Paulco 7,101 Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) Strange looking Tigers team? Danny Phillips at 1, RR at 3 and Luke Chessell at No 6. Missing three riders. What the hell is going on ? How can they expect folk to pay £16 to watch that ? The alarm bells were ringing when i checked my e-mails for the " red alert " newsletter , and there was none Just had a text , we have 3 guests and r/r , Rye House have 2 guests and r/r the sport is sadly dying on it's arse . This is a sad day for Premier League speedway when it gets reduced to this farce . Edited August 29, 2014 by Paulco 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DW 11 Posted August 29, 2014 Another one of these made up European championships. Looks like a home defeat against one of the worse teams in the league. Even Rye House's NL riders are more than likely going to out score our two looking at their respective averages. If Aarnio rides like he did last week 40 might be a good score Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tyretrax 2,257 Posted August 29, 2014 We have former Rye House promoter Ronnie Russell to thank for bringing foreign riders into the lower division. Now we can't field a team because they are away riding in some Mickey Mouse meeting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paulco 7,101 Posted August 30, 2014 I've now had my newsletter and Sunday's teams are Glasgow and guests 1 Danny Phillips (g) 2 Theo Pijper 3 R/R for Kevin Wolbert 4 Tero Aarnio 5 Rusty Harrison 6 Luke Chessell (g) 7 Aaron Fox (g) Rye House and guests 1 Eddie Kennett 2 Benji Compton (g) 3 Steve Boxall 4 Jason Garrity 5 R/R for Anders Mellgren 6 Oliver Greenwood 7 Alex Edberg (g) There we have it , a farce of a meeting , this really has reached farcical levels and has to stop . This should be a watershed moment , if foreign riders want to come here and ride , then they have to agree that the club they agree to ride for comes first . If they want to pursue personal glory in other competitions then they sign for a club that has a race night that these other considerations don't come into conflict with that club , or they just dont bother and indulge themselves on the continent every week . If that results in a watered down Premier League , then so be it . As fans we welcome 7 riders to our clubs at the start of every season , we want to watch them ride for our clubs every week ( barring injuries of course ) . What we dont want is what we have now , rider A cant be here as he's on long track duty , rider B cant be here he's riding in Poland , rider C has to ride in the Mongolian best pairs . Seriously what we have tomorrow is cheating the public . Rant over 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
