On a side note when does Grondal get his new 5.70 average? - that's give us 8.36 to play with 

He wont as he will not complete a 4th away meeting

Hardly the most important issue given his condition. I wish him all the best

Going to need a new signing for Emil.

Broken Pelvis, Punctured Lung and four cracked ribs.

Poor guy, all the best Emil.

PETERBOROUGH’S Emil Grondal is recovering after a high-speed crash in Denmark on Wednesday.
Grondal was involved in an horrific pile-up with Patrick Hougaard during Holstebro’s Super League match at Grindsted.
He suffered multiple injuries including a cracked (but not broken) hip, a punctured lung and internal bleeding.
A major concern was that he did not have full feeling in his legs after the crash; however, this has now thankfully returned, although he is unable to take the weight of walking at this stage.
Panthers promoter Ged Rathbone said: “I’ve spoken to people who were there, they tell me this was a dreadful crash and there’s absolutely no doubt that Emil’s neck brace and helmet saved him from very, very serious injuries.
“He’s been completely battered down his right-hand side especially, but he’s going to be attempting to walk again later today hopefully, and obviously it’s a huge relief that the feeling is back in his legs.
“This sort of thing is another reminder of the dangers of the sport, and the risks the riders take for their careers and for our entertainment.
“Despite his injuries, Emil is a typical speedway rider so he’s already talking about hopefully getting back racing by the middle of June!
“Over the next few days we’ll get a clearer idea of whether that will be possible, and we have a break in our own schedule at the moment so we’ll keep in touch with him and monitor his recovery process.
“Emil made a great start to the season with us, he’s come back to the club in good shape and we hope he isn’t going to be out for too long.”
All at Peterborough Speedway would like to wish Emil well for his recovery, and we look forward to seeing him back at the East of England Arena as soon as possible.

ENDS

Very insensitive and untimely remark , Flappy you've sunk to the lowest vilest level with this remark , do you not feel ashamed.

The comment also shows his total lack of understanding of how averages are calculated. and applied.

He didn't wish him ill but if you want to take it as insensitive and untimely then that's your perogative. I'm sure that he wasn't alone in his thoughts but it is a time for thoughts rather than the keyboard. The post is ill timed as yours is over the top.

Not being funny but who does know...get well soon Emil.

Thankfully Neil seems to have the skill of clarifying mud which one assumes was partly the reason for his appointment
