greyhoundp Posted January 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 3 Jobs! so he could get back on Track, well he certainly deserves some luck, anyway MM YOU know the Heathens fans as well as anyone, and if they can see he is trying, YOU know they will get behind him, whilst we may not come up with a main sponsor, i am sure they will come up with bits and pieces, and HSSC does a fair bit with the 50/50 draw.

Main Man Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 anything would be appreciated ..he is a great lad and one with bags of potential.

villiers210 Posted January 18, 2012 Report Share Posted January 18, 2012 Do you have his scores by any chance? Â He also score a fair few at Stoke toward the back end of last season I seem to remember. Although I have never seen him (to my knowledge) he does come highly recommended from our old friend Laurence (or is it Main Man?) and that is good enough for me. After Dan Stoneman had been given the red light, of all the riders that were available with a 3 point average he is probably the most experienced at a competitive level and am looking forward to seeing him no end. Having said all that, lets give the lad a chance to settle in and get round turn 2!!! Â Injuries permitting, I reckon 2012 should be "the year of the Heathen" and we certainly shouldn't be overawed by any of the teams that have been announced as yet. Â Welcome to Dan, BIG thanks to those involved in getting him a ride at Dudley and most important of all -'OMMER 'UM!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

21st century heathen Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Cheers mate. Â So from those meetings his average was 4.20. Take out the nightmare night at BV, which looks/sounds like one of 'those' nights, and it was 5.33. If we split the difference I would be happy if he was averaging around 4.75 at the end of the season. Â So there you go Dan, I've set an unofficial average target for you. Â Will - Loving the profile picture. Two Heathens legendary Team Managers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a long chat on the phone last night and he is getting things in place and needs a bit more sponsorship to get everything set up ---so please let me know if you can help !!

21st century heathen Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 I'm sure you realise that my comment was very much a light-hearted one. What every team needs is strength in depth and average improvement throughout the team, or at the very least from the majority in the key positions. We have that potential and shouldn't need to place unrealistic expectations on Dan. We should only need solid contributions in the reserves' heat and the odd points against his opposite number. Anything else will be a bonus.  I've got my eye on a £40m pay out tomorrow evening. I'll let you know if it comes off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhoundp Posted January 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 I await the announcement later today of the New Riders Coach, to assist Will P the Team manager, and obviously the riders, the word on the social network sites is it could well be Former World champ, and Heathens favourite Jan O Pederson, it is known that he is house hunting in the local area again, if it is, then it can only be good news for riders and team alike, bring it on.

771neil Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Think all the team need some more sponsors not just dan i know ashley does and darryl does and think the rest of the team do to, These are hard time for all even the lads with sponsors aren t getting as much as people think as been said before the managment will pass numbers of any rider on to a possible sponsor.

moomin man 76 Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Good luck to Jan O in his new role. I'm sure that his experience will help benefit each and every rider in the Heathens line-up. Ommer Em! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedwayTShirts Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Ex Cradley Heath star John Wilson who rode for the Heathens alongside Billy Hamill and current World Champion Greg Hancock is back on track this Saturday. Â Wilson is attending one of the popular My First Skid Schools at Leicester Speedway from 10am this Saturday 25th Feb. It's his first time back on a speedway bike for well over a decade so why not pop along and give him a cheer. Â Admission is free of charge and refreshments and food are available. Â As well as the speedway school there is a charity match race taking place between rival presenters Chris Popple and Chris Simpson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trackside Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 I believe that Bekker arrived back into the country yesterday from S.A and will spend the next few days setting up his (new) equipment and is hoping to get some practice in over the weekend.

TonyK39 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 If they start the season with the same race jackets they are wearing in the new photo, Ash is #5, Bekker #4. It's what I hoped for, what about you guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
