  1. Not enough top end power. personally got no interest in having barker back, let himself and teams down last year
  2. I don’t think kemp has a bad attitude, I think he struggles with the mental side of the sport, needs to toughen up his mental fortitude a bit because he has talent.
  3. If Hume didn’t do enough for a reserve spot again this season then that’s just the perfect illustration of everything wrong with this sport. His effort, attitude and points contributions were the only consistent noteworthy performances for the witches all season outside of Doyle. the kid made a huge stride forward this year, absolutely no reason why he can’t do it again, especially if he keeps close to the likes of Doyle and keeps listening to him. sad to see so many people on here knocking lads like Danyon Hume and Connor mountain, we lose so many lads with promise in this sport because they’re not given the support and backing. what kind of a message does it send to lads like Danyon off the back of his best career season if we all turned round and said well done last year but no one wants you now as a senior reserve
  4. Louis doesn’t normally start formally naming names until the whole team is signed
  5. Haha apologies mate, I was replying to the post you had replied to saying he’s 26 injury prone and not going to improve, quoted the wrong post haha
  6. Completely disagree tbh, and part way through the season there was an interview with Doyle in the programme where he said he thinks Danyon could go a lot further in his career because he listens, went on to say the teams been much stronger since he came in for the other guy… clearly made a much bigger impression on Doyle than rowe
  7. Does Hume not get a 25% reduction on his rs achieved average? if he does then you could have Hume in place of Rowe in second proposed team
  8. Happily take him at Ipswich if belle vue don’t want him
  9. At some point last season shamek pawlicki was in talks with Ipswich, was too expensive tho and ultimately Tungate came in. Was keen/interested by all accounts tho so not unimaginable he could be tempted here next season.
  10. Sam masters has always been pretty up front with his dislike of Scunthorpe!
  11. Can’t disagree, think both Adam Ellis and nick Morris could be improvers with Foxhall as their home track and riding with Doyle - both have had some of their best seasons riding alongside him at Swindon. Realistic targets cost wise, add in riss Hume an exciting euro newcomer and another and be a very good season
  12. Holder and musielak already confirmed, I wondered if Ellis may be on the move, time will tell
  13. Doyle kerr riss ellis morris 4 euro newcomer hume Good backup for Doyle, Morris rides Foxhall better than monmore so should be stronger backup for Doyle along with Ellis, again great at Foxhall. Lewi gating ability at 2 with Doyle would produce lots of 5-1’s too imo
  14. Ultimately the main thing you have to have is a no.5 to back up Doyle, then go from there, assume king will be back and hope Danyon is he’s been superb this year. for me I’d start Doyle Zagar riss Danyon and go from there, assume king is back too that adds up to 34.18 without any reductions maybe look at ben cook from Poole and would really like to see a young European newcomer, gusts, salonen, Hansen etc etc good mix of youth and experience, potential in cook and newcomer, and crucially some top end back end for Doyle in zagar
  15. Need a number 5 to back Doyle up, this season has shown that
  16. Doyle zagar/klindt Morris Cook hans kerr hume
  17. Louis and guy Nichols need to hit a big reset button this winter, I’d be going and getting Alan Rossi yet if I’m honest. He been there and done it, always seemed to be a good motivator and him and Doyle enjoyed a lot success together
  18. Tbh, Doyle +6 others and I’ll be getting a season ticket again. He’s absolutely box office, pure class, pure entertainment all season. with summers retiring can see it being the straight swap for Erik back in, still comes under 42.5 agree with baldy above tho would be nice to see some of these young guns from the continent enticed over here, was several on show in the SoN who looked well worth a punt
  19. Maybe they’ll book Adam Ellis to guest and the whole forum can be up in arms about it saying it should be Chris Harris haha
  20. Before the season the belle vue crowd on here were up in arms about how we signed him and allegedly did them dirty after a verbal agreement… wonder if they want to swap him for matej zagar for the playoffs or have they gotten over it?? Haha the frustration with Troy is that he’s not a bad rider, clearly talented and at times this season we’ve seen just how good he can be, but others like this evening he’s looked like he can’t even turn the bike
  21. Josh’s falling off didn’t have much of an impact on result tbh, batch was passing him on that corner anyway hope both the lads ok tho, Jorgensen did really well to get the bike down fast and avoid a much much nastier crash
  22. Batch didn’t make a start all night!? Haha doyle made Grand Prix level starts and if we’re pulling him back for them what we saying about 4 out of 5 of Lawson’s efforts from the gate? Or did we miss his flyers through our rose tinted spectacles?? I think Doyle proved on the track when he did miss the start only to come from back and pass both worrall and Klindt with ease that him being first or last out of the gate made little difference….what lost kings lynn the meeting tonight was klindt messing around in heat 14
  23. Not the first time this season riders have felt Lawson went over the line shutting off trying to slow down a race, there was some afters earlier in the years in one of the pairs meetings, remember Simon stead saying on the podcast he felt Lawson was a bit too naughty on that occasion. Must say I was surprised how angrily Rohan reacted today, didn’t think he was too naughty but I guess in the heat of battle tempers run high! Like the afters tbh adds to the entertainment, also enjoyed Doyle coming and saying to Rohan who cares we won let’s do some wheeelies haha excellent ride from Rohan to secure third and the win tho!
