Yearbyred 1,092 Posted December 10, 2019 As a member of the speedway world can I say I’m not “shocked to the core.” Interesting “wrighting” style on the Newcastle website these days. Vissing is solid and I really like Connor Mountain as a prospect. Had some excellent rides at Redcar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I appreciate you're not very bright, and you're trying to make a joke, but he rode every season between 2003-2015. Can you explain how many comebacks someone can make when they ride 13 years in succession? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dandelion 775 Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) The main question now, is James Wright 2.00 or 4.00? (Last rode for Glasgow in 2013, achieving a 6.66 average, Rob Ledwith's 20+ year average stood so I imagine this one might and he'll be on a 4.00 rather than a 2.00?) If it's 2.00 we have 14.12 to play with If it's 4.00 we have 12.12 to play with At least it looks like we'll have strong reserves James could be the signing of the year if he's a 2.00... Don't know very much about him tbh... Hope he's on a 2.00 so we can fit Rene in and still have 6.93 to play with... Whoever that may be 1. Claus Vissing 8.43 DEN 2. Max Clegg 4.92 GBR 3. 4. Matthew Wethers 6.92 AUS 5. 6. Connor Mountain 4.61 GBR 7. James Wright 2.00 GBR Fill in the blanks... 14.12 to play with Edited December 10, 2019 by Dandelion 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ragdoll64 633 Posted December 10, 2019 Glad to see Claus fixed up. He was brilliant for Glasgow this year. Hope James comes back strong. He was immense in his day but suffered badly with lack of confidence before retiring. Could be a trump card on a 4.0 average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
