Yeah, last summer, demands will be higher when the bidder is more desperate Now its the winter and Dudeks demands are considerably lower now but, still on the high side for UK speedway but other riders are here on similar money 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted November 20 Report Share Posted November 20 (edited) Don't think Dudek would be any good in the UK. Pawlicki mk2 without the overtaking ability. Edited November 20 by SPEEDY69 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP78 Posted November 20 Report Share Posted November 20 Oxford must have a new number one lined up surely? Tungate did a great job last year and Janowski will surely improve his average, but the Spires will need more firepower to challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted November 21 Author Report Share Posted November 21 This would be way under the points limit so something's not right. How certain is a Riss return? 1. ? 2. Riss 3. Janowski 4. Wright 5. Tungate 6. Gilkes 7. Killeen (RS) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killeen (RS) If it was any other team I'd agree with you, but last year Oxford kept weakening the team, maybe they've just started earlier this year? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue witch Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 Riss on facebook is asking for a mechanic for both leagues so I'd say highly likely unless he's going Brum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP78 Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 So is Gilkes on a 3 as he won't be in the rising star position? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MP78 Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 Thinking that his 3.26 will be adjusted by the 25% reduction and obviously he can't go below 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because he’s still on the rising star list as he meets the qualifying criteria. Whether a club uses him in any position from 1-6 is irrelevant. You only get a 25% reduction when you first exit the rising star scheme due to no longer meeting the qualifying criteria. Dan Gilkes will get the standard 2.5% British reduction, not 25%. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janowski 4. Wright 5. Tungate 6. Gilkes 7. Killeen (RS) Potential to be a solid side. I wouldn't bother with Gilkes personally. I reckon there struggling to get a number 1 in so you have to go down the kings lynn route of strength n depth. Dropping Gilkes leaves loads of points for two assessed riders from abroad pushing Riss to reserve. I can't think of any riders though unfortunately. Birmingham have snapped up most of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilly Posted November 22 Report Share Posted November 22 As I've said already, if we can't get a genuine number 1, we will be struggling to be competitive. I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised when they sign/are announced Don't leave it too long thou, season tickets will be going on sale shortly no doubt.

Is Martin Vaculik signed up anywhere other than Gorzow next season? Looks like he might have some spare time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Name is Janowski. Just needs to perform like one on a regular basis. Leave a bit of scope for making strengthening change/s if he isn't hacking it by end of May Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
