Falcon1983 Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 imagine if Guy took the reigns at Foxhall tho and it was his "toy" Not only would Witches become the most hated club in the country but you could expect a line up of something like 1. Tai Woffinden/Jason Doyle/Chris Holder/Kenneth Bjerre 2. Jake Allen 3. Danny King 4. Cameron Heeps 5. Nicolai Klindt 6. Nico Covatti 7. Tom Bacon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I missing something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Blue Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 I've heard a whisper that somebody maybe in negotiations to buy the Witches! Don't ask where I got it from as I was told in confidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Someone said to me down the pub the other week that there will be a new Co owner, not a complete takeover, and nothing to do with Buster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the ideal scenario. Keep the lifeblood of the club as co owner to do the day to day running of the place, while the other co owner with more financial muscle, helps to build potentially title winning sides..

Tom Bacon Don't think Tai would ride after what happened in past with Guy Nicholls. Doyle has already signed for 2020. Holder.... topping up pension Bjerre ... not a bad shout A n other ... better no 1s out there to tempt As the rest ... could be right.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Ultimately money talks, and I meant IF guy used it as a hobby I.e. lose a bit of money he could afford to bring in a Doyle or Woffy maybe, even tho doyle is signed I'm meaning the kind of calibre of rider as this is all make believe. If he came in as co owner that would be great with chris still doing the operational side as guy is still building his empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 It is a situation many have expected/hoped may be the case for a few years now Time will tell if this year is when it does. The club is in good hands either way 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcon1983 Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Was speaking to my polish friend Pawel who lives in Ipswich but has only ever been to Foxhall to support Krystian last season, he said if the Witches get a bigger named Pole then more from the local community would attend Foxhall, so how about this side. 1. Nicolai Klindt 7.43 2. Jake Allen 5.56 3. Danny King 6.83 4. Cameron Heeps 6.30 5. Piotr Pawlicki 7.32 6. Nico Covatti 5.27 7.

Baldyman Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 Is that Pavlicki the good one or the not so good one. Certainly nowhere near Swindon or Sheffield team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldyman Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) With a top heavy team like Swindon, they would only need a few points from their last, and would smash everyone at home, and win play offs by doing the same. They have riders that can all win races for fun. Having good reserves means jack poop when up against a team like Swindons,,, as they proved to us on more than one occasion last season Our team will do okay by reaching play offs again, but it won't win league .

Agreed So you would like to see for example this side at Foxhall if you had a choice (or similar) 1. Kenneth Bjerre 7.75 2. Jake Allen 5.56 3. Niels-Kristian Iversen 7.54 4. Cameron Heeps 6.30 5. Nicolai Klindt 7.43 6. Jye Etheridge 4.20 7. Tom Bacon 3.5ish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, i put a team like it a while back. Only a team like that could beat Swindon possibly. Edited November 27, 2019 by Baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
