tellboy 3,653 Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) Got to get the ball rolling early to take my mind off our defeat in the play-off final So Somerset and Kings' Lynn both have injury problems ahead of the final. BWD and Summers are injury doubts and Holder is definitely out for Somerset. For King's Lynn MPT season is finished but could NKI be back next week. We have had decent results at Somerset in the past,but the last one was a shocker for us.I'm hoping Lynn bring in C.Wright for MPT he goes quite well around there i believe.I hope that wouldn't upset anyone.

Pretty sure Niels said he is riding when interviewed on the telly! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cliffeboy 577 Posted October 11, 2018 It’s going to be very hard for the Rebels to get anything out of this I think. Three riders down is too much , BWD and Jack are big misses , and Summers was showing good form when he got injured. If Lawson was on better form i think Gary may have gone for r/r to give Doyle another ride, not sure now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did hear at the track that he would be riding next week.But SS and his reliable source said Ellis was riding,i should have learnt by now not to take any notice of him.Will be nice to have nearly a full team for the KO Cup,although missing MPT is a hammer blow to the team as proved last night he is pretty irreplaceable at the moment.

Wednesday is at Somerset, Thursday at King's Lynn. So Ellis is eligible but after his Play-Off performance if Iversen isn't fit I should imagine another guest would be sort after.

I'm sure Iversen will be fit,if not Hans Andersen will do he gives his all no matter what.Lives local too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss 10,683 Posted October 12, 2018 Really hope this isn’t another final decided by injuries and guests, it’s a pity the cup can’t be ridden and decided early in the season so it’s separate from the Play Offs. Would be great to win and not end the season empty handed but Somerset have good riders (the fit ones) and it will be a tough final. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
