Elrc Coventry

[KIRKYLANE 537]

No disrespect to Kyle Newman who will always ride to the best of his ability but it really is a farce when a number 7 is riding in the ELRC.

 

There was a time when being no 1 in your averages did not guarantee you a spot in the BLRCF. 19 teams .. top 16 no 1's ride and the bottom three were reserves !!!!!

I certainly haven't been lwt down at all by my club riders in the last few years so bring it on Up The Stars!

It's not really a farce. That is the way speedway is now and the strength of speedway in the country is and it has been for a few years now.

 

Mind you saying that, going back over the years, how many top league rider No 7s could you name that could say they beat the World Champion and a rider currently ranked in the top ten both on their home track away from home.

 

I cannot think of many.

Holder still listed as riding and has currently not declared otherwise

So we think holder as pulled out.

 

I know of 1 other rider pulled out that's not announced yet.

 

Let's hope they don't replace these with the reserves who will be NL riders

[Trees 2,814]

They're letting the fans down, nobody else ....

Well who's that then?

 

To save people travelling who doesn't want to end up seeing a farce?

Holder is 'unavailable' replaced by Adam Ellis.

[Trees 2,814]

Not a surprise, well done Adam for giving a toss about the fans ....

[Woz01 3,589]

A least we will be watching riders who actually give a toss.

Really poor from the Poole riders when not one of their top 5 could be bothered to ride and represent their team in the meeting.

 

Just like the play offs, it's left to the reserves again whilst the others don't show up 😉

This meeting has gone from being better than a World Final to one of the most meaningless meetings of the year .

I'd like to know if Holder was ever gonna race in this meeting, would never be surprised if Matt couldn't give two hoots about encouraging his boys to race in this given it doesn't "benefit his business" .....

You won't get that anymore, you see World finals every fortnight with the gp series.

That surprises me, thought better of Cook if true.....
