Witches V Monarchs Kocup Final 1st Leg Thurs 16th Oct

[Nutz 132]

Well I'm heading across for this one so I don't want it to be a wasted journey...

[Gavan 5,050]

Fingers crossed this goes ahead im coming up tonight. Can see us nicking this by 10

[Nutz 132]

Think we'd be silently happy if we can keep the gap to single figures...

[Chris Hutcheson 32]

Agreed Nuts, anything under 10 is manageable. I'd love a win after being robbed in the league though!

Weather is fine here at the moment, quite warm too, but let that fool ya, Foxhall always has its own climate!

I see the monarchs have the second leg of the play off finals aswell, shame we couldn't have this one.

We all know who's Edinburghs manager and chair of the BSPA

 

Best of luck Witches

Steve Worrall is apparently missing tonight, so Monarchs will be using rider replacement.

Well that's a helluva blow.

 

Max & Justin taking rides for him is fine but the reserves..............??

Need some of Deek's Foxhall form from last year.

[Blacksmith 53]

Confirmed on official Monarchs site, Steve is missing as his partner has gone into labour.

Rider replacement has been requested, and granted.

[TheScotsman 2,483]

Let's hope all goes well for Stevie and his partner.

 

(And that he'll be back raring to go next week!!)

Hopefully the baby is as quick out the start as Stevie is, and he might be back for tomorrow!!!

[TheScotsman 2,483]

He'll be even more knackered than when he does 8 meetings in a row!!

Lovely weather ( for October ) will hopefully bring out a good crowd tonight. Just hope we've got a decent Ref who the riders respect, then we wont have too much messing around at the start.

[Super Blue 616]

The problem with Foxhall is that even with a decent crowd the place still looks empty, I find the only guide line is how far you have to go back in the car park.

 

As far as a decent ref is concerned I agree wholeheartedly.

 

Both teams have there renowned rollers at no1 so will be interesting to see who gets the first official warning of the night.

 

So here's hoping for a good competitive meeting on a well prepared track with everyone staying safe and a reasonable little lead for the Witches to stand a chance tomorrow!

We needed the reserves to score some points away from home. with Steve missing we need them to step up big time tonight if we want to go through
