wjm Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Be interesting to see if Proctor can meet that assessed average, I like him as a rider, he is an entertainer, but he has his limitations IMO, doubling up/down will help him. But I don’t know if he is good enough from the gate often enough to carry that sort of average, 8.5ish might be a bit more realistic. Decent enough side though.

Halifaxtiger Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Ben Reade will be the last reserve if the paperwork goes through for the yank. Good team that. Will be a lot nearer the top than bottom of the league. Agreed It'll depend a bit on how the Yank and Reade settle in (Ben definitely deserves a shot) but it looks very well balanced indeed.

Main Man Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Not sure about Manzares,tbh. He went on the Aussie tour a few years.Homesick after a few weeks.Also got a bit aggressive threatening one and all with his martial arts skills. Hope Im wrong,but have my doubts.Will be at rsserve once the first set of new averages come into play. gino has grown up a lot. He was a model rider last year on the tour and an example to his team mates. Now a dad as well ....lot of potential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaramanga Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 from what i saw of gino manzares when he was over here 2 or 3 year ago he looked a very promising rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Decent side from Plymouth there, seeing as they started team building a bit later than others. Good solid side, with a bit of potential aswell, will be top half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDuke Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Given how late the team was put together I think it's a solid looking outfit. Wish the Devils all the best for 2013 - good to see and read so many positive comments from their supporters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I think that everything is looking so much better at the SBA. It's great what a bit of positivity can do. UP THE DEVILS!!! (except at Newcastle ). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinionated Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 My only criticism is the lack of Brits. When talking with Seemond in his riding days,he was adamant that Brits should be given chances over foreigners. If he 'owned' a track,he would ensure his team would be mainly Brits. Same goes for Ashley,who was uber critical of Bowdens use of non Brits. I appreciate how late they took over,but sincerely hope that we see a 'Brit' influence in future teams.

ancient mariner Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 After being in despair about a month ago, things are really looking up for us Devils supporters now. More power to the consortium's collective elbow. :approve: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And i would't go for Reade, i don't know if Max Dilger has signed for anyone yet, but thats the other reserve i would go for, was a match winner when he came down with Redcar, 13+3 two wins and two paid wins in that, Reade gives everything but not to sure if he is up to PL standard yet Edited December 22, 2012 by Devildodger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted December 22, 2012 Report Share Posted December 22, 2012 Well, I am really pleased for all Plymouth fans. Having got rid of the guy who was trying to destroy what he had built, you now have local folks who know the task ahead of them, which should get those fans back that couldn't take any more with Mike. They know improvements to the facilities and the safety items have to be tackled, they have bought the club and have a new lease, they have more relevant experience with the promotion ranks to make this takeover very successful and now have signed a team that will entertain and win meetings. I have high hopes for the future of Plymouth and it must be great to be a Plymouth fan after what has gone before. Never been to Plymouth yet, but will be down next year with HalifaxTiger, and meeting up with Bob C and their mates. Looking forward to it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the Bears fans were amazed as he had done nothing before that meeting and did nothing after, either at home or away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
