Lord Antebellum 87 Posted November 7, 2013 Howe would be a good move, no doubt in my mind Always a bit of a gating tart, I thought. Used to see him at Peterborough and Wolverhampton. Not sure why Berwick would prefer him to Olly Allen, if they find a need for an over-30 loanee to head their squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted November 7, 2013 Er gating is rather essential at Berwick and Speedway in general I'd say allen is more of a risk from than Howe going on there respective cmas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
proud panther 1,505 Posted November 7, 2013 Really good news that Ricky is making progress. Was at the meeting where he was injured, & it still gives me a cold shiver down my spine when I think about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
screm 8,057 Posted November 7, 2013 Would he not miss a lot of meetings due to Longtrack ? If Howes Longtrack activities in 2014 are anything like 2013 then that has to rule him out of any chance of a Berwick contract. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YAMYAMBANDIT 560 Posted November 7, 2013 (edited) I think you should both read the interview again. Ian Rae did not say that Liam wasn't ready for PL, what he said was that with Liam still being at school, he wasn't sure if he was ready for full time PL''But Bandits team manager Ian Rae, while he is undecided on his plans for next year, says he is still not certain the youngster is ready to step up full time to Premier League racing. Liam has done extremely well on his late season outings with Edinburgh, said Rae. It has gained him some valuable experience, which is what it is all about at this stage of his career. But Liam is still at school, and whilst we will give him every concideration when it comes to our team building for 2014, I am not sure he is ready for a full time move to Premier League just yet.'' This is a direct quote from his interview, make your own minds up. Edited November 7, 2013 by TOURETTES Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
havenagotahope 204 Posted November 9, 2013 How about, Riki Wells, Jakub Jamrog, Nikolaj Jakobsen, David Bellago, Anders Thomsen, Liam Car and take you pick from Kozza, Claus Vissing or if we were feeling naughty Anton Rosen or any newbee we fancy with 7.22 left. Strong top end with a bit of flare but also some experience a bit light at the bottom though but think Anders would up his avg by a couple of points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diamond_ren 209 Posted November 9, 2013 What about, 1) Doolan 7.51 2) Bellego 6.36 3) Smith 7.15 4) Aspgren 6.74 5) Alden 7.37 6) Carr 3.00 7) Compton 4.36 Total 42.49 Pretty strong side and guaranteed a strong reserve all season with little pressure on carr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
one arm bandit 31 Posted November 10, 2013 1 - Ben Barker 2 - Steve Boxall 3 - Matty Wethers 4 - Kozza Smith 5 - David Bellego 6 - Anders Thomsen 7 - Liam Carr / Paul Starke Not sure what Steve Boxall's average would be and depending on whether Liam will make the step up or not. To be honest after seeing Liam at Armadale it may be a better starting point for him on a small track but we'll wait and see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robinh88 571 Posted November 10, 2013 Very good side I'd say. Suprised Aspegren's average is that high to be honest with you. He's signed for Rye House... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MD 1,307 Posted November 10, 2013 If there is to be no Glasgow next season as sad as that would be, then how about Anders Thomsen to partner Carr at reserve on 4.11 he's a good shout had a hard start to his premier career in a Glasgow team that was struggling and riding mostly in the main body of the team. Thomsen was his own worst enemy, often riding an engine that wouldn't last 2 laps then scoring big points back in Denmark a day later. When he was on song he was excellent just it wasn't often enough. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
