What's happened to Ash?

Heavy fall last week while riding for Wolves, tried riding through the pain, but was advised to rest.

Anyone got any thoughts on what team they would like for next season. Here's who I would like. Wouldn't have a clue how the averages would add up but here goes.

Richie Worrall, Jason Garritty, Tero Aarnio, Josh Pickering, Ashley Morris,  Matty Wethers and one other.

I think Garritty would be a tremendous signing. He has stated Brough is one of his favourite tracks and I think he could put a point or two on his average. Although he might be hard to manage I would take a chance as I think he would put a few extra spectators through the turnstiles. I for one always look forward to watching him. Regardless though I think my choice would have the makings of an exciting team. No matter what I think we need a good clear out and freshen things up. This season was all about consolidating and went better than I thought. Nothing against the team we put out under difficult circumstances but most of this year's team will not improve their averages which means you will never have much chance to win anything. Thoughts?????

Not sure about Garrity. People have been saying that for the past few seasons, and supporters for whoever he rides for have always wanted him back. Yet he seems to change clubs every year. There must be an underlying reason for that.

Yes I realise he's had a few clubs but never really heard any promoters say they have had trouble with him although he is quite shall we say a bit different to other riders. Ha ha but he's a proper racer and entertainer. I know plenty of diamonds fans who would love him at the club. All about opinions though.

Yes totally agree. The season has probably ended too soon for Matty as he has hit some great form. I think there's definitely more improvement in him. Remember he missed all last season so took him a little time to get up to full steam.

I see on both the diamonds own website and on the bspa weekly round up the diamonds don't have a home fixture on September 23rd is that the home campaign finished or what other reason is there for yet another blank week?

Maybe it has something to do with completing you're official fixtures and the management don't want to put on a potentially loss making fixture.

We still have to complete the KOCup match against Worky, so 'we could' still have fixtures to run ;)

Rumours that Workington won't get the second leg run in time so may have to forefeit the tie. Not sure how true it is.
