  1. Brooks signed for MFT, and expect Andrews and Wilson to be announced at Plymouth shortly too.
  2. It's easy to overlook how young these lads are.
  3. That's a far comment. But I honestly think both will end 2019 on averages 7 plus.
  4. I believe some of the reports were more favourable towards the end of the season.
  5. He only got the 2.50 from 2 league meetings so will start on 2.00, Sheppard comes in on 2.01 as previously had a 3.0 average. I wasnt sure so asked Mattie Bates
  6. Currently doesn't have a team..... pretty certain you will see him in the NL though.
  7. Edwards on 6.73 is not a bargain in my opinion. Similar level to Spooner but 2 points dearer.
  8. Untill we know the make up of the rest of the team it is hard to speculate on number 1s My personal choice would be Drew Kemp if we have the points available
  9. How can you quantify development potential. Let's not forget he is younger then a top 8 gp star. He had never ridden a lay down engine until the Laurels. So I am Looking forward to watching him develop.
  10. I think the gap from NL to 3nd tier has proved too big for many in recent years, so if anythingvthe NL needed strengthening to allow top prospects to get up to 2nd tier. The only league that needed altering was the 2nd tier, it was too close to top tier and too far ahead of the third tier.
  11. I believe if all had gone to plan the line up would have included at least 1 probably 2 of Armo,Clifton,Hurry.
  12. It's has not been publicly announced, I think the announcement about that and other various "tweeks" to the rules is due in January. But I have had it from the horses mouth, ie Promoters and Managers of 3 different clubs that the rule is in effect.
  13. Be pretty shocked if we sign any 2018 eagles after this year's hostilities. I know Richard Andrews was a rider on many fans lips towards the end of the season, with some all action points scoring performances against Kent at CP and as a guest at Buxton. also I hope we give serious consideration to Jamie Couzins who has been awfully loyal to the club other the years.
  14. One thing I am pretty sure of is that the failed planning will affect what the management had planned team building wise.
  15. Armo, Bowen, Hurry, Clifton all ruled out as only 1 rider who has obtained a 2nd tier average of 4 at some point in their career (even if that rider obtained that average 1/4 of a century ago when there was no third tier). With Monday's looking most likely now JT cones back into the frame. I d like to see Kemp Ablitt Spooner plus one other personally.
  16. That is a very good start to team building tbf
  17. Before I write this off as a lost cause, is anyone driving out to this with a spare seat?
  18. Getting a bit concerned about availability of tickets. Be soul destroying to do a 20 plus hour coach trip to watch it on TV.....
  19. Hi mate, I d be interested in the model mate, an certainly be interested in knowing any other bits you have available.
  20. Rather then drastic changes, Len has slowly built up the camber. He has hinted at major track work over the winter so will be interesting to see what he does. Although he is pretty busy till the ski season finishes.
  21. The racing at Kent has improved year on year, when you get four confident riders going at it, the action can be breathtaking. Obviously you get the odd boring meeting, but that's usually on an excessively hot day when the track is slicker.
  22. I think of all the National League teams the step up to 2nd is less risky to Brum. I think they are more set up for the step up then Eastbourne(who I think will step up comfortably as well).
  23. I saw an article saying a 3 person consortium was interested pending events at the AGM. The 3 gentlemen were not named though.
