waytogo28 2,054 Posted July 26, 2019 (edited) 2. 3 or four - even a Boris style clear out, would not put one extra bum on a seat. If you can't sell the thrilling racing invariably on offer at the NSS, you never will, except perhaps on another day when many more people want to watch speedway.

coldace 110 Posted July 26, 2019 I'm beginning to think that the best way forward for us is to get riders who are strong at the NSS. We don't do very well away and there are probably few riders available who will allow us to do so. This being the case, we have little chance of a two-leg win in the play-offs. If. however, we can get a big score at home then possibly we can defend it during the away leg. How about Bellago in plus a reserve who can score big at home?? I know this means that we have to replace one of the top five, but maybe it's time to do so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GAH 409 Posted July 27, 2019 if lemmo does swing the axe big style with 3 going ?? it won't be fricke/bjerre/bewley/lidsay ?? so not hard to guess who might go ?? if that 3 went ?? it would be 15.52 average wise ? NKI & HOLDER are around 7+ ? if we could get one them ?? then just have juggle what reserves are around ?? not sure on holders visa problems ? but he rode at SON at NSS in may !! iversen won't be involved in polish play/offs with Torun ( bottom) we may go for bellago who is great around NSS one thing for sure we need competitive changes to boost us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the idea is to make the team stronger in an effort to win the league, could be wrong though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still, a great performance. He's riding again today ! This time at home and should be a closer match. Worth noting that Luke Becker (USA and Wolves) also scored a max in the rout at Krakow. EDIT: For those still interested....................Lidsey scored his second maximum in two meetings when his team won 47-42 at home.

Steve0 5,517 Posted July 27, 2019 Looks like Frenchie has a broken collarbone from the SEC - so probably rules him out from any team changes at BV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hamish McRaker 601 Posted July 28, 2019 Another Australian would be no surprise. The one at Edinburgh called Josh, or maybe an English Josh? And to spice up things up a bit, what chance of Mr Garrity being let loose at the NSS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
