Never seen the word 'IF' used so much to describe a speedway rider ! 

He's a woeful signing....think I'd have saved 'Harris' as the last reveal ! :D

Come back when your team is revealed and we’ll compare! :rolleyes:

I’m sure Proctor will do a job for you , It doesn’t help with you been a Saturday track I think it restricts a few riders who ride on the continent on a Sunday . Ty was a victim of Hans Andersons average fitting at the wrong time for him last season .                        So here’s hoping that teams stay as injury free as possible in 2022 and there some great racing for all us genuine speedway fans

He wasn’t a victim, he rode shockingly for Leicester, and was rightly replaced

Underwhelming signing to finish the team off, the only positive is that it keeps Jye Etheridge in the reserve position, but I fear Proctor will be there soon enough. 

Yes and more pressure on Kyle.

I don’t see how.. Kyle starts at reserve… the lowest average in the team… if he bangs in 4-5 points regularly then that’s job done for him!

Penny is due to drop for Bickley as well. Just wonder if a 2nd season at the same track could do wonders for him. In the drew kemp mould that they've learnt their trade time to kick on. Seem to remember Stevie worrall was kicking about the same kind of level then all of a sudden jumped from about a 3 to 6.5 with the enemy been heat leader ever since

Woeful? He'd be exactly the kind of rider brum should have signed up for number 4 berth based on who is available! Experienced and knowledge of all tracks and more than capable of adding a point or point and a half on his 5.42 starting average

Who else do you guys have in the pipeline now then?

Gappmeier, Bates and Sedgman? At a push adam ellis?

Im lost to see who LR brings in, especially at no1 that can make you turn around and call proctor a woeful signing. As recently as 2019 he averaged 7.27 for Leicester. He is a steal on that basis

Think this season will end up being a "what could've been" for Berwick. If they'd just nailed that last signing it could've ended up being the best Bandits team in years and for me genuine title contenders. Proctor screams as a desperation signing to me and does show the lack of planning to go a near 2 points under the limit. 

 

Can only hope if its not working out with the initial side the promotion won't be shy to make a change.
