  1. For sure, think it was only a consideration if they were otherwise forced away from thursdays, championship on a Thursday was always Louis first choice I believe
  2. Still think despite the footy picture, Connor is to miss out in terms of numbers, Jenkins and Hume to be reserve pair allowing maximum amount for 1-5
  3. Would Scott really pick lakeside over Ipswich???
  4. Perhaps, although I think with Louis being quoted as saying hes not looking to rip apart team from this year the proposed teams put forward arent far past the mark. Suppose it will be Scott Danny Cam Nico Kyle Danyon Jordan Only way Gino could displace someone there is if he was say suffienciently lower than Kyle to also accommodate greaves in place of one of the two reserves....hes not so falls foul of the numbers game. Hope to see him riding in uk next year tho, along with some of the other young up and coming Americans! No way Cameron Heeps isnt in the team
  5. Gino manzares 4.18...... Has always done ok in the SWC at Lynn Dont know nielss average but 4.18 would leave 9.03 he may just fit in that!!??
  6. Bates is very good at building speed on fast tracks, dont think hed take long to get dialled in at nss, would be a good rider for Belle Vue. Still think its a shame no one seems to be considering Jacobs....quality at the nss
  7. Gino says on twitter tonight although wished to be back at Ipswich we couldnt fit him in...numbers game.
  8. Does anyone know if British riders still get a 2.5% reduction??
  9. I think youve misinterpreted this paragraph, I interpreted is if in top flight half the teams can all ride at home on the same night then surely they could do the same in championship on a Friday as its not clashing with the prem! If its good enough for top league should be good enough for champ too! Hes not suggesting half champ clubs ride same night as prem
  10. Kennett can go very well at Foxhall but blows too hot and cold, need more consistency from heatleaders than he offers, rory for example this year rarely scored less than 8/9 away from home on tracks he hasnt been to for years - not much help getting 17 one week and 2 the next!
  11. Yep Rory lower average than Scott 👍🏻
  12. That lineup would mean Kyle at no.2 which is a strong rider in that position, also likely to be with nicholls most of the season whos a better team rider than Danny, whereas riding at 5 Dannys primary focus is beating opposite number and hoping reserve beats reserve rather than team riding a no.2 home. Should mean more 5-1s from 1-2 and still plenty of 4-2 from 5-7, cam and nico powerful 3-4 pairing, if cam maintains this seasons level and increases his away consistency could easily put another point on! Both danyon and Jordan would make a mockery of their starting averages, much like this year only thing holding it back would be injuries!!
  13. Perhaps but has averaged into the 5 and a half range previously, decent no.2 and a strong reserve! Plenty of people putting Doolan in potential lineups for you....cant see any improvement there!
  14. It was a reply rather than a tweet so just need to click on tweets and replies at the top of his page. When asked if any truth in rumours of a uk return this year he responded - news to me, no Im doing the same as this year 👌🏻
  15. Would like to see you guys give joe Jacobs another go...was fantastic around the nss...
  16. Surprised no one including joe Jacobs in any teams...was improving somewhat by he end of his short stint with you, surely good value on a 4.67....decent rider on big fast tracks
  17. Rory returned to ride in Poland second half of this year and has a contract to ride for rzeszow with Hancock next season.
  18. Think theres more improvement and confidence in Hume and Jenkins, however Connor has shown steady progress in the second half of the season, lots of potential, if hes not in the witches frame would fancy him for Peterborough, hes looked good around there as a visiting rider
  19. They absolutely have the choice to themselves as to where they may want to ride, cam himself has been quoted at the end of the season that this year has been his most enjoyable of his career....also cant see that Sheffield are gonna be able to offer a lot more money than Ipswich are, attendance levels and our main backer mean things are fairly rosy in the ippo camp 👍🏻
  20. really can't see heeps not being back with us at ipswich, he's an ipswich asset - had a fantastic season - more improvement to come.....however having been to sheffield this year and seen him ride your track can understand why you'd want him in the team!!
  21. i put down 2 team suggestions, one with nathan at reserve and another with a slightly stronger 1-5 and IMO danyon and jordan the best two available 2 pointers for next season
  22. Hard to disagree with most of this! I do think porsing has always ridden very well at Foxhall tho and with some stability could make a mockery of his average! I just feel with Kyle he overturns too much and scrubs his speed off, leaves him vulnerable to a high side - something weve seen sadly happen and cause injury too often this season! Often when out in front and supposedly cruising too! All this being said injury free Kyle is a far better rider than we saw this season and I wouldnt be unhappy to see him line up again next year 👍🏻
  23. Decent looking team also....I dont think Ipswich is kyles best track tho and think we could get more value for his average.... Campton 5.74 Porsing 5.67 - converted prem 2017 average dont know if older champ average would still count after last years messing about with them? Manzares 5.43 BWD 5.92 Mark Riss 5.76 Would actually really like to poach Erik Riss from Edinburgh on 8.08 goes well at foxhall
  24. Rory Schlein 8.58 Gino manzares 5.43 Ty proctor 7.38 Cameron heeps 6.93 Nico covatti 7.49 Nathan greaves 4.51 Danton Hume 2.00 42.32 Or Danny king 8.87 Gino manazares 5.43/mason campton 5.74 Cameron heeps 6.93 Nico covatti 7.49 Rory Schlein 8.58 Danyon Hume 2.00 Jordan Jenkins 2.00 41.00/41.31
  25. There we have it then, staying in the championship, staying on Thursdays, Double points scrapped tactical substitute back! 👍🏻 Let the team building discussion begin! 42.5 team limit
