Who Is The Best Pl Number One Ever?

Recommended Posts

Sean Wilson - consistent 10 point+ average rider, one of the main reasons for Sheffield's success as a captain and rider between 1999 and 2002 and a 3 times PLRC winner.

Couldn't stand him at the time but it's hard to see past Carl Stonehewer.

Here a few of my personal favourites of recent times (last 10 years ish) all dominant during some point in their PL career. No doubt have missed some obvious candidates.

 

Carl Stonehewer

Peter Carr

Shane Parker

Chris Holder

Sean Wilson

Craig Cook

Nicki Pedersen

Bjarne Pedersen

 

Hard to pin down one as the greatest but perhaps Stoney just edges it as a true PL great.

Joe Owen.

He seemed to average 11 season upon season. Plus he was very exciting to watch.

 

If u stretch this back to the old national League, then joe owen at Newcastle must be up there.

Could not agree more, have not seen a better rider since Joe Owen. Nicki Pedersen, Bjarne, Craig Watson and Carl Stonehewer to name a few have entertained, but I don't think any of them come close. Just my opinion. :D

 

Matej Zagar - really, how can you include him, he was frightened to travel north of the Watford Gap!!!!
