dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 So we should drop Koppe who's performed better than Knight and scored more in 1 meeting than Jake has in all of his meetings for Sheffield? Get real. Probably not but a foreigner in on a 5 should stay on a 5. If they are not good enough to maintain that average then they shouldnt be here or the team takes the hit until they can meet 5+. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king junior Posted June 10, 2013 Report Share Posted June 10, 2013 Probably not but a foreigner in on a 5 should stay on a 5. If they are not good enough to maintain that average then they shouldnt be here or the team takes the hit until they can meet 5+. Well that's your opinion. But in the real world we have a 5 point foreigner who looks like he's finally finding his feet. If people think we're really going to drop a better rider down to nationality, then they're incredibly deluded. Personally, I think Knight isn't ready for Premier league yet and needs to take a step back before he can start moving his career forward. He's shown promise, but we haven't got time to give him time to give him more meetings where he's under performing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Adam Roynon was to replace Jake Knight they would still have 4 Brits in their team. Not many of teams in the top two leagues who can beat that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMW Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 Lawson ,Howarth, Mills and the fab Ashlet Morris. who is having a good spell a t the moment thats fower..4.. You have hit the nail on the head with Morris. He has been given time and time is the key. Too much focus on high scoring reserves to cover for underperforming H/L when they should be performing !!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted June 11, 2013 Report Share Posted June 11, 2013 BRITISH SPEEDWAY : PREMIER LEAGUE Last Updated: Jun 11th, 2013 - 10:37:57 Glasgow Speedway: Red revolution opens door to recovery for speedway's unluckiest man ADAM Roynon admits his loved ones never knew what kind of person he would be when he woke from the horror crash which shocked speedway. But as the 24-year-old prepares to continue his comeback to the sport in Glasgow on Sunday, he revealed how he'll keep "loosening the screw" in search of glory. Cumbrian Roynon's past racing injuries include breaks to his neck, back, both arms, legs and ankles, with his 2012 season also ending with a trip to A&E. Then in March, he was struck to the head by fellow rider Josh Auty's bike after coming off his own brakeless machine while riding for Coventry in Britain's Elite League. The incident, which knocked him out cold, saw him treated on track for more than 40 minutes before he spent nearly a fortnight in hospital. But remarkably, the resilient rider is back on a 500cc bike again and lines up in Glasgow on Sunday in a top-class field for individual meeting the Red Revolution Open. Roynon, who started his Premier League career racing for Glasgow Tigers in 2005, said: "A head injury is a serious injury no matter what, and at the time, they didn’t know how I was going to wake up from it. "I woke up and was fine. My memory’s been a bit dodgy in the early stages, but the fact I’ve recovered really quickly has been a good showing of my fitness and of my determination." The former Leicester man will make a decision after this weekend on whether he is ready to return to team racing, with Glasgow - who are currently seeking new faces - among his potential suitors. © Copyright Worldspeedway.com Top of Page © Copyright Worldspeedway.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
