Hearing whispers of Jake Turner heading to a northern track, must be either Edinburgh or Berwick. Hope the rumours are true he’s a talent for the future could be a real dark horse at Edinburgh. 

Must it.?

I have not had a call from anyone in the top league and that has angered me. I thought I showed enough when guesting last year but that will be Edinburgh’s gain as I am channelling all of that emotion into doing the best I can for the Blue and Gold.

Can't say I agree with Paco's comment about being overlooked for the Prem, I can't see a single club that would be strengthened by his signing on a 4.00 average.

But I think he's a good signing for Edinburgh. Could be a 6.5 rider next year.

Absolutely. Why would a top tier team be interested in a bang average second tier rider.

Possibly headed to Berwick then? Either would be nice, hope to see him get a team place somewhere. He’s a lovely kid and fantastic on a bike especially when he misses the start.

Looks like a top 5 that have ridden forMonarchs before. No new faces.

This the same guy who was at Plymouth who looked like he was going to fall constantly and wasn’t very good?

I think Birmingham made a mistake not signing him,  he’d be on a 3.53, is a fan fav there and rides Perry Barr like a championship heat leader so would be good for 5 or 6 at home most weeks alongside 3 or 4 away at most tracks I’d say

Yip if he got round the 1st and 2nd bend he usually fell at the 3rd.

Instead of who though? Brum seem to be finding it hard enough to fill their top two spots without weakening their bottom end.

Fully agree there. Was sure Birmingham would give him a call to double up and especially on that average.  No denying that Paco is a real showman with an infectious enthusiasm which he is not shy to demonstrate.  A PC celebration is a highly entertaining addition to a meeting which fans seem to lap up.  Great team player too.
