bigcatdiary 3,165 Posted September 8, 2015 Good team performance and the damage was done in the first few heats, very impressive showing from Grondal who hadn't seen the place before but everyone chipped in with good points and the result never looked in doubt. Crowd didn't look very good and Peterborough fans accounted for a third of them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
proud panther 1,505 Posted September 8, 2015 To be fair to the Rye House fans, the team they put out wasn't very appealing. Can understand a few of them giving it a miss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mudflaps 664 Posted September 8, 2015 just what we needed with the play offs looming - Grondal at reserve could be the making of us!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iand 133 Posted September 8, 2015 I said we'd lose, but not by that much. Season can't end soon enough. I hope lessons have been learned re make up of the team for next year, especially at the lower end Damage was done when Luke quit out of the blue and was replaced with Greenwood at the start of the season.

Shadders 4,135 Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) Damage was done when Luke quit out of the blue and was replaced with Greenwood at the start of the season. The kids a trier, but not PL class. You need at least one decent reserve if you're top heavy. No support at all for Kennett, Lambert & Jakobsen. They must be as frustrated as we are. I love watching Kasper ride, but his inability to gate is costing us valuable points, especially when the tracks dry and slick and passing is more difficult Edited September 8, 2015 by Shads Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love watching Kasper ride, but his inability to gate is costing us valuable points, especially when the tracks dry and slick and passing is more difficult Have to agree with you about Luke - have missed a lot of meetings this year and I found last night boring with the gate and go racing - probs won't go anymore this year I think Barker was upset with Kennett when he caught Ben's left leg coming out of the 4th bend !

cityrebel 2,960 Posted September 8, 2015 An NL rider and a bloke racing with a shoulder injury. Marvellousi gave rye a miss last night shads, and went to watch the raiders at kent instead. What a bunch of triers these boys are, they have been like a breath of fresh air at the launch pad this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DragonsDen 27 Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) One of those posts which says something but tells you nothing Can't repeat what you've been told unless you can prove it's actual fact - my source is not 100% reliable and tends to add a few sentences Edited September 8, 2015 by DragonsDen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crump99 4,476 Posted September 9, 2015 Can't repeat what you've been told unless you can prove it's actual fact - my source is not 100% reliable and tends to add a few sentences Of course you can. You just add that proviso or similar to careful wording. Best not to dangle the carrot at all really from unreliable sources. Depends on your agenda (not you personally, just generally speaking) in the first place - jeez, that's a bit heavy for a Weds afternoon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alan_Jones 1,005 Posted September 9, 2015 If what I've been told is true then I understand why he quit! If it was that he accepted his normal deal with Len & then found later that (some of) his team mates were on all sorts of new management sanctioned extras then I think that's pretty close to the truth.

Odds On 373 Posted September 10, 2015 Damage was done when Luke quit out of the blue and was replaced with Greenwood at the start of the season. The team was poor, very poor before the season even started, Luke quitting was a very small factor in the grand scheme of things! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
