Newcastle 2015


Recommended Posts

I would be happy with Robbo for another season as long as he isn't our number 1 or 5 he has done well at number 3. We need two high scoring riders at 1 &5 so we can get back to enjoying heats 13 and 15 home and away. Danny could be one of them.

 

Yes I would like to see the two Lewis's back. It will all depend on their ambitions and how Kings Lynn build their team.

 

Most of the races I remember as being special in 2014 were down to Ludde and also Danny King. I know Lightning can be infuriating at times but what an entertaining rider he is blasting around the boards. I hope we can fit him in for sheer entertainment value, but not at number 5. Danny too entertains as both he and Ludde often miss the gate. I pays my money to be entertained and these two do that.

 

So what am I saying? 2015 to track the same riders as 2014 nah I would be really pleased if George can bring in a Cookie monster or similar.

 

I think our reserve berths will hold the key to success It would be great to track Lewis Rose at number 7 and a young prospect at 6. Simon Neilsen did nothing wrong but I wouldn't want him back again.

 

I guess we will have to wait until the promoters meet as the Elite League appears to be in trouble. Maybe we will be once again members of a British League? The sport needs to bring in changes at times to survive so we will have to wait to see what the bosses decide to do with our sport.

 

I am happy that George is talking about running next year. 2015 will be Georges 18th season in charge and that is a record for Newcastle Speedway. We had Johnnie Hoskins, Mike Parker and Ian Thomas as promoters but they all walked away from us. George, Darryl and Alan deserve a pat on their backs as Newcastle speedway boldy goes into the 18th consecutive season in 2015. Good luck guys bring us some silverware next year

Re King's Lynn: Lewis Rose will stay at reserve, but Lewi Kerr will be in the top 5 (if either/both are retained, obviously).

 

Re Simon Neilsen: If he "did nothing wrong" why wouldn't you want him back? I personally would like to see Lewis R and Simon N at resreve at the start of next season. Both will improve (in my opinion) next season, especially if they are starting in the 6 & 7 berths.

if we had the choice ( diamonds fans ) who would you like as number 1 next season cookie or king kenni larsen

Kenni would be my choice but I doubt he will come back o.o I think the most realistic would be King out of the 3.

 

Kenni Larsen

Craig Cook

Danny King

 

In the order of who I'd prefer, although I 'd be happy with any of them :)

Your in cloud cuckoo land if you think Craig will be anywhere but Armadale next year if he stays at PL level, which, with a heavy heart, I hope he doesn't.

 

He needs to expand into a foreign league if he wants to progress.

I never said I thought there was a chance.. 'In the order of who I'd prefer' I also don't think there a cat in hell's chance of Cookie being at Brough either.. But it would be nice..

I, like TWK would'nt might any of those coming to Newcastle, but all with 'sub 7pt ave' might struggle at No.5,,, plenty room for improvement like :-)

but, with 1 from Poole, 1 really hot property and the other not too keen on our 'unique circuit',,, a can't really see it happening :-(

Well we should be looking at all options. Simon does not seem to me to be a rider who will improve much and if a young prospect becomes available I would want to take the risk of starting with him over Simon. If there is no overnight sensational young 3 pointer like Nathan Greaves available then yes Simon would be good as second reserve.

 

What date is the dinner dance?

well its only a few weeks until the agm so lets hope the promoters can make the right decisions,, I would like to see a 40 point limit for the top 5 and the reserves must be british as I think that would increase crowds with a bit luck as I think with up and coming british lads giving a chance it can only be good for the future of the GB team over the next few years

40 points for top 5 is interesting. Edinburgh would just not (by 0.3) be able to retain all 5 of their current top 5.

 

I'd imagine a fair amount of teams are way below that number already.

sounds good to me - the Witches could strengthen by about 5 points.

and it would be on par with the good old days like back in the 70's when the likes of the owen brothers rode for us the ( diamonds ) and we had good solid 2nd strings and the reserves could get at least 4 points each and that was under the 13 ht rule aswell

Happiness is 40-38. :t::approve: :approve:
