Starman2006 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) Who would you like to see then, Had? Rather than scoffing all the time, perhaps you could enlighten us with who your thoughts on the team for 2014. We've got Harris and Hansen, are you happy with that? Ha Ha, Jacques my little Rosebud getting the hump are we.. Edited October 30, 2013 by Starman2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john birch Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 Who would you like to see then, Had? Rather than scoffing all the time, perhaps you could enlighten us with your thoughts on the team for 2014. We've got Harris and Hansen, are you happy with that? Even speculating on team members is fairly pointless given the state of flux the league is in at the moment. Having said that I approve of the Harris signing (should fit in any team permutation - where depends on strength of league). Yes Hansen did look good at Brandonapolis (tho track was v.grippy after the right amount of rain) and bikes were fast. Also if the points limit comes down to 38 riders like that will be like gold dust. But I take issue with Meatloaf when he said two out of three aint bad. Havelock being retained as team manager is unfathomable. We were probably the worst Bees team away from Home since 1975. If Horton thinks he did an acceptable job, then that suggests Horton did a bad job putting the team together in the first place! Also we clearly need a number one that has a higher average than Harris or Nicholls. We need to sign someone with potential after missing out on Bech/Mickelsen/Lebedev/Rosen/Porsing and Cook and Worral. Milik is the obvious one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hans fan Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 (edited) the figure i have heard for hansen is 5.83 we are looking at most 38 maybe 36 for team building... which is why i'm surprised that the bees signed Hansen so quick , not knocking the bloke fantastic to watch in full flow and a nice bloke to boot but he's on a in the middle of nowhere average still has to prove he's good enough as a heatleader ,a average whats a bit steep for a 2nd string esp if the limits 36 ,but I guess unless somebody gives him a chance we'll not know Edited October 31, 2013 by hans fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would Hansen be reassessed? This type of attempted manipulation is exactly what many of the problems/arguments have arisen in recent years. If these games are still to be part of it then Id rather we stay put in the PL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevebrum Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 I have been told Horton is trying to get Hansens GSA reassessed, but on the basis of what he scored at the end of the season it doesn't sound promising. Disgusting. And hope that is thrown out as quickly as it is suggested. There is no reason whatsoever to even consider having Hansen`s GSA looked at or altered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless of course it is increased because his average was gained when the league was more competitive and has been watered down year on year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted October 31, 2013 Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 why? Because it makes sense? (Thank goodness the smilies are back again!) Olly Allen is always getting injured, Summers is rubbish away from Brandon and sometimes there as well. The only one I would query would be Robbo as I like him but what's the point of sticking with riders who contributed to the Bees disastrous season? Need some new faces. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted October 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2013 Riders quite often get re assessed if they don't ride here for a while don't they? I'd be happy with Hansen on 5.8 and Horton must be otherwise it wouldn't be announced so early. This is the type of situation that gives me reservations about my Witches potentially moving back to the EL. Why would Hansen be reassessed? This type of attempted manipulation is exactly what many of the problems/arguments have arisen in recent years. If these games are still to be part of it then Id rather we stay put in the PL. Re assessments happen in the PL too although not to often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
