Chris Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Scott Nicholls© Chris Harris Edward Kennett Lee Richardson Simon Stead Reserve-David Howe Good selection by Middlo. Howe has proved what everyone thought, that he's not upto it after his performances in the GP qualifier and at Cardiff where he was outclassed. Stead need to pull his finger out though. Fancy us to get through at Cov if Stead performs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob B Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Stead rides well round Coventry. Has beat Nicholls last couple of times there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbin' Along Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 I'm not all together sure I would have picked Chris Harris - after all his form's been poor recently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Schumi Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Stead need to pull his finger out though. Fancy us to get through at Cov if Stead performs. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Seems to be the one tournament he ups his game for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Middlo is having a laugh surely? Kennett at Brandon? Oh Dear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 As I predicted a couple of months ago, Eds position wouldn't be the one in question when the team was named. If anyone thinks that team can be improved by any other rider then it should make for some comedy reading. Hang on what about Olly Allen? Haha.

Silver Bee Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Olly Allen has been fantastic around Brandon this year. He'd be well worth the place as reserve but not instead of Howe, who has already ridden Barndon brilliantly this year. Kennett was woefull.

SCB Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Jesus Chris. Who allows this guy to pick the team? Has he ever seen Ed at Brandon? Has he seen David at Brandon this year? David should be in ahead of Ed and Simon on current form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagonshocker Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Irrespective od whatever track its at its THE team that middlo wats and clearly rates...best he can do in my opinion ...harris nicholls and rico pick themselves and steady and eddie k are the 2 natural talents with futures....deffo correct...and howe showed his level at cardiff no disrespect Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Got to say that I find the fact that David Howe at reserve a surprise, with Kennett not too hot around Brandon, Steady just back from injury, surely Howe was worthy of a full place.

Chris - So you were not impressed by his GP Qualifiying score or the 4 points he scored at Cardiff ? How much did Stead and Kennett score in the Qualifiers ? Why was Howe riding at Cardiff and not Stead or Kennett ? With the round at Coventry, I would have used Oliver Allen ahead of Stead as he has been brilliant over the last 18 months.

seanisnumber1 Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Why was Howe riding at Cardiff and not Stead or Kennett ? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because Howe managed to beat Kennett in the British one off race final around his OWN track maybe!!

Seb the Snail Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 I must admit that I'm surprised to see Stead in the side for this one. I don't know too much about how he rides Brandon, but he's definitely not having a good season and his poor form clearly continued at the GP Qualifier at the weekend. At the risk of agreeing with stevebrum, I'd have opted for David Howe, with Olly deserving the reserve berth. I can't wait to see Rico on the big stage again either; Cardiff just wasn't the same without him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newbieoldboy Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Good team but cant help feeling that Eddie and David are that way round because Eddie rides for Poole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Think the lineup is spot on, with perhaps the only doubt over Stead. Can't belive some on here think Kennett shouldn't be riding! The lad is the best young British talkent we have and should have been one of the first names down after Nicholls and Harris. He is destined for GP stardom in the next three years and his form this year is brilliant. No disrespect to Allen but he isn't at the same level even if it is his home track. Would be just left standing and has little passing ability. Eddie on the other hand is the total package in the making and can gate and pass. Stead or Howe? Tougher one here. DH is on good form and its good to see. Stead really hasn't stepped up to the mark this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beesboybert Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Stead normally goes round Brandon well, but his form must be a bit of a doubt. Howe has had a good season, and in my opinion should be in the team, with Eddie at reserve especially after seeing them at brandon this year. But thats the team that Middlo has picked so lets stop all thw squablling and get behind the boys!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Witch Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 David Howe should be in there without question as he is on form the third best English rider this year.

Hazzman Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 Simple if Stead or Kennett start off badly - after two rides - bring in Howe as reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
