SCB Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 As they have an excellent clubhouse, why not use it & name your team in front of your fans & make some money out of the evening. Thats exactly what they are doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelDan Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 What so he will average 13 a meeting??? That makes sense!!! It suits Ford allowing Holder to go out on loan to obtain a realistic average for 2018. I can't see it happening as I have mentioned before due to being a Friday track and the number of meetings Holder will miss due to the GP's. The promotion aren't silly and know the score. Poole weren't prepared to take him on an unttainable average so why should anyone else unless Poole contribute £. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman2006 Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) Unless Ipswich are moving into the Premiership it's not really relevant If Gavan says its relevant then its relevant. Anything Gavan says is relevant, you should know that by now... Edited November 27, 2016 by Starman2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najjer Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 What odds on Schlein? Heard no mention of him going anywhere else and I have no idea who Somerset are signing so putting 2 and 2 together? I hope not.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 I hope not.... Really? Be a great signing on 7.5. Well for the 5-10 meeting he would do before getting injured! Risk worth taking IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Ace Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 I really can't work out what Somersetshire team will be. Which is quite exciting really. I reckon you will put a decent team out though. With a real no1 that's not holder. Killer may be tempted bk to uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble53 Posted November 27, 2016 Report Share Posted November 27, 2016 (edited) Good luck with your new team . I look forward to seeing the names on Dec 6 If you follow Somerset on Twitter, or the Rebels new Twitter on Facebook page, you'll see them as they're announced, as they normally post them up as they're introduced at the social night Retaining 6 riders from the previous season when they were in a lower league - how poor is that? Some people still hanging on to the old Elite League, when will people realise that the SGB Premiership is not the old EL, it's quite a step down, hence the 50pt team building limit & massive averages (which will obviously fall to 12pts or below) for people like Chris Holder, Jason Doyle etc, but a step up on the old PL. In my opinion last years team would have given many in the 2016 version of the top flight a good go for their money.

You hear news and rumours of riders signing for every club but Somerset actually manage to keep most signing a secret until it happens.

Col Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 With the signing of Howarth, I cannot see Wolves going top heavy. Masters to lead the Rebels with Grajczonek & Tungate as back up. Means potentially... Masters 8.97 Wright 6.59 Grajczonek 8.9 Batchelor 7.36 Tungate 9.03 Allen 5.96 Wajknecht 3 0.19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masters 8.97 Wright 6.59 Grajczonek 8.9 Batchelor 7.36 Tungate 9.03 Allen 5.96 Wajknecht 3 0.19 Grajczonek isn't coming back, already stated he doesn't like the traveling every Friday. Wajtknecht I doubt will be back, needs a tighter track imo. Plus I doubt Masters will be a Rebel again seeing as he gets booed by a section of the crowd.

Masters 8.97 Wright 6.59 Grajczonek 8.9 Batchelor 7.36 Tungate 9.03 Allen 5.96 Wajknecht 3 0.19 That's a team I've got a lot of time for! How realistic is it, I'm not too sure. Grajczonek isn't coming back, already stated he doesn't like the traveling every Friday. Wajtknecht I doubt will be back, needs a tighter track imo. Plus I doubt Masters will be a Rebel again seeing as he gets booed by a section of the crowd. It hasn't been confirmed or denied that Josh isn't coming back has it? Admittedly it looks unlikely but stranger things have happened. With regards Masters, do you just mean that you boo him? Let's not forget that it was Somerset who sacked him when he was riding for us. I think the only person I can remember getting booed as an opposing rider is Ben Barker! Really? Be a great signing on 7.5. Well for the 5-10 meeting he would do before getting injured! Risk worth taking IMO. Yep - for the exact reason you've just said. Far too injury prone and was pretty painful to watch last season on the tele. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beowulf Posted November 28, 2016 Report Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) SCB - as you are the respected wise sage of the forum, is Howarth a poor/expensive signing on that average ?

I think his press statement was sort of confirmation tbh. If he goes anywhere in the Premiership it will be back to Belle Vue. No not just me that booes Masters, i've heard a few round by me when i've been there. Somerset didn't sack him though, he got injured and when the averages changed it meant changing 2/3 riders to bring him back. No rider is bigger than the club.

Wasn't it three into two didn't go, namely Vissing, Monberg and Masters and Gary went with the first two. Sam spat the dummy allegedly, and said some bad stuff on the media. In fairness Sam has shaped up now and would be a good signing imo. In saying that I would be amazed if he left the Wolves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did and i think he's grown up a bit now. You would be suprised if he left Wolves, why do you say that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
