Islander15 Posted November 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 22, 2017 The Warriors are joining the SDL 2018. Barry and co are brilliant with bringing on the young ones with My First Skid as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander15 Posted November 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Scott Campos is the second name confirmed. Im surprised hes back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Scott Campos is the second name confirmed. Im surprised hes back. Did well for the Warriors at the end of the season and is on an attractive enough average. Does have greater impacts upon Kings Lynn's NL return which now seems unlikely?

Dickie Head Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Unless I’ve missed it, the NL points limit is still to be confirmed. Are the Warriors jumping the gun with these early signings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Ben Morley is a good signing. Racing a big track will certainly help Ben's development and he's definitely the number 1 they need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Wow didn't see that one coming ever! Ben is a great club man, a great number 1 but big track rider he is not. Hopefully its beneficial for both Ben & IOW but certainly good to see intent from the Warriors this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Morley's been in need of a move to a big track for a few years truth be told. This should really be his last season in the third tier if he's going to kick on at a higher level. Riding a bigger track regularly and winning races will undoubtedly help his confidence when riding for Lakeside (and Rye House if he's part of the 2018 side). A good move for both parties I'd say. A statement of intent from the IOW. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaboy279 Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Big investment from the Warriors, initially I fear this will benefit the rider more then the club. (In the sense of being a home #1) as he is not great on the big tracks. However Warriors have an out and out number 1 who could score maxes away at any track (except the NSS) And if Ben gets dialled into the track, this could be the season he kicks on and joins the upper leagues full time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityrebel Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Ben improved greatly on the island last season, with some fearless rides from the back. Fair play to him, the move will do him good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazzac Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 Congratulations on a great signing in Ben Morley! I hope iow have a great season and have something to cheer about! I echo that, the way the IOW go about things they deserve to have a decent competitive season, hope they have more luck than the last one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waco Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 A surprise for me ...But I'm sure the experience Ben gains by regularly riding a big track will make him a better all round rider as he consolidates his position in the higher leagues..You can gaurantee he will give the I.o.w 100 per cent commitment... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaboy279 Posted December 4, 2017 Report Share Posted December 4, 2017 The more I think about this, it is a real statement of intent from the Warriors. One of the leagues star riders, a solid engine room and a rider that seems to have caught the bug again in Campos, and one of the leagues stronger reserve riders. Best of all for Ben is he can get a premiership place without the fear of multiple clashes. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
