george.m 3,063 Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) Yes I'd be pleased if Bellego had returned also. Great entertainer. Just surprised that his average isn't higher. Previously advised that this was due to inconsistency. Any idea what caused the inconsistency? Stopping half way through a race to have a wazz at the side of the track. Well, he is French. Oui, oui. Bonjour. Edited December 6, 2013 by george.m Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigeddiechek 1,094 Posted December 6, 2013 Well with The announcements of other teams in last few days it is going to be a very different line up from 2013, looking at top end riders there are not many out there, new assets may well be best way to go, Is Brenton Barnfield still riding? maybe him & Berge would be the way forward. Looking at averages Chris Harris would be allowed to ride premier if his converted 6.82 Elite league average remains, making 11.59 in the premier. Highly unlikely but if he didn't do it this year he will surely averge over 7.00 in the EL ruling outthe possibility in future. There must be a few Elite League riders who could double-up, Scott Nichols? New assets are great, as long as they are reasonably close to their assessed averages. If they don't achieve this, all the "new blood" callers will be calling for their blood. Can't win as a speedway promoter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
havenagotahope 204 Posted December 6, 2013 Sorry Ed Scotty Nicholls comes in on 12.58 so over the limit which is just as well as rides Berwick like an amateur Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dempo 124 Posted December 6, 2013 Just out of interest, anyone know how much we paid Swindon for Seb? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted December 6, 2013 (edited) Ref Nicholls He was about as much use at Berwick as I was at Cycle Speedway... Ref Bellego - He is probably the most naturally uncaptured talent the Bandits have had for a good while. At certain times last year he really was looking a cut above pre U21 Qualifier I'm sure Cieslak had praised him in the Polish press. Still has the inconsistant side in him. I query whether not having a spell at reserve may have helped David back in 2012. Hopefully in 2014 we can make Shielfield a bit more of a fortress. While picking up the usual 2 or 3 away wins.

Fromafar 10,416 Posted December 6, 2013 if berwick does not hurry up we.ll be picking the best out of the worst.come on berwick the suspence is killing meemiliali &RobinH88 were next in line but their averages don't fit,RobinH88 was unlucky as His rolling Av from cycle speedway snookered him. Just out of interest, anyone know how much we paid Swindon for Seb?Too much if we don't use him this year(if he is interested in riding in GB) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted December 6, 2013 Ian told me I wont be utilised by the Bandits, but wished me well in my Cycle Speedway career. Not sure what happened to Emilali? He was really keen to race for the club.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robinh88 571 Posted December 6, 2013 I was No5 for the Goldstone Goldrobbers back in the 2000 and 2001 season Did manage a 4 ride maximum against a 3 man East Ord team. Took the huff in Heat 15 because my team mate wouldn't give me gate one. Ever entertaining Emilali was swooping past the East Ord riders with ease, sadly he had to go home about 1930, for the Bill... My conversations with Emilali are limited these days, but since being made surplus to requirements at my home club, it's been hard to initate myself back into Society. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
