mauger65 Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 i know he will improve on is false average...... but at a team average of 37.50 we gonna give redcar a good fight for that wooden spoon .......... still can only see nil points from our travels ...... can we remain unbeaten at home .......... we've dodged a few bullets so far ... but apart from Sheffield who cant ride our track ....... I think the others will be fancying an away win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But according to the pundits we were going to get slaughtered home and away when the team was first announced. Look at some of our scores so far.

screm Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Delighted to see Matej fixed up with Newcastle, hopefully George English will get the best out of him as he did the last time he rode for the Diamonds and I saw for myself he good Kus can be when he is happy and settled. This will mean of course that Lewis Rose becomes available, I wonder if we will see him back with a team fairly soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All things are possible, including team changes everywhere, who do you see as likely to be bottom on current line-ups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kus, when he is happy and wanted, can be a good rider even at tracks like Newcastle which is not the most suitable for his 'big track' style. Lewis is in a quandry at the moment as he is injured again for the 4th year in a row, and perhaps he is contemplating if he really wants to continue riding. He needs time out to think and I certainly hope he makes a decision which suits him and his family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted June 7, 2018 Report Share Posted June 7, 2018 Kus is an enigma ,when in the mood and gating can be very good,or terrible when not in the mood.Not very inbetweens with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreddieWebb Posted June 17, 2018 Report Share Posted June 17, 2018 Wrote up my opinions on Newcastle signing Matej Kus. Considering that the signing takes away our reliance on guests, it seems positive so far, give it a read if you want to and feedback is always appreciated.https://www.tremr.com/freddie-webb/a-kushty-signing-newcastle-diamonds-sign-matej-kus Newcastle Diamonds month review for Mayhttps://www.tremr.com/freddie-webb/newcastle-diamonds-month-review-may Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloom89 Posted June 18, 2018 Report Share Posted June 18, 2018 I see Somerset have replaced Jeppesen would he be worth a go if we could replace Wilkinson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
