And presumably that's why he was at the End of Season bash on Friday evening - discussing terms for when he comes back into the team just before the play-offs 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DW Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 I’ve heard Flint’s name also, which doesn’t fill me full of confidence, given how poor he is around Ashfield. Pearson not so sure. Had some good scores for Plymouth but he would start in the 1-5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally next season was ideal for us to make the next step up but alas not to be. I agree gaz ..I'm not that keen on paying more money for a Continuing weakened product, look at the team Sheffield are preparing & look at us night & day the difference why wo t glasgow at least give it a try Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My own thoughts are to better yourself as a club is to compete with the best. Bottom line it’s there money and there decision not to take that next step. Problem with the weakening of this league may put some off dependant on the opposition . I am sure there will be more than a few will pick and choose what meetings they attend . If that is our 1-7 then it doesn’t exactly wet the appetite with what we have had the past few seasons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t argue with that Gazc……if it IS the team though, it will still have my support but I was hoping that a surprise signing was going to be pulled out of the hat…….

To be fair Paul has usually done very well for us in the past, although a bit injury prone , however with good machinery, he should definitely increase his current average. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a rider who has ridden all these year and can’t sort out decent machinery tells me something I’m afraid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaizer Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 To an extent I understand going for a predominantly British side. Out with bombers long track commitments shouldn't be great deal involved with rearranging meetings unlike this season. But can't pretend I'm excited by that 7. Worrall, solid though he is, doesn't replace basso in points and certainly not in entertainment value. Let's hope the rumours are wrong lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
