dantodan 314 Posted October 30, 2013 A pretty good season, our lads did very well and it would be great if most of them were wanting to come back in 2014. We will have a problem as our riders Steve Worrall and Christian Henry/ Stuart Robson were replaced mid/late season. Richie Worrall Became our number 1. I think he could be encouraged to move up to the Elite League but really, good as he is he still has a few things to learn and I hope he opts for another season with us Andrew Tully A good rider but can he improve on his 7 point average, I don't think so. I would let him go Ludvig Lindgren Not the most consistent of riders but when he is in the mood he is fantastic to watch bring him back for 2014 so he can entertain me again next season. Anton Rosen He settled right in, hit the ground running. If we can fit him in for a full season the "Rocket" has to be brought back Stuart Robson Robbo if fit in 2014 should be brought back, he would benefit the team if he was riding in any position but not at number 1 or 5. Lewis Kerr The Kerminator has had an unbelievable year at number 7. If he wants to leave us so be it, but really we need to break the bank to keep him here. I want to watch him like Richie moving from reserve to our number 1 rider. All Lewis has to do is learn more overtaking skills like blasting around the outside Chris Schramm I was a bit surprised when we signed him but almost immediately I became a fan. Schrammbo is great to watch and if his average fills a gap that asset Steve Worrall cannot fill then come back Chris and do a few tricks, donuts etc. Christian Henry An excellent rider. Our Aussie never put a foot wrong prior to his injury. If he wants to continue in 2014 then our promoters have a problem if all the lads want to come back. Steve Worrall I think Steve has the potential to follow brother Richie and be an excellent rider. Maybe he can do this at Brough. But our track may not be the best home base for Steve. I hope he does well wherever he rides in 2014 Hey any chance of us prising the cookie monster away fro Edinburgh? He is the only PL rider I would like to see ride for us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DIAMONDS 159 Posted October 30, 2013 now that's a decent team, unlikely and expensive but decent never the less. Fine then how about 1. Richie Worrall 8.64 2. Lewis Kerr 6.09 3. Stuart Robson 7.20 4. Ulrich Ostergaard 6.52 5. Rene Bach 7.85 6. Steve Worrall 3.00 7. Robert Lambert 3.00 More realistic? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tsunami 10,219 Posted October 30, 2013 Any news on repairs to the terracing? I heard last Sunday that the repairs could be starting in January, 2014. About time too, the loss of the steps in the stands doesn't effect the dogs of course, as folks who go are behind the glass. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The White Knight 9,039 Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) I heard last Sunday that the repairs could be starting in January, 2014. About time too, the loss of the steps in the stands doesn't effect the dogs of course, as folks who go are behind the glass. Spot on Dave. I still think it is a disgrace that the work was left for so long. Nothing to do with the Speedway I know - but really, a WHOLE Season with NO work done whatsoever - terrible. I don't suppose we (the Speedway) got a Rent Rebate for inconvenience? Edited October 30, 2013 by The White Knight 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The biggest regret is the the councils H &S officers did not have the gumption to put a prohibition notice on just the middle section, and then issue 6 month notices on the others one at a time. There is very little wrong , and nothing unsafe, about the outside flanks steps. They are merely cracked, and in the fullness in time, would have opened up and then been dangerous. Once again an over reaction by the not so savvy H & S officers. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Once again an over reaction by the not so savvy H & S officers. The annoying thing is the hypocrisy when you see the state of footpaths and potholes in roads that the Council are responsible for, and the they close down terracing that is in a better state than their roads and pavements. Reading other threads it seems that air fences may interfere with sight lines so it is crucial that the terracing is started for the new season with the air fences in place. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
