Winditon Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 I know he's in the National League but he should have stuck to just that and maybe come into the Premiership in a few months when a place became available providing he was doing the business in that league.

On a 2 or a 3 he will be a steal on that average given time to bed in again, Matej missed out because we wanted to get Lambert in last year, and this year he is riding in Poland along with Rose and Hancock so we could not sign him. It was BTS that wanted to buy Danny, and together with Steve Brock and STS, they paid for him to be a Newcastle asset. No brainer. Doesn't look like clubs were queing up to buy him. Interesting to know what his price was? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be nominal I think, especially coming from Peterborough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aceslider Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 Good to read the freshly published statement this morning on Diamonds website. As Winiton comments, thats all that was asked for. Excellent response from the promotion team and thats certainly a "thank you" from me! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 Good luck to the Diamonds in their quest to complete the team. Fingers crossed they can pull a couple of rabbits out of the hat and look competitive at the very least. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrace Grumbler Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'm sure it will all get sorted. The statement is reassuring. For a number of non-speedway related reasons I think I'll enjoy this season more than the last few, and I'm really looking forward to it. Hopefully I'll be able to get along to P & P as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I'm thankful we have Speedway. I know George has the club at heart but it was frustrating not hearing anything. I don't expect to know the club's business but a brief statement that was released yesterday is all we ask for. Onwards and Upwards now hopefully. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomerang Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 21 hours ago, Winditon said: Danny Phillips will be out of his depth this season in the Championship. Should have had a season in the National League after his injury. Or atleast started in that league to see how he's progressed. You've got to remember how much stronger reserve pairings are in the Championship this season. For example he wouldn't get near Ashley Morris or Wilko. totally agree yes that's me agreeing with wonders never cease ha ha even before his big crash he was still well off the pace sorry but the kid dosent like to mix it into the first big hope am proved wrong danny boy we will wait and see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winditon Posted March 17, 2018 Report Share Posted March 17, 2018 Are we maybe waiting for a rider getting a visa or something.? Might be totally wide of the mark but got to be some reason for the delay. Anyone got any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe there is some kind of 'admin' hold up, a dunno ? but, Dave has put out a plea for helpers tomorrow at the track, maybe some people might know something there, (unofficial, of course).

All a bit baffling if you ask me. Their last statement said should hear something in maybe 3 days or 4 days. Not very convincing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
