SCB 13 Posted February 16, 2015 I think that is highly likely. Re: Eddie Kennett - an EL asset when given a team place = it does not seem right that Rye should now have priority on his services. The Lakeside deal was done prior to the Rockets/Bees swap. Didnt hear anyone from Lakeside say how u fair it was last year when you bought Lawson and Redcar list out. rubbish happens.

E I Addio 15,851 Posted February 26, 2015 Two very surprising names have just been added to the Rico Spring Classic on March 20th. The first is Kelvin Tatum back on a bike one-night-only basis, the second is even more surprising --- Ritchie Worrall. After all the water that has flown under the bridge between Lakeside and Worrall I really din't expect to see him in any sort of guest appearance but on the face of it , it seems they have kissed and made up. After seeing the one-time persona non grata Ed Kennett being welcomed into the Lakeside team will we one day see RW take the same route ? Will we see him guesting when Rich Lawson or Ed are unavailable ? Who knows. It's certainly a funny old sport at times. Fans favourite Ben Moreley will be in the line up for Lee''s All Stars . Ben must be another one in the frame for FTDR guest appearances. Quite an interesting line up unfolding despite Coventry v Leicester being on the same night. All we need now is a few demonstration laps by Briggo on a a two valve Jawa . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was Vicountess Althorpe, mother of Lady Spencer (Princess Diana) who, I believe, once said: "Only common people hold grudges." Apart from that, it is very tricky to fly under a bridge unless you are an extremely skillful pilot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
