RAPIDFIRE 8 Posted December 15, 2015 With so many spaces left to fill in all the teams what riders are left out there to fill them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sings4Speedway 3,247 Posted December 15, 2015 (edited) Think there are plenty of riders left. Mildenhall, Kings Lynn & Coventry are complete. Of the rest: Cradley - awaiting the announcement of Basford to complete. IOW - need one more second string. Brum - 1 x HL 1 x second string Stoke - 1 x second string 1 x reserve Kent - 1 x HL 2 x second string Belle Vue - 2 x second string 2 x reserve (1 will be Holt) Eastbourne - 1 x HL, 2 x second string, 1 x reserve Buxton - 1 x HL, 1 x Second string, 2 x reserve Rye House - 7 (but all probably signed already) Total - 4 x HL, 9 x second string 5 x reserve HL - Morley, Ritchings, Owen, Knight yet to sign SS - Could be a problem? Speight, Andrews, Dugard, Baseby, Widman still available Reserves - 5 spots that could all be filled by MDL / NJL riders if required or the other handful of riders from this year who didn't improve upon 3 points. Of the spaces available it might be Buxton who struggle to attract riders? As they seem to historically the rest including the new comers have shown they can lure big name riders with big tracks to ride on.

Just because riders haven't been announced don't think they aren't already sorted. As for Buxton the reason why we cant attract the big names is solely down to money and the fact that we wont bankrupt the club ,in doing so. However, we are here some 20+ years later so it cant all be bad and rest assured we have our riders in place just working on the announcements as I'm sure the other clubs are.

greyhoundp 990 Posted December 15, 2015 (edited) And Im sure Jason Pipe will do all he can to make sure Rutherford is in the Team as a reserve to begin with albeit on a 3.5 average. . Edited December 15, 2015 by greyhoundp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
