Ommer Mon 381 Posted May 8, 2014 With Tom Perry out injured and the possibility of Matt Williamson also being missing (I've heard Michael Neale could be deputising) this could be a close encounter. Could the silverware be under threat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could the silverware be under threat? Michael Neale will deputise for Tom Perry , Cradley were going to use rr but apparently only an unattached 3 pointer is allowed, Im unsure what the situation is regarding Matt Williamson, but if he is also missing I would guess again its another unattached 3 pointer, If both are missing, I would put the strongest Unattached 3 pointer at reserve, and to be honest I was one who was calling for us to sign Michael Neale in the close season.

adz_mft 230 Posted May 8, 2014 Can't see why you can't use R/R for Perry.We used R/R for Bates on Monday due to injury. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rules from the SCB handbook indicate that a RR can be used for Tom but not for Matt. FACILITIES In the NL the eligible reasons for a Facility is extended to cover any other reason, eg. Work, school, holidays etc. a) Any Absent Rider (if on EL duty) G (who must be in a NL Line-Up) or RR Absent #1: G (who must be in a NL Line-Up) or RR c) Absent Rider (2 – 5): RR d) Two Absent Riders (2 -5) 1 x RR and 1 x G (Team Manager discretion) e) all other Absentees **: any Rider not in a NL Declaration and whose MA does not exceed NL 3.00 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heathen1984 139 Posted May 8, 2014 It's r/r for Perry, Cradley have already come out and said that. Neale is replacing Williamson who is at Peterborough the same night Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyhoundp 990 Posted May 8, 2014 It's r/r for Perry, Cradley have already come out and said that. Neale is replacing Williamson who is at Peterborough the same night Thanks for clearing that up, when i looked at The Cradley Fb page last night, it said Neale for Perry.

Ommer Mon 381 Posted May 9, 2014 Yep its R/R for Tom (extra rides for Steve, Cleggy, Greavesie and Danny I presume) and Michael Neale for Matt. Like GreyhoundP I think Michael Neale would have been a decent signing and I hope he has a good night. So, do we think the Bog Moggies are in with a shout of reducing Nigel Pearson's silver polish bill? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adz_mft 230 Posted May 9, 2014 With the new Mildenhall averages out I'm guessing we will go 1.Guest 2.Mountain 3.Bates 4.Coles 5.Halsey 6.Johnson 7.Kingston That's a cracking reserve pairing imo.Brendan has hit some nice form in the last 2 meetings and Jack has been flying recently.Should be an interesting meeting for sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyhoundp 990 Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) With the new Mildenhall averages out I'm guessing we will go 1.Guest 2.Mountain 3.Bates 4.Coles 5.Halsey 6.Johnson 7.Kingston That's a cracking reserve pairing imo.Brendan has hit some nice form in the last 2 meetings and Jack has been flying recently.Should be an interesting meeting for sure Im not sure why Cradley always seem to go with the first leg in these 2 leg affairs, personally i would like to get a team back on our patch, to make up any deficit. I have never seen Brendan ride any good at Monmore, but i guess theres always a first time, however having Jack at reserve really could swing it for you, especially if he is on Top form and takes 6/7 rides, It will be interesting who you choose to go with at No1, not knowing the averages, any of the Coventry Heat leaders, Lewis Rose, maybe Lambert or Morley, I would think any of them would do a job for you. It should be an interesting meeting, whilst i doubt Mildenhall will win, you should be able to keep the result to manageable proportions, and its probably in the away tie where we will miss TP most.

Bagpuss 10,842 Posted May 10, 2014 Stefan in for Jacobs, should satisfy the Cradley fans' need to have a good boo and hiss anyway, bless 'em. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ommer Mon 381 Posted May 10, 2014 I agree that Jack Kingston could be a trump card. He looked very lively in the U21s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greyhoundp 990 Posted May 11, 2014 looking at the weather forecast 80% chance of rain on tuesday, i hope it doesnt get rained off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Damo b 10 Posted May 12, 2014 Will Bates be riding at either this meeting or on Sunday? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ommer Mon 381 Posted May 13, 2014 Some rain predicted for lunch time but forecast to be dry tonight so hopefully not at risk. It should be a really good contest. I'm going for a Heathens win by 12 but with Tom and Matt missing I may be in for a disappointment. Good luck to all involved for a safe and entertaining evening.
