Paulco 7,070 Posted September 5, 2017 Probably pointless starting a thread for this as the forecast is pretty horrendous for Thursday , but in the off chance the weather forecasters have it wrong , it's a warm welcome to the Comets . We're in a mess , form has dipped , and we have a major injury crisis to the bottom end of the side . Perry and Lunna have no chance and Bewley must be in the extremely doubtful category . We only beat the Comets by 2 points earlier in the season , so they could come sniffing a victory . Cook , Proctor and Tommy the tape toucher can push our three heat leaders and after that it's anybodys guess depending on who we can rope in to cover . But all that might be irrelevent as i'm tipping the rain to win the day . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Weeyin 1,020 Posted September 5, 2017 Unfortunately I think Paulco may be right, forecast for Thursday is horrendous, that may be a blessing in disguise though as we are going through an injury crisis, with 3 of our bottom end injured. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MD 1,305 Posted September 5, 2017 If it goes ahead its Pickering for Lunna and r/r for Bewley. No word on Perry's replacement, choice isnt great though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MD 1,305 Posted September 5, 2017 Sarj fits - I reckon most Worky fans would be happy for him to swap sides 😜 We were there in 2015 and he was not too bad though hasnt progressed beyond reasonable reserve/poor second string in his career. Simon Lambert the only experienced rider I can see who would fit or Liam Carr who may be worth a punt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New era Panthers 2,055 Posted September 5, 2017 (edited) We were there in 2015 and he was not too bad though hasnt progressed beyond reasonable reserve/poor second string in his career. Simon Lambert the only experienced rider I can see who would fit or Liam Carr who may be worth a punt. Simon loves Derwent park, regards it as is 2nd favourite. Sure he would love to guest for Tigers if available. Sorry didn't realise it was at Glasgow not sure about Simon around Ashfield.

damosuzuki 696 Posted September 6, 2017 Fixtures as usual a joke. Weeks off at the height of the summer and now we are left with injury crisis and autumn weather. In the minority but I just want this to go ahead. Seems unlikely atm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SharpenRake 1,505 Posted September 6, 2017 It's quite funny that teams wouldn't come to face us when we had blank dates in the summer cos they would have riders missing and now most teams are being forced to ride in September when the weather is worse and they will have riders missing 😣 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
