Need a replacement for Iversen and I’m afraid Kerrs time is up now 

Kerr's point came against Toft who pulled up on lap 1.

I can see guests/RR being used for NKI,and then probably NKI returning.Does it matter now,the future isn't that bright for our season again.

I was well happy we won but found it such a frustrating watch as Bomber is carrying us and there are consistently 3 riders not doing it for us. I also disagree that tacticaly we got it right..exciting end to the night but I'm afraid this team won't make the play offs.

If we don't want to finish bottom again we need to be ruthless.. We need someone in for NKI. If we then have points to play with, we need to look again to see what can be done.  i know it may seem harsh, but how many times have we been here. imho Lewi ain't a 1-5 rider in this league, and TJ being the highest average reserve in the league scored 7 from 5 tonight. Connor Mountain 5 from 4 .... Jye 7 from 4 ... Basso 14 from 7 .... Riss 16 from 7.  The were  positives, Richard and Josh back to winning races and Richie doing well in the 1-5.

Yes i'm on one tonight.

Which of the top 4 do you think you can overhaul? Looks absolutely certain to me that Lynn and Peterborough are the two that miss out

While is mathematically possible there is always hope that it can happen however unlikely.

Probably Wolves.

They are definitely self employed. (I'm an a accountant specialising in tax) and I know people who sort out speedway riders tax affairs.

You may be right although there is a difference between self employed for tax purposes and having an employment status of self employed. It is complex though :) https://www.gov.uk/employment-status/worker

None.

Nine points behind Wolves with twelve meetings (or three fifths of the fixtures) left, its certainly doable. Might need a ruthless change or two, a bit of a punt on a new face from abroad and a dodgy postponement while Puk is away ;) but it could happen. We have three matches left against Wolves don't forget. If we can string two or three results together, get on a roll and put some pressure on them you never know.

Harris is absolutely flying this season, and fair play too him deserves it!!! Nicholls looked on the pace in a few rides and off it in others, but as for Hans I’m genuinely lost for words, he is ruining his legendary status with this club, absolutely woeful, if he’s had 3 good meetings this season that’s your lot. Can’t believe I’m saying this but his time is up, needs too go. As for taking him too the pairs I think that’s a crazy decision. Not an ulrich fan but would take him over Hans

Rr would of been better than one lap and then put more pressure on the struggling members of the team 

I’m not convinced slightly completely that that’s all it is I think somethings seems up with tofty in general which is a great shame, just struggled for any sort of consistency

One rider dropping off form wise you could expect but 5 of them,   Ostergaard,  Andersen,  MPT,  Nicholls and Palin all at once  is really strange

I admit to not following any other league but the UK, but i think i see what you are saying :P. What ever happens next season, time is up for TJ and Lewi.

That was obvious a month and half ago.  At least Stars have the cup & pairs.

Never, with the exception of Ipswich the other teams are too abject at Monmore.

I think Wolves look a decent side but they never seem to ride well at the same time even at home. Leon Flint looked really good at Poole the other day but struggled at home, I know it's a different league but he should be able to get a decent score at home.

Hans Andersen is a very lucky man too. Only reason why he's still here is because of what he's done for us in the past. Would've been sacked if he wasn't a club legend imo.

I would suggest that the only reason he's still in the team is due to the lack of riders willing/able to ride in the UK at the moment, under "normal" circumstances he'd be long gone

He said earlier in the season, just after his 18 pointer, that he's riding an engine bought for him by a sponsor. If you remember, before that he was just as bad as the rest of the team... let's hope it doesn't go pop anytime soon!
