ivanhoward 18 Posted December 21, 2014 It has gone very quiet regarding the final rider for the Stars. Does anyone have any information? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Speedball 566 Posted December 21, 2014 I'm led to believe that Ashley Morris is still the preferred option but they need to wait until January to find out if he's fit enough to resume racing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I heard the same we just need to find out if Ash will be fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
em1500uk 190 Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) I wouldn't have thought that Ashley Morris will be fit by January. Wolverhampton can say yeah he'll be OK by then, but I'm doubtful of that. Someone had suggested Oliver Greenwood to me, but I couldn't see his name in the tier 2 group. I know Darryl Ritchings' name was in that group and I wouldn't mind giving him a go, but of course, the lower down the list we go, the less choice of guests we have...least I believe that to be the case. It's a difficult one! Edited December 21, 2014 by em1500uk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

speedy17 226 Posted December 21, 2014 Still has to be Clegg or Greaves. Ritchings has done remarkably well to get back from his injury to even get on a bike again, he needs races under his belt before he's anywhere near ready for a FTD spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

INCOGNITO 357 Posted December 21, 2014 Quite interesting that Kings Lynn have their own stadium to help practice or be used by others to get in some laps for the younger riders but what has been done to get this done ? Tai Woffinden has asked for the venue to be made available to help the Team GB get in some practice and involve the younger riders like Newman and Garrity but was turned down. So is there anyone using the venue for some pre meeting practice ? YES Leszno have it booked for three days and in return are going to let Kings Lynn have a meeting against them at Saddlebow Road with Pedersrn Sayfutinov Pawlicki brothers and THJ plus Wolverhampton new signing Tobiasz Musielak. Good business for both teams and it's a shame that it couldn't be a challenge match against Team GB instead with Woffinden Harris Stead Cook Newman Garrity and a few others benefiting from some early race time.

Bagpuss 10,838 Posted December 22, 2014 I think Morris is a fairly limited rider who won't get much better than his current level, however if he can prove his fitness I'd go with him as he is higher up the list than anyone else if we need a guest and has the most experience for just one season.

Since when do the BSPA put the sport first. Individually or collectively, they always look after their own first............. The sport is secondary......

pointsmeanplayoffs 417 Posted December 22, 2014 Are Leszno really racing against Stars pre-season? That would be superb. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattJ81 51 Posted December 22, 2014 Clegg & Greaves have already committed to Wednesdays by signing for Cradley have they not? I believe Clegg has also stated that three leagues would be too much of a strain on his current set up (i.e. his Dad) with travelling and time off work etc. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
