poolebolton Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 So last signing at 9pm tonight. Such a mystery who this last rider could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying this since November when CVS confirmed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have a splattering of top class riders here tho, but a few more wouldnt go amiss, providing there pay demands are rasonable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's great that the set nights seemed to have tempted a few , including Tai. Let's hope we make it easier to encourage them as well. But yes I agree they won't be coming here to earn a fortune! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is what is crazy with this one 8 point man only, the opportunity was there to entice more stars back clubs only doing it if they could afford it.I actually think Poole,Belle Vue,Leicester especially have essembled exciting teams this year they are the teams i am most looking forward to s seeing.Maybe Pawlicki, Tai, Zagar (etc might be enticed back to the UK in the future i hope you feeling better and you could be well anough for the start of the season.

Thank you Sid, im working hard to get better, the days continue to improve but the nights are still iffy, Have the big scan in Marc, i will be a little shaky. The problem this country has is the money situation Sid, to attract these big names back you would need sponsors to chip in to pay there points money. Very few clubs can afford it now. Thats why im guessing the 8 pt rule was brought in.. Edited February 1, 2018 by Starman2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i thought that as my club i believe would of struggled to be able to afford Doyle a real shame but Speedway clubs need to be able to balance the books.Saying that this year could be good one clubs look closer together in ability which should produce close encounters.

And even though Matt has offered him a bit more he's still on limited points money he will need more help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 So glad James is back such a nice lad and exciting to watch just got to hope the reserves can gel, he will probably stay at number 7 all season but loads of room for improving his average. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 No surprises, great to see him continuing his career in the top flight. Won't have any pressure on him at all so he can continue progressing at a nice steady pace. I like watching hi too. Don't expect massive improvement but think he could push it up to 3 or 4.
