Lakeside v Workington 27/10/10 play off final 1st leg
Mjolnir replied to cityrebel's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
It’s been a tough, tough season for fans and club this year, in so many ways. So much optimism at the start of the season -
Lakeside v Workington 27/10/10 play off final 1st leg
Mjolnir replied to cityrebel's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Funnily enough, I joked about the opposite - Workington were happy to go out for another heat after they got a 5-1, but not again after being on the receiving end in heat 13 I actually think we still would have extended the lead overall if we’d completed the meeting, even with the change in conditions. -
Completely agree, it looked a bit naughty from where I was standing too. It also certainly looked like there was contact from Cook (who was very impressive all night) when Nick hit the fence in heat 15. Really glad that Richard won the last race.

Lakeside Future In Serious Doubt
Mjolnir replied to KevH's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
They should start dismantling and auction bits off before the vandals turn up, I’d bid on all sorts of tat! Still trying to figure out how I feel about the whole situation, but going to Rye for the rest of the season certainly makes sense at this stage. -
Lakeside Future In Serious Doubt
Mjolnir replied to KevH's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
If I had a quid for every time I’ve said that phrase about Arena ... well, I’d probably be able to build us a new track! It’s our s**t hole! And I’ll miss it if / when it goes. All this talk of needing to lose clubs to amalgamate into a sustainable league leaves a bad taste ... but I wouldn’t be surprised if that’s in the minds of some. -
Lakeside Future In Serious Doubt
Mjolnir replied to KevH's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Sad day indeed mate. I’ve been going to Arena my entire life, it’s not just speedway and my club that I’d miss but all the memories I’m reminded of when I’m there. I can’t help but feel a bit pessimistic about the future of the Hammers at this stage but I really hope there’s some encouraging news to follow from the promotion. -

Looked a nasty crash that one - speedy recovery Danny! -
Witches v Hammers KOCup Round 1 Leg 1 3rd May
Mjolnir replied to dontforgetthefueltapsbruv's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Decided to drive up for this one after missing the good friday fixture due to the weather ... hoping for some good racing and another win for the Hammers! Shame that we’re without Zach but I’d say it’s possibly evened out with the Witches having to use R/R ... would love to see a few points for Alfie tonight. Always impressed by the stadium improvements that have been made in recent years. -
Completely agree - very pleased with our new manager so far.

I hope you’re right! I think it’s probably quite fortunate timing for us to be visiting. Still, much stranger things have happened in speedway!

Rye House V Leicester Lions 11/04/2018
Mjolnir replied to JamesM09's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I’ve come along as as neutral this evening, usually I’d be cheering for the Rockets but I’d like to see Leicester do well this year too. Hope it’ll be a good close meeting! -
Lakeside v Peterborough frid 6th april 8 pm CS
Mjolnir replied to waco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
As a few others have already said - I’m surprised that you think that. Morley is the only rider in the team that I might expect to score much different away than he does at home (he’s really got Arena figured out) and Lawson is great at home but through perseverance - he first arrived at the club as very much a big track rider. On the other hand, from memory I’d say Morris has been up and down round our place in the past and Ellis previously struggled with the track as a Hammer. Plenty of the Lakeside team should score well away from home this season, which is something we’ve often lacked in the past and it’s one of the reasons I was pretty happy with the team that was put together. Can only assume you were trying to get a few bites, in which case congratulations Anyway, we did pretty well around your place recently didn’t we? -
I’m hoping to do the same, fingers crossed for the weather!

I hope you’re right!

Well ... I did not expect that heat 1 result! -
Peterborough v Lakeside CS - Sunday 25th March
Mjolnir replied to bigcatdiary's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I’m still finding it difficult to call what I think the result will be at this early stage of the season. The Hammers certainly looked ready to go on Friday and hopefully that meeting will give us an edge. I could be wrong but I think Zach will be starting the season at reserve, which is useful as I think Morley and Bowtell would probably struggle as a reserve pairing at the Showground against your 6&7. I’m hoping that Lawson, Ellis and Newman can be the difference for us. -
It’s always more interesting to have more variety - hope it continues to go well!

That’s a shame Steve, hope you manage to get hold of a copy at some point

Ipswich V Lakeside Good Friday 2.15pm
Mjolnir replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I’m hoping to get up to Ipswich for this, I’ve always enjoyed my visits there over the years and now that Lakeside are back in the same league as the Witches I have all the more reason to go! Should be an interesting meeting, I think Ipswich have put together another great team this season. Honestly not sure what I’m expecting the score to be at this early stage though! -
He looked so comfortable on the bike - watching him from the back straight he was coming off the 2nd bend so smoothly! How long has he been riding a Godden Jonny? If last night is anything to go by it certainly seems to be working for him!
