Hope you are right about Josh, I do not think I have ever seen him ride.

He rode for Scunny early last season and in fact rode in the Scunny/Workington TV meeting where the only thing he did of note was crash. Seems very inconsistent, can beat good guys but loses to some poor riders too. in some respects thats what you want this year. At least he's young and improving, I'm not sure why Starke, Lambert and Smart were picked tbh.

the most id expect from the reserves is 3030 & 2020 at home

to expect anything else is unrealistic, especially at the start of the season

As they're going to go out against the reserves in there other rides 3131 is realistic and as Garrity was averaging 9 in the PL last year he should have the beating of most second strings. He'd have got 6 last year.

fair point! 3131 seems reasonable.

 

just think its unfair to expect any more from these guys they will be under enough pressure as it is without being expected to beat second strings.

im all for this move but think the supporters need to be a bit more realistic in what to expect from them thats all!

Have you forgotten that Rory is now a Kings Lynn asset as they actually paid for him, unlike Belle Vue, so he no longer belongs to Coventry? Anyway, I think Coventry fans are quite happy with Hansen. Been there and done that with Rory.

I'm a bit worried about TNT to be honest. An awful lot of his post recently seem like he's started the Christmas drinks early. He's just not with it.

I think that on this occasion Mick Horton has done an excellent job with the team. Choosing Garrity was a no brainer but very pleased we got Sargeant as well. And the coup de grace getting Howarth from under the noses of Poole. Maybe they shouldn't have dropped him last season. Has the look of a playoff team even at this stage. I particularly wish Scott Nicholls all the best at Belle Vue (whilst agreeing Bomber is the better choice for this year) but won't miss any of the others.

I knew the promotion at Coventry had a strategy in 2013 for 2014! ;) We obviously have the the most astute promoters in Mick & Neil who clearly are the ones that all promotions should aspire to!! :D:D
