stemoc 187 Posted October 18, 2012 Well as Paulco would say part one of our plan complete agent Fenwick in place, Cookie now's your chance to impress the Comets management for a place next season and all you need to do is NOTHING. ;0)) In reality it would be a major shock (for me at least) if we came away with anything from this meeting, but I am sure the lads will do their best and whatever the score hope all stay safe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lucifer sam 3,953 Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Very local. I think from Falkirk? Yes, he comes from Falkirk and has done extremely well for the Saints given his almost total lack of speedway experience. Good luck tomorrow Tommy. All the best Rob Edited October 18, 2012 by lucifer sam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Young51 156 Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) Helfer is racing in a lot of end of season continental meetings according to reports Mr Snaps.. On another subject i see that Richard 'Rastaman' Lawson is being replaced by guest Aaron Summers on friday as his shoulder 'hasnt responded to treatment'. Call me Mr Cynical but isnt this is just a wee bit convenient after Richards pish poor showings at Armadale in the recent past,and last saturdays ahem grasstrack meeting at Derwent Park?! I'm prepared to be shot down in flames for doubting the poor wee soul.. if he has an excuse note written and signed by his mammy of course..

You could be dead right with that, but it's probably nothing that the Monarchs haven't done before 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EC Rides Again 143 Posted October 18, 2012 Yes, he comes from Falkirk and has done extremely well for the Saints given his almost total lack of speedway experience. Good luck tomorrow Tommy. All the best Rob Echo the good wishes for Tommy. His first wins against Stoke last month were some of the most happily celebrated 3 points that the EWR saw all season. He's a likeable whole hearted trier, and they are always welcome at a meeting I'm watching. But, realistically, any points the lad scores will be a bit of a bonus come Friday night. Mon the Monarchs ! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to see you try and ride after dislocating your shoulder haha. Dont think I have seen anyone in 14 years of watching speedway, ride after dislocating their shoulder and putting it back in and then going out and getting a paid win around BRough park! He has had shoulder problems before so I am sure he doesnt want to make the same mistake again. Is Rene back does anyone know? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been on a speedway bike before as it goes, but not i'm glad to say with a dislocated shoulder..even I'm not that mad! Personally i hope Rene is riding as he is always entertaining and gives it a crack.I was standing about twenty yards away from his crash at Owlerton on sunday and it was a scary one Here's hoping he's ok Edited October 18, 2012 by Young51 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

June 203 Posted October 18, 2012 As I go to Scunny AM meetings and love NL racing part of me is now thinking " Great that Tommy is being given a chance" but then realistically think this youngster is not ready for PL yet. BUT Edinburgh has no interest left in this competion and is doing a favour for one of their own youngsters ( yes I know he's a Scunny asset)..... To Tommy I say "Go out and score some points for the sake of both Edinburgh and Scunny" Thats a tough task for one whos only in his first year of speedway!....Rules, let fans make them, think they'd do a better job! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Personally i hope Rene is riding as he is always entertaining and gives it a crack.I was standing about twenty yards away from his crash at Owlerton on sunday and it was a scary one Here's hoping he's ok Looking like Rene's swelling has gone down, he definately gave us a scare on Sunday from where we were stood looked like he was going over the fence !!! Was talking to Richard after the Newcastle match and he said he had popped out his good shoulder I would imagine him being very sore this week. So Mr Cook would you lke to be a Comet again next season ? please have a bad night tomorrow . The lads will give 100% but I hold very little hope around Armadale not many teams take anything from there apart from their own track specialists , stay safe lads and the best of luck ...COME ON THE COMETS, we have them Scunnys sweating now , lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
