Don't be taken in by the haters, Roy is a master of his art and I would imagine he is the first person recruited every year. There have been meetings when he's been absent and the atmosphere was subdued. Honestly some people have no sense of fun. If you are following this thread Roy keep up the good work, it's such a shame that some people lead such miserable lives that they feel impelled to have a dig at someone who lives life to the full, you are part of the show and the attendances at Redcar speak volumes 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whether he's there are not, people will attend if the track action is continually good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kemp & Kinsley would probably strengthen us, it would be very harsh on Joe but he never seems to thrive at the EWR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

To much to soon could be the ruination of him remember he's British and would be slagged from pillar to post if he don't score well ,won't get the slack Aussie youngsters get who struggle at that level 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then the following season when he's a 4.00 rider, he stays at reserve longer as he's carrying his low scores from the previous year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thats no good at all getting smashed every week helps nobody the rider the team or the supporters all become disappointed. Sport is littered with decent young kids who have smoke blown up there arses and told there better than they are only for them to grasp the harsh realities of it and get chucked on the scrap heap for the next wonder kid. We have a long term plan and will stick to it this year like last opportunity will come and some we will take and others we won't . 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ScunnyDan 335 Posted April 9, 2023 just a thought, Zaine's brother Declan usually goes well in Aus, i'd say of a similar ability to Zaine as a possible replacement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I did think that but not really sure of his situation in Aus for example might have a decent job he doesn’t wanna quit I don’t know I’m just guessing and putting it out there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
