A master stroke be Godfrey would be to get JPB, now that would wind up Rathborne, as every Posh supporter I speak to say hes a cert at Peterborough

I suggest you speak to supporters much further north!

Its ok getting the laps in but will it be with dirt on the track or will they have to wait for the first match of the season to get used to the track properly

Exactly. I have raised this point many times over the years that a training track is a blue groove, devoid of any shale. Similar on P & P day, the riders go out on a smooth track for photo opportunities.

 

What they need, as a team, is 2 consecutive days of riding & team bonding.

There were a few riders at NL level who guested for CL clubs but were out of their depth but gave it a go. Ryan McDonald & David Wallinger spring to mind but I would be pushing to get the type of rider like Phillips or JPB who are still 2-pointers & who have not been named is squads yet, although that doesn't mean that they haven't been snapped up, just not announced. A 2-pointer that can get you a couple of points in heats 2, 4 or 8 is required before he, probably loses his 4th ride.

Will Alfie Bowtell get a place at Lakeside or Newcastle (Danny Phillips back) ? he could be one to consider a real favourite.

Alfie won't fit

 

I can see it being Ryan Kinsley, other than Kyle Bickley and Alex Spooner (Who's not ready) he's the only other rider in the Open class at Scunthorpe, although I see a lot more entering themselves now that they know a place is open for grabs

Luke Harris for starters.
