Good signing, Engine room looks solid, just need a number 1 now!

On the ippo thread it seem like they may be looking for a new heat leader? Maybe lynn will change to Thursday, sign nicki p and keep lewis k? Early Christmas in norfolk?

Probably about the best we can hope for, not a great fan of batch, or north for that matter but got to be better than Kenny b and porsing again.Zmarzlik(apologies for spelling) anyone?

Seeing as an out and out number one is now looking unlikely, how about something like this ( if it fits) Roo R lambert Sundstrom K Larsen Mads Kerr Rose

Sorry for seeming dum, but what did batch actually say that has got so many people irate?

Can anyone name a harder/dirtier top 5 than this?Chuck in garrity at reserve and most teams would be terrified to visit!

The best team won tonight, the fact they are at the foot of the table speaks volumes for the stars woeful performance , puk and Jacob apart . Lets hope for a fresher look next year, built around puk if he wants to return, and lambert if his attitude is right.

Glad I am away for this one , what a joke.

And I suppose you could wave a magic wand and make all the right decisions! Some people really ought to lighten up a bit! 3 heats to go and still in with a shout, get a grip

Probably because 50% of his rides are with Ash Morris, who is struggling a bit, to say the least.

Phil Crump, my childhood hero

Totally agree, I just couldn't quite figure how to word it , but hopefully it may lead to a stronger league.

A bit radical, and too late for this season, but why not have a simple questionnaire that each club can ask its supporters to fill in. multiple choice such as ; would you like A) More meetings with possibly less top stars or Less meetings but stronger teams. C) Not bothered Do you think a set race night is a good idea ?YES/NO I know that is only 2 examples but if the same set of questions was asked by all clubs, the results compiled and analysed, then something might get formulated that appealed to more people , would work as a business and may stop the decline of our sport.

Good luck for the future schrammy, your season in the"engine room" with poty sanchez at lynn was awesome . All the best.

It was ted nelson I believe, and yes it was "wellie" that went through it!

Personally I think the club should be applauded for entering a competition in the national league.Not only will it be a confidence boost for their Elite League reserves but will also give extra rides to a few other young brits too.Who knows , one or two may catch the eye on a track that is not seen by many national league riders.2015 draft reserves in the making? Its just a shame more clubs cant/wont give more chances to the youngsters.

Ryan fisher, hans Nielsen

Hans Nielsen had some great races with bo Petersen and crumpy at the abbey, loved to boo him. Per Jonsson prob one of my favourite "away team" stars, awesome.

Porsing/lebedev

Buczkowski and hougaard?

On decent machinery there is no reason why Ulrich Ostergaard couldn't put a couple of points on his average now he has the eoes as his home track

2brits at reserve! How many years have people been calling for a system that gives the young brits a look in?Now it looks like being implemented , the majority of comments are negative!FFsake wind your necks in and lets give this proposal some SUPPORT.Something needed to be done, and a step has been taken in the right direction. Lets give our home grown talent a chance.They will be part of a team with much more experienced riders they can learn from, they will have a couple of reserve rides each meeting PLUS the opportunity to mix it with the big boys, confidence will come with racing against reserves and that will hopefully be carried across to any extra rides they may get. Sure, it may be too much of a step for some but not for others but no one will know until the idea is tried out.Roll on 2014

Couldnt agree more, dan halsey appears to have a nasty habit of turning right on opponents. There are hard riders and there are dirty riders, but that was reckless and dangerous, deliberate and un necessary

That is something a promoter would need to consider prior to building his team, ie how many likely absences and build the team accordingly. How about any team absences, bring in the no 8 and bump everyone up a place in the team, ie 2nd heat leader becomes no1 in his absence or 1st reserve moves up to 2nd string if one is absent. I know there will always be unforseen absences, it is inevitable but if a system like this was used surely promoters would have to seriously consider whether or not to offer a team place to a rider who has a history or likelihood of missing several meetings.
