thecoombdog Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Every team is plop so far according to Shov. But no doubt when the meetings start in March Poole will be massive underdogs when hes making predictions. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben91 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 KK hasn't been announced because a) He's not signed on yet or b ) The promotion know he's the key man in the team and are keeping us in suspense. Hope it's the former because if it isn't then there aren't many great options out there if not and the team as a whole could well be seen as a bit meh.

I'm not down with the kids, what does that mean? I think it's great to see a team supporting the British riders, some oldies but goodies in there. Now there's enough triggers in that line for people to start on the jokes again but it's a team I'll be trying to see, if only on the very odd Monday or Wednesday off work.

poppetman Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 If anyone thinks a team with Harris and Barker in it isn't exciting then perhaps they should take up Parkour. I want to see a team that entertains.If they win the league so much the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 I think Jensen and Ford are still negotiating the fee for KK. MF said it would be good to sell a couple of riders to help balance the books with (if) no TV deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aces51 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 (edited) I thought there was a fixed rate scale for loan fees. I can't think that anyone would want to buy KK. Edited December 24, 2017 by Aces51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you Say all a bit unexciting. Who is the big improver? Fully agree. Depends who the last rider is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 Last rider, I'd have Richie Worrall if he's available Chris Harris 7.63 Scott Nicholls 7.48 Richie Worrall 7.26 Edward Kennett 6.39 Ben Barker 6.00 Stuart Robson 5.72 Max Clegg 2.00 Team seems solid enough all the way down the order, and it's all British too And for people saying the team doesn't excite them, I'd love to be able to watch riders like Barker, Harris and Nicholls every week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 The delay? Probably been told their team is over the limit. Clegg is not a 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Share Posted December 24, 2017 What average is Clegg then? He's shown on the Wolves website as 1.75 (rounded up to 2.00) and 2.00 on the BSPA list!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either his championship average or his last Premiership average, seems they are making up one. It's no wonder the averages are even more of a farce than 2017.

I enjoy entertainment as long as we are winning, Take the wins away and another mediocre season beckons. I remember when we were pulverising all and sundry and getting the BP's and winning the League but there were calls for closer matches etc, Well we ended up with our fair share of close defeats at Hoddesdon, there may well have been some exciting racing along the way but all I remember is looking for where we were down at the bottom end of the table. No KK (and yes he does have his very poor meetings) and I see our season finishing again around End of august. Uninspiring is the right word and I would have been happier if Wells was included 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
