*JJ Posted November 21, 2019 Report Share Posted November 21, 2019 3 hours ago, Islander15 said: 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth a punt on 3.19. never saw Thomsen or Perry do don't know how they compare. Edited November 21, 2019 by Col 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col Posted November 23, 2019 Report Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) 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.

The Dog Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 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! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthegearbutnaeidea Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 My guess is Barker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 7.59 for final rider, I believe. That rules out Covatti & Ellis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brummie Kev Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 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 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
