Hmmm. The new promotion better come up with some very good reasons why they don't want to use NBJ. Some communication on the reasons why should be forthcoming asap as its a strange decision. Why go through the process of giving him a year to bed in and then let Peterborough have his average increase? They need to start announcing signings as this decision has pissed a lot of fans off.

Wouldn't want Barker, he's a nob. Don't think him and Kennett see eye to eye either. Kennett, NBJ and Lykke if he can be fitted would be the only ones I'd want to see return.

Looks very narrow. Hope it's the angle of the photograph. Hope it's not another Tampere. As soon as someone first put a picture up of that up it was clear it was way too narrow. This looks similar.

Pretty obvious this would be the outcome after another awful season. I certainly won't be shedding a tear for silvers departure but he deserves thanks for his efforts up to 2010 for the club. He tidied up the stadium and signed some real quality young talent that were a joy to watch. The last five years have been abysmal & embarrassing. Rye should have been dominating the PL along with Edinburgh the last ten years but Silver became to arrogant & stuck in his ways. The last straw for me was when he basically told the fans to F off over the Jason Doyle episode. That showed Silver had become too arrogant and had lost touch. The lack of ambition that move showed was terrible. A lot of fans lost respect for him that day. It truly can't be any worse than the last five years so we need to see what Scott can do. He's had a season of seeing how not to do things so hopefully he can put right lens wrongs and get the club to where it should be. There's no reason if the stadium improvements are carried out and a good side is put together that the crowds won't return. Rye must have been averaging around the 1500 mark in the mid to late 2000's when Silver built good, exciting sides. The ingredients are there for the club to be one of the best in the PL and eventually EL if Scott makes the right decisions.

Can it be any worse than the last five years under Silver/Sampford? The club has been a f'ing embarrassment with diabolical performances and pathetic league positions.

Glasgow V Rye House Sunday 13th Sept @ 3pm
Chris replied to Gazc's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Surely Rye will be fined for an under strength side? Disgrace, but expected from Silver. What a joke the club is. -
Hemsley has proved he has no idea by designing and then not changing that track. It is awful and any old fool can see it but not Hemsley. You provide that track and crap sides then fans will disappear. His stubbornness towards track changes will cost him in the long run.

Gorzow Gp 29 August
Chris replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Excellent GP. Awful move from Doyle who is over riding to try and stay with the pack. -
Isn't it Len who can't work with his son? I seem to remember Andrew having a massive pop at Len after he cocked up the track for Peterborough meeting which resulted in a dust off for the NL meeting? Len has also admitted it was him who emailed Mellgren as well. Len seems to still be running everything & making all of the decisions. The quicker Scott can get rid of Silver & Sampford the better. Both have long outstayed their welcome. They should both be embarrassed by Ryes performances & league positions for the last few years.

Would be beyond stupid to not use NBJ next year after a year of learning the tracks in England.

Haven't got a problem with the two swedes going, but not a good way to do it, Robin has been poor and Anders just isn't the same rider since his back injury. He has lost all his confidence which is a shame as it looked as though he could turn into a very good rider when he first joined the club.
-
Anders Mellgren dropped in an email according to his Twitter. Classy way too do things eh?

Rye House Vs Ipswich - Sat 22nd August
Chris replied to IpswichDave's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
The clubs a mess & has been for years now. All down to Silver. My respect for that old fool went years ago. If he isn't gone before next season then it's clear Scott doesn't give a rubbish about the club. It's bizarre a guy who must have put in a decent amount of money in to buy a share is so disinterested. Not a peep out of him all season & does he even turn up occasionally? You would have thought that anyone with their finger on the pulse would have pulled silver up over many, many issues this season. Worrying really. -
Rye House Vs Ipswich - Sat 22nd August
Chris replied to IpswichDave's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Should be comfortable for Ipswich. Rye shouldn't be able to cope with R/R against any half decent side. -
Those quotes show why Rye have done sod all for years, one rider gets half the points and its slaps on the back and well done all round, Pathetic.
-
Rye are a poor side. If your getting wet over beating riders like Massen and Bowen then you should calm down. Bates or Garrity don't have the intelligence to go on and be top riders in the sport. Bates has even less ability than Garrity.
-
Garrity showing himself for the prat he is. Him and Bates don't have the iq of a Knat between them. Two thicker young men your unlikely to see. A shame they picked on a mild mannered man and not someone who will give them the good seeing to they both need. Perhaps Bates can fight a wall again? Comedy from the Sheffield fans laughing about have Garrity over Jackobsen. I know which one will go a lot further in their careers. The one who just finished second in a world under 21 final or a thicko who will hurt himself very seriously before long. Jackobsen has more ability in his little finger than Garrity has. The guy is a menace on a bike, His upbringing wasn't good and that shows clearly. Thought he was a prat when he rode for Rye and wasn't unhappy to see him leave. He'll get his comeuppance soon and there won't be a lot of tears shed anywhere.

Rye House V Newcastle... 1st August 7pm
Chris replied to Shadders's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Have been saying that for the last 4/5 years and remember you constantly licking Silvers behind for most of them saying there's no one better.. How some peoples views change eh. What with Kennett missing a home meeting it just shows how inept silver is at his job. The old fool has bent over backwards to do another club a favour at the cost of his own and lied in the process. -
Tungate is lying. Confirmed it with his "Auty was coming across the track at me" comment. Nothing of that sort happened whatsoever. He would gain more respect by coming out and admitting he done it deliberately now rather than lie. Everyone has seen the video now. There's no defence. Louis always going to defend his rider but poor from him.
-
A nice ban for Tungate coming up I assume. The video has him bang to rights. He wasn't even in a race for 2nd. He was that far behind that Davies knocked the throttle off before the line which is exactly what Tungate should have done. He knew he was never catching Davies but he wanted to take Auty out though & kept it wound on coming all the way out of bend two on a big track like Scunthorpe! Ha ha ha I think the no apology or hand up gives it away even further. Some of the Berks on here calling it inconclusive are comical. Tungate has about 250m to knock the throttle off from coming out of turn four to half way down the back straight but decides not to & "accidentally" knocks into a rider he just had a first bend incident with. Looks like he flicks the back wheel as well. No affinity to any club or rider but Tungate should be facing a ban. Very very dangerous.
-
Predictable stuff. Is Scott still around the club? Silver is like a cancer at the club I'm afraid. Surely Scott can see the old codger has pissed everyone off & doesn't know what he's doing? Now we have Sampford quoted as saying "the 42 day break has killed our season". No John the complete and utter f'k up of replacing a 6 point plus rider with a rider who won't average 3 is the reason. Prat. I'm struggling to remember a more idiotic team change.
