  1. If you read a few posts up Hell no!! I didn't enjoy watching him THAT much o.o

    What about Max Clegg and Ben Basford? Have the Basfords at reserve Oops, forgot about Lee Geary, oh well Grasstrack with a bit of concrete sticking out of the track Hey, you know that Pipe fella, brings in ALL the ladies
  4. Well compared to the rest of the Panthers... He looked good Plus, that fall in heat 15, to get up from that was good in my eyes, looked very nasty I was lucky to even make this meeting, I was supposed to be going home to Finland but that got delayed until today, so I'm just glad I got to see some racing!!
  5. Think we know too... Feel a bit sorry for Connor tbh because he tries his heart out, but the rules have just chucked a young Brit into the deep end, it's destroying him Was really impressed with Bacon... To have lead Steve for two laps at Brough is an amazing effort Shame he couldn't quite hold on, a little more experience and maybe he could... Hopefully Ged dumps him, then... BRING IN BACON!! Then we wouldn't have to drop the busy one and people won't get their knickers in a twist... Assuming Bacon keeps below 2.19 Although expect another 47 opinions from me when the new averages come out Also was impressed by Starke and Ostergaard

    That's why I think we should give him his opportunity to move onwards and upwards for his and the team's sake... Plus now I've realized Rene could fit in, I want that to happen xD I've always wanted to see the Spillers race in this country, more than just a short while at Eastbourne, but I don't think they'd be much better than what we have now (for now, think they will both be awesome in a few years time, as will Connor, I'm sure) Well... I'd prefer to replace him with Rene, but you're right, I didn't realize how many leagues Brady raced in too, I thought it was just Poole and Sweden... how would he have clashes with Poole though? They're a Wednesday night track and no other team in the PL rides on a Sunday and no CL team rides on a Wednesday... So that doesn't really mean we'll miss him for Poole I wouldn't mind 6 points from a reserve...
  7. Not sure it will be as simple as some people are suggesting, but I think we'll still get the victory, though I won't be able to make this one as I'll be in Finland come the end of the meeting

    I dunno, I just want my team to win is all, and I don't see us doing that with what we have now We all have our opinions, plus, I've always loved Rene, so any way I can fit him into my team, I would

    Well... Yeah, thing is with Ludvig, he's either untouchable, or gets 3 or 4 points Even I admit he's inconsistent, although he hasn't really been too bad thins year I'm glad he's at number 4 personally, he's a great second string

    Newcastle 2017

    I'm not questioning his commitment because he's not been here, but Newcastle must be far down his list of priorities in his head Poland Sweden Germany First tier Britain Second tier Britain Where would we come in that list I wonder? Also... It's a very busy schedule... Will he tire, become inconsistent? Like Ludvig sometimes does during the Swedish season?

    Newcastle 2017

    Yes, Liam would be much strong than Connor (no offence) Especially at reserve Ben Hopwood and Liam Carr at reserve would be pretty good Our top 5 would still be one of the strongest imo with improved reserves, makes us more of a team, not a 5 man team Lewis Rose is already 3rd heat leader and I think he's doing a cracking job So yes, I would take Liam Carr, although I'd prefer Zach This is all just hypothetical anyway, because I don't think anything is going to change unless there's an injury (And please god don't let there be one) But it's fun to see what COULD happen

    Is that how it works? I didn't realize whoever had the higher average went to 6, I thought it was just promotion chooses Anyway, he'd make a good number 6 too

    I second that But Yorkshire and Teesside accents are sooo different

    Newcastle 2017

    But the only way to fix that is by sacrificing some of the 1-5 and Lambert (in MY opinion) is the rider that makes most sense, AS LONG as we could get a heat leader replacement (Rene, Matej are both capable heat leaders) And they would both free up an extra point or so at reserve... Which gives us the chance to bring Liam Carr or Zach W into number 7, and they'd be some of the best 7s in the league IMO... That's just my opinion anyway... We're not going to win anything with our reserves, but we might win something with Rene and Zach or Rene and Liam for example... Maybe I have been a bit harsh on Robert, but I don't mean it personally (Not that he'd care what I think anyway lol) But he does have an extremely busy schedule, which is a big disadvantage when he's not here... I think someone like Rene or Matej would miss less meetings, and I know Robert hasn't missed many..... YET, but that could make the difference at the end of the day and I'm still sticking by my opinion Robert and Connor Out Rene and Zach in Maybe next year for Connor, when he's better and got his confidence back... He's out of his depth

    God no, lol... Although Zach W instead of Liam carr for my suggestion, didn't think of him Zach and Brady in, Robert and Connor out I don't see Ludvig leaving... Captain and adopted Geordie... And he's been good so far this year Well... I wonder why Adam Ellis rode for Swindon today and Robert didn't ride for us? They're both in the same FIM meeting... Also, as I've said in the past... he's said that Germany is more of a priority than uk, and even though the rules stop that happening... Will he give 110% in his head... I mean, that race last weekend when he came last at Brough... He seemed to give up and wheelie the last two laps rather than chase hard... I would prefer Brady over Matej, but I think Matej would be more likely to come to Newcastle than Brady... What happened to Kevin Wolbert? I would agree Robert Lambert is one of the best u-21 riders in the world... I don't want him to go... But someone has to... Or we keep getting 1 at reserve every week... Liam has done bad from the number 2 and 4 position, but if we put him in at 7, he'd be one of the strongest 7s in the league imo (Same goes for Zach W who I'd prefer to see, but he's pretty unrealistic too)... And with Hopwood at 6, that's not a terrible reserve pairing... Or another name... Rene Bach!! People are probably annoyed at all these names I'm pulling out of thin air... xD Kenneth Bjerre and Zach W... I'll stop now... 1. Steve Worrall 2. Ashley Morris 3. Lewis Rose 4. Ludvig Lindgren 5. Rene Bach/Kenneth Bjerre/Brady Kurtz/Matej Kus (In that order) 6. Ben Hopwood 7. Zach Wajtknecht After 400,000 different thoughts, that would do me...
  18. I love Ashley Morris like, great rider and always tries hard, plus he's another British rider

    One track Kus who rode very well for us last year It is part of the fun, making people angry and causing a fuss ^_^ IF Robert, Rose and Steve aren't riding for KL and BV Because then we're f**cked, same goes for the pairs...

    Newcastle 2017

    No... I want Brady Kurtz to replace the very busy kid, Robert Lambert, no one wants him to go, but something has to change andit'd give us an extra point at reserve then... Robert Lambert 8.70 Connor Coles 2.00 Out Brady Kurtz 7.65 or Matej Kus 7.64 Liam Carr 3.00 In Doesn't make our reserves mega strong but Liam is both more experienced (at this level and our track) and better than Connor (Who it's just too early for) No one, including me, wants Robert out, but something has to be sacrificed in the 1-5..... And I think Brady would be just or nearly as good and Matej would do a job at keeping our 1-5 very strong still I know I'm being controversial, and I will just leave my opinions here for people to judge It is a forum afterall I question Roberts dedication to us still...

    How long do we struggle on for? Is Hopwood a temporary signing until the new averages come out? Can we put up with Connor if we don't have a senior reserve to back him up? I like Ben and Connor, but not both in one team..... We need one of them and a more senior reserve too... Not both, last year when we had Danny, he was always partnered with Lewis Rose at reserve... 1 point we got from reserve tonight, carry on like that, I don't see us winning anything at all... I know I'm sounding like a repeating record... But 1 point is just not good enough And I hate saying that, because ANYONE who gets onto a speedway bike deserves lots of respect... I have my opinion, and other people have theirs... Just want my team to win is all Sport is not sentimental Not sure how the rules work, would Brady come in on his beginning of the season average of 7.65? Or would it be whatever his new Poole average is?
  22. Wish I could have been there tonight, everyone seems to suggest he rode well
  23. I'm sorry, but we need to do something with our reserves and dear god, please not Embleton... We're not going to win anything, even with Robert and Steve
  24. Yes, I thought Robert was riding in the Swedish league, not in a FIM meeting, I'm all clear with what's going on now... I think...
  25. I see, I was told he's riding in Sweden tomorrow, didn't even know about the FIM meeting, thanks again Although it's interesting to see that Adam Ellis is riding for Swindon tonight still...
