Spl77 Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 To clear it up Harris and King were disappointing. Niels had some bad luck. We need some gaters next year along with someone who can ride the inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89buttons Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Fair enough all matters of opinion, from my perspective niels was winning two races that were rerun, in both reruns the opposing riders got big flyers that should have been pulled back particularly Musielak, and as we saw last night those that got put in front mostly stayed there.

Falcon1983 Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 This team has obviously rode above themselves most of the season so their averages will reflect that for some anyway so based on current average I'd keep Allen NKI but doubt he wants it The rest I would let go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Jason Doyle apart, I expected him to dominant proceedings. That was an average performance by his standards. I like him and want to see him excel. But I was disappointed tonight. But for re runs Niels would have had 14............... He doesnt really like Foxhall where as Swindon have top 5 or 6 that all tend to go well at our place I though Niels did fine last night King and to a lesser extent Harris were poor last night Edited October 16, 2019 by Gavan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offence, but as a neutral I viewed his signing as a means to make something of the season at a a very late stage. I guess making the final is a measure of success but has NKI really sparkled? Last time I saw him ride, he made the final in the GP in Torun alongside the best three in the world. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 It's as simple as this If NKI can gate and lead a race which is then stopped then he can gate, lead and win the rerun, no excuses really So none of this "would have scored 14" he didn't score 14 and was poor but not the worst rider If that was a grand prix final and he had a world title on the line you'd expect him to jump out the start no matter how many restarts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But how does that mean he wasn’t ‘up for it’? To me that phrase means he was not motivated and didn’t put the effort or commitment into his riding and I just don’t think that is the case at all. As I’ve said on another thread there isn’t necessarily a direct link between effort and points, especially on a track where if you miss the gate you are more often than not screwed.

siggysigalos Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Its been a very good season,dont think many of us expected to be in the Play Off final when our original 7 was announced,havent been to many meetings i will admit,but the few i have been to have been enjoyable,and although we didnt really do very well last night,it was still nice to be apart of play off final night at Foxhall. I do agree that 2 riders in particular were poor last night,Harris and Danny for me were well below par,Neils,for me was unlucky in a couple of heats,but sadly in the end Swindon were just better,apart from Batchelor,who again was very poor. I agree its a bit early to pick a 7,but i do love reading all your points,and i know i will get totally shot down here,as i believe it wont happen,but could we tempt Jason Doyle to Foxhall,or am i being stupid,speaking to some Swindon fans last night,they said he wouldnt be with them next season,i know its far fetched,but just putting it out there. I hope Jake Allen is retained,as Danny King and Cameron Heeps,and i also believe Richard Lawson has had a decent season,James Sargeant,Chriis Harris and Neils(for commitment reasons)would be the 3 id change. Great Crowd last night,brilliant to see Foxhall packed,well done to all supporters this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 With the news Poole are applying to drop in to the championship, we’d be daft not to quickly contact both Klindt and Grajczonek considering how well both men ride Foxhall. They won’t be short of offers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bash Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 I'd add Tobiasz Musielak to that list as well as Swindon will need to release riders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a 1.6 multiplier set to be in place and possibly a 38 point limit if there is an increase in teams good luck with that..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely they both fly at our place, Klindt especially......a rider is always happy with a good home base and Klindts 2 biggest away scores were both at Foxhall............. 1 hour ago, Skidder1 said: Including from Poole who own them both as assets.

And couldnt keep them both if they dropped down...............oh and Louis does have ownership and Ipswich will be top flight next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, but it’s naive to think riders won’t be spoken to and they WILL be spoken to by various promoters before the AGM regardless of whose “assets” they are. Planning for the following season doesn’t start as soon as the AGM is completed, we know it starts much earlier than that. Obviously contracts can’t be signed or anything set in stone until after the AGM as nobody can be certain what will happen. But the Poole riders will obviously be aware of Poole’s intentions now, and will almost certainly be making contingency plans if Poole’s application is accepted and they’d be quite right to do that. they’re not going to risk waiting on a ratification at the AGM before looking elsewhere for a top flight ride incase their options become limited IF and when that happens. That’s just common sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 I have it on very good authority that MF has already signed 2 riders - presumably two that will fit either SGBC or SGBP team buiulding?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted October 16, 2019 Report Share Posted October 16, 2019 Louis confirmed only a fortnight ago in an interview with Mike Bacon that he sees Ipswich’ future in the top flight. Things can obviously change very quickly but I’d be surprised if the club dropped back down so quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
