Heathen1984 139 Posted July 24, 2017 You say not true but it was him that put it on facebook, so he must be lying I suppose. Govier prob only a temp aswell, obviously hoping burton will be back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heathen1984 139 Posted July 24, 2017 Yeh more than likely, he was hoping for good news on 7th Aug on next appointment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diamond_ren 209 Posted July 25, 2017 Is letting Rutherford go really that harsh? He's been back over here a couple of seasons now and his average has just dropped from what he came back into the league on last season. Rather see a young Brit get a place and not score many points than an average foreigner taking up a potential team place a young English rider could have 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,050 Posted July 28, 2017 Whilst I accept that the Hall to Cradley move is perfectly legal IMO it makes a complete mockery of what the NL is supposed to be there for, seems some clubs have adopted a win at all costs. Getting Hall on a 6pt average just makes it worse. http://www.cradleyheathens.co/news.php?extend.1705 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting Hall on a 6pt average just makes it worse. http://www.cradleyheathens.co/news.php?extend.1705 Maybe he'll help the kids with his knowledge and experience, imo each NL team should have at least one of them, as like a captain figure... Helps with set ups and riding techniques... And he might even teach them a thing or two about kicking people while they're down Not a huge fan of Hall personally, but I'm glad he's got a team place and I'm glad the NL allows riders like him into the league... (on proper averages I must add) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heathen1984 139 Posted July 28, 2017 Win at all costs, we have a rider injured so whats the prob with havin a full 7 team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diamond_ren 209 Posted July 28, 2017 There are some really good riders in the National league I can't see Hall having it all his own way, especially if he's on the equipment he's been using the last couple of seasons. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heathen1984 139 Posted July 28, 2017 Maybe not but we have a rider injured and we av signed the best available, dont see the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruno 1,790 Posted July 28, 2017 I'm proberly in a minority of heathen fans but would have preferred a kid, might mean we're out the play offs but it's supposed to be a development league. Just my views 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Islander15 1,062 Posted July 28, 2017 Teams have to stay competitive and Hall does that. A kid wouldn't have done and fans would've walked away. However this is completely legal but why Birmingham were incorrectly blocked in making this move, but Cradley have been allowed to make it seems unfair. But that's the inconsistency decisions the NL has come to unfortunately. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
