Rayleigh

still a better option than bringing over a foreigner and hoping anyway! That's and interesting plan, there is a rumour that Nick Busk Jacobson has promise, we could get him over, use this season to bed him in to English speedway, see the tracks, learn the gearing etc and then in year 2 we could take advantage of a fast improving low average rider like we did with Linus Sundstrom and some other rider whose name escapes me.

Congratulations on December clearly lots of people recruit at this time of year., This team is going to struggle big time away.But after the straight jacket that the first 5 riders announced put us in, Robbo and Heaps was pretty good. With the big advantage of Kasper/Lanham at reserve which will help the lack of heat leaders 2 & 3 to help Kennett.

I heard that Robbo was ignored on his recent visits to Rye (disgraceful if that was the case) and re-signs as soon as Len leaves (maybe coincident) Welcome home Robbo, I know we have a fairly weak team but I will at least enjoy Robbo and Kasper at home although Shadders away days will be barron to say the least.

in 2014 Kus was superb at the back end of the season for Berwick, so much so that Redcar insisted on using him in their team for 2015 in 2015 Kus got better and better as the season progressed (didn't sulk) and as Redcar`s injuries mounted he carried the team almost single-handedly in 2016 would I want him as our No 1, no, but with a top end of Lambert, Worrall S and Lingren he would be a dream second string (ours is Leigh Lanham) As for this " gating tart" label, what big scoring rider does not score the vast baulk of his points from the gate.

I think Masters would be an improvement on Poundbert

Like everyone not the most exciting team so far But the real test is when Warren makes changes to the team when the results prove what everyone expects(I would guess by May) Warren clearly moved last season when he saw the season was petering out, granted the changes didn`t work but the last three years under Len each season failed not because of the team in March but the during the season changes that were woeful to say the least. If Warren stays with this team then I strongly advice NO SHALE as its a team of gaters (sorry Kasper)

Is history repeating itself. When Len sold Rye to Ronnie Russell in 1987 he omitted to include Andrew Silver in the deal (to Ronnies surprise) and promptly sold Andrew to Arena Essex. Move on 20 years, Len made some barbed comments in the S Star clearly stating this was no amicable split, so was NBJ included in the sale and if not what was the loan/sale terms of acquiring NBJ?

What, for the play offs

Is Todd Kurtz fit for the play offs or is he "done" for the season

Its time to start supporting Warren Scott at Rye House, whatever has gone on, has gone on, but ALL us fans wish Rye House to continue and grow and the ONLY way this can happen is under the owners wishes and that it WARREN SCOTT. Try to move on and see the bigger picture and support the club not boycott it, Warren you have my support.

Shadders should we be looking towards Len or Warren regarding Andrews departure (surely if Andrew wanted to move on he would of waited until after the season as we are coming to the business end of what has been a very successful season for the Raiders)

Very sad as Andrew has been THE success story at Rye House this year. Our loss will be somebobys gain.

Welcome aboard Robert, you start wish a clean slate (after all Peterboro have got history and there is often two sides to a story). Is there some team planning for next season in the NotSoElite League

Thanks for clearing that up, Ah the small print

Where`s Dave Stummings the statistian as it seems r/r for NBJ only gets 5 - 7 points a meeting why oh why do we not get a guest like every other team does (Sheffield has r/r for Stead ALL season)

Never been a great fan of Lambert, but tonight was one of if the best performance I have seen at Rye (first meeting 1976). Well done young man.an extraordinary performance.

I remember when Billy Big Shoes joined us I was delighted but Belle Vue fans warned what you have in store, Good luck Sheffield, in time you will need it as well.

"A substantial home win" Im not so sure with Busk, Mellgren and Aspregren the Rockets seem to be built for the big tracks (not like years and years of dross on anything larger than 250 metres), didn't we win twice at Sheffield recently? And despite all the problems at Berwick we would have still never got to 30 in the past.

Well well done Rockets (especially the reserves) bet the journey home doesn't seem half as long now.

A better score than I feared tonight although doesn't that say how low my expectations have dropped. Pleased to see Luke get a few quality points cause we are going to need him tomorrow When they said Danny Massen was a 5 point rider, you all thought it was 5 points per meeting , well infact it is 5 points in total for the season.

Shadders, does Andrew not need to promoters licence to run the Raiders?

Well the reserves seem to be decisions parallel with Fawlty Towers O`Reilly or Stubbs. Sybil "why do you employ O`Reilly Basil?" Basil "because he is cheap" Sybil "he`s cheap cause he no bloody good" Lets hope the legend status is not tarnished and Silver the younger takes over after the splendid way he has run the raiders this season

Ales Dryml as a second string, yes please.

Not sure how to feel about the last two results. Positives Lead at half way stage at Somerset where 30 is normally an achievement Robin is back on early season form Eddie still delivering if only meetings lasted 14 heats Busk find of the season and I feel there is more in the tank not him overachieving at present Negatives No points from either match Boxall, its already been said Injuries as it seems every year Greenwood not ready fro Prem Eddie heat 15

One other fact about tonight Barrett 2.78 is replaced by Sargent 7.36 another night in the crazy world of speedway
