Not sure of his age or whether he is already signed with someone other than the Colts but what about Jordan Palin???  He got 15 points in the same meeting Clegg got 14!!

Max had a lot of clutch trouble last night,all his points were from the back.Danny was also in the meeting and ride well scoring  8 points including a fall.sounded like it were a good meeting.It had live commentary  on bbc radio wm.worth tuning in for the next cradley meeting.i think they also cover the wolves and brum  meetings.

“The Diamonds wanted this so badly and fought hard to get a really well deserved win, and our guest David Wallinger should have had more points to his name as he rode so well. Max Clegg has come into his own now and proved why we wanted to sign him when others didn't.”
Diamonds boss George English feels things are coming together for his side after an impressive KO Cup aggregate victory over Berwick last weekend.

 

Sign him up then!!

He rides for Mildenhall in the NL, who also ride their home meetings on Sundays, so it would depend if he would want to make a permanent step-up to the SGB Championship.

Chances are he'd make a bit more money in the CL... Also it's not like fixtures are every week, maybe something can be arranged? Either way, he looked impressive considering he was only a 2.00 rider

I know this might not be the best place to ask this, maybe an Eastbourne forum or something? lol... But what average would Daniel Spiller come in on? Is he English or German now? 2.00 or 4.00?

Think he'd be good round Brough since he rode so well at Eastbourne... Also does he already race on weekends? I dunno...

Difficult as he is no longer NL eligible so that would suggest 4.00 but dual nationality might squeak him in on a 2.00? However he had quite a deal supplied by Eastbourne and i suspect that would need matching for him to consider coming over and in reality it would be far too much sensibly for a reserve to receive.

He was only impressive in comparison with others on Sunday. Very decent though, yes.

However unless my memory fails me he was riding in the Conference for Redcar ten years or so ago and didn't make the step up.

For my money the discussion on our reserves is academic. We shouldn't let the perfect be the downfall of the good.

Might be worth offering that little bit more tahn is expected, I feel if we had a strong number 7 like Danny Spiller it would really put the Diamonds as one of the strongest teams in the league... To be able to make the play-offs and win the Knock Out Cup would be a very successful season...

But he hasn't ridden every season since, he's only been back around for a couple years and he seems to be doing pretty decently in the NL... And has that experience which is important... Certainly was looking to impress on Sunday with his performance... Plus if he looks impressive compared to one of your current riders... Isn't it then a no brainer to sign him up instead? :blink:
