Nah i think Hawkins has a hospital appointment to remove that chip off his shoulder, either that or to get a personality transplant:D

Probs never was an option,,,, probs not even asked, even though it was obvious weeks ago Riss needs to shown the exit door 

 

I would love to know how many riders have or more likely haven't been  contacted 

Would have been hobsons choice for you anyway given your opinion of Batch

Riss can ride the small tracks as several successful years riding for Edinburgh and Redcar have shown. He was also almost unbeatable around Newcastle. It's not the track that's the problem it's his illness and the fact he hasn't got back to where he was. His Redcar scores have been way down on what would normally be expected from him.

Not forgetting a match winners score at Wolves last season too.

He simply isn’t fit / recovered whatever it is that’s wrong!

Interesting. Louis has done the after meeting thoughts for the last meeting, as well as the preview for Mondays meeting on the official site instead of Hawkins.

But atleast he scores points at Foxhall,, which would give the home crowd a bit more to shout about

He's probably read all the social media about himself and has decided to take a step back for the moment

Perhaps it's just that little bit too close to Edinburgh for Ritchie .....;):P

Been an appalling season for Witches that will have cost the club a fortune. No sense of ‘team’. A speedway shambles in Suffolk. Needs a shake-up for next year.

Nothing wrong with the original plan

Then Rew cracked his back - I've no doubt this has had some impact on his subdued progress to date

Thomas got injured before a wheel was turned

Riss hasn't been right from the off

Those 3 situations have imo cost 5-6 points a match

The biggest issue has been how the unfortunate developments have been handled. Principles and loyalty are positive virtues but don't always make the best job of plugging vital gaps in a team to keep it winning

You have a point. Edinburgh is famous for its comedy festival. Too many people laughing and smiling, not really Hawkins thing is it. Seen happier looking people than him on Smiths album covers.
