I’d previously mentioned Ben Morley and got shot down for it but he certainly helped Plymouth beat Poole on Tuesday by scoring paid ten. whilst admirable keeping faith with George he isn’t what you need at the moment. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ben Morley good option if he's to replace Congreve. I was at Plymouth vs Poole & he more than did his job. I also saw him ride at Leicester vs Redcar, he battled away but bigger tracks no good for him, he's too slow. Shud do ok round Brough Park, that's all Newcastle need at the mo. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No-one shot you down IMO… simply said Plymouth is more Ben’s style of track! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, but wouldn't that be like hindering the progress of someone who might improve and replacing them with someone that wont? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The counter argument; Newcastle need to bring some riders in that will immediately strengthen the team at home therefore increasing the chances of winning Newcastle need to start winning at home or the inevitable will happen & the crowd will start to drift away. I don't think Newcastle's circumstances allow any more time to wait for rider improvement especially from a rider who is so young & new to British speedway.
