Super Blue Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Well, I'm pleased with 5 of the team and not so happy about 2 of them. I think the side overall will do reasonably well but it's not a trophy winning one in my opinion. Will go into some depth later when I've had a chance to take it in and not supposed to be working.

Shadders Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Covatti is a decent signing at reserve, but Neilsen seems to get himself into a lot of bother and is frequently injured Edited December 9, 2014 by Shads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalSin Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) Covatti is a decent signing at reserve, but Neilsen seems to get himself into a lot of bother and is frequently injuredHe does tend to bite the dust an awful lot, but he can be quick when he stays upright. No offence to Joe Jacobs who seemed like our other option, but I definitely think we made the right decision in going for Nielsen. Edit: Come to think of it, both Covatti and Manzares seem to like the taste of shale too so we could be in for some long drawn out evenings on the Heath next year!!

Panthers89 Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 with what you had left, 2 decent signings with potential for improvement in both. Certainly a capable team, but for winning honors, not for me, but you never know how the season will unfold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noahelias Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Don't think that team is going to do much… would have much preferred: King Risager Gino Heeps Hawkins Sissis/Lanham/Jake Allen Ellis That team would have been under the point limit too!

Roland Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 How many other PL teams have 3 SWC riders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Yet another good Ipswich PL team on paper. Can they finally get it right? As it is, I think any team will be playing second fiddle to a Sheffield tea that looks pretty immense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 But like all Sheffield terms, it will be pretty poor on away tracks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pob Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Nico Covatti - Italy Gino Manzares -USA Danny King - GB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 pleased with that. could have been much worse! Covatti will smash that average. Don't care who you are, any rider 1 ride away from the gp must do ok at premier league reserve position. If he does than Cam, Richie or even Gino my drop down so will always be strong. Still feel for Adam though. And I cant quite get how Sheffield look immense! For me Somerset, and Glasgow look better. Must be bit worrying for Monarchs fans no Cook or Masters signed yet lol 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The H Man Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 Covatti is a superb signing, an absolute steal on that average. Birmingham messing him about last year, left him frustrated and well out of pocket, I think that affected his performances for Sheffield without doubt. Now he is fully prepared for a whole campaign, he will be a real asset. I know Armando Castagna really rates him and he showed in the SWC what he is capable of.

Baldyman Posted December 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 He should easily up his average and brings sponsorship money. Win win for Ipswich. Really do hope Ellis finds a team spot somewhere and has had great season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Ippo do look to have a very decent team on paper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Armando Castagna really rates him and he showed in the SWC what he is capable of. if he was that good then Sheffield would have signed him I'm sure, as they would have had first option, his equipment leaves a lot to be desired, but you never know it could be a good signing.
