NeilWatson 1,988 Posted July 8, 2016 COVENTRY are pleased to announce adult admission for Monday's clash with King's Lynn has been reduced to just £10. The Buildbase Bees will be in action at Brandon for the first time in over six weeks after frustrating rain-offs on June 17 and July 1. They will also have a full seven-man team on track as the decision has been taken to dispense with the rider-replacement facility for the injured Jason Garrity, whose place will be taken by squad member Ben Barker as Bees go for the double after winning at King's Lynn last month. The Stars have re-declared their line-up with former Coventry man Rory Schlein set to make his comeback from injury as a replacement for Mads Korneliussen, whilst they will be led by Danish superstar Niels-Kristian Iversen and British sensation Robert Lambert. Naturally a televised fixture offers the opportunity for the club's current situation to be portrayed to a wider audience, and banners and messages of support etc would be most welcome as we push for a home for 2017. All adult admission will be £10, with children FREE as usual. Please note that whilst the re-admission tickets from the Swindon match earlier this month can be used on Monday, no change will be given, so we would suggest these are saved for a later date. There are two further Friday night Elite League matches in the month of July. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woz01 3,589 Posted July 8, 2016 Barker is a 2nd string rider who rides Brandon well, right decision for me! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 8, 2016 A real signing? Is he make believe then?! 😌 No but he's not a new or strong signing. He's been listed in our team since the season started but has not been used or in form. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's been listed in our team since the season started but has not been used or in form.He is a bit like Milik and Garrity though, scare people to stay behind him! Or has he calmed down now? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bee 26 426 Posted July 8, 2016 Can't be any worse than running with RR, how many meetings will he miss? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g13webb 4,254 Posted July 8, 2016 Can't be any worse than running with RR, how many meetings will he miss? Never been a Barker lover, but he must be better than using R/R. Apart from slowing a meeting down with extra waiting between heats, RR puts extra pressure on the riders who are use to replace Garrity, especially the ones who are struggling..... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted July 10, 2016 Light rain expected between 12-5 tomorrow. Hopefully it is just light rain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted July 10, 2016 With the new averages starting from Monday, Bates moves in to the main team and Sarjeant joins Woryna at reserve. Going to miss Bates being able to take extra rides. Ben Barker slots in as a 2nd string. For King's Lynn, Rory returns from injury. Batchelor drops to a 2nd string position Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
