Theboss 727 Posted February 6, 2016 Wow, cheap team if these rumours are true! Disappointed no rabbit (or specifically a Russian) has been pulled out of the hat but at least one positive.... No Bjerre plus the majority of the team are racers. I predict most of the home meetings to go down to the wire and therefore the crowds will hold up as fans will love the tension.

Haza 1,774 Posted February 6, 2016 If the club are considering Barker as final rider I never thought I'd say this but get Kenny Bear signed up ASAP 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve0 5,517 Posted February 6, 2016 If true, Batch doesn't even have a 7 point average - so not the strongest #1 in the league! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd sooner have Kenneth in the side than Barker - poor side if Barker is the last rider poor crowds poor results just hope there is no moaning from the promotion when crowds fall away .

Bagpuss 10,814 Posted February 6, 2016 If the club are considering Barker as final rider I never thought I'd say this but get Kenny Bear signed up ASAP Not for me, at least Barker gets stuck in. Neither are going to tempt me to part with my hard earned very often though. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pubichair 164 Posted February 6, 2016 personally think we won't be that bad as lambert will be a number one by end of season and Schlein and batch are good 2nd and 3rd heat leaders Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haza 1,774 Posted February 6, 2016 personally think we won't be that bad as lambert will be a number one by end of season and Schlein and batch are good 2nd and 3rd heat leaders with that team we must be 5 points under the points limit I'd have thought Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clive Ward 181 Posted February 6, 2016 Agree but I think it's pretty clear we aren't going to get one of those.I think Kenny b might be our best bet but does he even want to ride for us 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kelvinht 355 Posted February 6, 2016 Sorry to lose Rambo, but understand the need for the change, and Wilko will do us good. Was impressed when he stepped in last season, should have scored more than he did, but overrode once in a good position. A good run in the team and that could be an astute switch.

tellboy 3,670 Posted February 6, 2016 personally think we won't be that bad as lambert will be a number one by end of season and Schlein and batch are good 2nd and 3rd heat leaders Whether Lambert ends up as number 1 or not we should still try to get the best number 1 possible at this moment.You should start with your strongest side possible.It could be the difference of being competitive or not.Even though I think Barker does give every effort I would prefer a proper number 1. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Lady 5,400 Posted February 6, 2016 If it is Barker it will be a team of racers not riders And most of them thrive on interaction with the fans. In some ways it could be a godsend Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Haza 1,774 Posted February 6, 2016 If it is Barker it will be a team of racers not riders And most of them thrive on interaction with the fans. In some ways it could be a godsend this team is in desperate need of a no1 I agree Barker is a racer but we need a rider to go out and win the big heats Robert Lambert may well do that - to go into the season way under the points limit is a joke as this close season has been for the club . If we go with Barker we will be cannon fodder I'm sorry to say we have no idea how well Rory will do either I've yet to hear he's had a practice session again the pressure will be on Rory . As I say we need a no1 and it just might be time to push the boat out a bit and splash the cash . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
