bloom89 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Do we have enough points left to possibly tempt Ludvig back over or has the ship sailed on that one and he's happily settled back in Sweden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds85 Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Wonder if Ellis Perks may be making a comeback like was rumoured last year possibly Lasse Bjerre if he isn't chased out of the stadium... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha no I haven't I take it he's been poor then? In fairness he is a very frustrating rider brilliant to watch at brough at times but also the complete opposite and pathetic some of his away performances.

But to be fair to any "second strings/reserve level" riders riding in Sweden, they race against the absolute best in the world, both alongside, and against.. A "bit" easier for that level of rider to score points over here I would think.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like most things I guess it probably comes down to whether it's worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds85 Posted November 18, 2021 Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) Bit of a wildcard suggestion, but I wonder if Nico Covatti would fit as our number 3? Remember him guesting for us at home a few seasons ago and not only did he score points, he was highly entertaining and his style was like nothing else I've seen. Would be a brilliant signing imo if he's still racing... Just thought I'd bump the thread up a little bit with some discussion lol Edited November 18, 2021 by Diamonds85 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointswise with George being on a 4 apparently, we would have just about 6pts (depends on the %age reduction applied to other riders) so the likes of Kyle Newman would fit. Had we gone with Archie on a 2 we could have had someone like Ritchie W. Imagine heats 13 and 15 with a Ritchie and Bradley Dean our representatives.

The way the rumours are going about Richie agreeing to join this team then changing his mind I’m glad we didn’t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Richie would have chosen us over Leicester anyway... I am happy with the team we've got so far, a nice 3rd heat leader or number 4 to team up with Starkey will do me... I calculate we have 6.51 left, but see no obvious signings near that average... The only riders I can think of are mid to high 5s, and it would be a shame to waste nearly a whole point... Kyle Newman is the obvious name that springs to mind, but he ain't as strong of a 3rd heat leader as I'd like us to sign... 7 minutes ago, Diamondboy said: Stop having an opinion, you know it’s not allowed. Lol I get the feeling that there's a lot of 'drama' going on behind closed doors up there... What a shame, I thought things were becoming more positive...

Brough Diamond Posted November 18, 2021 Report Share Posted November 18, 2021 Tero is very close to fitting if we have around 6.5 and there are adjustments for the Eastbourne situation. Needs to sort his visa according to other threads 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
