diamond_ren Posted October 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2017 Where's the track staff coming from for say a Monday meeting ? We might get away with most prep being done of the Sunday and just tarted it up at Monday teatime. Dogs are on on a Thursday. I know the top league are just looking after themselves when really the whole of British speedway from top to bottom needs sorted out. Its going to be an interesting winter regardless of what happens. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leander Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 But there only supposedly going to set race nights to get some of the so called top riders back. And if it was one big league there wouldnt be a need for doubling up so could race on any night? Set race nights (Mon & Thu) for the Premiership not for the Championship. Not sure how Sheffield, Redcar, and ipswich feel about that. It would also ease the doubling up/down situation as there wouldn't be a many conflicts apart from the three clubs mentioned. Nobody has a Monday as their preferred race night in the Championship. But there only supposedly going to set race nights to get some of the so called top riders back. And if it was one big league there wouldnt be a need for doubling up so could race on any night? Except the top riders won't want to go to Newcastle or Scunthorpe on a Sunday.

Mad Max Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) With lakeside looking at PL you would guess they would want Bowtell in their team, especially if there is a mandatory NL standard number 7 again Edited November 1, 2017 by Mad Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) With lakeside looking at PL you would guess they would want Bowtell in their team, especially if there is a mandatory NL standard number 7 again He said the other week he'd rather be at Newcastle than Lakeside, but how much truth is in that and how much was it that he was just in front of all the Newcastle fans? lol IF we do run next year, and IF he's still riding, we've got to get Scotty Nicholls into the team, watching him last week was amazing, considering he's only ridden Brough 3 or 4 times before, if he rides it every week, he could be amazing!! Maybe that was like a trial to see how he'd do for next year Heard rumours we tried to sign him for this year (2017)... Anyhow... My team would look something like this... 1. Steve Worrall 9.02/Scott Nicholls (Avg???) 2. Ashley Morris 4.72/Theo Pijper 4.23 3. Lewis Rose 6.49 4. Ludvig Lindgren © 6.94 5. Rene Bach 7.53/Jason Garrity 7.32/Lewis Bridger 6.59 (if he's riding)/Paul Starke/Lewis Kerr/Kenneth Hansen 6. Connor Mountain 3.33 7. Alfie Bowtell 2.03 I think 6 of the places I'm sure about, not so sure about that last spot though (number 5), not many options 1. Stevie Worrall 9.02 2. Ashley Morris 4.72 3. Lewis Kerr 6.85 4. Lewis Rose 6.49 5. Richie Worrall 8.58 6. James Sarjeant 3.20 7. Luke Ruddick 2.00 40.86??? Edited November 1, 2017 by Dandelion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke Ruddick 2.00 Lewis Kerr has already announced on Facebook/ Twitter that he has got 2 teams sorted, With Newcastle not even announcing they are running I doubt Newcastle will be one of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mauger65 Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 i thought glasgow had him next year I would think Steve is also very doubtful ..... he was very non committal and said he was looking to do poland ..... even if riding on a saturday ... the polish play offs could rob us of him lindgren looks like the only certainty we have tried rose and morris at 3 and 2 and with luddo at 4 .... we were too weak away..... team needs an overhaul or re-jigging 1 2 3 rose 6.49 4 kerr 6.89 5 lindgren 6.94 6 morris 4.72 7 Philips 2.00 27.03 ............ leaving 15.47 for top 2 .... should be 42.50 limit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which lets be honest wasnt good enough home or away so why would have them back? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandelion Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 (edited) If we need a big top end rider, with Steve in Poland, how about the return of Kenneth Bjerre? If I'm correct, he'd only be on a 8.22 average. As pointed out above, the limit should be 42.50... Partly because it needs to be, to make the league actually interesting again, and partly so we can have this team It'd be so good, probably win most things, but how likely would it be? Not very is my guess 1. Kenneth Bjerre 8.22 2. Lewis Rose 6.49 3. Kyle Newman 6.10 4. Ludvig Lindgren © 6.94 5. Aaron Summers 8.00 6. Ashley Morris 4.72 7. Alfie Bowtell 2.03 Total : 42.50 Another rider I'm a fan of that I'd like to see at our level (not necessarily with Newcastle) is Kai Huckenbeck Edited November 3, 2017 by Dandelion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
