mikebv 10,282 Posted March 7, 2022 Just now, Speedtiger said: Yeh ok BUT only 3 weeks to go until first meeting and we’ve not a got a full team yet! that very poor and surely can NOT be part of the plan.

In my opinion last year's final was as much to do with Lyon who is a top team manager. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Triple.H. 1,986 Posted March 7, 2022 Maybe with the current situation in Ukraine, which let's be honest seems to be getting worst each day. Poland could be in a position, though hopefully not, where non Polish riders would make themselves available for team changes in GB. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark as to take some of the blame, other factors also are Missing Brady was much more crucial for us and they took advantage of ulrichs rich vein of form early in season. Nevertheless Borough won. And deserved the trophy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wtf 621 Posted March 8, 2022 To be Fair to Mark Lemon, I think Bewley was plan B or C. Plan A was Batchelor, but Mark didn't factor in that Batch might get a better offer elsewhere. As soon as Batchelor went to Ipswich then Belle Vue were always back peddling a bit with many other riders sorted by then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As soon as Batchelor went to Ipswich then Belle Vue were always back peddling a bit with many other riders sorted by then Aye, if you belive it, batch had agreed to ride for us then went ipswich for the money before he signed his Contract, (nothing wrong with that) Then plan B was tai woffinden and trying to persuade him to do a whole season and not just home meetings. Then plan C was Dan Bewley and kye thomson, and that very nearly came off. Now we're on plan D, wither lebedevs and tungate or lebedevs and Jye. Whatever people think of mark he's tried his dam hardest to put out a competitive team and not just any old team to fill the numbers. He's not give up and kudos to him for that. And eventually he's gave us a good team which will be revealed soon 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 203 Posted March 8, 2022 If Lebedevs is a defo then I'd rather have Etheridge over Tungate. Just think he'd be more committed to the cause. Cheaper as well with no flights to cost in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gasser90 229 Posted March 8, 2022 So is it likely all will be revealed this week or will there be a bit of a surprise and just see who turns up for press and practice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
