Joe Alcock would be the best option, but I've read he's not riding this year. Or how about?

Fozzie4388 Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Few weeks ago I'm sure it said that they had sorted 6 riders out and they had 4. Something to play with for the last spot so I assume the 2nd reserve is a 3pter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could easily add Woods, Woolley, king and Davies to the list of riders who have had multiple chances and done little with it. Be nice to see a Rookie like Budd or Goldsborough get a chance 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Has Dicken been posting some blistering practice performances over the winter? I would have expected more ripples if he was. Otherwise im questioning the fanfare other than the old Stags link because previous track records at NDL and even MDL were never anything to get excited about.

4BenMoran Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 What would Parkinson-Blackburn come in on? Know he’s burnt a few bridges in the past but one of few riders at this level who will have had plenty laps around Owlerton where half the home meetings will be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But im sure if someone provided bikes, kit, spares, a van and throw in a few quid JPB would show up and do a half arsed job. Perhaps Ben Hopwood, Scott Campos or Lewis Bridger could be tempted back too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
