If the "envious eyes" bit was fact then nobody would watch NDL and the like. Yes the Premiership has some top riders but it doesn't automatically make the racing more exciting to watch. There's no denying that watching Vinnie and Tobias was worth the fee.

Not surprised in fact I kinda suspected it, maybe it's time to go professional? He isn't the first motor sport contestant finding themselves in that situation, fine while they come up through the ranks but generally there comes a time for an "awkward conversation". If that is actually what is holding him back let's hope he's had that chat.

Don't think he was plan B, cos apparently he was signed very early on. He was more likely a remnant of the 38 total team. The key to his success will be getting his machinery sorted & maintained, not beyond the wit of man. Maybe finances have been an issue, or possibly misplaced faith in his spanner person.

Plenty of speculation about the last two, but does anyone out there have any idea of when the next official announcement might come?
-
Well I know nothing about him, but from the still photos he looks to have a riding style similar to Ben Cook, low down below the handle bars, great to watch and can be very effective. On the down side also pics of him giving the air fence a hard time.

If it it's Starke then the Fords have dropped a b.llock, it's got to be somebody else surely, my money is still on a continental/aussie. The confirmation of Anders is good, but it's the reserves that's crucial especially considering my (and others) comments about the Glasgow team.

SGB Championship 2025 - Confirmed Signings

Redcar to announce team this evening, Sat 7th. -
Surely it's simply a matter of balance, Glasgow have riders I would have liked to see to see riding for Poole 25 but.....but they also have a big hole come heat 2. So in answer to your question, sure I'm fine, are you really as well as you make out?
-
I was just looking at the "confirmed riders for 2025" thread, and it struck me that no team has yet confirmed a rider on 2. The number 7s so far include the likes of Vinnie and Killeen, making the Pirates apparent choice of employing a 2 look like potentially a risky strategy, bearing in mind that a reserves points are worth the same as a heat leaders.

When you look at the confirmed riders for 2025 one thing is evident... no riders on a average of two so far?! -
Totally agree, I'm feeling confident it's not Starke. Can anyone expand on the returning aussie rumour bit, with some names?

Sedgeman confirmed as Monarchs rider. -
Was curious to see how bad Kerrs injury record was over the last season, so I checked out the league results. He missed 5 meeting and scored zero in two when he was injured. Not too impressive, but maybe it was just a phase he has learnt from?!
-
So that gives 4.32 max for the last rider (assuming Rowe +2). If so it looks like a continental 4 to me.
-
About time we were drip fed the confirmation of another rider I'm thinking.
