  1. He shouldn’t be taking any rides. Absolute joke to British youngsters.
  2. As expected, Jacob Hook signs to replace Stoneman.
  3. cheers for the sensible reply in the discussion, Mr Juul
  4. having someone stay at your house, and cleaning their bikes and spannering for them isn’t being a mentor, it’s being a landlord and a mechanic?
  5. I wish, no chance, jobs for the boys these days.
  6. Signing Borke is all well and good, but if you can’t find a rider to score a single point on a 2, it’s pointless, Borke/Fredriksen might get a point or two more than Fredriksen/Hook, but if you don’t have a 7th rider, you’re losing the 2/3 that Bickley was getting most weeks.
  7. Gary Flint had TJ lined up early doors, whilst trying to tie down Bomber to join him, before hearing about Rory and preferring that option, so he says. This is what we’re dealing with, he genuinely wanted TJ and reiterated his average wasn’t false and he’s a different rider now. He talked about it on a podcast.
  8. That seems the best option to me, hopefully the promotion are proactive
  9. And then a week after that his average will change?
  10. How many meetings does Jonas have left until he goes up?
  11. There’s nothing better than seeing your team win away from home, you don’t have to apologise for celebrating, most clubs just got no atmosphere these days, the happy clappers.
  12. I fail to believe that there wasn’t a single rider under 4 who would of done a better job than Clegg/Ablitt, as Joe Thompson would outscore the pair of them on his own every meeting anyways. Shocking call from Godfrey and has ruined a decent looking team. Just seen heat 3 on Basso’s instagram, who was fighting in the pits afterwards? Cant imagine Clegg being a fighter.
  13. They’d bank on losing less money from doing double headers rather than stand alone NL meetings, but set the price so high that it put people off attending anyways, imo.
  14. I disagree, Blair never started heat 2, Connor was at the back in heat 4, and Leon was getting passed by Lambert either way in heat 5 due to his teammate being so slow in front of him. I don’t think Scunthorpe won a single point due to luck, you could argue Blair might of beat Ablitt in ht2 but when you don’t even get off the line then I think that goes out of the window.
  15. Time for Jye to go. Nearly cost us the meeting tonight from some awful riding. Luckily Douglas’ bike problems saved us but no excuses from Jye, not good enough.
  16. The loan fee is pennies to each club, and i’m sure is now decided upon by BSPL, if everyone gave up their assets, no one would be bothered, apart from the BSPL who can sell these riders to other clubs when their clubs fold. I’d imagine quite a lot of riders these days are ‘unattached’/‘BSPL’ assets due to their parent club not existing anymore.
  17. Assets mean nothing whatsoever apart from a name on a piece of paper and haven’t done for a very long time. If Redcar are offering £60 per point and Oxford are offering £65 per point, and he lives closer to Oxford, that’s where he’s going to go, he’s a young lad, they have 15-20 years if they’re lucky to make as much money as they can. Put it into the real world, if you’re a salesman and another firm offered you an extra £2 per hour, you’d probably move.
  18. Tbf I’d be expecting Dan Thompson to beat Zach Cook around Leicester, he’s grown up on the track and knows it as well as any Leicester rider. Zach’s a slightly better rider but not round Leicester.
  19. skulduggery? riders are guns for hire, it’s up to Jordan Jenkins where he wants to ride, not Oxford, not Redcar.
