ProudtobeaBrummie Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 So what is the state of play with HSST ? take it everyone had enough of robbo ? he is claiming people were dipping into the funds ? The speedway tavern mentioned a message he sent in but said they would only allow him on if someone else to balance his argument would go on also.

Sings4Speedway Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) Did anybody go along and see Cradley practice last night? If so how did the side look? I think this could be a very strong side this season. Edited April 2, 2019 by Sings4Speedway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heathen1984 Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Brennan and clegg as expected looked quick. Halsey looked ok but wasnt smooth around the track. Harris looked decent. Had 1 slide off thou. Mcgurk looked decebt but cud take few meeting to get going. Whitmore and spencer will struggle to beat the tractor im afraid. Cant see that team in the top 4 to be honest.

Surpised at though Spencer as despite riding pre war equipment he has always been quick in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Walker wasn't "ill" . In fairness to Sheldon & Josh they both came in mid season and were playing catch up. It went wrong before a wheel had turned when Cupitt got his 6th chance and the manager tried to use a illegal rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Cradley swift in making a change to cover the unlucky Brennan and bring in Jack Smith to the side which makes them look a force again. The reserves are starting to fire which must be encouraging for Heathens fans. Not sure what Halsey's issues are setup, fitness, technique? but he doesn't seem to be taking to the Monmore track all that well? With regards to the 2 x 2.00 pointer rule does anybody know if one of the current increases their average can another be brought in? Because this side could look very dangerous if Whitmore is swapped out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurnTwo Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Decent signing, he’s no Brennan but he will do the job just not as much progression as Tom has and I think that will show as I’m certain Brennan would have finished at 1 this year but can’t see smith challenging Clegg for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Just a couple of minor observations. Wallinger's performance for Mildenhall against kent on sunday was by far the best I've seen him ride, very stylish on a tough track. I was very impressed with Spencer when i saw him on the island a couple of weeks ago. He looks to have real potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencer is one of the under the radar riders for this year, certainly natural on the bike and brave (with a slight naive streak?) but was always held back by dreadful machinery, ive not seen him this year but if that has been upgraded he could prove to be a real asset.

MattJ81 Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 Sheldon Davies announced as a replacement for Lewis Whitmore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheldon Davies only averaged 1.63 for Birmingham last year, so should come in on a minimum of 2.00 But rule 19.7.1.1 says " A Team’s Declaration (initial and re-declared) is 36.00 with a minimum MA of 2.00. A maximum of two 2.00 riders are permitted per team." Tom Spencer and Harry McGurk both have 2.00 averages, so they can't have another 2.00 Wasn't this the reason they signed Whitmore in the first place? Because they had to find someone who was above 2.00 and below the limit, and his average just happened to fit?
