Could be lewy.
-
I think it's an Australian, but which one i would not have a guess, Lee in the paper said the rider would need a van to get him to the meetings, so it must be an overseas rider, if it was Cook surely he would already have a van, i would not want Fisher back, he made his feelings clear of his dislike for the track at the SBA, if i had a choice i would go for Cameron Woodward, but thats just my choice and no way a rider that Lee and Seemond might go for.
-
Yeh sure is, can't always have what you want, it was only a rider that i would like to come to Plymouth, i don't think for one minute it was a rider that the team manager was looking at, i could name a few more if you like but it would only be a guess if they were wanted by the club wouldn't it.
-
Yeh i bet Cory's not happy with his riding last year, but if Lee thinks he can do a job for the team, then i will like all the supporters will, back him all the way.
-
I would rather have Robin Aspegren than Gathercole, but i have a feeling Lee wants Gathercole, like you Mike, Gathercole did not impress me last year to want to bring him back this year, you can only judge a rider on what you see yourself, and he was average at the sba, and less than average away, i think he is a much better rider that what he showed last year, but there are better riders around that would come before him, going on last years display by him for the Devils.
-
Whoever Lee is interested in to ride at number 1 he rides in the EL, so if it's not Cook it will be a very good rider, i have faith in the team manager to find a very good rider.
-
That will do for me Lewy, Dilger was very good when he came down with Redcar, good team just the same,cant always be right Not far off lewy, enuff for a good reserve.
-
This is something like the line-up i would like to see at the sba. 1, Craig Cook 7.76. 2, Emiliano Sanchez 5.83. 3. Cory Gathercole 6.59. 4, Ricky Wells 6.41. 5, Dakota North 6.89. 6, Todd Kurtz 5.15. 7, 3.77.

Mike i will drink to that
-
Mike i agree with you about Doyle and Morris, yes they are good riders both i would not have both in my team, i think any rider on a 8 point cma should be at number 1 in any PL side, i would take him has our number 1 yes, i don't agree with you about Davies and Newman improving in the main body of the team, at reserve then i can see Newman doing a good job, but at number 4 it will be hard for him, and by having to weak reserves the option if he don't do well of him droping down will be hard also unless one of the reserves out scores him, i think the starting line-up that Somerset had last year was spot on, and was by far the best side to come to the sba, and was very unlucky not to win the play-off come the end.
-
I wouldn't pick any of the riders Somerset have signed to be in my dream team, three good heat leaders, but the rest no thanks, if you sign any rider with a cma of over nine you end up with two weak reserves like we did last year when we had two over nine, and like Somerset have this year when they have one over nine, one of eight and one of 7.44, using 24.61 on three riders, next year there will be a lot of presser on Newman and Davies, we know the top three will do well, but that means nothing if your second string don't, i just hope Lee don't go down that same road.
-
I would think that the two year extension will start after next year, because there is already a year to run on it, i'm not sure on that but if it is then three years will give the consortium plenty of time to decide what they are going to do i would think, i think buying the sight would be the way ahead, because that will not only give them the site the track is on, it will also give them the land the Rugby Pitch is on next to it, and if you put them both together you have a piece of land to build a very good Speedway Stadium on.

Plymouth Devils can be the biggest team in the league. http://www.thisisplymouth.co.uk/Seemond-Stephens-Plymouth-Devils-biggest-team/story-17510980-detail/story.html

Who was the last promoter, i can't remember his name, i have forgotten him already
-
If it's Covatti i hope he's better than the last Italian we had, looking at his last season form he could be, but Sanchez will do to.
-
Didn't know you got drums with tom tom, but if you do, and if your right then that is a move in the right direction, if we are to have a team next year to compete with the top sides in the PL, it is crucial that we have a top number 1 rider, and a good reserve, and if he can get Todd we are on the way, then build a team around them, for the last two years we have had a great number 1 rider in the team, but Lee had his hands tied by the promoter who said who came into the team, with him gone now Lee can sign riders he want's rather than a promoter who did not have a clue how to build a speedway team.
-
Now your talking Steve, but Sanchez will be the only one of the two we are going to see, if any, shame still the same.
-
If i had a choice between him and Ricky Wells then i would go for Ricky, i think if Cory signs he would have to ride at 4, i don't see him has an heat leader to be honest, but i think he could do a job at 4.
-
Both Taylor Poole and Dakota North were very poor when they came to the SBA with Ipswitch, Tressarieu was a little better, Ricky Wells would come before the three mentioned, i woudn't say no to Dakota North, but Poole and Tressarieu i woudn't want and others would come before them, Kenny Ingalls for one, plus Cameron Woodward would be a great number one.

http://www.thisisply...tail/story.html Two riders that were expected to be on Lee Triggers wanted list for this years team, fully agree with him.
-
It does say in the Plymouth Sunday Independent that, supporters will be keen to see the new promoters take over officially so they start putting together a team for the 2013 season. Any talk about riders ia premature at the moment as the consortium have still to complete the formalities of securing a licence to promote at the St Boniface Arena. Until then consortium representatives are not allowed to make any approaches to riders. So we will just have to wait until then before we hear anything about what riders the club will be looking at.
-
Just put it this way, be there early for the first meeting next year, i have a feeling there will be big support for the Devils next year.
-
It should have been a straight jacket, not a blue jacket he had on, but things won't be the same without him on the centre green
-
All i will say if i was the new owners, NO THANKS.

Bowden offers his help to new Devils owners. http://www.thisisplymouth.co.uk/Bowden-offers-help-new-Devils-owners/story-17454479-detail/story.html Make up your own mind's about that, i'm not saying anything.
