The White Knight 9,039 Posted November 20, 2017 We are. That is very good News to hear Dave. Now for the bad News - you can expect me to return to Brough Park next Season and hopefully Redcar now and again depending on Health and Weather.. Not every week but as often as I can. Whilst I am not thrilled about the Tac. Sub. Rule - I am delighted that the Double Points is consigned to the dustbin of history where it belongs. The BSPA have come part way to satisfying me with their decision on Double Points, and it would be churlish not to acknowledge that by changing my stance. Looking forward to the new Season now - look forward to meeting up Dave. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

erniew 163 Posted November 20, 2017 After chatting to Danny Phillips at the back end of last season, he is keen to return to Newcastle if we want him. Remember, when he got injured, he was one meeting away from a hike in his average, so could be a good shout at 7. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mauger65 202 Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) great news how the team building lol 1 r worrall 8.51 s worrell 9.02 s Worrall 9.02 2 aarnio 4.97 newman 6.25 morris 4.72 3 kus 7.03 4 lindgren 6.94 5 summers 8.21 rose 6.49 r Worrall 8.51 6 morris 4.72 brandford 3.94 7 philips 2.00 total 42.38 42.45 42.16 there you are simples lol despite being a critic of danny previously.... he was about to up his average before his injury so at 7 on 2 i think he is a bargain we must have a strong reserve .......... ashley at 6 no brainer lindgren and kus are our assets and solid middle order that leaves 21.81 for the 2 heat leaders and no 2 with tac subs u really want 2 heat leaders and there were only 18 over 8 points last year ....... so they are gonna be highly sought after ..... especially as there only 2 other riders above 7.5!!!!! with lambert, morris and holder possibly leaving the league that leaves just 15 between 11 teams !!!!!!!!!!

NJC71 388 Posted November 20, 2017 (edited) With no restrictions next seasons reserve pairings will be much stronger than the last couple of seasons. Danny would be a big gamble and probably find it too tough, especially coming back from such a bad injury. NL would be a better starting point surely.

bringbackHalifax 238 Posted November 20, 2017 Steve and Richie sorted elsewhere. Would like Rene in there somewhere Might be hard for only 10 league, 3 trophy and 1KOcup match to attract riders who do not double up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would like Rene in there somewhere Might be hard for only 10 league, 3 trophy and 1KOcup match to attract riders who do not double up. If it is still home and away twice (they haven't said either way!) that's 40 League matches 6 Trophy and at least 2 KO cup matches (plus the usual pre-season challenges) and we struggled to get them all in last season!!

I think Pearson said 1 home 1 away for the Championship in his "video" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bringbackHalifax 238 Posted November 20, 2017 And also on Edinburgh twitter Start in April and finish end of Aug and that is 22 Sunday’s to fit in 14 fixtures with poss 2play offs but Sep and Oct give 9more Sunday’s and poss 2 more KO cup So 31 Sunday’s to fit in 18 meetings means no continuity in my eyes and a rider will struggle to survive on 28 guaranteed fixtures.

The White Knight 9,039 Posted November 20, 2017 Just watched the Video and I enjoyed it. Nigel put the points across clearly and concisely. Very good I thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
