Fingers crossed we don't have them issues and George's average goes above 4.00 He is the less seniors of the 2 reserves afterall, so he has zero pressure and expectations, so hopefully he'll have a few weeks to be able to get used to the very strange track for him... Hope he's good because we could've got Ashley Morris on a 4.80ish average instead... I just can't wait to find out who our final signing is... Surely George Congreve at 6 and James Wright at 7 has to be the strongest reserve partnership in the league? Couple that with the 4 riders we've already got in the top 5, we may not be table toppers but at least we'll be in and around the playoffs imo (I know it's pretty early to say) I can't wait for the new season to begin... Same here. Itching to find out final signing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As Congreve hasn't ridden at Champ level yet, that's a bold prediction to make! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 3,020 Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) There's still plenty 4/5 averaged Brits without team places out there, so Newcastle can still be competitive hopefully, even if they can't get close to the 42.00 limit!
