To me if you can average 8+ in the Top 5 your a decent rider and could be a number 1.Ellis is British Champ think most people would like to think he IS a No1,but he is not.He is just riding in the league for some easy money to subsidise his earnings.IMO.Scunny fans were far from pleased with him last season,probably for the same reason.
Maybe I’m being a bit harsh on him.Given what have seen of him over last couple of seasons though it will need a big transformation for him to get any where near previous form,we’ll see.
No machine after a couple of meetings that’s shows the lack of commitment to the sport,just wants to come back and take what pocket money money he can pick up.Poor IMO.
Why start with KO cup match,would be my question for Brummie management + given the fact that one of your main men was not even signed,then can’t make the the fixture due to other commitments.The sport is Mickey Mouse and keeps shooting itself in the foot regarding credibility and the paying punters.
