acclennell 141 Posted May 27, 2016 Decent result but so frustrating when with a full team I have no doubt 4 points would have been coming our way and not just 1. Missing 2 riders on Monday and 4 riders on Thursday by all accounts - not good and could end up costing us on all fronts which is a shame - full team out we are a match for everyone but on how many occasions is this going to happen. Well done to Victor on a fantastic performance. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well done to Victor on a fantastic performance. Agreed. But if we want to watch Robert Lambert every week that's the price we'll have to pay. Been worth it so far I have to say. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,484 Posted May 27, 2016 Not just Lambert you miss out on though. That's the problem with using so many riders with EL priority. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True but it's just so frustrating and the problem is also it's not just one rider but 3 and sometimes more with overseas committments for LL and MK. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andys 224 Posted May 27, 2016 Whatever the rights or wrongs it's becoming increasingly frustrating, knowing we have a team, when altogether, are capable of winning wherever they ride 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pogo1 288 Posted May 27, 2016 If and when Newcastle reach the play offs the EL will have finished so won't be a problem having to use guests 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheScotsman 2,484 Posted May 27, 2016 Is it Chance or Community Chest where you get the Get Out of Jail Free cards? I think we raided the box tonight!! Unlucky Diamonds. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acclennell 141 Posted May 27, 2016 If and when Newcastle reach the play offs the EL will have finished so won't be a problem having to use guests Thing is there are other comps also which we could lose out with - by all accounts we will require 4 riders for Boro away in the league cup which is a must win. What's the way round it don't select riders who are contrcted to EL clubs but as NJC said do you really want then to miss out on seeing RL and SW most weeks. Tough one and I know it's not just Newcastle but we are badly affected as we have 3 riders doubling up. Grumpy tonight after missing out on 4 points Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Endeavour 683 Posted May 27, 2016 End of last season Victor was one I would have liked Monarchs take a chance on with a relatively low average for 2016. Fortunate that Stevie wasn't riding tonight as Newcastle deservedly would have won. Strong unit when all seven are available. Would fancy them against any team home and away. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Blobby 2,678 Posted May 27, 2016 Well we certainly got out of jail big time tonight. Thank god Worrall wasn't there or the diamonds were leaving with 4 points. But well done to the boys on pulling through and getting the victory. Special mention to young Dan though great heat win in heat 4. Anyway onto next week for the the Fish testimonial hopefully he gets a great turnout. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
