Coventry 2015


Recommended Posts

Good solid top two, popular entertaining rider with Cov history at no5 in Stuart Robson, one of King and Bridger will always be a second string, and the most entertaining pair of fast trackers in the EL.

 

Seems a good team to me.

 

PS When was the last time an EL team tracked six British riders?

looks like you have Bridger from what I here well done[/quote

 

Really hope not as would make us a lot weaker. He's a rider who's heart doesn't seem in it

 

Bridger would makes us stronger than having Woodward. People may not like him but to suggest otherwise is just plain wrong. Don't think it will be him anyway.

Lewis Bridger would be a very good signing if he has decided to return and when he is on form he is great to watch but he seemed to switch off at times last season and.didn't appear to be interested.

 

He was supposed to be taking a year out and doing some motocross at weekends and was getting a job for the mean time. Maybe that hasn't worked out and he has decided he does want to ride still and if his heart is in it he will do a good job He finished with a 6.72 average which was very good considering all season only 11 were as a second string and 25 as a heat leader (inc guest bookings) which isn;t bad as most saw their average drop.

 

 

Nice to see a team with just one foreign rider.

Exactly why I hope it's not going to be him. We've had enough riders in the past losing interest and just going through the motions so no thank you to another. Never liked him as I'm not keen on riders with big ego's and think it's a brilliant idea to pop wheelies while at the back. I will be seriously disappointed if it's Bridger. :cry:

I have been impressed with some of the decisions and statements Mick Horton has made in the last 12 months. I would like to think he takes on board the feelings and comments from the fans, we have not heard from Neil Watson for a while, but he certainly responded to comments made on this forum from time to time. I understand that Shamek Pawlicki would be a more expensive option than someone like Bridger, but the results and entertainment value with Pawlicki would be much better, which with the right marketing would improve gates receipts and encourage sponsors to the club. I really think Bridger would be a poor choice.

I'd say Pawlicki would be everyone's number one choice and would probably make us favourites in the EL. Bridger, Mads and Kylmakorpi are 2nd choice no doubt but i wouldn't be disappointed with any of them. It's good that we have plenty of choices, even MJJ fits.

Andy Warren the Swindon journalist tweeted he is hearing Bridger to Coventry. That will upset a few.

 

Not me!

I just hope equipment isn't a problem if it is true!

It will me but if he does sign I'll give him a few weeks before moaning. :lol: Perhaps I won't need to. We'll see.

Numbers alone make him a good signing :) But I get your issues with his, the wheelies in a race, bit of a piss take. Hopefully someone will remind of this!
