T.N.T. 355 Posted November 2, 2013 So Bees have Harris and Hansen signed up for 2014 but Barker returning could be on the line unless he stays at Ipswich if they move up with Scott Nicholls and Leigh Lanham. Martin Smolinski could return to the club if they don't want to deal with Birmingham although Brummies seem pretty keen to keep the GP Star !! on board along with Josh Auty. Kenni Larsen could be in contention to return for the Bees as #1 while Aaron Summers may have to decide if he wants to ride in the EL or PL as riders doubling up positions may have restrictions on ability (average) and/or age. 1 - Kenni Larsen 2 - Aaron Summers 3 - Grzegorz Zengota 4 - Kenneth Hansen 5 - Chris Harris 6 - ? 7 - ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rider Replacement 68 Posted November 2, 2013 As much as I like Kenni and feel he would be a good choice for Coventry, he isn't a number 1, and also I'm sure he wanted away from Coventry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted November 2, 2013 Not sure we will see Summers for the Bees next year I would prefer Roynon, similar average and if he managed an injury free season he could be a 5.5-6 point rider Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bees_Man 454 Posted November 2, 2013 Roynon is not a 5/6 point rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted November 2, 2013 Roynon is not a 5/6 point rider.He managed that in 2012. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T.N.T. 355 Posted November 2, 2013 Roynon is not a 5/6 point rider. He would be if he stays innjury free and doesn't have to face the likes of Lindgren, Bjerre, Iversen etc Would think Adam may well be doubling up again though and wouldn't be suprised if Dudley moved up and included him as one of their heat leaders.

john birch 85 Posted November 2, 2013 He managed that in 2012.I seem to remember he had two serious injuries followed by a further two in 2013, making a total of six serious injuries including two life threatening ones if my memory serves me correct. Cannot believe Horton would seriously consider re-signing Roynon unless league looks more like the Premier League is now. Sorry but it's time to move on. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacques 3,114 Posted November 2, 2013 I seem to remember he had two serious injuries followed by a further two in 2013, making a total of six serious injuries including two life threatening ones if my memory serves me correct. Cannot believe Horton would seriously consider re-signing Roynon unless league looks more like the Premier League is now. Sorry but it's time to move on. I can't even count them to be honest. He's a great lad is Adam and undoubtedly talented, but as much as it hurts me to say it. I agree with you. It's got to the stage, that every time he takes to the track, I have my heart in my mouth. I watch updates waiting to see if he's got through a heat unscathed!! That's not how it should be.... There is no room for sentiment though when you are trying to build a competitive team. Obviously we don't know the points limit yet for 2014, but with a heavy heart, Adam wouldn't be a Bee next season, in either of the chosen teams. If not for his own health!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's not how it should be.... It's worse still being there and I can't say I enjoy watching any of the heats that Adam is in as I'm just hoping he finishes the race without mishap. Some riders just seem so accident prone and unfortunately Adam is one of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BADGER69 33 Posted November 3, 2013 As you obviously have me as a HATER....!!!! Already said on here, Harris = No brainer and great entertainment, Hansen= = I have no problem with so your mistaken Im not scoffing I gave Horton credit for both signings and asked for some new faces. I've also already said on here I DO NOT get involved with what I believe to be speculation as to who the others would be or who I would like because thats irrelevant as I do not know the points limit, what Hortons budget is, who is available,and who is prepared to ride for someone like Horton given his previous track record. So i'll leave it to you and whoever else to fill these pages with the pie in the sky predictions and wishes. I have better things to do than that and as and when riders are announced I will if I feel inclined pass on what I think, not that I think many people will be too bothered what I think. It seems to me that any one who does not tow the party line should be taken out and shot. How sad it is that if you say something that is not in the manifesto you are vilified 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moler 1 Posted November 3, 2013 they said that last season and season before Bomber out of Gp now he will kick on never did? A least with Scott you get 100% Shame he didn't give 100% when he rode for Swindon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you ever considered it might be quite good fun speculating and creating one's own teams, rather than what you term as 'pie in the sky predictions'.....take a chill pill...

Woz01 3,589 Posted November 4, 2013 I said id prefer Roynon over Summers but to be honest we should look at the likes of Bellego for next year. If Roynon can have an injury free season next year and do well then he will be a potential signing for 2015. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
