SuzieQ Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Well, with August looming up fast, lets try and help Middlo decide on his Team GB Squad, basing this on current form in both EL and PL, Squad of 10 riders: So here is my squad: Mark Loram Scott Nicholls Lee Richardson David Norris Joe Screen Gary Havelock Chris Neath Danny Bird Dean Barker Carl Stonehewer There were so many others I could have picked, but David Howe and Chris Harris seem to be struggling at present.

Splatty Posted May 17, 2004 Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Looks about right to me Tabby - just hope that Bomber and David can pull things around otherwise we will have to wait even longer for the 'new crop' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzieQ Posted May 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2004 Sorry, I should also say that I would love to put Chris Louis in the team too, but then again I need someone decent in Comentary! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzybird Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 yep that too I Know I'm not allowed Sir Kelv in the team so................. we'll have him and Chris Louis Commentating (would rather them both in the team though) Mark Loram,Scott Nicholls,Lee Richardson,David Norris,Joe Screen,Gary Havelock Dean Barker,Carl Stonehewer. Joking apart I watched Sir Kelv at Eastbourne when he was a guest for Peterborough not very good at Eastie and took out his own team mate so probably best he's left on the trackside...... sorry Sir Kelv On saying that his performance at reserve for Arena so far this season surely he warrants a place in TEAM GB. For Butts can we have Leigh Lanham just for something nice to look at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtc Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Can we add Mr Crump cos he was born here?? What are the rules for riding in a national team? (place of birth, residency etc...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatface Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 My ten would be: Mark Loram, Scott Nicholls, Lee Richardson - our only true World Class riders David Norris - fine form Gary Havelock - ditto, good team man too Joe Screen - still capable at this level Andy Smith - well up to speed and deserves it Carl Stonehewer - excellent form Dean Barker - has showed a touch of class this season Chris Neath - only young Brit who has advanced at all this year Res - Stuart Robson - 100% trier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzybird Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Can we add Mr Crump cos he was born here?? Blimey dtc where you been? he made it quite clear after a GP round that the win was for Australia therefore he doesn't want to be a Brit........we might need him but we dont want him if he's going to be like that ok can we have Leigh Lanham as TEAMGB Mascot then pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Middlo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamonds_are_forever Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Can't believe only one person has down Stuart Robson! What a racer, he defo deserves his shot in the team! Although it depends how they prepare the track, if its gunna be like an ice rink I can see why he won't get picked, but give him some dirt & he'll fly!

Guest Shnikies Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Qualifier: (Eastbourne) Loram Richardson Norris Nicholls Barker Race-off/Final: (Poole) Loram Richardson Norris Nicholls Havelock(!) Other team members I'd have as Robson, Bird, Howe & Screen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuzieQ Posted May 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 Can't believe only one person has down Stuart Robson! What a racer, he defo deserves his shot in the team! Although it depends how they prepare the track, if its gunna be like an ice rink I can see why he won't get picked, but give him some dirt & he'll fly! It is very difficult to pick 10 riders and not miss a couple of good ones out! I would have put Chris Louis in mine and Stuart was another thought that I had but as I already had 10 riders that I feel can do a great job for Team GB I had to forgoe the others for now!

tone deaf Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Only 4 riders who are certs in my opinion - Loram, Nicholls, Richardson, Norris. Otherwise its between Screen, Havelock, Louis, Neath, Bird, Howe, Barker, Robson. Stoney? Not really sure. Smith? No thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JT Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Surely Joe Screen would ride at Eastbourne? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
