Newcastle 2018


Recommended Posts

Steve and Richie sorted elsewhere.

 

Would like Rene in there somewhere

 

Might be hard for only 10 league, 3 trophy and 1KOcup match to attract riders who do not double up.

 

If it is still home and away twice (they haven't said either way!) that's 40 League matches 6 Trophy and at least 2 KO cup matches (plus the usual pre-season challenges) and we struggled to get them all in last season!!

I think Pearson said 1 home 1 away for the Championship in his "video"

And also on Edinburgh twitter

 

Start in April and finish end of Aug and that is 22 Sunday’s to fit in 14 fixtures with poss 2play offs but Sep and Oct give 9more Sunday’s and poss 2 more KO cup

 

So 31 Sunday’s to fit in 18 meetings means no continuity in my eyes and a rider will struggle to survive on 28 guaranteed fixtures.

surely with the league cup back, it'll only be 1 H & A in the league,,, otherwise the play-off cut-off will end up being put back till mid October ;)

Is it once home and away for the league program

Nigel Pearson in his vid also says one home and one away. Less reason to start early, and should be a better chance of getting all fixtures done before the pressure of the PlayOffs.

Hopefully the prelim round of the cup will be prioritised by those in it.

 

Challenges for the rest to open and then get into the LCup

Well disappointed there is no four team Tournament back.Rolling starts,well let us hope there are stronger starting marshalls to get them to the tapes and the rider does not move wheels back when he turns his head to another rider ,I hope the referee excludes them if they do and it is kept consistent.

Who are Newcastle's assets? Is there like a list somewhere?

yes,,, its scratched on the back of the pits wall...

anyway,,, how are you getting on with the staff rota's ? ;)

 

So baby Bjerre isnt at Sheffield next season. I wouldnt mind him here what do other people think? It seems we need a new number 1 considering Stevie & Robert wont be with us next season.

I hope not, as a no.1.

Lasse will be expensive havent been impressed with him at brough when hes been their.

He cant be as expensive as having Robert & stevie for the past 2 seasons surely?

yes,,, its scratched on the back of the pits wall...

I hope not, as a no.1.

He coped ok when he was number 1 at redcar before he got injured. I dont really know who will be in our team this year what with losing our main sponsor might we see a team built on a budget without a so called number 1?

That's not a bad Team. I think I would settle for something like that.
