Gazc 7,089 Posted March 19, 2018 5 minutes ago, MD said: Replacing a 2 pointer who got injured during the season was always going to be a problem but doing it before a wheel is turned adds another level of difficulty. Leaves an opportunity to restructure the team and give it more balance, there are some high averaged reserve pairings out there. The Facenna's arent shy about making hard nosed business decisions and I would have no hesitation in saying thanks but unfortunately .... to CV and using the combined points to have a higher averaged reserve if suitable riders could be found. The Scottish Cup meetings are challenges so we have a bit of time before the first official fixture where we are committed to that team. I get what you are saying but Sarj will be a strong reserve and i feel the balance especially in the top 5 is as good as any out there. I would leave as is as i say the JPB situation may only be temporary nobody knows what the situation is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It won't happen it will be a like for like change for JPB. Wether it is short term or for a longer period we will just have to see. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that JPB could now have problems for the future. The words used in the Glasgow press release virtually match those from Sheffield when he walked away from them. There is no doubt that the lad has the talent to be a decent rider, but know there has to questions raised about his heart, desire and determination to move his career forwards and how much he really wants it. Hopefully he can get himself sort out and use that talent that he has otherwise he faces a career riding in the National League only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do other tracks do this, presumably Poole but any others. The guys were great, nice to see Ian Beattie on it as well with some good information. Long may they continue this season. And be interesting to see the Tigers Live straight after meetings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
