szkocjasid 3,043 Posted November 8, 2021 If 2021 team building rules are in place? Plymouth Richard Lawson 8.51 Michael P Toft 7.33 Edward Kennett 7.19 Ben Barker 6.87 Alfie Bowtell 4.90 Zane Keleher 4.15 Henry Atkins 2* Total 38.95 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CitizenTyler 20 Posted November 8, 2021 Honestly not sure about Kennett! The rest look good so far though. The names being thrown about for 2/4 don’t inspire confidence in a team that will do well away from home but excited all the same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FromBendThree 145 Posted November 8, 2021 Kennett looks to me to be a huge risk, based on his results for Eastbourne this year. Testimonial? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BartoszZmarzlikFan 491 Posted November 8, 2021 I disagree with the majority here regarding Kennett and here's why. He was rusty at the start of last season due to the 2020 season being cancelled like quite a few riders who didn't ride in Poland in 2020. He also wasn't being paid for riding in 2021 so I doubt he was that committed knowing full well what the Jordan's were up to. Eddie also rides Plymouth exceptionally well and home wins are key in this Sport. Not many teams will get anything at Plymouth next season if they get Barker in as well. 2 track specialists with the vastly improving duo of Lawson and MPT is a sneakily good top 4 that will go under the radar imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not a fan per se but you can't deny he's box office at Plymouth. Don't rate Keleher and thought he was actually quite poor other than a couple of home meetings. Sooner see Ruml back or look at another younger Brit. I'm guessing Cook will end up at Poole with his brother. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted November 9, 2021 Why would Plymouth sign Palm Toft? He is not a gater and if you miss the gate at Plymouth you are more or less stuffed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To give them maybe more of a balance on away tracks? Tracks like Lakeside, Rye House and Eastbourne often seemed to overkill the home small track specialists to the detriment of their away results.. One thing for sure with MPT is that you will get 100%, so any gap, however tiny, will have his bike aimed at it, which will be fun to watch on a tight circuit.. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
