StevePark 2,780 Posted May 18, 2018 Teams as announced on the Diamonds Website: Newcastle: Lindgren (c), Stuart Robson - rider replacement or guest, Manzares (guest for Rose), Wethers, Aarnio, Wilkinson, Morris Berwick: Aaron Summers, Nikolaj Busk Jakobsen - Rider replacement, Dany Gappmaier, David Howe, Kevin Doolan (captain), John Lindman, Jye Etheridge, number 8 to be confirmed. Doubt Manzares will be guest as he's been injured at Scunthorpe tonight. So much for the team "for the future of the Diamonds." !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The White Knight 9,039 Posted May 18, 2018 I hadn't realised that. Thanks for the information. I hope Jakobsen is soon recovered. A shame - he is good to watch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nine times out of ten over-promising leads only to disappointment. IGWT, but this is a big let-down and I hope that an explanation is forthcoming tomorrow (Roy). 17 hours ago, The White Knight said: Doolan go[es] well around Brough. Well when he guested for us a couple of weeks ago he struggled to beat the opposition's reserves. This looks pretty much like a non-event now. Why not show somw imagination and run one of those 12 rider individual meetings instead, interspersed with a short-term individual for Archie Freeman at al?

Got a bit more opposition for Archie and Danny tomorrow night, if folks want to stay back and watch. Had others lined up for the 500's but now had a drop out.

allthegearbutnaeidea 1,734 Posted May 20, 2018 Well it’s the day of the meeting and no team news, wonder if Lindman’s recovered from his lack of getting on a plane yesterday and I wonder who Newcastle’s going to have for Rose and Robbo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a high, get to Newcastle and we come crashing dramatically bCk down. I'd like to think it won't happen but as long as we come away with a full team to continue with the proper stuff then it's game on 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
