Ommer Mon 381 Posted October 19, 2014 Here's hoping that the rain stays away for this one. Should be a cracker. Does anyone know why Steve Worrall has missed the last two Edinburgh fixtures? With Stefan Nielsen hopefully returning to the Coventry Team I can't see a repeat of the 35 point KO Cup win. Come on you Heathens! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lucifer sam 3,960 Posted October 21, 2014 Cradley edge home 52-42.... should be an interesting second leg. What happened to Nathan Greaves? Why did he only take two rides. All the best Rob Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted October 21, 2014 Well done Coventry Storm in keeping it close, looking forward to the return leg next Wednesday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rainman 81 Posted October 21, 2014 Why did Greaves withdraw from the meeting? ankle injury i believe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted October 21, 2014 ankle injury i believe Did he really hurt his ankle (even though no crash) or was it so reserves could cover him as he was scoring poorly? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TividaleHeathen 11 Posted October 21, 2014 He had a second place in his first ride and retired in his second so doubt he would have been pulled out of the meeting unless he was injured. There was a someone limping around in the pits area but couldn't see clearly if it was Nathan from my position (Poor light and dodgy eyes I'm afraid!!)

greyhoundp 990 Posted October 22, 2014 Did he really hurt his ankle (even though no crash) or was it so reserves could cover him as he was scoring poorly? Oh dear, he had beaten Storm No1 in his first ride, was in 3rd when he pulled out of his second, do you really believe he wouldnt have scored more than his replacement ?.

MattJ81 51 Posted October 22, 2014 Did he really hurt his ankle (even though no crash) or was it so reserves could cover him as he was scoring poorly? He isn't riding tonight either, plus as TividaleHeathen points out he had a very good second place over Lambert in his first ride and pulled out of his second. In addition Matt Williamson wasn't fully fit so I doubt there would have been a desire to add too many reserve rides unless essential Was an enjoyable meeting, Clegg continues to impress and was able to step up when required against Tactical Rides and in Heat 15. Will 10 points be enough? Depends on fitness/guests available I guess but it should be a close affair in the second leg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TividaleHeathen 11 Posted October 22, 2014 Losing Worrall is a massive blow for us, can only imagine that we will bring in Halsey or Jacobs for the second leg if either are available!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
