RedcarRacer Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Would not mind a gamble on one of the young Americans, signs pointing to Mikkel B Anderson as well maybe. Had forgot about Branford and not a bad shout. Seems like Perks still looking for a team which is a bit of a shame. What average would MBA come in on, presume Nicol is a 5??

boz Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 I would guess a seven as he rides top league in Denmark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junior fan Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 To be fair , at that time , 2 fellas carrying Brian Havelock around the track in a rickshaw would have picked up points against us! Wasnt that the night of the near fog off, think i saw some videos of Robs rides that night. Rob will be riding elsewhere in 2018.

Branford scored 12 points IIRC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob will be riding elsewhere in 2018. Hasnt rob retired, sold up and gone back to Australia? Sure he done that mid way through this season Edited November 30, 2017 by BenR195 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve55 Posted November 30, 2017 Report Share Posted November 30, 2017 That was to allow a leg injury time to heal, at the time both his clubs indicated that they'd be having him back, we shall see. Thought it was his shoulder that was injured, he had one or two decent meetings for Sheffield early in the season and looked like he was going to be a good signing, then he started going backwards during races after making good/reasonable gates, most likely down to the injury he was carrying. Can't say anything about his form for Rye House as I didn't see any of the meetings. If he were to return to Sheffield and show his early season form again, don't think I'd have any problem with him being in our 1 to 7.

RedcarRacer Posted December 1, 2017 Report Share Posted December 1, 2017 One name hasnt been mentioned but who rides the STMP really well, Kevin Wolbert - would happily take him, especially if we don't get - as we suspect - Charles Wright back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnstormer Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Taken from the Bears website "Keay and Duffill are known to be scouring the globe with a good chance that an established rider, not currently associated with a British club, could shortly be on the way to Teesside." Let the guessing begin... Kus ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevePark Posted December 5, 2017 Report Share Posted December 5, 2017 Kus ?? Depends what they mean by "not associated with a British Club." Matej Kus is a Newcastle Diamonds asset, bought off Redcar, so can't see it being him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
