Why? Not sure what you mean by R/R is not available ? Is that because Wright hasn't taken part in any meetings?

I agree R/R will be the best option in the current circumstance, but we shouldn't have got in to this position in the first place! We could have signed another rider Kemp/Thompson (D) and given Wright more time to heal ? Just have to wait and see, but as Heathen 52 points out, if we get another drubbing, then it's going to hit attendance levels.

If Wright makes an appearance on Wednesday, but finds that he can't continue, does the Guest facility revert back to 100% average for the rest of season, or is the 28 day situation a rolling rule? Reading between the lines, I can't see Wright coming back strong and making an impact....

I haven't dreamt that one! But I think it's a great idea!

So I wasn't dreaming it after all

According to Rogers on the Brum forum, Wright will make a decision next week if he's returning ??? (he also said he was hopeful of Wright returning...) Are we going through smoke and mirrors again?

Made a great start though....he always was a fast trapper! But you're right, he looked uncomfortable...shame...wasted talent!

Looked like Newman got that on the line ?

It hasn't been....please see previous dialogue with 'Hobbit' ! It would however be a 'common sense' move/signing.....(IMO)

We both know that the manager hasn't got the balls to do anything anyway.

I wouldnt call it wishful thinking, as I dont think J.T would improve us in anyway....but I'd much rather pay to watch him give it his all, over a rider that's passed his best and gives up after 2 laps!

I may have got caught up in opinions over facts? that's what happens when you scan the posts etc....

I thought that this post was a 'fact' !? Silly me for thinking the manager was making a wise move for once!

I can't see the manager dumping Nielsen, so it would be just the one place available (for Wright) Not sure what average is left, but as soon as new averages come out, Morris's will drop and we'll have more scope?

Ben Morley would've been a fair shout before we signed Proctor....don't think we'd benefit now that we've signed J.T. at reserve.

I think we're discussing who we'd prefer to see at PB, as opposed to another woeful signing by the man in charge! We obviously (speaking in general terms) would whince at Auty/Morris, or anybody else that has tried and failed. Bottom line is: sign young Brits and help them progress (D.Thompson/D.Kemp) ( meaning we accept the defeats along the way), or sign 2 riders that are going to make us competitive at home ! (at the least)

Fair shout...although it wont improve the team unfortunately. Would rather watch a developing Kemp/D.Thompson

Knowing our manager, we will probably end up with Ashley Morris returning !

Danny Gappmaier was half decent round PB....Matthew Whethers ? Aarnio ?

For sure! Either way it's the 2nd season in a row that we've assembled a poor side! And mistakes are made with tactics in most meetings... Which can only point to one thing?

I disagree... proctor couldve been used to replace Nielsen in a later heat...(just to make the numbers up) sometimes a R/S can be used in a strong race just to complete his quantity of rides...it doesn't have to all be about taking a heat advantage.

And the proof that waiting benefited us???

The TS ia available from heat 5 for a reason.
