  4. Just announce Richard Lawson and put this Harris rumour to bed. Then we can enjoy weeks nay months of splash the cash Tigers from a set of fans from way way down south luvvvly. I’m backing Blobby that his quote on this is indeed the truth.

  7. I don't mind that. He is good at Poole! Got 17 for Berwick (dropped one point) or maybe he was guesting for someone at Poole. I would have to double check updates to know for sure. He has won the league for Poole in 2018 and his race against Doyle in playoff SF that year is still talked about. He also gets the best reception at Poole of any former Poole rider. If he wants to come back, he is very welcome!

  8. Probably the atmosphere to be honest. The meetings between Ipswich & Lynn in the early mid 90s we're awesome. I remember traveling to Lynn on a cold October evening to support Ipswich in the mid 90s. I can't. Remember what the meeting was possibly the final league match but the place was full to capacity the atmosphere electric & I think Bryce & Spicer probably had the meeting of their careers for you guys that evening. The good Friday morning & afternoon meetings were also superb. Happy days!

  15. Given that Lasse finished with a higher average than Jacob (albeit still under 4), despite spending the whole season in the top 5, logically it would make sense to declare the stronger rider as the reserve. However, if Fredriksen still doesn't go over 4 from reserve, Hook will be stuck at number 2. A lack of points there could destroy him. He tends to jump out the start, and sometimes grab a win, once per meeting. I hope he's learned a lot from this season. Nowhere near the worst rider I've ever seen and one I would be happy to see included in 2023.

  16. If Vissing is at Glasgow I’m positive he will improve his average.

  17. Agreed , Neil Collins in 92 was a bit of a disappointment, but when he came back a few season later he was more like a number 1 . The same could happen with Harris

  31. Think Hume is an awkward one,,,, definitely has the potential to be better,,, but like with a few riders,, not sure his style will allow it,,,, he is constantly on the edge of lifting and throwing it on the fence,, due to his sitting further back on his seat positioning. If he could change that I could see a decent improvement,,,, but without changing it,, I think his scoring potential is almost at its peak. He is a decent gater and has big plums,, but going faster than he does now without binning it is difficult

  32. Not saying TRick didn't ever team ride, just not as much as the mentioned riders which wouda bin pretty much impossible. Would love to have seen the race mentioned, Crump also got done by NickiP in a SWC meeting, enjoy clever tactics from anyone....

  33. Personally would rather see the great racing that scunthorpe and Redcar produces than rubbish racing and massive home wins. Nobody really cares who wins the league so would rather be entertained at the meetings I attend

  34. Don’t think it’s that cut and dried, why choose a rider who wants to be elsewhere? why do the likes of Freddy and Tai not ride for us if they do what they’re told? They’re our assets after all.

  39. Makes me laugh when someone says the leagues are almost the same strength, if Leicesters table topping side was assembled in the Premiership it would be approximately 29 points, 10 below the limit. Not remotely close is it really

  40. Over and above my feelings about him, it doesn't make sense to have 2 8.5 plus riders who will probably drop their averages from what they start season with. Leaves a very long tail.

  42. Tbf to belle Vue. We have an event on 8th December to tell us all that. And rider reveals. So no point telling us now. Always better to find out in person

  43. I know about the planning permission to tarmac the car park and mark it out but I think that's unlikely to happen. I don't park in the car park but it's a definite put off trying to walk through it especially when the pot holes are full of water!

  46. They may want to go with a 4 pointer and a 3 pointer though. There is no rule that you have to go with a 2 pointer. Though if we are going with one then I'd be surprised if it wasn't Ablitt. But Matt does have a habit of springing a shock signing every now and again. Just to keep us on our toes! Haha.

  47. Praising just the robust business model that the Fords operate. Stick to Wednesday night racing has been their aim, and full marks to them for not being “persuaded” to move.

  48. As good as winning trophies in the noughties was I preferred the eighties and nineties when we weren't very good but the racing was often immense. Remember last heat deciders most weeks with Loram and Gustafsson trying to save the meeting in heat 15 when neither could gate for toffee, would love things to be like that again. So personally I'd say racing over winning.
