Some teams now have effectively two number ones though, it's gonna be interesting, roll on March. Edited January 4, 2018 by comet49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlislecomet2 Posted January 4, 2018 Report Share Posted January 4, 2018 Whilst we appear to have a solid looking team I can see what you mean about us possibly struggling in heats 13 and 15 against some of the teams who will have one, two even three big hitters in their line up. It should however provide some close meetings and hopefully some great entertainment at DP this year. A solid 1-7 v top heavy, who wins? Roll on March.

I’d go with proctor at 5 think he’d win more races than klindt there - some good no.5’s in the league that know beating klindt at the tapes is likely all they need to do proctor a bit more of a racer and also a decent starter! therefore I’d put klindt+rasser at 3/4 so you’ve got the Danes together and a gater + a racer in the engine room, putting Bewley at 2 which would also mean in campton increases he’s can slide straight into no.2!! If Rene can get back to how he was a few years back when he and kenni Larsen tore the league apart at Newcastle then could be dark horses! I see improvement in rasser bewley and bickley - but if he can’t I don’t see improvement in klindt or much in proctor so could leave you short in hts 13/15 - all that said and entertaining looking side and great to see young brits in local teams LOL . what makes you think that is Workingtons riding order ? only 1,6 and 7 are correct . klink could be @ 2 or even reserve @ one time ! the person who put this on the team 2018 line up,s is not the person who will be deciding the line up .

Think Bewley will end up as number 1 by the end of the year Come back in October and then make judgement, until then you haven't a bloody clue how any of the riders are going to do , all if's and but's as with any team. take for example Glasgow have put out very strong teams over last seasons and won a KOC title , that's it ...its not what's on paper that counts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
