Catch Me If You Can 260 Posted October 23, 2013 Whilst I dont think Olly Allen is an out and out no 1 these days I think in a strong top 5 he would be a good signing and is obviously a good team guy with experience so would be good for younger guys like Carr.You spot on Emilali. A decent bloke too and always popular at Coventry. Would be a good second heat leader for Berwick if not a number 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted October 23, 2013 (edited) Intrestingly Kenneth Hansen who stuggled here did well at Leicester and Coventry. While Jamrog struggled at Coventry... I reckon 8.5 would be achieveable, injuries hindered him this year. He was going pretty good (score-wise) before the injury. Be curious to see what the final PL teams look like come March 2014 (and what teams are racing at PL level). I don't think the quality will drop too much, admittedly I wouldn't think Cook and Doyle will be PL next year. Edited October 23, 2013 by RobinH88 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dempo 124 Posted October 23, 2013 Why? Rule changes? Surely they will ride in both next season, can't see them choosing to miss out on the money for the big scores that they will keep getting in th pl next year? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

screm 8,069 Posted October 24, 2013 Olly Allen would be an excellent choice for Berwick , he's already stated that he loves the place and he can score well away from home , weather he can stay fit all year would be my only worry You cant not sign a rider for the fear he may get injured, though its true to say that Allen does seem to pick up more than his fair share of bad luck, anyway I cant see Allen being a Bandit in 2014.

freddyfivetoes 157 Posted October 24, 2013 Oliver Allen would be a superb Bandit - and a Number One for Shielfield Park - and he apparently made it clear in September how much he likes the track, and people. The only trouble is one of distance from his home, which might well mean that other, less-prudent promotions with deeper pockets could lure him elsewhere. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robinh88 571 Posted October 24, 2013 I would imagine Oliver Allen will have interest from a good few PL teams. 8.09 is a figure I have no doubt he WILL improve on. Good signing on that average meaning there will be points to play with elsewhere in the team. A No1 as Emilali says he probably isn't (at this time of writing). could you explain the what you mean by other "less prudent promotions " in this case.Erm Poole?

screm 8,069 Posted November 1, 2013 Now that we know that Oliver Allen will not be returning to Rye House,you wonder if Shielfield might be his next stop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
