I'm so glad the Fords have a good relationship with Mark "the Undertaker" Phillips because you would be well advised not to pi££ him off. Those of us that know Mark consider him a hard working man of his word, top bloke all-round, he fully deserves any success coming Plymouth's way in '22.

The relationship is good having assisted last seasons Crump and Pedersen signings as well as setting-up the Keleher switch. With the Poole-based Garry May link as well i'm sure everything is fine.

No one said it wasn't.

One other point worth mentioning methinks is that we have 5 Brits in our starting septet :t:

So do Redcar and Plymouth...Newcastle and Leicester have 6 I think ?

But we haven't had 5 for quite a few years, so I thought it was worth a mention.  And it's good to see so many British boys in all the teams...I never meant it as a competition!

My post wasn't meant as a direct comparison....just promoting the positives of the Brits inclusion.

It's all we have, especially with Poland killing the sport in this country IMO.

Not criticising the Poles....after all, speedway is popular there most likely coz they're sh#te at football amongst other sports....(a whole new debate...) LOL

There is a general, encouraging, trend in seeing more British riders staffing CL squads.   Even Berwick, where they've been fairly thin on the ground, now have (at least) three this year.  Whatever the reason, more home riders moving through the leagues can only be good news.....

Lawson is a decent signing and will score well , hopefully we won't regret not having a stronger reserve.

 

 

....and becomes a full asset for Poole in a swap with Basso. Lets hope he's as much of a crowd-pleaser!

Richard Lawson is a very good speedway rider, but entertaining he is not. Not quite a gating tart but in 3 seasons think can count on 2 hands number of passes he had after 2nd bend
