Roland Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Anton Rosen And possibly! Could easily get to No.1 but 'big hitting' doubtful? I might be wrong, and I appreciate its easy for me to say, but Chris Mills will need to not fall off, not come last and get quicker kit to get nearer 5?

Catch Me If You Can Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Without wanting to sound flippant either, who's that then??? Without wanting to sound flippant (again) is that really going to happen??? No Ipswich? Apols I totally forgot? Yes I think will not be far away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevePark Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) Without wanting to sound flippant either, who's that then??? Anton Rosen That is who I was thinking of! Could easily get to No.1 but 'big hitting' doubtful? I did say "in my opinion" and "potentially." But from what I've seen, I honestly believe he could be 9 -10 pt man in PL.

Shadders Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 I'm rubbish at these things, even more when not all the sides have declared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIAMONDS Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) I think Newcastle have a good number 1 in Rosen but I don't think he is a big hitter, YET! (maybe in 2015 ) But what is good about Newcastle is they have 5 riders all being capable of being a heat leader in Lindgren, Rosen, Kerr, Robson and Henry. And two reserves who are capable of upping their average in Schramm and Rose. I am confident in our team and I hope for a good 2014 campaign. My top six would be (in no particular order) 1. Newcastle 2. Workington 3. Ipswich 4. Peterborough 5. Scunthorpe 6. Redcar But I also think Somerset and Glasgow would be in the mix also.

phillipsr Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Workington Somerset Newcastle Peterborough Glasgow Rye House Honestly cant see the fuss with Ipswich. Alot depends on Risager and hes never done anything great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Workington Somerset Newcastle Peterborough Glasgow Rye House Honestly cant see the fuss with Ipswich. Alot depends on Risager and hes never done anything great I disagree - I see Morten as the steady middle man and nothing more which Im sure he will do. The keys are Rohan showing he could challenge as a no1 and Adam kicking on as hoped IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot depends on Risager and hes never done anything great Does it?? I'd say very little depends on Risager to be honest. As for the "fuss" with Ipswich, I wasn't aware there was any!

Tom Thumb Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 (edited) I might be wrong, and I appreciate its easy for me to say, but Chris Mills will need to not fall off, not come last and get quicker kit to get nearer 5? I'm sure nicki pedersens gear will be quick enough I think it was rolling chassis' only that he got from Nicki. I think top 6 teams may be in no particular order: Scuthorpe, Newcastle, Workington, Ipswich, Peterborough & Berwick.

I'm sure nicki pedersens gear will be quick enough I might be wrong, but surely Super Nicki's kit is wanked out at the end of the season and what's more it wasn't that quick in the first instance....that's why he doesn't want to use it anymore!! I disagree - I see Morten as the steady middle man and nothing more which Im sure he will do. The keys are Rohan showing he could challenge as a no1 and Adam kicking on as hoped IMO. Totally agree, Morten has got the ability, could surprise a few? My keys are both Rohan and Camo, both of whom could push on and challenge for the number one slot? Top 6 Worky, Scunny, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Redcar and...................The Mighty Witches (who many forget were one heat away from coming top last year before the wheels fell off completely.

Schramm is unlikely to raise his average (much as I love watching him). Rose is a totally unknown quantitiy. I also suspect Robbo and Henry will lose a few tenths. It's a good team but not a league/playoff winning one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the old morten might come good line again, people have been saying this for years, and it never happens, and next season ain't gonna be any different. What he is though in this league is as has been stated, a middle order man of between 6.5 to 7.0. Sometimes a match winner and sometimes can score very few. Most teams have them.

Whats up, sour grapes as Chris chose Worky over Ipswich !!! Expensive bikes then if they are ""wanked out"" as you call it . Chris is trying to cut it in the PL whereas Nicky P cutting it as a Grand Prix rider. Slight difference Chris has started getting sponsors onboard this season, in the gym and to be fair is one the most decent 3point reserves in the PL . Nice top 6 though, and those will be the Mighty Witches that The Mighty Comets screwed over in the playoffs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 I'll go with Workington, Scunthorpe, Ipswich, Peterborough, Berwick and Somerset Followed by Sheffield, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Redcar, Glasgow, Rye House and Plymouth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DIAMONDS Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 Schramm is unlikely to raise his average (much as I love watching him). Rose is a totally unknown quantitiy. I also suspect Robbo and Henry will lose a few tenths. It's a good team but not a league/playoff winning one. I didn't say that it would win the league or the play-offs, all I am saying is that they will make the play-offs. Also I think Schramm can up his average if he consistently scores 4 or 5 points every meeting and I know he is capable of doing that. (at home at least) I haven't seen Rose ride that much but from what I saw I think he could certainly mix it with the rest of the leagues reserves. And I agree about what you said with Robson and Henry, unfortunately. I'll go with Workington, Scunthorpe, Ipswich, Peterborough, Berwick and Somerset Followed by Sheffield, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Redcar, Glasgow, Rye House and Plymouth How can you comment on Sheffield's place yet?

jenga Posted January 7, 2014 Report Share Posted January 7, 2014 I'm sure nicki pedersens gear will be quick enough I think it was rolling chassis' only that he got from Nicki. I think top 6 teams may be in no particular order: Scuthorpe, Newcastle, Workington, Ipswich, Peterborough & Berwick. think again about the rolling chassis. is that an exhaust i see sticking out from underneath the covers. what is not quick enough for nikki p, will be very quick in the pl... sour grapes witch...
