There’s no real sign at the moment that Smetana or Skorja are in the same class as Holder or Kurtz. Still, I agree, it’s more exciting for Newcastle fans and the league generally that two new continentals are coming in rather than Ludwig Lindgren, Bjerre or Kus. Well, dunno about Kus or Bjerre, but if either can emulate Ludde's Brough form, they'll be ok, for a while Edited December 22, 2019 by ruffdiamond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think big culture shock coming, for Mr Skorja. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would give him a 5pt ave. in that league, so what or who would that equate to that we know of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s the link, scroll down two thirds. He’s between Jordan Stewart and Lasse Bjerre. https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/polska-2-liga-zuzlowa/statystyki Edited December 22, 2019 by DC2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I rate Smetana and IMO he could become a very good scorer for Newcastle over the next few seasons. George Stancl brought him across mid season to see how he did and he did OK. George says he is good on small tracks and I notice he rides big tracks with the tight on small track style so I am not really concerned about him. He'll do OK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must admit Dave, I thought he looked ok and smooth enough on his skid at Brough, although a know its different with three other riders on it tho. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if we were to set the bar at that level, a think he'll be ok. One seems to be improving well and, the other am not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only surprise would be that you don't finish bottom with that side. Good to hear that you have 2 points up your sleeve. Might have been better using it to build a decent line up from the start though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good try. but the question was to the Village I***t. I could give you the reason for all of them why they are not at Brough. Nice try but. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be reasons why the majority of those didn't have team places last term, and of those that did, most of them didn't last long.
