Harris best days are behind him and his form for Glasgow has been poor. Plus travelling from one end of the country to the other doesn’t help. guess time will tell. What do you want Steve, blood ? Chris will do a job for us, he still has plenty to offer. I agree with Matt this will all being well give us a good push for the play offs. It all comes down to averages. I to feel a little sorry for Linus, he showed flashes of what he can do, but in that position if you are professional enough you always want more.It proves that Matt will not rest untill that Trophy is back home...

Steve0 Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 A desperation signing. Can have good days but mainly poor this season. I never expected he would ride for Poole - it may help his season. How many riders is that now this season from the starting 1-7 who were going to clean up this season. At least it’s not Lahti or Kennett! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurntFaceMan Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) If this was a real top flight Speedway league then I'd agree, but it's not. It's British Premiership. Anybody who knows anything about speedway knows that our Premiership is the same as Championship but with a better number 1. A top notch signing in a league that is about as strong as a 1 ply tissue paper in a bucket of water or a crepe paper condom in a Swindon lass Edited July 12, 2018 by BurntFaceMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YerRopes Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Harris may be past his best, but should easily do better than Sundstrom.. A good signing..sadly.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said earlier Bomber is unlikely to make much of a difference and Linus showed some better form lately so bit of a shame he is the one to make way. I still think Josh is way off his best and Richie hasn't really performed well lately either so unless they improve soon this may not be the end of the changes. I would have Nicholls back but to fit him in would mean a double change. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather have Worrall than Harris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would rather have Worrall than Harris. There was never any question of either Nichols or Harris coming to Belle Vue. I think Garrity would have stayed if there had been any further delay in Worrall's recovery. Much as I like both of them they are both inconsistent/poor at the NSS and in the latter part of their careers. However, I think Harris will do a decent job as a replacement for Sundstrom and often has a poor start but does better as the season progresses.

Why are you bringing me into anything? my constructive opinion is that I think it’s a backward step. If true that Sundstrom has stood down then Harris is as good as signing as is possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have Nicholls back but to fit him in would mean a double change. Can't really sack Richie now, it would be way too harsh especially on a British rider. Also Linus going saves a bit of money I guess. Shame though cos I do like Linus, and it might only be for a month? But that was said about James Shanes too!
