It's just my assumption that as soon as Leicester make a team change, and the same rider is at Birmingham post on here start to spread gossip. ie back stabbing . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiveusaB Posted June 13, 2023 Report Share Posted June 13, 2023 Well, with one eye on the uncertain future of PB, it's possibly a good move by Leicester to allow Dickson to get acquainted with the B'ham fans ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So passed it over to the parent to do it! At least do it on facetime or something, so kinda face to face! I think you will find that communication through the twins father Darren is the family’s preferred method as the same happened to Joe at Scunthorpe Rob Godfrey let Darren know that they were making team changes .

He's one of three co-promoters as well as team manager. The other two are Dave Darcy and one of the Bates. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick presumably drop to about 8 gives you 2.5 to play with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough I know not had many qualifying meetings this season but thought drop more than that. Is it 10 or 20 meetings? Does anyone really know?

szkocjasid Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 (edited) It's quite hard to judge how good / bad riders are performing, only going by their scores. Many are suggesting dropping Joe T rather than James P. Based solely on their scores, makes perfect sense, however if James was at 6 & Joe at 7, would their scoring be different? At tonights match, Pearson beat Kinsley 2-1 but didn't beat any other riders, while Joe fell in heat 2, but then never met another reserve, only racing Oxford's in form top 5! I guess you'd have to be at the match to judge them better? Edited June 14, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you'd have to be at the match to judge them better? Pearson was miles better than Joe tonight (and Dan was pretty underwhelming too). However I would be very wary about reading too much into a single match on a very tricky track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPEEDY69 Posted June 14, 2023 Report Share Posted June 14, 2023 I think the Thompsons may have reached their level, not seen much in the way of progress this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
