Is Kenneth Hansen injured and will he feature in the match? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Django 159 Posted March 30, 2015 Hansen should be riding, he would have rode on Saturday had it not been called off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diamond@heart 399 Posted March 31, 2015 If we gate better than we did up at Berwick we may just hold our own, if not then we are screwed. I think over two legs Worky will be too strong for us but looking forward to both matches. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dantodan 314 Posted April 1, 2015 I am happy for our riders to be part of Elite League teams but how often are they injured and miss our fixtures. I know the boot can be on the other foot and he could have taken the knock riding for us. Its an occupational hazard but hard to bear for the riders other team. Enjoy your enforced absence Lewi I hope you don't suffer any lasting problems. R/R will give our riders another 8 heats of practise between them before our League Cup campaign starts.

Hes a KL rider who we borrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dantodan 314 Posted April 1, 2015 hes not 'our rider' though,.. Hes a KL rider who we borrow Yeah agreed Arson but the result is the same. After Sundays postponement I am looking forward to us getting off the starting blocks even though the Comets are stronger than the Bandits so it will be an even tougher opener The Diamonds need at least one rider notching up heat wins in every match. Maybe Steve can do it? He had 2 wins at Berwick..If I were a gambler I would put my shirt on Lewis Rose coming good but I feel that it will be a few weeks into our fixtures when he settles into the groove. Even though I think we have one of the weakest teams in the PL I am looking forward to the lads proving me wrong. if we struggle we will see some last heat deciders and they are always exciting matches although I would be happier with 60 points at home every week!!!!
