  1. Which is a fair point, but nobody is Lauding Ford for bringing a Brit in to replace an Aussie where Leicester are being slated for the reverse - albeit with a Pole. Possibly me just reading things the wrong way. Was never going to be easy to replace Brady at this point in the season and probably the best of a bad bunch choice wise.
  2. Poole slated for signing a 'young' Brit.. .Leicester slated for dropping one! Can't make it up can you!
  3. Could you not swap Wilson Dean and Gapmier for Ayres and Sedgy?
  4. Which I totally agree with, be interesting to see if he makes the qualifier and doesn't qualify how much stick he gets for not taking the experience when getting the second/third chance (presuming he doesn't of course)
  5. Reading Craig Cooks interview in the SGP website he says he's had several call from Poland -including the top league but won't give up his Brotish commitments for it- which a lot of people have been screaming at him for years for not doing- dammned if you dammed if you don't in this sport these days!
  6. Agreed, spent the trip over from Newport telling my brother who only goes to Cardiff (beacause the family all go) that Brady was riding and he'd be a fool to miss him around the oak tree...... had to buy a lot of beers in return
  7. Could you fit Alex Davies back in?
  8. As much as I loathe the bspa reading this does have me thinking they are dammed if they do,dammed if they don't. We as fans have begged for brits to get a chance to develop in the 'top' league over here, they do and the warriors at saying X n y riders aren't good enough, waste of time etc etc....while I agree that it wasn't done 100% in the right way an attempt has been made to improve riders! Stevie Worrall for example has thrived. Fact is, we need the aussies, from my own experience it's rarely the brits that stay around after a meeting to chat with fans, have a beer in the old days have a laugh and joke...brits not so much. As a kid growing up I met Crumpy at Swindon in his first time there, he took the time to speak to me, even gave me a cap that I still have now...I've loved the sport ever since.. no Brit did that in 29 years of watching! Yet we lament the brits for interacting negatively on social media with fans.. primarily they are thryingnto provoke a reaction from a rider anyway. Th aussies are needed fact, we have to admit that while fans are willing to turn their back on our sport due to silly' rules were not funding the sport...the poles are all over it, they have money, they are successful ....they pay a shed load more, it's the place to be to progress which also has been said that the brits lack ambition by not getting Polish spots or taking their chances there.....exactly what the aussies are doing! While I understand Matt Fords point of view that he wants his riders here to ram in the crowds he's not the big dog in the sport any more!
  9. If the Chapman's are now involved at Leicester would Norrie Allen still be TM? Could you see Mads returning if he isn't given the Kings Lynn link?
  10. You could go buzz and Ludwig with sedgman if Wozniak isn't back! Or Schlein for either.... I think
  11. How about; Nilsson Auty Summers Sedgeman / ludvig Wozniak Ashley Morris Ben Morley
  12. Clegg, a 2 pointer and huckenbeck would fit?
  13. Was just looking at who's left, Brady seemed to be someone mentioned a lot on here. Todd fits and has had a few good meetings up there and Alex also fits, meaning one of him or Lambert would be at reserve.(or TK)
  14. Not sure if I'm using the correct averages but Brady, Todd and a return for Alex Davies would just fit?
  15. Could Nick Morris and Todd Kurtz be in contention apologies if already mentioned...just thinking of the drillerman links?
  16. Had to love Sam sticking up for him!! He was just setting himself up, had that been Nicki P turning left after looking all hell would have broken loose.
  17. Was told there were rumours of a Carmarthen v Exeter challenge match for a second half? Anyone know if this is true, the old man is adamant he's seen it but I cant find anything?
  18. your actually right I think it was someone hit him off waiting to go into the pits as a head lock came in at the same time!!! too many Xmas beer blurring the memory!!
  19. Your forgetting Mick Powell's move on Emil Lindqvist bend 4 at Newport there Pinnny lad....... and the resulting stamp on the shoulder that pretty much ruined his career! that was a case of going after a rider if I've ever seen one
  20. Could Rasmus Jensen be an option on 5.92? With the 3 pointer would that fit?
  21. Too much of a coincidence that BWD's twitter pic is of him riding in a Somerset race jacket? guess we'll find out soon....
  22. Batch and Bech would fit... just!
  23. Maybe way too long in the tail for away matches but given rumour's on who's going where? Brady 8.73 Charles Wright 6.89 Richie Worrall 6.84 Paul Starke 6.00 (Rasmus Jensen - 5.92) Cam Heeps 5.87 Robin Aspegren 4.82 3.00 pointer 42.15
  24. Thanks!! Even if he was to be back maybe a bit of a gamble on that figure.
  25. Is there any way Rob Mear would be tempted back? What would he come in on in the PL?
