I hope you are joking because he currently rides in the championship and I think you should go have a look at his average 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Championship heat leader Bailey is not! This year, second string, yes. At 38 points, Connor might be a heat leader, but at the least, a strong second string. We've all got to adjust our expectations of who fits where. Half the heat leaders might be unemployed next year, and will come back in 2025 to replace the 2024 heat leaders, whose averages will increase so much they become unemployable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearing Connor will be back at Glasgow next year was always the plan to send him out this season to gain more experience. Never say never though but fantastic to see the Comets back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out on the very same limb as they were in 1970 to 1981 and 1999 to 2018......during both of those periods I recall very much of seeing a great many away followers at Derwent Park....then enjoying a pint with many post meeting. Workington is not on Mars ok.??? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aries Posted October 15, 2023 Report Share Posted October 15, 2023 Great to see Worky return to the Championship. I’m hearing the Championship will be considerably watered down from this years version, with double uppers being extremely limited. We’ll see.

I’m guessing that’s to try and accommodate a fair few of the NDL riders in to the Championship who’ll otherwise be out of a job/quit?

Cook looks amazing obvious choice but brings his own issues. Lawson would be a more reliable option. Anyone from the 2018 lot an option? Adam Roynon is from pretty near (just down t'road!!).
