ancient mariner 540 Posted January 18, 2017 Poor signing for Plymouth. Well, there's hardly a wealth of Heat Leaders out there and beggars can't be choosers. Kyle Hughes would hardly have been better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heathen1984 139 Posted January 18, 2017 My opinion and its a poor signing on that average, you will do well to finish above bottom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Halifaxtiger 5,318 Posted January 18, 2017 Well, there's hardly a wealth of Heat Leaders out there and beggars can't be choosers. Kyle Hughes would hardly have been better. I think you might well be right about beggars not being choosers although I'd say Hughes is better. I make no secret of my regard for Plymouth Speedway, its fans and, now, its new promotion. I can only hope that that team performs better than I think it will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nathan Mole 13 Posted January 18, 2017 I am thinking the Kyle may well be back at Kings Lynn this season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roguetrader 51 Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) This is obviously not turning out to be the team the new promotion wanted. Not sure what it is about Plymouth but they have never put together a team that could confidently compete for honours. Is it the location? There are now obviously some question marks about this team which has weakened by having to move Walker into the main body of the team. I really hope that the riders they have chosen repay the trust that has been put in them, particularly Boxall. There are much stronger teams around so a tough season ahead.

Ben91 1,743 Posted January 18, 2017 Two heat leaders who are notorious for their lack of reliability. Doesn't bode well for the Devils as far as I'm concerned. As I've said previously though Plymouth may get the best out of Boxall if he is riding for fun and enjoying his racing, the same could go for Compton. Both look like big gambles though considering the amount of team building points they take up combined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Speedway28 171 Posted January 18, 2017 Would be very concerned for the Plymouth promotion with the team they're putting out. Compton and Boxall have never been known for their reliability. Hopefully the admission price structure will still get fans through the gate. The location must be incredibly difficult to attract riders at National League level.

TMW 533 Posted January 18, 2017 Looks like Steve is happy to ride for enjoyment now if he is just going to do NL for Plymouth. Funnily enough we may see the best Boxall we have for a long time with not too much pressure on his shoulders. Shame he never kicked on he could have been a decent EL rider without a doubt if not better. I enjoy watching Boxall in any mood which is lucky for me as Jamie's Brundle and Birkinshaw don't ride anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Islander15 1,065 Posted January 18, 2017 Ok my guess was wrong. But as others have said, Compton is a much worse signing than Hughes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
