dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Good man. But what if he romps home in a fast time to win heat 2? 😀😀😀 then fair play and he would deserve the plaudits 📣📣(Though through gritted teeth and with steaming ears!😠😠) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moorelsm Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 I really can't recall a meeting when Paul Starke really stood out at the Showground... Can somebody remind me of one. Nicolai Klint seems a complete steel on his average and at times has looked fantastic, Todd Kurtz has looked good too. Jake Allen and Rasmus Jensen seem to still be available, as is Joe Jacobs.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New era Panthers Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Nope. Tbh you really need Kennett. The rumoured line-up wont win away from home all season. Well maybe at Worky that's about it. Hansen is a different rider away from home don't forget. Kennett is a leader something what the Panthers haven't got imo. Also Holder will miss meetings due to U-21 commitments and guests would be limited. Not saying Starke and BWD is a bad option but if Ged is serious about the play-offs then you need a team leader. Hansen is you're No.1 at home but away from home he is a different kettle of fish. I know most will disagree but if you look at other teams reserves then their is no point in having a 5.00 rider at reserve. Every team needs a rider who is going to lead by example home and away. Having Kennett in the team would leave 2.44 for the NO6 and can you imagine how the two reserves are going score points with 2 riders from the National league . No thanks, it's not going to happen.

DC2 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Yes, agreed, I'd have Kennett & Greaves & Bacon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted December 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 (edited) Number 1 required, however we're not going to get it. BWD didn't exactly tear it uo away from home last season either and lost to quite a few lower averaged reserves in heat 2 away. Starke solid but not spectacular Edited December 4, 2016 by Flappy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 (edited) Maybe ged doesn't have money trees growing in his garden, and he is putting together a team that will keep the home fans happy and the bank manager?? Just a thought. Edited December 4, 2016 by baldyman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 How will we struggle at home? Holder will score 10+ as well as Hansen, Ully and Starke 9+ Lambert will do the job as well as BWD, things will be just fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moorelsm Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Geds no1 thinking is to win at home, so it won't be Starke and Wilson Dean. Having Simon at reserve makes the most sense.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having Simon at reserve makes the most sense.. I would say having Lambert at reserve was the idea but because points limit for next season has been reduced it has changed things slightly meaning he will most probably now have to ride in the NO2 position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 I think at home we could, as Holder is awesome! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted December 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 If we could find another 2 pointer who'd score 2-3 points a meeting I'd definitely go that way personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panthers89 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 You won't find one and after last seasons reserves, well the 2nd half anyway, Ged and Co won't want weak reserves again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazz 50s Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 its good to have a strong No1 but a strong reserve in a solid team is more important can have up to 7 rides and replace out of form or excluded rider plus get us heat wins in rserve races and not loose 5-1s so avoid playing catch up 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flappy Posted December 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 That reserve needs to be cleaning up to make that viable. Take the pressure off of holder and watch him fly. Another option could be Tungate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazz 50s Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 remember end of last season best No1 in league terrible reserves 3rd and 4th every time always on back foot what we gained with strong riders we then lost with weak reserves 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
