Somerset 2017


Recommended Posts

So a rumour mentioning Chris Holder joining Somerset.

 

If so, could it look top heavy if Masters signs.

 

1) Holder

2) Allen

3) Wright

4) Starke

5) Masters

6) Wilson Dean

7) Any room.

 

Of course this leaves out Tungate.

Agree that it's v unlikely as he'd miss too many Friday's.

 

But in fantasy land you could have Peter Ljung in place of Masters and Josh Pickering at reserve with BWD.

I think Tungate was probably the first name on the team sheet.

Don't understand this obsession with riders travelling to Somerset.

Because he lives in Manchester or at least did, traveling to Redcar on a Thursday and then dealing with the M5 on a Friday, plus teams riding over different nights of the week.

As I said hope i'm wrong but it is a hell of a lot to take on.

Whereas last season he travelled to Swindon for thurs then on to Somerset for fri, which would have been a slightly easier schedule.

From most places up north Somerset on a fri afternoon through the summer is not a good trip.

I have a weird suspicion Wrighty isn't in the side. Signing for Redcar on a Thursday and then Somerset on a Friday would play havoc in terms of traveling. Hope i'm wrong though.

Christ, Redcar to Somerset in just under 24 hours is do-able even with the worst traffic imaginable 😂

I expect Holder to be racing for Somerset

If he is expect a good few alternate race nights to fit in with the GPs.Our race night was stated before the season as Friday with Zagar in the side plus a few other problems we ran 4 league meetings on a Friday.We seemed to have to run alot on Wed and we lost Fricke on all of them because he Rode in Denmark.Which was crazy as the gates on Fridays seemed to be a lot bigger.
