Blackadder Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Well done to all concerned with arranging a very interesting and potentially exciting Tigers team. All tick - a refreshing new team and team manager; new muck for the track, hopefully bringing the return of Fortess Owlerton; the return of those 2 old stalwarts, team riding and team spirit. Still to tick - progress on a new fence, and a welcoming, friendly sign in the visitors' area of the pits - Welcome To The Jungle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieranb91 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 With the plans i have heard Sheffield will be on it from the first week, they will be hard to beat around Owlerton and hopefully pick up some points on the road, bring on March!!!!

Tsunami Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Â Â Stoke and Buxton fans don't like Josh Bates much either, that's because he always rides his guts out and doesn't know when he is beaten. This makes for some spectacular races, if he is on the race card, expect fireworks. Â I believe Peter Craven started with the same reputation added to regular 'offs'.

AndyK86 Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Finally a team we can be excited about, the new promotion team have done a great job and done as said all along in putting Andre at reserve. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â It seems to me that the most important thing that has been missing for the few years is team spirit. Â Perhaps the major influences to that are Leigh, Simon, Andre and Joe. Their input should be invaluable, particularly to the younger members of the team, as long as they are prepared to listen and learn of course. Â Now how about some news about the fence! and how about some consortium member names! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted January 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Very happy with the team select especially when you consider the head start we gave most teams in the league regarding team building the team is for me competitive. Â Sorry to see our El Tigre Argentino Facu Albin not getting a team place, but who knows maybe one day we will see him return to the club, where there will always be a warm welcome to our Mr Entertainment.

bigeddiechek Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Oooohhhhh, Compton starting at reserve. You guys are going to do a bit of damage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlieboy Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Well done hoggy a team with potential.I think we need to use league cup to get our riders upto speed.With riders coming back from injury and others new to our track any favourable results we get will be a bonus.How many meeting can we expect andre at reserve ? Is the league cup going to count towards averages early season ? Good luck to all the team and lets hope for an injury free season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iand Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Oooohhhhh, Compton starting at reserve. You guys are going to do a bit of damage! How many matches will Andre have to complete before he gets a new average? Is it 3 Home and 3 Away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILKO Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 How many matches will Andre have to complete before he gets a new average? Is it 3 Home and 3 Away?No the rolling averages stay in place, so may take a while, but if Simon starts badly he will drop straight down.

Najjer Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Poor side - bottom half of the table for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you're consistent! Be interesting to see how Somerset go on this year, when you've got your team finalised! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your observations also, albeit incorrect - as it currently stands, Somerset's team is complete and has been for some time.

Bagpuss Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Lots of risk in this side through people coming back from injury but if those riders can get back to their best this team will score big at home every week and be competitive away, a big if though. Reserves look very good but I think Nielsen will struggle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdsalBoy Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Nielsen will be fine, he just needs stability in a strong team - which he will have, and a good injury free run, may surprise a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
