A few of us travelled up from Plymouth, well worth all the rain just to watch Bjarne and Jason (Bjarne was out standing) the rest of the Gladiators put a lot of effort in but could not get off the line! A lot more yet to come from Jason, still a very polished rider (every Scunthorpe rider was giving 110 % to try and beat him)!! First away meeting, first meeting as a team. Flint put 110 % effort in well done and thank you for standing in. The Scunthorpe team had there set up right plus had track time in so had the edge. Fingers crossed the young riders in the Plymouth team get a fair chance to show what they can do. Yes the track been better. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted May 25, 2021 Report Share Posted May 25, 2021 Getting the in form Flint in for the injured Akins is a handy bonus (i must say i thought it would be an unattached rising star rather than other clubs rider but s a whole other discussion). Next home meeting is going to be very important for the zero men, its one thing to struggle on the road but if Cook, Ruml and Goret don't get going at home its going to be a long season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted May 28, 2021 Report Share Posted May 28, 2021 Limited options as replacements. Andrews is the more obvious "like for like" or wait until the first set of averages apply and Knight is probably a stronger option? The extra points are likely to be needed elsewhere though......

Nathan Stoneman would be my first choice if available! I did think this season was the break through season for Henry ,just hope he comes back stronger when the time comes. Like many others I wish him all the very best with the treatment and wish him all the very best with his recovery. Look forward to your return.

How about Nathan Stoneman on Henry Atkins bikes - that would be an option! With Mike Atkins as main team sponsor could be a possibility......... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted May 29, 2021 Report Share Posted May 29, 2021 Stoneman is a gamble at the best of times especially at CL level but with no other league racing to keep him sharp it strikes me as highly unlikely. Id still wager it will be guests for a while then Knight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or could they get Bowtell to become a rising star and use the added points at the first set of averages to sign someone even better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Knight is, so can't be a rising star. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of questionable inclusions but if he is on there hes eligible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherborne Green Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 I see Plymouth are announcing their first change of the season at noon tomorrow. A replacement for Henry I would think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
