NKI is a good signing Now is when we see if the team that was agreed got butchered so bustered. If it's the latter there will be a lot of questions he needs to answer. If the team has been signed as suggested, why haven’t they just announced them? The new fella has already took responsibility for the lack of information and length of time getting riders announced and admitted it was due to the technicalities of his involvement which has now been resolved. If that’s the case, why make the supporters wait even longer now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niels Kristian Iversen 7.59 Chris Holder 7.47 Ben Basso 6.81 Hans Andersen 4.93 Ben Cook 4.06 30.86 Jordan Jenkins RS ........... would leave 8.14 for the final rider. Kenneth Bjerre, Rasmus Jensen, Anders Thomsen, or a new 8.00 assessed rider all fit very very nicely. Richie worrall unfortunately 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Time to give Gasser90 credit where credits due me thinks, Basically the club have confirmed NKI as the No.1 by saying 'lead by example' therefore that basically says Chris Holder is at 5 considering we've not been linked with any other rider on a 7.00-7.58. Richie Worrall is a lock and he's just left a like on the NKI post too. Edited January 26, 2023 by TTT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 Don't really get the misgivings or doubts about NKI, always gives his best and is still a very good rider.in my opinion not many riders wil have a higher average than him at the end of the season. Like most riders he has had a few injuries but he is fully fit now so should be a great signing. Really nice guy too, can't see any reason why he shouldn't have a good season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see maybe three of them because I’ve heard similar, but possibly not all four. We’ll see. Quoting my own post I know, but after reading todays Star it makes more sense. The “young sensational racers” part wasn’t about the riders still to be named, it was those already signed, Basso, Cook and Jenkins. Those would be surrounded by “old hands”, or should that be “old Hans” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 (edited) Nothing wrong with NKI signing, He's a very good signing, Years of track knowledge around Peterborough, Years of experience riding on tracks produced by Buster. Every rider is prone to injury, So I'm not worried about his recent injury record because one bad crash can end anyone's season at any moment. Don't forget that NKI won races for fun on his visit to BV last year when the vast majority of visiting HL's couldn't buy a win around the place. Now this is where the fun or disaster starts and to me today makes everything points towards Gasser90's info being 100% spot on. Tungate = Title Challenge Andersen = Wooden spoon as well as everything being a waste of time, money and effort on everyone's behalf.

The chap seems full of hyperbole so I’d take what he says about the strength of the team and a title charge with caution. BUT, still three to confirm so best to wait and see, things can always still change until riders are officially announced.

TTT Posted January 26, 2023 Report Share Posted January 26, 2023 The real blame lies with Buster, Carl and Dale if / when the inevitable let down happens. All three of them are experienced enough to a point where they should be having a word with Tomalin and advising him to hold back on making public statements we wont be able to back up on track as well as setting out goals that aren't achievable or realistic. Instead they've basically just stood around watching the new promoter dig himself a hole from the get go tbh if the last one is Hans Andersen. Where's Buster this winter? He's been as quiet as a mouse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
