He said in the Polish press that he wants too.

It was a fairly matter-of-fact statement that I found on sportowefaktywhich also reports he's been suspended by Svemo for the entirety of May 2026as they issue his license I assume it's not just from the Swedish league?

I'm not seeing Hellstrom-Bangs or Charles Wright listed as desirable signings for the Witches in that thread.

That's interestingMaybe Kildemand is a temporary signing until the end of May?

Lidsey had a mare that night in all fairness.

End of the dayKildemand's GSA for Oxford riding @ No.4 from 6 Meetings was 3.56 (Home) and 4.00 (Away) Including Bonus Points.

A track he wasn't get paid atin a team that was on a downer. Total different environment at belle vue. He was much better at Berwick due to the environment

I didn't say that at all.

Yes you didread  back your replies to PhilTheACE.  Your basically stating most Aces fans wouldn't be happy as it  meant signing Kildermand.

Nope.

I said Aces fans would've been expecting a Young and Exciting up and comer on a Assessed 5.00 rather than KildemandSomeone like a Hellstrom-Bangs.

You've also accused me of saying that most Belle Vue fans would've wanted to get rid of one of Kurtz/Bewley....Which I never said.

Try reading the posts properly instead of getting triggered over someone's opinion.

His spell at 2nd String was only until early MayBasically as soon as the season started though Phil.

Anyway he's with you so we'll see what happens once the season starts.

At least he will be paid at belle vue so should be a happier rider and raring to go. His average will improve 

Got to feel for those Oxford riders who are still owed money (and not talking a week or two either) when the season finished nearly 3 months ago

I know. I have heard that some are paid up now. But as you say. Not everyone 

 

For me you can't judge anyone's stats or points at that club the last few years. 

 

I'd go as far as saying every rider is now on a bargain average if they were to go to a properly run club 

[ouch]

We get this every year on all the team threads. 

We would have loved to keep the team together but rules don’t allow it. 

Losing Jaimon allows us to keep the bulk of our main team intact. 

ANY replacement for Jaimon will feel second best. 

We might have wanted a newbie from abroad and things may have gone west. 

Sogiven all that and this is the bit we should be debatingout of the candidates that fit our average gap who should we have signed?

Berwick is a championship team that usually doesnt do wella much less stressful environment to Belle Vue and the racing is much easier for someone of his ability. He is a top rider in the championship.

I treat it as an equal chance as last year.

Last year lowest qualifier had 3 teams above & 3 teams below them.

This year lowest qualifier will have 2 teams above & 2 teams below them.

If one of those is Brady there is not much left for the last rider which I assume will be Tate.

That is what pretty much everyone predicted from the startunless BV choose Mulford over Zischke as the 3.00 reserve.

[PhilTheAce]

mulfordtate or gusts fit with brady as next rider

Sure it featured in the Speedway Star also. FRom memory he wasn't getting regular racing in Poland or struggled due to lack of racing and mentiined the UK as a potential opportunity to develop and get regular racing. If his salary expectations weren't too high and logistics worked if on an assessed average could be worth an option. Although with Kildemand riding at Berwick he will have machinery + mechanic already in place.
