  1. Barker for a number one has dropped a lot off his starting figure which wasnt assessed, it was a real average from the year before By his standards he has been poor. This isnt a dig as i like him as a rider. To drop from near 9 to 7.5 is a poor figure and anyone who argues otherwise clearly has little knowledge of the sport. An established number one like Ben Barker shouldnt be blaming machinery problems as an excuse for poor form
  2. From riding at a hole like lakeside. Hes proved as soon as he leaves a trick track his average will sink big time as will be proved at leicester! Talented my arse
  3. Bridger one of the most talented UK riders? Lol Hes an el second string. Had pretty good backing sponsorship wise over the years too Nah, morelilke one of the many over hyped brits!
  4. What a shame having to leave the UK and come back to Australia!!!!'
  5. Stead wont retire and why should he - hes probably the PL number 1. Had a pretty good career - remember him being a star in Sheffs 1999 pl winning side. Never be a gp rider but one of the Pl greats for sure. Sheffield need to sign a worthy replacement though if they are to challenge for honours - Dryml would be a diabolical replacement.
  6. Seen a few of your posts lately and the wprd thicko sprung to mind - this post clearly cements why i think that!!! Rising will tell you black is white as long as his bsi lovers tell him to do so. At least that disgrace of a gp wont be back on the calender next year - doesnt even look a good stadium so fail to understand where the comments about it being a major stadium come from!
  7. switched off after heat 4, complete rubbish on a pathetic track. What a load of garbage As for that berk phil rising defending the non stop nonsense that occurs at most gps, grow a pair and admit the whole show is a farce I was looking forward to the Melbourne gp at the ethiad stadium at the end of the season seeing melbourne is my new home city but probably give it a miss now if its another farcial mess of a temp track.
  8. Always remember Ashfield as being one of the PLs best race tracks when i first started following Newport. Didnt attend until 2003/4ish but used to have the videos of the wasps scottish tours and the racing was superb. Seen a few heats of lastnight and the track looks good - i remember the stadium as being a right dump but looks completely different now and a good crowd too Feel big time for Peter Mole at sheffield - a good looking team just falling apart in front of him. Stead oit, in form bellego out and now this with proctor Bridger for stead and bellego for proctor still leaves them looking a good side - comptons rolling back the years which is great to see .
  9. I can see Ward heading to Swindon to replace AM and then heading back to Poole next season. Unless the deal with Magic was always to ride until Ward was able to return. Poole should get shot of Watt and bring back Pawlicki, even excusing his injuries Watts declining pretty fast and wouldnt be surprised to see him end up PL soon.
  10. Compton really has discovered some of his old form this season - good to see.
  11. Watched this from Aus at 3am this morning, thought the track was disgraceful. Complete farce Cant imagine this gp being held again despite the contract.
  12. Knew leicester looked good - even with andersen coventry still would of had a pasting Get ris of that pole what a waste of 5.50 - havin a higher average than harris and andersen in poland means sod all, both rubbish over there these days. I think klindt would be a better bet at least hed average around 5! Jamrog wont get 3. Awful signing
  13. For me despite a few wins at reading over the years one that sticks out for me was a bank holifay monday norning meeting in 1999. I remember watson getting 5-1d by kokko and clews in heat one then reeling off five wins .... Sure that was the day eldridge beat morris in heat 15 as we romped to victory! Great times
  14. I remember Risagrr being very very highly rated at 15. He was beating the lilkes of nicki p and the other top danes in denmark before he was allowed to ride innthe uk Ended up being rubbish but at 15/16 he was a very very highly rated rider, as was pavlic
  15. Too busy enjoying the Aussie sun to even notice it.... Oh dear 😂
  16. Gotta be fair i expected 9 plus from kennett last season. Still a decent number one imo. Like the rye side, if mellgren can get back to his best and jakobsen can get six then they will do well.
  17. Very talented rider - i remember compton and cunningham at reserve for pboro and their averages went sky high and were dumped at the first chance That said cunningham was superb around Swindon - even in his newport season. I remember us getting stuffed and he didnt try a leg foer a few rides then rattled off three or four wins on the bounce once the match was over!

  18. Was looking forward to seeing Cunningham in 1999 after all the hype and he turned up at newport in an early season challenge and was superb with a 15 point max. After that he was pretty average - watson and henriksson used to wipe the floor with him
  19. If Mellgrens fully fit then this move makes Rye stronger! Kennett mellgren jakobsen aspegren boxall bowen and lykke doesnt look too bad a side now imo
  20. Yet riders can sign from the continent and have two bikes ready instantly?! Rubbish i bet bridgers already sorted
