Local riders over the years have been appreciated at Ipswich so yes i agree Kemp is a talent and i hope he does well for the Witches..
-
Will he though at Ipswich do you guarantee that he has a three year saving grace time of learning his trade will he get the support like Bickley has at Worky.?
-
If i was Drew i would not bother this year keep his options open and next year if the league structure changes he is in a great position.I think he will do well and he loves Ipswich so fingers crossed if he does get a few meetings i hope he does well.

Very disappointed Roman in Ipswich speedway, Louis and Hawkins got it wrong with there top five Connor paid the price.That top five assembled should of been able to give Connor and Danyon ( who was unlucky) time to develope the annoying thing is Garcia is not a world beater sad day hope Connor gets another club would love him to get a chance at Swindon.
-
Would bring him in for Smith Matt he would be useful away as well as last night showed.
-
Are Garcia and Wallinger going to score much more than Mountain and another home and away? Is Garcia that much better than Hume/ Mountain Ipswich had a team that should be able to carry those two reserves but other members let them down.Mountain has been sacrificed i know he has struggled at Foxhall but away he has been decent another average foreigner in Garcia gets a chance and Wallinger well no disrespect what more can you say.

Scunthorpe Scorpions 2018

Connor Mountain could he be fitted in ? or is he to high he has just been released by Ipswich a brutal decision and is to be replaced by Garcia hardly a world beater also Wallinger gets six meetings madness. -

I think having the injuries you have had this year has hurt you more than the reserves and remember Manzares has had a few knocks this year.The team that started the season Worrall,Auty,Garrity,Allen,Nielsen ( an awesome top 5) who would want more than that injuries have taken there toll and guests and R/R have not been ideal. -
Mountain he really has made terrific progress and he will battle hard for every point..I have noticed he has struggled to master Foxhall yet away from home he has been terrific. I feel it is important Premier league teams are made to keep longterm faith with the Brits like Connor,Hume,Bowtell, Bickley (ect) rather than bring in a foreign also rans

No changes i will be happy with this side until the end of the season.If David is out for more than three weeks that is a different story then Rosco might have to have a change of plan.

Belle Vue v Somerset 16/7 BT Sport
Sidney the robin replied to Rob B's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Really looking forward to this it should be a cracker heat 2 looks very interesting a hard one to call.Holder/Summers/Lawson have to be on there game otherwise i can only see a home win saying that i think Somerset can hit the 40 point mark. -
Are Poole’s team changes fair?
Sidney the robin replied to DC2's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I agree totally about the quality of racing at the Abbey it has been very poor for quite along time now.But you prove my point about the entertainment element that needs to be sorted before you worry about the team.Personally i want to see good racing from week to week results are secondary are you happy to win everyweek but be served up with crap racing. -

Sidney the robin replied to DC2's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I don't agree with that to be honest, winning is not everything and personally i don't know anybody who stops going just because of the results.Also Swindon as a whole over the years there crowds have held up pretty well i think the biggest problem for me is the fixture list lack of meetings sometimes up to a month without a meeting.People then get used to not going and find other things to spend there money on often then just picking and choosing there meetings.There needs to weekly racing and the entertainment element should come before winning/losing some people are obsessed with winning i just don't get that part. -
In the top five no he also is a enigma and he is not cheap.
-
No.
-
Hougaard,Barker, Garrity, Kennett are all non starters for me they are not in the mix.
-
Michelson could he be an option Steve ? maybe his old average at Eastbourne is to high for me Auty and another change for Jack might be the way.
-
Could Swindon make two changes now because of David's injury??? annoying really because David was in good form at Belle Vue.

Scunthorpe Scorpions 2018
Sidney the robin replied to IronScorpion's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Really great to see Josh Auty back on track this year 13 double figure scores out of 19 matches pretty good.I just hope he can get a Prem place sorted again next year as he needs that. -
Drew Kemp looks an outstanding prospect but to go straight in at Championship level now is a huge ask.If the league format next year changes and there are loads of two pointers yes that will be fine but as someone else has said the reserves are really strong in the championship now.That is why i think Mountain/Hume are doing ok to average over three because it is a tough league.Drew really looks a great prospect and my hunch is he could cut it but it wont be easy.
-
You make a good point and touch wood he will get there i really hope so anyway because he is a talented lad..Since i have been following speedway Sam Ermolenko( partnered. with Mike Lee) debut season was the most dangerous rider i have ever seen and look how Sam turned out.Also Malc Holloway a stylish rider had endless crashes over his career but he was technically good so some crashes are unfortunate.Fingers crossed for Danyon but as you said he has to quickly learn from his experiences.
-
Would you have said that to Rory ? would you have said that to Adam Roynon even going back farther in time Nigel Boocock.Injuries are a part of speedway that is really tough to take at times but we should all stick with Danyon he will get through and be stronger for it.It is great that he has Chris/ Richie both ex riders who understand the game to support him hope Danyon has a speedy recovery.
