phillwhitewasmad Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 If he performs round the ewr for us like he did for Leicester will make us strong at reserve at home . Good signing who could put a point on his average Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scunny1 Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 If that is the rumoured team, I personally have doubts. It puts a lot of pressure on Jordan in the main body of the team. Lambo has had years of mediocrity and will not improve and is suspect away. Which ever way you dress it up, Aarnio let us down big time last season. Visa issue or not, he was not that impressive when he did ride for us. Personally ,if we aim to win at home Auty plus another, would be better option as second strings. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossy666 Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 5 out the 7 are good. I’ve seen all too often when u say you’d replace riders the wrath of rider support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree on a lot of points however Auty as a second string on a 7.37 average is a tad unrealistic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Rob is all about home wins then getting Auty in as a third heat leader, and therefore less pressure, will only help that. Whilst Shanes or Morris are decent young riders too and would realistically sign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think if Tero starts slow there is the very realistic prospect of brining Josh in providing he doesn’t sign for anyone else which by the sounds of his Twitter there’s nothing in the pipeline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillipsr Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 Josh isnt any better than Tero at Scunny if the aim is home wins… id go all out for Crump on averages around that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tero could get a bit of away form back, as in 2019 he averaged over 6 similar to Josh. Home form, both could average around 9 so I would think it was about who we could fit in to the team at the initial declared stage, who go well at the EWR. Nice to have Zaine in for 2022 but I would not class him as a track specialist after a few visits with Sheffield & Leicester. Maybe a track he likes & is suited too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IronScorpion Posted November 25, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 Last year, I heard a rumour very early on, that if Josh had had his testimonial then he would not be spending money on his bikes & 2021 would be his last year. If he has got his mojo back, again, then he needs to update his gear to keep up with the top guys & the improving ones which could give him a few more years in the sport. Has he got his head around those tyre issues as 1 win & 8 2nds from 13 rides was not a good performance at home to see but he can pick the brains off the other riders & management.

OldtimerRay Posted November 25, 2021 Report Share Posted November 25, 2021 From what I have heard on the grapevine and I could be wrong (er indoors always says I am ) Ryan Douglas is not a great fan ,perhaps why he never came back to Scunny after his year out, of Josh Auty so it is either one or the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
