Sometimes rumours have at least some substance of truth tothem, sometimes they are way off. I am putting my money on the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only fibbing, but as there hadn't been a post on the Eastie section for 2 weeks, just wondered if it would wake a few more of us up! Obviously the days are still too short and the night's too long at the moment, role on the spring. Edited January 12, 2020 by gazzac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple.H. Posted January 12, 2020 Report Share Posted January 12, 2020 Let's be honest if MD is as big as he was the last time I saw him then they'd have to cull a herd of Wildebeast to make his racesuit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they race at Arlington before but probably too small a track in reality Think I'd move to the grandstand from my usual veiw point around the start /finish line for that one if they did! Wouldn't feel too safe behind a bit of chip board and a crowd separator if one came through! . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzac Posted January 17, 2020 Report Share Posted January 17, 2020 I see Drew Kemp scored 9+2 and Jason Edwards 8+1 for team GB today. A minor international against Australia but our young reserves should return fit and up for the task, looking forward to seeing them at Arlington.

They could really kick on this year along with Leon Flint . I think Kemp in particular is on absolute bargain average. Really encouraging signs for Eastbourne in 2020. Yes granted lets see how tomorrow goes important to build on his performance. Edited January 17, 2020 by ProudtobeaBrummie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Drew has got his confidence back after last season and will kick on this year. Jason is really a season behind the other 2 and hopefully will get nearer their level this year, although still think his bike control is amazing for someone so young and relatively inexperienced, don't think I've ever seen him out of shape. If the speed progresses he will be some rider as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kemp spent the majority of last season as a second string for Sheffield, so should definitely raise his average at reserve for the Eagles! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Kemp will be taken into the Eagles nest and treated as part of the family, nurtured, looked after and sent on his way to a good career in the sport.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or better still one of our 3 future heat leaders along with Tom and Jason , unlikely but would be great if it happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hackett Posted January 22, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Drew Kemp was excellent as a guest and opposition rider in the National League at Arlington. Hopefully the OZ Adventure will mean he can start the season in good form and build his confidence from the start. Edwards will need to develop but if he can pick up 4/5 points at home that will be an excellent achievement. Tom Brennan + Kyle Newman give the second strings a solid look.

IronScorpion Posted January 22, 2020 Report Share Posted January 22, 2020 Will a few hours make much difference? Online SS could be just gone midnight. Clubs twitter could be early. SS in shops Thursday so will be available 4.30am ish plus local papers(which ours is out Thursday) might have them in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
