Ommer Mon Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 The Dudley Management have said there will be a major rider announcement at next week's meeting against IOW. I wonder what that could be as we have no idea what the League structure will look like next season. Presuming we will still be in the NL, and he qualifies, I'll open the batting with Brady Kurtz, who was brilliant at the Golden Hammer. Who would you like to see?

therefused Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 i thought brady didnt qualify as having uk patriality and therefore isnt eligible to ride in the nl? thats the reason Somerset opted for Nielsen this year instead of him.

Fozzie4388 Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 With the IOW been there, Could it be the return of Tom Perry? Can't see Blackbird or Morris wanting to Ride in the NL next season (if thats were Dudley are staying). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhoundp Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 I will take a wild guess, that it will be the signing as an assett of either Max Clegg or Nathan Grieves, with 2 outside possibilities of either Brady Kurtz or Michael Neill, if its an higher profile rider, who would indicate we are stepping up, then it has to be Royno, much missed by Heathens fans, and that would certainly set tongues wagging with regards British Speedways future..which would i hope for ? well any of them to be honest, but should we finally manage to win the Play Offs, then much as we have enjoyed NL racing, it would be time to step up.

You have been doing this a lot longer than me and, I bow to your superiority. I automatically assumed it would be a signing for next season but the seasoned supporter has read more into the title of 'Big Rider News'. I'll go for Max Clegg.

Bagpuss Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 (edited) I'm sure I read somewhere that Somerset promised Kurtz a place for 2014 when they couldn't fit him in this year? Edited September 19, 2013 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am as intrigued by this as anyone, its very unusual for The Heathens to announce a signing, for the following season, whilst the current season is in progress, normally they like to announce these things to coincide with the local media, so i tend to agree with you that it will be the signing of a current rider,which can only mean as an assett, and young Max has created one heck of an impression, not only with the older fans, but he has his own younger fans who quite simply adore him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 I'm sure I read somewhere that Somerset promised Kurt a place for 2014 when they couldn't fit him in this year? And Plymouth said a few months back they wanted to sign him. Plymouth currently have his brother and a close friend (Rasmus Jensen) in their team.

screm Posted September 19, 2013 Report Share Posted September 19, 2013 Maybe Dudley will announce Paul Starke as the first one on next year list,could fit into either league. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ommer Mon Posted September 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 20, 2013 Maybe Dudley will announce Paul Starke as the first one on next year list,could fit into either league. A good call on Starkie He would be one of the first names on my team list too and, if its NL, then I would get Cleggy and Nathan signed up. Both of them are bound to improve.

pete cc Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 at least that means there will be a team next year, whatever the league set up . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunty Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 at least that means there will be a team next year, whatever the league set up . Makes you wonder where the club is now heading if they can offer a 16year old lad a career in the sport with the Heathens! If i was his father or parents I would have asked where the club was going and if they do have a future in the sport, maybe a new track or heading into a high league in future years to stem young Max's development!
