Rob B 1,265 Posted August 24, 2015 I wonder if Zagar and Doyle will be?? No meetings in Poland so no reason why they shouldn't be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ABS 231 Posted August 24, 2015 They will fly in from Berlin, I'm flying in from a Polish Airport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flagrag 705 Posted August 30, 2015 I presume Zagar is missing today as see that Chris Harris is now riding for Belle Vue instead of grass track. How's the weather up in Manchester today Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hyderd 1,216 Posted August 30, 2015 I presume Zagar is missing today as see that Chris Harris is now riding for Belle Vue instead of grass track. How's the weather up in Manchester today Matej was fit enough to carry on and win last nights GP, in my book he should be fit enough to honour his commitment to Belle Vue and their fans. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flagrag 705 Posted August 30, 2015 I wonder if he had any intention on riding today as its been arranged so quickly it's a shame as I'm sure that he would have got a good welcome after his Gorzow victory. That's good that the weather may hold out for this just trying to decide whether I want to do the M25-M1-M6 motorway battle would have come up on the train apart from stupid engineering works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tellboy 3,670 Posted August 30, 2015 Matej was fit enough to carry on and win last nights GP, in my book he should be fit enough to honour his commitment to Belle Vue and their fans. Agree totally.Although its normally the day after when the adrenalin isn't pumping that you feel the full affects. I'm just peed off because I was looking forward to seeing Harris at the poacher today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) It was obvious he was in some discomfort last night, you could see it when he was choosing his gates for the semi and final. As most of us know, after relatively minor bangs and falls it is usually the next day that you feel the full affects and Matej's crash was not minor. Harris should be ok as a guest. I'm more concerned about the loss of Steve Worrall and track specialist Garrity guesting for Auty. However, if Nicholls and Cook ride as they did on Monday we should be ok. The points difference at reserve could keep the scores close. Edited August 30, 2015 by Aces51 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
woodenspoon 157 Posted August 30, 2015 (edited) Matej was fit enough to carry on and win last nights GP, in my book he should be fit enough to honour his commitment to Belle Vue and their fans. Very harsh opinion that. I would think that Matej is feeling very second hand today, when all his aches and pains that will be far more noticeable the day after, added to the fact that he will not get much time for any treatment or physio prior to coming back to the UK. Does the rule re Guests not apply to your No1, as Chris only rode for us last Monday ? Not that I am complaining as he always tries and is entertaining around Belle Vue.

I imagine Zagar is feeling very secondhand this morning. It was a nasty crash. The 7 day rule doesn't count if guesting for a number 1. With Belle Vue's recent refuse to let riders guest, I hope both The Aces and Robins are willing to help Coventry out with guests for Kylmakorpi this week as Coventry have been very good with helping other teams out with guests this year, esp Swindon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arnieg 3,685 Posted August 30, 2015 . That's good that the weather may hold out for this just trying to decide whether I want to do the M25-M1-M6 motorway battle would have come up on the train apart from stupid engineering works I eventually settled for car to Banbury and train from there !

To an extent I agree that not lending riders to your nearest Play-Off competitors is right, it is still a bit of a joke with speedway that you can win matches with a team full of Guest ringers. I may have missed it, but I do not recollect anything officially in print from Belle Vue saying they will not loan riders. I would imagine with Coventry assured of a Play-Off place that BV would in this case not object, especially with you lending us Chris. Looks like BV will need a guest on Monday from a report on the official site re Zagar's injuries. Edited August 30, 2015 by woodenspoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lionheart 86 Posted August 30, 2015 I suppose that it will be R/R then, and the inevitable loss for BV. Never mind, it will give the long suffering Wolves supporters something to cheer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
