Phil The Ace 2,860 Posted October 25, 2021 Bangs as said hes not doing UK for another 2 years at least, by that time he might even have outgrown UK, so don't think we will be seeing him on these shores Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Berge had more moments, would start on a lower average & has visited the other tracks before! Why would he start on a lower average? Min 4 for both Edited October 25, 2021 by Baldyman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We still have enough riders British and foreign to go around and a next generation coming through, blooding them gradually is what will keep them in the sport Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Min 4 for both Berge would be on his previous British average wherever obtained converted or otherwise. PHB would be new "International" rider, 7:50... I'd have thought.

mikebv 10,268 Posted October 26, 2021 Surely Batchelor will be considered by most teams? Just over a 5 point average... The NSS could be perfect for him as a home track to get back to somewhere like he was.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If we do go top heavy and get Bewley and fricke, which I now suspect we will then batchelor is a must as he can be that low average thst you will need to hopefully put a few points on there average. And ignoring this year where Sheffield. Makes or breaks you, he usually goes good at NSS. One thing belle vue need is riders who can ride NSS, that's where we seem to always loose it. I'd much rather win all home and loose all away than win a few at home and more away. Winning at home is what keeps the crowd and also a big home wins always puts you in good shape in a 2 legged semi/final 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to look at riders that looks like they will improve there average and he stands out at doing that. Batchelor is a lot better than that average. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Batchelor is a lot better than that average. And 'if' he has Bewley and Fricke in the same team with him the pressure will be off to a certain degree.. As well as providing him with a spur to measure improvement for himself... No way should a rider of Batchelor's capability be running such a low average, therefore he has to be worth a punt I would say... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) Think Batch will be on most if not all teams list. He aint all that and is a whinging so and so,,, but he could and should improve his average. Okay at some tracks it might not be a lot,,, but it certainly won't go down. And in the strange world of speedway,, have an awful season, and be the most wanted the season after.
