June Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Heard a rumor (whether its true is still to be seen and announced) but apparently Steve Worrall is moving to a Championship track 'closer to home' and this should allow him to fulfill his Polish commitments, and with Rob announcing in the SS that he'd be running Fridays next year (if we are to run) could this mark out a return for stevie? Trying to think of a team, could we maybe have something like this: Steve Worrall, Jake Allen, Josh Auty, Dimitri Berge, No 5?, Josh Bates, Josh Bailey (or JPB?) I'd rather have TJ than Bates though Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander15 Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 That team would be over the points limit with Bates in it, yet alone TJ. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Johnson Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 Stevie W. J Auty.J Allen,D Berge.S Neilsen,JPB comes to 36.49 i think, one rider left but depends on points limit, will it be same 42.5 or 45/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bez Posted November 10, 2017 Report Share Posted November 10, 2017 I think Josh Auty will be back, and I hope Jake Allen will too. Who is the 3rd rider allegedly signed Jorgensen/Berge/Nielsen ? I'd like to see a No1 rider either Worrall would be good. Let's take a punt on a number 7 a bit like Newcastle did with Richie Worrall a few years ago Jenkins/Brennan or the like. My guess assuming 42.00 limit (based on latest published averages) S. Worrall 9.02 T. Jorgensen 7.10 J. Auty. 6.95 J.Allen 6.08 S. Nielsen. 5.53 J. Jenkins 2.00 5.32 left An untried Dane/Swede not sure what average they come in on? T. Pijper. 4.23. Gives a strong number 6 which Rob likes and takes the pressure off an untried No 7.

beaky11 Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Was chatting to someone about this the other day and would love to see Stevie back at the EWR. I think JPB is nailed on to be at Berwick this year but I think a new 2 pointer is something we need. Berge is a worry for me after the way he was last year Id want something like this 1. Worrall - 9.02 2. Allen - 6.08 3. Auty - 6.95 4. Neilsen - 5.53 5. Lyager - 7.00 6. Perks - 5.08 or Gaard -5.00 7. Jenkins or Brennan 2.00 41.66 with Perks or 41.58 with Gaard, dont know much about Gaard although someone mentioned him on here the other day or could potentially try Broc Nicol, thoughts ?

lewy Posted November 11, 2017 Report Share Posted November 11, 2017 Godfrey needs to put together a decent side this season and at least finish above the bottom 3 it's been in for recent seasons Complete clear out required no-one from last season a complete rebuild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do feel we need a good season at home though to bring back the crowds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would swap Auty for Tommy Jorgensen and then thats a decent 1-5. I agree we need a broom through last season and to start anew. Broc Nichol would be a gamble but certainly one worth taking if he was on a 5.00 ? Then a NL rider at the base of it. We know Rob is very loyal to his riders but that in many respects has been our undoing. We do need an out and out No1 Worrall would give us that. Both TJ and Jake Allen can both step up and have great seasons in 2018. Nielsen is a good rider at this level proven round the EWR. Lyager is one of the up coming Danish talents and has shown snippets when he was over here two years ago that he can be a talent in this league for us. If we do manage to take our place in the Championship next season we have got to be competitive home and away and I am pretty sure with that line up we can be.

lewy Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Not even Jake Allen?Jake and Stefan would be a good starting point I guess and build a team around them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Scunny2012 Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 Not even Jake Allen? Should have made myself a bit clearer, the clear out is the riders that started the 2017 season, obviously Allen and Nielsen mid season signings should be in the 2018 team, Douglas already ruled out with visa, Toft, Kerr, Auty, Aarnio and especially Bailey should be replaced and also a new team manager would help.

Albert Posted November 12, 2017 Report Share Posted November 12, 2017 I sincerely hope we go with Josh Auty again.. Good Average and more than capable, not to mention entertaining. Hoping too that Jake Allen returns next year. A bonafide number one is a must, if previous posters are right in assuming Stevie Worrall, that would do nicely. With Kerr seemingly bound for Glasgow... Douglas (no visa), Toft (no thankyou)... Aarnio and Bailey (team needs refreshing, so thanks but no thanks). A fundamental rebuild is on the cards. Would love to see Jorgensen back.. should he decide to ride in the championship. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proud panther Posted November 14, 2017 Report Share Posted November 14, 2017 Being realistic, with the crowds that Scunny get, you are unlikely to have a team of expensive riders. Think you need to gamble on Nielsen & Lyager to improve. Auty looks likely to be in the team, along with Allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
