dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted April 23, 2017 Shouldve had the rules so that tied on aggregate goes to golden heats. Every year the cup finals end up at the arse end of October due to early round delays (rain offs and ties and not agreeing new dates) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

diamonds54 5 Posted April 23, 2017 A good battling performance from Newcastle but once again heavilly outscored at reserve thereby putting extra pressure on the top 5, to those who are having a go at Danny Phillips can I ask who you would replace him with without radically restructuring the team bearing in mind that it would have to be a like for like replacement.

That's the point I was making, he probably can't be replaced which means we are stuck unless Coles improves significantly as the weeks progress. This was predictable though, the evidence was there from last season that this would be a real problem. I can only assume they thought Coles would be better than he has been so far. Certainly not writting him off but he is almost the key rider now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Certainly not writting him off but he is almost the key rider now. in defence of conner coles. in heat 2 he was a bit behind, BUT got better as the meeting went on . we have got to give these kids a chance , conner looks a good prospect for the future . also been impressed with rob shuttleworth , never ran a last , 4 paid 6 from this kid . well done shutty . also good to see the real lambert finally turn up at workington . well done to our k10 rider from glasgow , knocking in the points . well done the king of flubber ! isnt craig cook the best rider you will ever see @ your track this season ?

alkadera 100 Posted April 23, 2017 (edited) Echoing what jenga said, Connor coles certainly improved in each outing and Danny Philips was always in the mix and attacked the track even if it did result in a few mistakes. On another note, I was very impressed with Craig cook too. Never really been a fan of his before but his team ethic and attitude was impressive - great team riding with Mason campton, out on track giving advice and he was rapid too. Made me change my mind a little about him! Edited April 23, 2017 by alkadera 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Halifaxtiger 5,318 Posted April 25, 2017 The rider the Comets need going is Proctor. I thought he'd make mincemeat of that 6 point average of his but he wasn't impressive on Saturday and it looks as though he was worse on Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought he'd make mincemeat of that 6 point average of his but he wasn't impressive on Saturday and it looks as though he was worse on Sunday. Never rated Proctor actually, and always flatters to deceive. His form was very poor prior to his original Visa problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
