Never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large group !!
-
Apparently if neither team owns the rider then it goes on which team declared their full team first !! (New one on me) This is quote from S Star and regarding Redcar having first call on Stuart Robson over Coventry. So looks like you could be in luck

You couldn't afford our rates

Peterborough Panthers 2015

Interesting that Peterborough press release is now shown under Elite League Clubs Think this team might struggle in the top league -
Think you may mean panic loan, from previous statements Berwick not about to buy anyone
-
I do genuinely believe he will improve - by how much?? that is the real question? He should be a 4 - 5 point rider, given decent machinery and if he learns to stay on board and avoid suicidal passing attempts. I can understand your view because on a lot of occasions I watched him he was awful - but at back end of season there were signs of improvement.
-
Pleased to see you have been enjoyed the Christmas festivities already I am hoping for improvements, but perhaps not on the scales you are suggesting !!
-
On currently declared riders I'd bet anyone Redcar would beat Berwick, Newcastle & Plymouth

I see in press release Ty says he isn't doubling up and had to choose between Wolves & Sheffield - I am reading too much into choice of words?? To me it implies he isn't allowed to double up - maybe he is on a visa that restricts to only one employer ( as per Doyle last year), that may also be why Demark league is on agenda? May be totally off the mark, but happy to be corrected -

I concur, only issue maybe if Proctor doesn't ride in UK at all in 2015 - for whatever reason. Not suggesting anything, but do find it strange no announcement has been forthcoming, seems one of the easier deals to complete - is there a problem?? -
The "UKBA" may well have known - to clarify I was suggesting announcement may not have been made to try and avoid 'everyone' becoming aware what had been going on, and therefore saving their reputation (yes I know some will say what reputation!!)

Apologies if I'm missing something obvious, but can anyone explain why that system has any logic to it?? Which is NL - so who now gets priority?? -

Same as previous posting - neither own Blackbird hence Peterborough get priority (there was something about rearranged fixtures and fixtures already in place, so odd occasions may be different) This is why Lakeside were so keen to get Lawson as their asset last year, but as is obvious to everyone now, it was a totally contrived transfer - to stitch Redcar up ! (Am I bitter and annoyed - YES !! - but what goes around comes around and life moves on - ) -
Just a thought - If , as has been suggested, the correct figure issued by immigration has been 7 for a number of years, and BSPA chose to ignore this and effectively "break the rules" would they want to have an official statement issued by them, containing the news that they are "changing" to implement and abide by a ruling which should have been in place for a number of years. Maybe this is why no "official" statement has been issued, and is not likely to be - it looks to me like BSPA were trying to get this in place without any fuss - well that worked well - didn't it !

Strong rumour is Dilger and Danny Phillips for reserve slots -
His stint with you was excellent! Now on what I believe to be a totally false average, don't think he will be a PL heatleader over a full season, but certainly got the talent to have a lot of good meetings and if he should drop to reserve will give strength there. Bring on the scorpions - we'll be looking to "gently pat" their butts
-
His options are getting very limited - I would say Edinburgh is Cook & Masters - leaves you, Bandits, Glasgow and Peterborough ??
-
From a neutral's point of view - I thought your first signings for top 5 were ok, and gave a solid base - however Covatti and Nielsen at reserve, for me, have turned it from an ok team to a very strong side, got to up there near top challenging Both of reserves have been mentioned on Bears forums as potential signings - primarily with the aim of completing top five, so for you to have both at reserve - well done to Ipswich promotion. Good Luck for the season ahead
-
Not a Theme Park planned aswell
-
Hotel - to go with the golf course
-
or maybe they see a development opportunity - you know new houses or a big superstore
-
Is he related to Eduard Krcmar from Czech republic
-
I agree with you, unfortunately a vast majority of "fans" want to see team winning and if you got hammered they would stop. Anyhow - top marks for innovative thinking - (don't see it happening mind get ready to cheer Harrison, Pjiper, Hall & Dilger )
-
Agreed - only problem with a 3.00 youngster is team is then looking even weaker and if league cup is deemed meaningless crowd will the 10 stalwarts plus trackstaff !!
