Marky_Mark 55 Posted March 6 2 hours ago, torpointfanatic22 said: So back to the topic at hand, with Plymouth set to host their first meeting at home to Poole in 3 and a half weeks. Will we have a new number one announced (temporary or permanent) and will the new look track be ready to go to give the Plymouth lads a chance to actually ride it before Poole do!? I see on the Plymouth forum someone suggesting the track won't be ready until May, not sure if that's true or speculation but maybe that would allow Covatti to be fit in time to prevent Plymouth needing a replacement? All very quiet at the moment, which isn't necessarily a good thing! Agreed, seems way too quiet but hopefully everything is in hand. Really hoping they have a better season. We’ve lost too many tracks in the South recently 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marky_Mark 55 Posted March 6 (edited) I’ve seen him racing quite regularly on the Isle of Wight and yes he’s back to full fitness. Tbh all the chat on here has proven that there is hardly anyone available on the right average so I’d give him a chance and then swap Covatti back in if it doesn’t work out Edited March 6 by Marky_Mark 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,035 Posted March 7 I wonder if Plymouth are going to get Mark Clattenburg at some meetings to say 'Gladiators ready!...' before each race. I would pay to watch that! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HGould 2,213 Posted March 18 17 hours ago, Chef1 said: Any suggestions?? If Riss could ride Tuesdays, and occasional Saturday, might be worth amending fixtures to accommodate him. So few alternatives of his quality available. Surely 7 men better than RR or weaker team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
