Flying at the moment. Is he available for us? Would Martin Phillips drop his son for him? He needs to do something soon. He's given him far too much time already! Guested for Edinburgh on Saturday. Fell off in his first two rides. Then 2 coconuts in his next 2 rides. Not on the pace at all. Jordan Palin born 19 Feb 2004, so not 16 until next year.

They might not score a load of points at the minute but could still weigh in with 3 or 4 and that can make a difference. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly agree about Connor, he's experienced at our track too Richard Andrews intrigues me too... Just jumped up into the 8 points average wise in the NL, seems like a good team leader, experienced... Only problem seems to be geography!! What about Danny Halsey? Anyone? lol Edited June 25, 2019 by Dandelion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder what Mark Blackwell and Sam Dore are doing now. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe Glasgow will snap Coles up as Jack Thomas is taking a break from Speedway. Glasgow used Coles the other week and by all accounts were impressed with him.

They will not sign anyone I'm afraid. Although they cannot allow the season to fizzle out. But if they don't for me get at least Lasse Bjerre out it will. Just look what's happened at SJP!!
