SPEEDWAY News and Fixtures

(SPEEDWAY 1)BERWICK have decided not to sign a temporary replacement for broken arm victim Lee Complin.The Yorkshireman has had surgery on the injury and the Bandits have vowed to keep his place open by sharing his outings amongst colleagues.Bandits boss Dave Peet said: "The riders concerned will each get a little more money from their efforts in these races, and because they know they are in effect keeping Lee's race-jacket warm for him, this will stimulate even more team spirit."(SPEEDWAY 2)BELLE Vue star Peter Karlsson rates his new club's chances of success this season.The popular Swede was skipper for Wolverhampton last season when they won the Elite League title and will face his former club on Friday in Manchester and back at Monmore on Tuesday.He said: "The fans seems to be excited about the new season and I think that is right because we have a good bunch of guys here."It reminds me of the feeling at Wolverhampton this time last year because they had Tai Woffinden and some good young riders. It's the same here now with good young talent in the team."(FIXTURES)WEDNESDAY MARCH 31:PREMIER TROPHY: Birmingham v Redcar 7.30, King's Lynn v Rye House 7.30
