Dave Stummings 126 Posted May 21, 2014 Sunday racing this week and Plymouth return in search of league points. Earlier in the season Plymouth won without to much difficulty at the Hoddesdon raceway. I have to say optimism is coming back with the Rye team and Stummo predicts a easy Rye House win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,135 Posted May 21, 2014 (edited) It'll be totally different this time. Katajisto isn't at reserve and Simota found some form from somewhere that day. We had a poor guest for Garrity in Manzares and Stevie Boxall was still suffering after his fall at Peterborough, blanking in his last three races. It'll be l totally different this time. I'll be surprised if we don't win by 10 points or more. Edited May 21, 2014 by Shadders 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westhamboy66 599 Posted May 23, 2014 (edited) Similar margin win or better compared to Sheffield last week. Stefan starting well for us is so important not just for Sunday but the rest of the season too Edited May 23, 2014 by westhamboy66 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave Stummings 126 Posted May 23, 2014 Similar margin win or better compared to Sheffield last week.

westhamboy66 599 Posted May 24, 2014 See Stefan average is 4.70, let's hope he's not to nervous Watched a lot of Stefan at Mildenhall and thought he was on par or better than Lewis Blackbird and look how well he is doing. Very positive move. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,135 Posted May 24, 2014 It's been very wet in Hoddesdon overnight and this morning, with more rain forecast this evening. The tracks gonna be like mush. Tomorrow looks promising though. Hopefully the track would've dried out by the afternoon. Watched a lot of Stefan at Mildenhall and thought he was on par or better than Lewis Blackbird and look how well he is doing. Very positive move.Not seen a lot of Stefan, but to me he has stacks of improvement in him. Look forward to seeing him progress Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shadders 4,135 Posted May 25, 2014 Just been down to the stadium. Lots of standing water in the car park, more lakes than puddles. Had a peek over the fence. Track looks wet, but will have plenty of time to dry out in the breeze. Currently clear blue sky and the forecast is for more of the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll settle for a point from the Devils ................... if the meeting goes ahead? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No further rain forecast today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Falcon Hammer 576 Posted May 25, 2014 Poor Stefan, didn't get past T1 and withdrawn with concussion - Get well soon. Going to be tough to get all 3pts now 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
westhamboy66 599 Posted May 25, 2014 Yes unlucky start for Stefan and the Rockets but we had the rub of the green for the rest of the match. Stayed for the six second half races so a total of three and a half hours. Typical sunday afternoon meeting not helped by poor refereeing no attempt to speed the meeting up even when taking into consideration the delays after the falls for Stefan and Adam. Sick of races being called back as unsatisfactory then only to see no two minute warning put on and the riders returning to the pits. Shame because it spoilt some good racing. Great performance from Ben Barker, did all he could and i think the Devils can consider themselves unlucky not to take a point home 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Odds On 373 Posted May 25, 2014 And to think some Rockets fans wanted Len to sign Roynon! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WembleyLion 413 Posted May 25, 2014 (edited) I agree with the above - no real urgency to get on with the meeting today. Much of the fault lies with the referee who could easily speed matters up if he could be bothered. Nonetheless I enjoyed a nice afternoon out watching Speedway.
