John Scrutton 180 Posted January 11, 2021 I don't think there will be any Speedway in G/B this year but if there is there will be several teams wanting riders as several more like Lambert will be optioning to ride only in Europe for several reasons And all the Swindon riders will soon find other teams. Jason Doyle lives/lived in Norwich and is Married / Partner to a nurse from the the N/N Hospital he would be a good target to fill Roberts shoes But we have a long way to. Teams could be all in one League.....Average points cut money`points money cut WHO KNOWS // on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there is a PL this year i can't see Doyle being the Stars No1.While it makes sense that he probably wants a team spot,Lynn would need a No1 and he only lives up the road.Would Buster drop other rider(s)to accommodate his average.He has over a pt more average than Lambert. First of all though,lets just hope we do get to see some speedway this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Given the ever changing position re 'air bridges' , I am amazed any business would recruit 'key employees' who may not be able to get to their place of work.... At any given moment, as we have seen, any country can prevent visitors coming in from any other countries, so to utilise riders who could very easily be 'stranded' overseas at literally a few hours notice seems ridiculous.. The riders who ride in Poland in particular will be instructed clearly not to leave the country should quarantining be enforced upon their return, and also if their own country (or next meeting destination country) is running at a high risk so likely to have the air bridge removed, they will be told they must not travel I would suggest.. And given that this will be their main contract financially I have no doubts all will obey.. Edited January 13, 2021 by mikebv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
