Ben91 Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Well, bugger me! That retirement didn't last long, did it? And we did all that emotional send-off business at the last meeting at Buxton and it was probably just a ruse to get away from Friend Pipe! I just hope that Mr Blacklock doesn't do something silly like sign for Stoke. Sounds to me like he was struggling to make the sport pay just riding in the NL. I assume now he has signed for Berwick he'll be looking for a NL spot too to keep riding regularly. What happens if he is dropped by Berwick during the season will remain to be seen however.

I just hope that Mr Blacklock doesn't do something silly like sign for Stoke. when I spoke to Ryan at the last meeting he said he didn't feel he was getting the chances in premier and unless he got a premier place he was quitting , I spoke briefly to him last week about his Berwick team place and he said he wasn't looking to ride NL cause of work commitments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Mole Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Well what a great chance to get for him with being managed by a ex world champion and have very good experienced riders in the team with him will help massively Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Thumper Posted December 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Could a return for Ryan Blacklock be on the cards now he has signed for Berwick in the Championship? Bloody hell, he has made more come-backs than Frank Sinatra! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Bloody hell, he has made more come-backs than Frank Sinatra!

There was no mention of if this or if that. I am not getting on anyone's back and I wish Ryan every success. I don't think we need to bring Jesus into it.

Little Thumper Posted December 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 Nice to see that Shelby Rutherford will be back with Buxton in 2017. Shelby had a bit of an up and down season in 2016 but he remained enthusiastic and I do believe that he could make significant progress in the coming season. G'day to our southern hemisphere friends who read this drivel Give it LARGE, Shelby. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Leslie Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 Disappointing to see Ryan Burton being lured away from Buxton by bigger spending clubs. Buxton have to rely on the loyalty of the riders they find. It's sad when they have their heads turned by clubs with more money. Expecting other departures from Hi-Edge very soon too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Thumper Posted December 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 (edited) Well at least Buxton have got two three riders for next year. That's two three more than Stoke seem to have managed. Give it LARGE, Buxton. Edited December 21, 2016 by Little Thumper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cheese Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Tom Woolley rejoins Buxton on a 4.90 average 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Thumper Posted December 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Tom Woolley rejoins Buxton on a 4.90 average Well, that's pretty good news and apparently, Jason Pipe is delighted and, "looking forward to working with him again in 2017" Tom was getting back in the Buxton groove when he came to guest on a couple of occasions last year and I think he should be able to improve a tad on his 4.9 average. I wonder what the next big news will be from the Hitmen? I think we are entering a time of interesting developments. Perhaps the Bod in the Box will have invested the £20 note that I gave him after the last meeting wisely and purchased this masterpiece? Or perhaps, something even more exciting might happen? :rolleyes: Edited December 21, 2016 by Little Thumper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter sutcliffe Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Glad Tom Wooley is back, had some good meetings at the end of last year at number 1 for the mighty hitmen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Seems slightly strange that all the years Tom rode the Buxton track his best performances came as an away rider? Either way he should be capable of maintaining his average but im not sure if he will add more than 0.5 to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way he should be capable of maintaining his average but im not sure if he will add more than 0.5 to it. Who knows, maybe a change of scenery did him good and also he had a shoulder operation in the close season which he desperately needed. Whatever the reason we are happy to have him back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The signals were clear to see. It is rumoured that the Bod in the Box will be taking over.
