Cliffeboy Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Pretty sure it'll be Lambert at reserve and I reckon Kennett would jump at a chance to come back, would be a great confidence boost for him riding PL. Massive backwards step for Eddie surely to return to Rye if he wants to push on in his career. Bad season for him in 2012, don`t make him a bad rider all of a sudden.

Shadders Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) What average would Kennett come to the PL on? 9.50ish Would love to see him back, but I can't see him doubling up at this stage of his career I think Robert Lambert may be to young to be able to ride this year in the PL Could be Simon Lambert that Ben was on about. Robert isn't eligible to race in the PL until April 2014 Edited November 16, 2012 by Shadders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazeaway Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 For me Ed has got about as good as he's ever going to get. Time for him to do a Chris Neath I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Yeah I mean Simon, whilst not a first choice of many he picked up towards the end of the season and is better than any of the three pointers available IMO. As for Kennett, it would benefit him in the same way it has Ben Barker, he'd pick up meetings and valuable earnings without as much expense as he would incur going abroad. He needs a shot in the arm and returning to Rye could be just that for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekker Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 seems a lot of common sense this time, which is unusual, no silly comps and a donation to the aussie scholarship. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phillipsr Posted November 18, 2012 Report Share Posted November 18, 2012 Personally would prefer Bridger over Allen but both genuine number ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I don't think Bridger likes the Rye track too much and as an Eastbourne rider why would he double up with a saturday track?... Personally wouldn't want him in the team. Kennett would be my choice, Olly Allen would also do a very good job. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ash Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Is Nick Morris really the out and out number 1 that's going to score double points at every track home and away as described by Len in the Mercury? Arguably he's also the spectacular rider that Len isn't looking for. Oliver Allen however does fit that description, and if Twitter hints are anything to go by I wouldn't be surprised to see him in the team nor would I be disappointed with his inclusion! He dominated the Premier League a few years back with King's Lynn and I'd say his only downfall is the amount of injuries he seems to pick up. Oliver Allen, Anders Mellgren, Tyson Nelson, Jason Bunyan, Jason Garrity, Simon Lambert and Kasper Lykke? Certainly has the potential to do well IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more I think about it, I don't think you will be far off with the above team. Gives Len a bit of wriggle room with SL in the team to replace with Luke if he is not doing so well, later in the season. If Ollie can stay fit then he can certainly match most of the other number 1's in the PL and as Ash say's he meets the criteria set out in Lens description recently. Taken from BSPA site, Len stated. "Both John Sampford and myself ignored actual points averages and have put together the seven riders best able to bring potential success for the club" In other words, Lisa or Hazel nicked the calculator and we couldn't do the addings up between us, so we chose a team that is about 10 points under the max allowed Edited November 19, 2012 by bolly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
