YAMYAMBANDIT 560 Posted February 26, 2014 who knows maybe a change of track will suit Barrett,if he is the rider lined up to replace Joey ike a lot of Berwick fans expected a lot from him in 2013 sadly it did not happen but 2014 is a new season maybe it just takes a different enviroment, Strangely, I would have stuck with Barrett, he didn't come back from the accident well. I believe he would have got his head around it, and we would have seen what we saw at the beginning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yoda 81 Posted February 26, 2014 I think Barrett has the potential, you could do a lot worse than him. maybe the cost is a factor, as i persume he would be flying in and out of denmark. but maybe worth a gamble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Islander15 1,065 Posted February 26, 2014 You should have just kept Jacobs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joseq7 363 Posted February 26, 2014 You should have just kept Jacobs. To be accurate Jacobs wasn't ours to keep but I take your point. To be fair he performed OK over the season, raising his average by >0.50 points which is not too shabby for his first year in the 2nd top flight. On balance I wouldn't have had him back if it had been a straight choice between him and Ringwood, based entirely on what I thought they could do this year, IMO.

yoda 81 Posted February 26, 2014 thought Glasgow announced at one point during the season that they were going to buy Joe Jacobs contract from Ipswich ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BRITISHSPEEDPOWER 58 Posted February 26, 2014 I like Barrett. He's got a nice controlled style, looks good on a bike and rides very well around Ashfield. Reckon that crash on bend 3 at Berwick done him no favours. Gotta remember that crashing a motorbike at 60plus mph takes it out of you! With a fresh start and some luck he would be a good bet. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weeyin 1,022 Posted February 26, 2014 I would like to give Barrett a chance ... but it is not him that is lined up to replace Joey if visa falls through Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
