Are we really going us rr for Stewart for possibly six weeks? Okay we will prob score more points that way,,, but what about when he is fit? He clearly wasn't on the pace before the injury,, so I would imagine he would be even further away after 6 weeks or more off

This would be a perfect opportunity to use our remaining points up after the loss of Klint. Although it’s harsh on Jordan we really must sign BWD or a double up rider.  As there are only two small tracks in our league we need to sign a big track rider rather than say Ed kennett. 
if we don’t act sharpish we won’t have any points to play with due to Anders sensational start to the season and massive average increase.  
if we do get BWD he would be at reserve when Anders moves up !!!!!

We definitely need to replace Jordan, six weeks is more than half of the season. We only have 7 more home meetings this season so we can’t go RR for that long. As others have said we will lose the extra points available when Anders average goes up and end up with having to get guests for Jordan who will be at reserve. There are riders out there in this country available as King’s Lynn keep finding them. If the promotion doesn’t make changes this is going to be a very long & short season if you get what I mean.:(

I'm gonna imagine a new rider will be announced very soon,,, as surely no one in their right mind would let the averages change, without a new face.

 

And with possibly Kings Lynn after another rider after an injury to Kerr today,,, they better get a move on

Hope heeps gets back fit soon. For me very disappointed  what iv seen of him this year hasn't looked on the pace etc and thought he would be pushing on more this year . Speedy recovery  cam

So maybe it might be better if he doesn't rush back untill he is 120 % fit,,, and we have a guest or rr

Clearly Cook has issues....best stay well clear.

I think the whole team has issues. Rewind, start again in 2022. Should have put together a team to ride at National league level as well. Could end up with a short season. Shame but life is not fair.

Rewind and start again next year,,,, hear that alot,,, will be mostly the same, if not the same riders again,,, rewind start again 2023

A change of direction is needed not just at team level but for the sport as a whole. It cannot continue along the current path but those who own clubs have an exclusive agenda and stadia like the IOW get pissed on from a great height. If only the BSPL were more willing to listen then they may learn a thing or two about how to run an entertaining show for the punter instead of chasing averages and points limits. All most people seek is regular weekly competitive team racing, not the crap that is currently on offer. Standardise bikes, make riders hone their skills and cease the over powerful machines for the current track set ups in the U.K. It used to be good now it is dire.
