Gemini Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 .........woz01.............I do love watching Zagar round Brandon at times, he's had a poor season by his standards overall but that average has to be attractive to someone. But hopefully not Coventry. And not blinking Batchelor either as someone has suggested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Emil Sayfutdinov rode 9 meetings in the season you required 8 meetings to be an asset so he's an asset too. Meaning Greg, Emil, AJ, Pawlicki and Harris are all assets. Only likely to see 1 of them riding for the Bees next season though and I would imagine that Horton has been hard at work trying to sell as many of them as possible!

Bees_Man Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) Without coming across too negative, regardless of the rules and regs I don't have an awful lot of faith in the current promotion turning us into a top of the table side, especially if KK wants back to Poole. No real decent assets now, none have been replaced and a few sold along the way. Edited September 13, 2016 by Bees_Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Im guessing but i think we will see a far more solid 1-6 or 1-7 which ever is decided at the AGM. A bit like how Wolves set up their side at the start of this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 Surprised Shamek is still a Cov asset as he seems to be linked to Poole in recent times when he has ridden here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB252 Posted September 13, 2016 Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 We've got a number of big name assets that have never ridden for the current promotion and are never likely to! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 (edited) Good point forgot Shamek was party of Coventry amazed they have not used him. At one point there was talk of a swap of Shamak becoming a Poole asset and Kaspazak a Coventry asset. However Shamak didn't want to ride over here so that fell through. Ford might not be so keen now KK has found form again. Assets don't really mean a lot nowadays. A rider will ride where they want to Edited September 14, 2016 by mdmc82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve0 Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 The last swap deal wasn't the best bit of business by Matt Ford - Doyley for Magic and look where they both are now - Doyle 2nd in the world currently and committed to the EL and Magic - well he is in the SGPs for now! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Harris rolling average is just 6.5 at the moment, absolutely steal. The last few meetings riding with those damaged ribs could actually help Coventry's team building next year. Kings rolling average is over 7, worth it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No real decent assets now, none have been replaced and a few sold along the way. Don't really see the point of having a large rider asset base these days. If KK was a Coventry asset and wants to ride for Poole next year - he will! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midland Red Posted September 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Has KK said he wants to go to Poole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Has KK said he wants to go to Poole? No just as Poole have not said they want KK back. Just fans speculating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Jasper Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Personally think a new experienced team manager is required, a team manager cant be calling fans Bell ends as they queried why he was not at Monmore Green on Monday. The team was losing, the team / promotion didn't put a small announcement out on the Website, stating he would be missing for personal reasons, yet the fans are called the names... Absolute shambles. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolebolton Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 KK seems to put in a lot of effort when he rides for Poole. I think he has proved himself to Matt that he wants to ride for Poole. KK is arguably the most sort after rider in EL because he is very good and not in GP which means that he can ride a lot. I know he has missed Coventry meetings that's due to race night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 As i've said before, KK has a natural affinity with Poole with his UK Management being based down here and also part of the Poole 'backroom team'. His inclusion or otherwise in a Poole team will as always depend on a mixture of pay demands and availability!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did he miss Monday nights Coventry match for some "official" polish celebration when half the squad missed it racing for their teams? ? His commitment to the EL has stunk for years now.

I know he has missed Coventry meetings that's due to race night. I have been to quite a few EL meetings at Brandon this year and I would say KK has put a lot of effort in his racing for the Bees this year. That is an opinion from a neutral. I do agree with Steve though that it is the meetings he misses and the reasons for his absence that brings into question his commitment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naffer Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 He does ride here though plenty don't ,if you had a choice of a free piss up at home or a night in Wolverhampton which would you choose? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
