Poland's 2nd and 3rd tiers have got excellent investment this season from a new TV deal and, with that, comes the usual increase in sponsors who want to get seen.... Maybe that has persuaded a fair few to give the UK a miss given they can earn well riding just one meeting a week in Poland, as well as riding in their own countries.... Just because they are allowed to do "Poland and two others" at that level, doesn't mean they have to if they feel they are earning enough... And the Polish Div 2 and 3 heat leaders are the "target market" I would think for the UK promoters... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although personally I have concerns about his shoulder seeing as he had all winter to get it sorted (presumably) and its gone after his first practice session. If he doesn't come over Lord knows who would replace he and Puk. Are they the same people that do the no brakes, no fear podcast which is starting again next week. If so they might keep tabs on it.

Vicar Posted April 4, 2022 Report Share Posted April 4, 2022 Hello, I just read recent Speedway Star, section with season preview. In King's Lynn I found such a part: What is "Premiership: 2001" in there? At that time there was no Premiership. King's Lynn was riding in Elite League and didn't win it. I didn't find any competition they won that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly this, Premiership Shield or something similar. We beat Eastbourne over two legs, they had won the League and us the Cup in 2000. Remember Puk having some his first rides over here as a number 8 in the home leg. Edited April 4, 2022 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t think he would do a season, and that made him a risk, and the risk in last seasons team only lasted 2 meetings.. I hope to be proved wrong on this, because it could stuff our season up..

What utter rubbish Have a look at results for 2000 was very unlucky not to have won the top flight that season and also early 70s we was there it there about a to say we’ve never been a proper team in the top flight is absolute rubbish.
