Bagpuss Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 Would probably be my next choice but I expect Kent would get priority in the event of a clash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kickitov Posted December 22, 2014 Report Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'd imagine we are waiting on Morris' fitness. Clegg and Greaves will be racing on Wednesday nights which must rule them out. Tom Perry has signed for Birmingham who I think race on Fridays so I'd take a punt on him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junior fan Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I wouldn't have thought that Ashley Morris will be fit by January. Wolverhampton can say yeah he'll be OK by then, but I'm doubtful of that. Someone had suggested Oliver Greenwood to me, but I couldn't see his name in the tier 2 group. I know Darryl Ritchings' name was in that group and I wouldn't mind giving him a go, but of course, the lower down the list we go, the less choice of guests we have...least I believe that to be the case. It's a difficult one! Rob Branford Junior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynnboy Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 I would personally bring 5-6 riders down to Lynn for a day and let them race each other and see what there machinery is like and then see who comes out on top. as long as it's not james cockle or another of the Lynn old stars I don't mind.

Bagpuss Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Rob Branford Junior Is he on the list? Would be a good option if so, as long as there are minimal fixture clashes with Edinburgh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

INCOGNITO Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Just pick the next highest in the draft list - simples! Tier 2 draft riders were not ranked so it was simply first come first served. Ashley Morris is not the answer as he wasn't too good at Wolverhampton and is now trying to come back from a long spell on the sidelines. Oliver Greenwood should be in the list but one rider that is there is James Cockle who certainly knows the track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Cockle is nowhere near good enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Cockle is nowhere near good enough. Taking away those that can't fit in due to the same race night is there anyone else that is and knows the track as well as him ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Take a look at the video of heat 15 of the NL KOC meeting and you'll see that he hasn't got a clue how to ride it however many laps he has done. Would rather take a chance on Morris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivanhoward Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 Cockle has been riding in the 2 lower leagues now for about 12 years representing at least 6 teams without ever really showing more than low ability. What chance would he have in the Elite League even at the Norfolk Arena where most of the other teams reserves have already shown they can beat him and most of whom are youngsters likely to get better.If any of the Young stars have to be chosen it would seem to make more sense to give Tom Stokes a chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynnboy Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 If cockle is named as no 7 I think I will be giving Kings Lynn a miss would rather a up and coming rider not a Lynn old star rider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratton Posted December 25, 2014 Report Share Posted December 25, 2014 It has to be Stokes surely? the ruling stopping Rose riding this year for the Lynn really looks a ridiculous one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
