  1. is a rider with an assessed average allowed to guest?? Genuinally not sure - just one of those things that stick in the back of your mind that could be right or utter garbage. Would be quite ironic if he ended up riding more for Newcastle than Pboro!!
  2. The 'big thing' to get right re Brit youngsters next year is to ensure the likes of Clegg Jacobs Morris Branford Morley are not jettisoned due to their averages being seen as 'too high' whilst foreign riders fill reserve berths....
  3. That will have a rider list longer than the Golden Helmet in Pardubice!!
  4. If we were having an unsung hero award Id give that to Jo. He has come in and gone a great job but hasnt really heen talked about as Ben and Danyon have. Hopefully he is 100% for Thursday as he could well be the key to how we do in the play offs....
  5. Theres arguements for all of them. Morten overall for me though. Just got on and done his job. Pulls out the odd wonder ride. Has responded to the massif and of course suggested everyone join us in his recent radio interview!
  6. perhaps dping just enough and keeping their powder dry for the real tests....
  7. hopefully every effort is being made fir Thursday.... As for today I think that was as good as coukd be expected in the circumstances.
  8. Better to get it out of the system and rest up for Thursday. Shame for the Newcastle fans as much as anything. Hope they still get an entertaining match to watch.
  9. Makes any likelyhood of a point at 'Leicester' like odds.... Damage limitation effort only??
  10. hopefully he has learnt some lessons from the mistakes he made and has started to put things right.Would be best for him and any team he rides for in the future if he has....
  11. Looked a really nasty one. Doesnt matter which rider it is or what team he rides for no one wants to see that. All the best to Anders.
  12. so now i know the date what else do i need..... Day off Friday Not to be on rota for Saturday An umbrella as its in Edinburgh Travelling companions Hotel/B&B Am extra £1 if i plan to pay cash on the day Step ladder so i can see more than the riders heads (apparently) Have i missed anything???
  13. nice try! Extending your 'logic' of 7-9 for heat leaders then and a GP rider being in this band perhaps it would be more plausible for the top end to be 9 the bottom to be 7 and those in the middle 8. Lindback in 8th would be an 8... makes complete sense to use your own phrase.
  14. The reasoning given by Pboro is that no facility available as riders off to SEC and Pardubice meetings. Therefore it wouldve been 4 NL riders not guests and r/r. Can see there point but why sign riders who cant commit? Seems all the eggs went in the basket marked 'win the 2 home meetings' which became a contender for the worlds largest omlette!
  15. 10 min piece at 1:35 - interviews with Ritchie and Morten.Nice end to the Morten section....
  16. it would seem strange to leave the QF 2nd leg to the 30th but I suppose it may depend if the Monarchs are due to be missing anyone! wink
  17. no doubt - hence my labelling 'The Teflon Kid' on another thread. Still stands that ultimately that loyalty is possibly what cost qualification.
  18. I think it was not all the changes that were made but rather the one that wasnt that ensured it didnt work with the last late reshuffle. Keeping Ostergaard meant a woefully exposed bottom 3 along with a stuttering at best Mr O. Keeping NBJ (or finding a n other) and Morris instead and not bringing back Hall wouldve given a much better balance.
  19. if the likes of Bjerre Thomsen and uncle Tom Cobley had these plans in place weeks ahead why sign them knowing they couldnt/wouldnt be able to commit in the week before the cut off? This isnt snidey, it isnt sh!t stirring and it isnt gloating - just a common sense statement.
  20. If the Witches get within 10 it would be a great effort. Should be a good marker as to whether we have what it takes to be competitive in the play off. Think it may well be a home win by 12-14.
