Newcastle 2015


Recommended Posts

Am I right in saying Both Kerr and Rose still get the reduction for the First 3 years out the NL, and that would make their averages 7.36 and 4.05 respectively?

 

If RW became available you could have:

 

Lewis Kerr 7.36

Anders Mellgren 6.57

Ludvig Lindgren 7.12

Anton Rosen 6.69

Richie Worrall 7.32

Simon Neilsen 3.36

Lewis Rose 4.05

 

It comes in a shade under at 42.47, and Worrall would more than likely go to number 1 at the first average change, unless Kerr has a brilliant season and stays ahead of Richie, in which case it is win win for Newcastle.

Would love to see that team, but expect to see Henry and Steve W.

Lindgren is back - well I seriously hope that he can live up to everyone's expectations. Only time will tell on that. I want the 'Diamonds' to do well and Lindgren riding well consistently is a seriously good Rider. I wish him luck (and I mean that).

 

Delighted Rosen has signed as I am sure that, with an injury free run, he could do very well for us.

Delighted out Turnip Twins are back with us for 2015.

As has been said, Ludde could have a great year, and move his average up quite a bit. Rene is the best overtaker, I think, in modern times at Brough, but Ludde is entitled to that honour especially after last year.

Anton unfortunately did not cut it this year, after his promise that he showed in late 2013. He definitely has it, and after he has got over his serious accident at Peterborough, I now expect him to continue to where he left off season before last. Having the Turnip Twins together is a hoot, and I look forward to see them together at events entertaining us all like they did at the 2013 DD. Great fun.

 

Puzzled why they were not announced before this, but heyho, we have got them and look forward to hearing about the rest of the team. It would be interesting if signings are being held back because of the Jack Holder problem. Hmmm.

Get her to make a blue and yellow beard warmer, with a Magpie in the middle of the chin. Ideal Xmas prezzie.

I was thinking of the 'pocket watch cosey' or maybe a 'mobile phone sock',,, so he could keep it in his pocket, and cherish it secretly,,,

cos no-one else would know about it, apart from us ;)

To be fair to Anton, he was injured early on (29 April) and we didn't see what he might have been, as it was decided to release him.

Yes, but it was obvious from the few matches he had at the beginning of the year, he had not picked up from where he left off in 2013. He was principley dropped because of that, to accommodate the big hitter number one. Only became obvious later, that his injuries were far more severe that at first thought.

Or of course a 'willy warmer'. They are quite nice in the winter months, so I am told. :shock:;)

fair enough and thanks for clearing a few things up... But do you see why SOME of the paying punters find him an enigma and frustrating? Max one min and beaten by opposition reserves the next....

 

Seen as you obviously know him, has he ironed these problem out for next season?? And riding at #5 means you are with or against at least one reserve in 3 of your alloted races, so a man of his talent should really hold their average... number one was tough though i agree.... Heres hoping he can push on next season and us doubters can eat humble pie.

ad rather have a pork pie yum yum :P

I think thats a strong first 4 for Newcastle, I hope you sign S Worrall next so we dont get him at Berwick on that ave.

get'n picky on riders

I've read that somewhere,,, but he was injured 29th April, then was riding in Sweden on 6th May,,, very odd that, unless it's a mistake :unsure:

I think it only became apparent much later that he had in fact fractured his skull. You could well be right as i also think i saw some scores and they were poor in Sweden.

I never knew that. The Lad will do very well to come back from an injury like that. I wish him all the luck in the World.

 

Very brave bloke. :approve: :approve:

I used to look out for him during the live Swedish TV on Tuesday evening evenings last season. He was often in the pits helping people. Notice in this weeks SS that he rode last week on the 12th December and scored 6 from 4 rides.

Exactly, he seemed fine in the Swedish leagues where he was 'main body' whereas Ludo was at reserve!
