Marky_Mark 55 Posted May 11, 2022 I honestly don’t understand what all the fuss is about using guests. Plymouth started the season with a full 7 riders and have lost 2 to serious injuries and 1 rider has quit the team so the situation is not of their own making. We know from pre season that teams were struggling to even fill their teams so there isn’t going to be a long list of riders out there to replace them with. As a spectator, I would rather spend my money going to to a meeting and watching a team with guests if needs be in order to make it a good meeting to watch with similar strength teams on track rather than punish their misfortune. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doners123 85 Posted May 13, 2022 2 confirmed new reserves full time for Plymouth. Ben Morley and Harry Mcgurk. Ben is an obvious one and we know rides the home track well and Harry is by all accounts a bright prospect and hopefully he can add and develop. search for a number one continues but can’t be disappointed with the effort mark and Gary are putting in by trying at-least 16 different riders 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ben has proven this season and in previous years that he's very good at Plymouth, although I don't think he'll do much away. As for Harry he's probably the best NL rider out there not with a team and I wish him all the best. Good luck to them both! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triple.H. 1,979 Posted May 14, 2022 Winning at home is good for business Ben Morley will beat a fair few Heat Leaders at home Away from home if he picks up 3-5 points he could win you the title 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I simply go to watch and hope I see a decent meeting.There is no credibility in GB in Team speedway for the last few seasons. Problem is can’t see crowd levels increasing dramatically at many Clubs.Riders demands are getting beyond the viable levelI fear.Can only the see the standard of rider dropping.Still could be entertaining but Admission Prices are getting “over the top” for a lot of fans IMO,making regular attendance doubtful.
