Yes, Vissing is a very good rider, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't want him on a 8 and a half... Plus I don't like him (Just my opinion) Seems very hot headed and erratic, inconsistent and not really a number 1... Just my opinion though Oh, and he doesn't go round Brough very well either Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacob Bukhave 4.00 DEN I'm guessing a former Potter, with the points left and who hasn't got another team, is Tom Perry? Or Ben Wilson if he still rides? Is that 4.26 or 5.26 left?

DC2 11,150 Posted December 1, 2019 Can’t believe someone would go to the bother of taking over Newcastle and then sign such an uninspiring team. That would just be money down the drain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That would just be money down the drain. Hopefully th last rider is either a gem on a joke average, or it's not really the team and Kenneth Bjerre is announced on Tuesday ^_^ That's why he's dropping Belle Vue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonnybegood 258 Posted December 1, 2019 Adam Roynon is always been overlooked , great gater and racer . Low average as he was injured last season . He would do a great job . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Says he's happy just to finish the meeting in one piece when he's there... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's 8.5 without having ridden in heat 13 or 15 much last season (it matters). Riding at 1 he'll struggle to average 7 IMO. But no point in complaining about the team. It is what it is and money aside and starting after everyone else aside we're just not an attractive proposition to the majority of riders. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good shout, would like to see Gino in Britain... How about Aaron Fox? He made a good name for himself guesting for us ^_^ Just now, enotian said: Agree.

It is what it is and money aside and starting after everyone else aside we're just not an attractive proposition to the majority of riders. I think he's a 7.5 rider at best tbh... Might kick on next season, who knows? We can still have a solid team without a big name... We just need 6.5/7 pointers all through the 1-5 and two strong reserves (Max and Jacob?)
