Woke23 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 I think Bickley is worth the risk on such a low average. He's 23 years old, would be coming in to a league that is considerably weaker than years gone by, and he'd be able to compete at reserve level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Do not think Kyle would be interested in a comeback , he has been for a skid now and again but I think thats it for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neila Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 Both are / were of a similar standard, but think Kyle lost his enthusiasm for the sport, probably hasn't got it back. Where max was riding last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely superb around Northside but his away form has probably left him without a team. I thought he'd be at Scunny for sure. Strange how he worded his statement though - "change of plan". Wonder if a team, such as scunny, has had a change of heart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big thanks to Antti for the last few years riding for us always professional and reliable as well as providing some unbelievable races. I’ll miss watching him around NS hopefully we wears the Blue and White again. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where max was riding last year Kyle is many times a better rider than Max with equipment levels even further above (temperament is a different issue) however the bigger issue is that every year people are bringing up retired/returning riders and thats simply because there isn't enough of a pipeline in place to fill places, thats because the NL's are in a poor state and thats because of those who run the sport. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedwaySlider72 Posted January 13 Report Share Posted January 13 It would be good for Bickley (or any Brit) to return. Need them in our sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was full value at the GT Tyres arena for sure. Edited January 13 by SteelShoe 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like what was the interviewer on 😝 very poor asking questions then went off on a long ramble missing the question he wanted to ask. I only lasted 15 minutes, may try to watch again.

Ben91 Posted January 14 Report Share Posted January 14 Have to say I like the look of this Workington team thus far. As has been said already so much hinges on Craig Cook but if he is firing they probably have the strongest top three in the league. That strong top three will potentially take a little heat off of Zischke too, seems like a big year for him. Very interested to see who takes the last two spots.
