Quite possible, but I've been to other meetings where he's been ill and my perception is that he does suffer a lot with illness compared to other riders. The Wright drop out was obviously mandatory following concussion and Nicholls also has a mandatory ban for a non-speedway related injury. Really disappointing for the fans when these things happen as we all have conspiracy theories which may or may not be true but it's always the fans that are the losers.

The mostly bodged 1-18 numbers attached to the rear of the individual team kevlars on display at Owlerton were laughable. They screamed 'small time'. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheese Posted September 3, 2019 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 You aren't supposed to notice! http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.37360 Although on a similar note, how difficult is it to have a picture where all 3 riders are looking at the camera? Exactly the same for the British Final. With the NL Pairs all 6 riders were.. we just have a random chap stood in the background also looking!

The way the sport is promoted in this country i doubt if there will be many riders of the calibre of the Polish league riding here soon Probably in their eyes more cost effective to be owed £2-3K per meeting by your Polish club than £500-£750 by your British one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
