarth is looking forward to these meetings and winning promotion to the Premiership Where he already rides for another club He'll probably be replaced by Pav next year So Sheffield will be having RR for an injured rider while Leicester run it for a perfectly fit rider who wont come over for meeting, makes sense in Speedway I suppose Probably wasn't even asked to come over Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
