Nothing less than the minimum of a point required tonight. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They seem to be pretty dreadful ( my Swedish league knowledge is pretty limited ) but I don’t think they’ve won a match this season have they ?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted September 7, 2021 Just looked in SS, 1 point for a draw at home from 12 meetings. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We know Nicol scored well for us at Poole & Mountain scored well on Friday but are some of our guests just going through the motions earning their expenses rather than helping us & hurting their own teams, especially at this time of the year. A little more incentive (£s) might help us if Rob would just dig a bit deeper into his pockets but not bowing to rider demands but paying that little bit more to aid the saying "I'll scratch your back if you'll scratch mine". Even the top riders can score differently as in recent cases of guest riding in either league. Over the past month, Cook, Worrall & Lawson have had poor to mediocre scores (although Worrall scored well at Leicester on Saturday - 12 pt max getting set ups & track knowledge for future meetings) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weeyin 1,022 Posted September 7, 2021 Team manager for Scunny must take some blame for poor decisions , guests did great , especially Broc, shocking to go from 10 points up with 4 to go and lose, thought that was Glasgow's forte in some meetings 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jaizer 2,863 Posted September 7, 2021 Not sure I like that rule. Ruined heat 15 as a spectacle surely broc being excluded for what is a minor offence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted September 7, 2021 I can't believe what I have just witnessed, well , read but this is shocking & an absolute shambles thinking the job was done. We do have decent heat leaders when they turn up but other teams have better & more consistent at the business end of meetings(heats 11 - 15 as shown on Friday) & we have not learnt. Riders & management are to blame & it will be interesting to hear Dave Peets take on precedings! Ok, prior to meeting I would have been happy with 1 point but again, we throw it away. The last thing I want to see/hear is "after the interval we didn't adapt & they(Kent) adapted to the change". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
