Shanes won't sign full time because of grasstrack and longtrack at weekends, and Embleton will never be able to travel as much as he needs to, doesn't even have a van as far as I know, I suspect he's for mostly home meeting and the odd away one Plus, I'm pretty happy now with Connor and Ben, just nice to be able to pull James out of the hat during the week every once in a while

Said that a few times, but people just called me mad lol... And I think I know who I'd get rid of if I was being... Ruthless... (How's Matej's leg nowadays?) On another note, I think Ben Hopwood looked good, he led heat 14 for a couple of laps, even though he did hold Ludvig up a bit, very impressive and didn't look like falling off... Glad to see local lad Josh Embleton get signed for number 8, wonder if George is thinking about using Josh at home and Connor away instead of dragging Connor up from Eastbourne every weekend... Was hoping the news would be the other way around, Connor on weekends and number 8 James Shanes during the week But unfortunately... No Glad to hear that Danny Phillips seems to be getting better, put my fiver in the collection, and I hope many others did too Welp..... Tero signed for Scunthorpe so what was going through my head is out the window now

.

So, can someone explain why Robert got the name Rocky tonight from Roy (Other than the fact that Roy's a c*ck)

Get a couple of riders interested and signed up, announce the meeting and then fill in the blanks after...

That is a great shame, I remember hearing not long before he got injured of rumors that he was going to return to Newcastle Good luck with the rest of your life Kenni, maybe you will be back later on down the line

I'd personally have Connor at 7 and Ben at 6, Connor needs them races against the other team's number 7 to boost his confidence and he's more likely to beat him than the other riders our number 6 would be against Let's not forget that Ben Hopwood rode for Poole a few seasons ago!! And he seems to have started very well in the NL this season, he's been around the sport for a few years now so hopefully he can kick on in the CL and give Connor a few tips too!!

I wish they'd do the old EL format, with two reserves races, and when the reserves are against the main body, it's just second strings, if they keep going with the weak reserves, they should do this anyway

Good to hear that he's a gutsy rider, I like riders who give 110% all the way through the race, like Schramm did, or Wilkinson and Morris do now, I hope he gets of to a good start The bald bandit would be a good nickname Does anyone have any idea which number he'll get? Will he go to 6 and Connor to 7, or will he just take Danny's place at 7? Hope to see Connor at 7 tbh... Gives him more chance of points Ah, scratch that, I've got his nickname..... BigBen Knowing Roy's originality... That's probably what it'll be

Ben Hopwood is an ok signing, don't get me wrong, reminds me of when we signed Schramm or MIlls for some reason, but I was just wondering when the last time he rode Brough was @Tsunami Hope Connor can step up a bit... Not that I think people should expect him to yet, but he needs to...

That's a positive sounding sign

Hmmmmm, at least he's kinda experienced? Might help Connor out, when was the last time he rode Brough out of curiosity?

Don't think Lindgren would go, and I really don't want him to And as much as I like Morris, and how much he's impressed me so far, 2 of either Carr, Morley or Ayres for Morris and Phillips would be a good option in my opinion I was kinda hoping at the beginning fo the year that Payne would sign for us anyway, quite like watching him, so I'd like that also 1. Robert Lambert 2. Liam Carr 3. Lewis Rose 4. Ludvig Lindgren 5. Steve Worrall 6. Lee Payne/Danny Ayres/Morley 7. Connor Coles Or maybe when the new averages come out Morris can stay at number 2? Wonder if his and Danny's average will go up high enough to swap Phillips and Morris for Ayres and Jacobs? I dunno, they'd both (Morris and Danny) would have to have reached over 9.06 combined... Which doesn't look likely

Didn't even think that Nathan would sign for Ipswich since he rode for the Isle of Wight... I see, I can definitely see that happening, but I, as well as many others, don't want to see the top 5 changed... But sometimes you need to make sacrifices...

I've had many thoughts..... Which one? xD Ehhh, kinda agree, kinda disagree, just couldn't think of another 5-6 point rider other than Jacobs Well..... That's Nathan Greaves out the window..... Well done Ipswich

Can't see us getting much from this, hopefully a point? Robert is an ex Panther as well Engine Failure..........

Ahhh, thanks very much, be interesting to see if George waits until after the averages come out to do a team change... Nothing to lose I guess as Danny will be 2.00 either way I would imagine

Yup, I agree, wouldn't really want Boxall in the team, I'm just more curious to what his CL average would be... I dunno when the new averages come out, but if we move before the new averages come out I am just suggesting what I'd do, good job I'm not the promoter Eyy... I really wouldn't want to change the rest of the team either, but with weak reserves getting weaker now we've lost Danny, what choice do we have if we don't want to keep watching 5-1s all the time against them (no disrespect) Maybe I AM mad And yes, it'd be a HUGE loss, but I want to see strength in depth, personally, just my opinion, Ludvig struggled to make the step up to 2nd heat leader in a league stronger than it is now and he's been going good this year, home AND away, and Lewis is already our third heat leader... I was just throwing a suggestion out there James Shanes probably would ride for Ipswich and has Grasstrack commitments on a weekend so I believe, I think that's why he's a guest replacement for Ipswich, so that they can use other people on a weekend? I dunno... Tom Brennan is only 15 as well so I believe? If we were going to do something like that we might as well go for Kyle Bickley considering he's from up north, but I think he's too young too Does Robert Mear still ride? He doesn't have a team either... And a 5.11 average, which seems quite a bargain

Awful Awful news Get well soon Danny, please have a speedy recovery as you were stepping up big time in my opinion As a replacement, will Nathan Greaves get his 2.32 average from last year reduced? And if so, would it fit below the 2.19 we'd have left if Danny was out of the team... Other options I'd like to see would be Dan Halsey, Darryl Ritchings, Dan Greenwood, Ben Wilson, Luke Bowen (Although I have a feeling the two before has old, high averages), Georgie Wood or Henry Atkins (Assuming he's old enough, not 100% sure) Ryan Burton (Since he does a lot of 2nd halves) But there ARE options there, please don't use guests I don't think Josh Embleton would be good enough/be able to afford to travel to all these places as often as they are expected to Also, not a suggestion, but what average would Steve Boxall come in on? Gonna be really controversial here, all I'm gonna say is that it would sort out our reserve problem straight away and it would let Robert focus elsewhere with his EXTREMELY busy schedule, 2 teams in England, 1 in Sweden, 1 in Germany AND Poland..... Very busy boy, maybe on Sunday's too, he's already said Germany comes before England... 1. Steve Worrall 8.47 2. Nicolai Klindt/Joe Jacobs/someone else? (5.59) 3. Lewis Rose 5.97 4. Tero Aarnio 5.30 5. Ludvig Lindgren 7.69 6. Ashley Morris 4.98 7. Connor Coles 2.00

It's all good Haha

xD Oops... HE?

1. Nick Morris 2. Jye Etheridge 3. Kevin Doolan 4. Liam Carr 5. Nick Morris 6. Danny Gappmaier 7. Lee Payne Longest tail I have ever seen in speedway..... Hopefully they make another change later when the new averages come out...

I thought riders had the same Premiership average as their Championship average? e.g. Danny King 9.57 in both leagues... Why isn't Howe the same? Can someone explain?

Phillips has impressed me so far this season (I've only been to the home meetings though) I understand, we're still weak at reserve, but Danny so far, has done well in my eyes, and I'm sure Connor will soon fallow

Really hope Josh Bates is ok and hasn't injured himself, made the best effort I have ever seen to get off the track just to collapse in a pile... And that was when we were on a 5-1, he could have stayed down, but he didn't Also all I want to say is WELL DONE DANNY PHILLIPS!! And good effort from Connor, never gives up and has a nice style, once he gets dialed in at Brough, he could be a good reserve Track wasn't at it's best yesterday, although I can't say anything because I'm not the tractor man...
