If it turns out to be Ellis/Covatti and Lawlor next then it’s a much better balanced team by the Mason’s. Decent top end strength with Harris & Ellis able to handle most heats 13 & 15 and Garrity comes up with the odd meeting where he’s unbeatable too. Hopefully they aren’t relying on away wins in Scotland! Paco should score well at reserve and with Shanes or Morris at second string they’ll always have a decent reserve this coming year without any foreigners who don’t know the tracks and are struggling to compete. 

No Ellis next year; he's not doing the CL allegedly.  It's 'two new names', probably a 7 and a 3 point riders at a guess.

Yes and they are valid and you could be proved right and the injury side of thing's still concern me maybe Kent might take a punt.?

Danyon progressed a lot this year and had Adam Roynon in his pit most meetings and has learnt that the throttle goes both ways think he will defo do a turn for whoever he signs for

I only saw Hume once, he was certainly quick, if a little erratic. Worth a punt on 3.19. never saw Thomsen or Perry do don't know how they compare.

Having looked through unsigned riders for 2020, with 2019 averages. Can't see anything other than a 8 pointer & a 2 pointer being sought. Just no riders fit with Thomsen or Hume/Perry.

Good to have Jack at the Barr, has always ridden it well in the past and could be a shrewd signing at reserve. Has enough quality and will have a point to prove too. Promotion doing a superb job with the team and I reckon our last rider could well be another great signing. Fingers crossed!

My guess is Barker

Would rather have Barker over Jonasson, but I can't see us signing  Barker.....I don't think he gets on with Garritty?

As for Jack Thomas? he's got bags of potential, so well worth a punt on a 2 average!

B'ham management are really pulling out all the stops this season.....well done boys!

Jack Thomas is a terrific signing on that average imo, I honestly thought his average was between 4 and 5 as hes a rider I've always rated. He can definitely add a few points onto that! Just one rider to sign and if we can sign a solid heat leader then I think we have a good side, so different from the start of last season anyway. Credit to the management with the side they have put together

Of riders not signed up yet ? Mat Whethers-Kev Doolan both go well at PB !

Kev Doolan would never ride for another team bar Berwick, he’s stepped back from racing to help out behind the scenes at the club and is a firefighter in the town, although can expect him to step in for us should any injuries happen.

Barker would be a good shout though for the grippy track that Shanes, Harris and Garrity need.
