Kus at reserve would be worth it, especially if you partner him with someone like Matthew, very strong pairing to make up for our lack of top end strength, imagine if we got Kus riding again like 2016 at reserve? I think winning anything this year was never on the cards. This is year is about keeping the club solvent for 2019 and we were last to team build. We have been trying to secure a number 1 since January but there's little available. Im sure George and Martin haven't given up, but if there's no -one available on Sundays there's little we can do Im yet to see anything on Kus being released, but I only see him getting in through injury. To be fair Carl is riding to his average, to ditch him would be very unfair and even less unlikely (not Georges style). Kus is currently way out of form and although potentially a steal at 4.76 .......... there's no guarantee given the way he is riding that he would outscore Carl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffdiamond Posted May 29, 2018 Report Share Posted May 29, 2018 (edited) If Kus is dropped by Redcar and, fails to secure a team place elsewhere, I would assume Newcastle won't pick up a loan fee ??? I think we need to replace Rose quickly and, if Kus was available it would make sense, even if it were short term.

If Kus was then loaned out to say Sheffield, Redcar would get the loan fee for the remainder of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens if a 'loan rider' gets injured, is that just bad luck ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I don't know WKD,,, but if a facility for Rose expires soon, what do we do ???,,, ask for anther one ? Its plain to see that we are struggling to attract riders to come, (listening to Martins interview, with Roy),,, some riders seem to not like the track,,, but Britains next generation, Worralls, Lambert, Garrity, Howarth and others seem to do ok. Arr yeah, and Cook. Edited May 29, 2018 by ruffdiamond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mauger65 Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 I know speedway seems to make the rules up as we go along ... but what is the position on lewis rose ... do we get indefinite period of guests or rider replacement or does he actually have to be replaced at some stage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mauger65 Posted May 30, 2018 Report Share Posted May 30, 2018 Oh course George could be waiting for trigger happy Rathbone to sack Nicholls ..... I was surprised at least 4 didn't go after the Workington debacle ........... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond@heart Posted May 31, 2018 Report Share Posted May 31, 2018 Interesting that Peterborough have snapped up Kennett, I wonder if he was on our radar, he was looking for a Championship place: "Edward is an experienced rider who had been looking for a Championship team place, and the opportunity was there to bring him in without disrupting the rest of the side, which is also important for us.” Would have been a good replacement for Rose, assuming he is not coming back anytime soon, or Robbo?

I've noticed a few on these threads that suggest robbo should go , apart from being injured almost as soon as the season got going he's been one of the diamonds top riders for many season's and can and does beat anyone round Brough park when he's fully fit . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
