gazzac 1,015 Posted May 17, 2017 My thoughts: Knight and Dugard to IOW; Greaves and Mullins out of IOW why he can't announce as he's waiting for Govier avg to drop to 3 Coles to kings lynn with Shane hazelden Perks to Eastbourne with an older rider coming in on a 3.5 avg Greaves to Buxton to replace perks? Doesn't Perks still ride for Rye on a Saturday night? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ben91 1,743 Posted May 17, 2017 Jake Knight on FB: "2017 covers all designed. at the moment I can not say which team I have signed for But I am looking for sponsors to be part of the team for this year. If you or your company, also a company you may know would like to help out and be part of the team this year get in touch no matter how big or smaller contribution you would like to make all would be very much appreciated. Thank you. Please share would be all a massive help thank you." He's had more comebacks than Rocky. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Govier's injured so his average won't drop as he's not getting the meetings in to get a new average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also Connor sort of intimated last week he was going with the current team, so although I'd love to see him back, deep down think he's off somewhere else.

Mind you, I say that more because I would love to see Jake 'in' the team. Not because I particularly want to see anyone 'out' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not because I particularly want to see anyone 'out' I agree and to honest it's a bit of a distraction, and if we do go with the team I'm sure the fans will properly get behind Coles and Dugard as they're the 2 struggling at the moment.

Sings4Speedway 3,247 Posted May 17, 2017 Personally id like to see Knight at Kings Lynn & Greaves join him once he is officially released by IOW as they desperately need strengthening. Id obviously like to see IOW recruit a suitable replacement also & likewise Buxton with the Perks situation. Im sure both the Warriors & Buxton would love to be in the situation of having 7 riders & just worrying about a slight loss of form of a couple of them.

gazzac 1,015 Posted May 17, 2017 (edited) I think the situation really only arose with Jake keep practising at Arlington. If hadn't been doing that, don't think the discussion of him maybe coming back would have come into the equation. Edited May 17, 2017 by gazzac Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChaosTheory22 13 Posted May 17, 2017 Knight to Eastbourne. Coles to IOW. Dugard to Kent or Lakeside Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TurnTwo 317 Posted May 17, 2017 I'd like to see perks at Eastbourne ! And does dugard to Kent actually make them stronger? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunters 210 Posted May 17, 2017 I'd like to see perks at Eastbourne ! And does dugard to Kent actually make them stronger? Perks already missing too often, cannot be good value while in 3 leagues. There is nothing better than Knight for Eastbourne but unfortunately it won't happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex2000 266 Posted May 17, 2017 I'd like to see perks at Eastbourne ! And does dugard to Kent actually make them stronger? That won't work as perks is rising for Rye on Saturday's!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProudtobeaBrummie 646 Posted May 17, 2017 I think Jake signs for Kings Lynn and i wouldn't surprise me if he replace Young josh as number 7 for the first team. This by the way is a complete guess and speculation but i would of thought it would need to be a tempting offer to entice him out. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This by the way is a complete guess and speculation but i would of thought it would need to be a tempting offer to entice him out. If this was so why has it not been announced. It seems certain that Jake has signed somewhere and I thought the favourites were K Lynn and IOW (although someone did tell me on P&P day that he fell out with KL and would never ride for them again??) Both of these teams can slot him straight in with no other change necessary so why not say so? The only other eligible team in my view would be Buxton replacing Perks with another slight adjustment. Any other team would have to make a pretty major re declaration. All of which would indicate that he is going Championship. The sooner they say so the better.
