gee jay Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 if jamie bursill rode what happened to matty marson ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunters Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 Does anybody know who the two riders in Black with white helmets going round after the meeting were? The one with 6 on his back looked pretty fast and not a rookie. Good to see so many being given track time and possible candidates for next year. Connor still seems uncertain who his 3.00 reserve will be. I seem to recall that changes cannot be made after 31st July this season so it is soon make his mind up time.

I believe that the rider wearing no 6 was Eddie Kennett and I think the other rider was Nick Laurence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurnTwo Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Wood signs for Sheffield how many meetings will he miss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglesno1 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Wood signs for Sheffield how many meetings will he miss He will miss 4 meetings; Isle of Wight (H), Isle of Wight (A), Lakeside (H), Mildenhall (H). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunters Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) That could be a bit of a problem against Lakeside and Mildenhall because on the next set of averages he will not be No1. He will be third and that means r/r with rides taken by Baseby, Brennan, Powell and Bates Any guest below his average would have a job performing like him at Arlington.

Moleman27 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 He had too make the step up eventually, personally I would think this makes it look like its getting any we would expect to be signed in a championship side gettting experience now, which would likely be Georgie, Jake and of course Tom.

Hunters Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 I believe Sheffield is a big track which will give him invaluable experience for the trip to Belle Vue in September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrscambelt Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 I think its a big mistake for George, i watched him at Kent on monday and was dissapointed in his performance, I am sure George was too but just imagine how it must hurt to get only a few points per meeting in the bigger league. Ask JPB, Connor coles, Connor mountain and many others this year, i can see that George's average in the NL go down now. Big mistake when your not ready.

Ask JPB, Connor coles, Connor mountain and many others this year, i can see that George's average in the NL go down now. Big mistake when your not ready. I completely disagree with this, Georgie's performance at Kent on Monday was down to mechanical gremlins and a complete one off for this season. I think the time is right for him to start to move up and the greater experience he gains in the championship is exactly what he needs right now and will improve him as a rider and his national league form if anything. He's more than capable of scoring points in the championship and he has done well to earn an opportunity to race at a higher level and I expect it will be the start of a good career for him at a level higher than National.

gazzac Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Good in one way that it will give him experience on other tracks, especially a big one like Sheffield, but we'll soon have first hand knowledge of the problems with the championship having first go of his services and no asset loan fee to compensate. I can see some very similar post's coming on here, to what we've seem on the Kent, IOW, Buxton, Birmingham (etc) threads.

Moleman27 Posted July 19, 2017 Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 On the facebook page its only been positive comments from Eastie fans so far, we enjoy seeing riders who are our own succeed (even if not technically owned by the club) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunters Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 July 31st so they have to sort the reserve out pronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Very interesting Last year wasn't it August? What happens if a rider gets injured? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moleman27 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Then I imagine you are allowed to make an emergency signing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaglesno1 Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 Does anyone know who Charles Saunders is? He as just been added to the Eagles team profiles page, so is presumably the new reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
