Probably the worst team on paper in the last few years, in my opinion. Luckily, they ride on shale, so they have a chance to prove me wrong. Sincerely hope they do, because I don't like to see any team struggle.
I sponsored a riders kevlars for 2 seasons, & can assure you that he didn't have 2 sets. When they were damaged, he wore an old pair, or the Kevlars from his other team, as he was doubling up.
Lambert needs a more professional pit crew, & a few lessons on gating, & he could go all the way in my opinion. Lee was an amazing talent who was his own worst enemy, very similar to Ward.
Would love to see Kennett change his mind & sign for Newcastle, & there aren't that many matches per season now. If he signed for a southern team, he would still have all the away matches to travel to.
Strike a blow for the elder riders in the league, & have a good injury free season Carl. Always enjoy your efforts around the Showground, & long may it continue.
No rider apart from Lunna & Lambert have any chance of improving their average, in my opinion. It's more likely we will make an early change when a few averages drop.
