However Swindon may see him as a good signing with Doyle back.  POSSIBLY - Morris and Morris OR Wells and Allen A change of track is what Nick needs to rebuild his confidence and that's what he would get if he stayed at Swindon.  With him and Rosco being close and the loyalty he and the club have shown to each other, I would be surprised if he was to leave Blunsdon for the coming season - especially with such an attractive average having just signed one of the top riders in the league with a high average.

Would not be happy if Nick went elsewhere and upped his game.We all know what he can do and on that average he should be a shoe in.Also i would love him to stay and eventually get a testimonial also continuity in the PL has to be good for Nick .This is because he has moved one hell of alot at Championship level over the years mainly because of the crappy rule book.

Call me wolfie Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 If we can't sign Morris or Pawlicki I would imagine it could be Rory to fill the last heatleader slot but would think that may very well be plan c as we really need significant changes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That to me makes the difference between being a good signing and a poor one. Surely we would only have signed him if he came in at reserve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we would only have signed him if he came in at reserve Becker has plenty of tight track experience in the US so a week or 2 and he'll be fine at Monmore. In a tough Polish 2nd tier he showed the potential he has on the bigger tracks. Personally, he could easily match his assessed average and no doubt come with excellent equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJWolves Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 I am thinking of it from a Wolves perspective not just looking at Becker, who may well be a very good prospect. If he comes in as 5th in the averages and Howarth as 4th then the team starts to look no stronger than the one that didn't make the top 4 in 2018.

Wolfsbane Posted November 29, 2018 Report Share Posted November 29, 2018 (edited) Trying to read between the lines of Adams track review comments in today's SS JBA won't be back and it will most likely be Morris of the Ashley variety.

T.N.T. Posted November 30, 2018 Report Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) CVS said there would be 4 returning (Masters, Thorssell, Howarth, Morris) plus one new face (Becker) and one returning rider who rode here in the past (Pawlicki maybe) Luke Becker was a real achievement as most teams must have been looking at him all season and if Wolves can get Nick Morris it would be good as both ride for the same Polish team and under the wing of Greg Hancock. Masters Howarth Morris Thorssell Pawlicki Becker Morris However I do like a more solid line up like .... Masters, Pawlicki (Schlein), Thorssell, Wells, Worrall, Howarth, Becker and although Nick Morris fits in well why would Swindon let him go just as Wolves wouldn't let Jacob and Kyle go on such modest averages  Wells and Worrall (either) are just as strong as Morris and Morris and does three 8 point riders really work ?
