Would anyone else take Peter Kildemand on a 7.10?

Erratic at times but worth the gamble imo.

 

He would be a brilliant signing for any team, particularly because the fans would love his riding style. He’s an entertainer.

The possible downside is that he’s lost form in Poland and needs to re-establish himself there and he often falls while leading races!

Yep and Mikkel Bech 

Same.

Very good chance we will get Kildemand imo. Sheffield & Swindon cant fit him in. Peter doesn't like Monmore and I doubt he would like Foxhall which only leaves Belle Vue, KL & P'Boro.

BV - Highly rumoured they have signed Brady Kurtz, Dan Bewley & Charles Wright so only looking for one more to complete the top 4. 

KL - Will more than likely keep four of the top 5 from last year (R. Lambert, Cook, Riss and one of MPT or Jorgensen)

Yes. Signed for Gdansk hasn't he?

He would love the Showground track as well.

I’ll take it you’ve not seen either rider ride much this season. B)

 

Holder averaged 6.67 in Ekstraliga, the top league in the world, and you don’t think he’d be good value at 7.5(?) here?

Kildemand had a very bad year in Poland (3.91) but look at the standard of rider he was up against, and he says he’s determined to get back to his best next year.

I have no doubt that he would both achieve 7.5 here and give home fans a lot of fun.

And Iversen a GP rider managed 6.97 for Ipswich this year.  Shouldn’t he have achieved a similar 7.5 average then using your logic?

Jepsen Jensen would be a good signing.

What about Dudek? I hear he is looking to ride in the UK to kickstart his career.

Anybody who is a Jeremy Corbyn fan can safely be disregarded as a lunatic.

Not necessarily.

He came in on short notice as an end of season replacement for a handful of matches with no knowledge of the Ipswich track and no practice on British tracks for a year. I doubt he had enough time to prepare and to organise his mechanics and bikes.

If he’d been signed at the start of the year he would inevitably have averaged more than 8.

Like people have been saying not much about in terms of heat leaders, I name dropped some but they have been signed up. I am not going to spend anymore time guessing. Just hope if there is only to be 1 out and out heat leader that there is plenty of strength in depth in the side. With the new boys Sheffield being up had planned to go to 1 of those at home, for sure will now with Nicki P and J Holder in the side.
