Diamonds85 702 Posted March 16, 2022 Wonder if that is the answer to the riding order then? Or if that's just the riding order for this meeting. Matty at 2 is interesting. Looking forward to the first meeting back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

szkocjasid 3,046 Posted March 21, 2022 With 2 opposition reserves weaker than any other Championship reserve, Diamonds will hope Congreve can score well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Justgotmecpc 1,059 Posted April 2, 2022 (edited) Be giving it a miss unfortunately due to my daughter's wedding later today & it'll be a case of looking after our amazing granddaughter on Sunday as she's still a bit young yet for the speedway so I'll be watching the updates as well as watching Newcastle hopefully getting a result against spurs on the TV Edited April 2, 2022 by Justgotmecpc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diamonds85 702 Posted April 3, 2022 Although I believe the Diamonds will lose this meeting, I am greatly looking forward to getting back to the speedway It's all a bit of fun tonight for some valuable track time for the lads, really hope the new riders can get to grips with the track this season. Fingers crossed. Does anyone have any information on any extra races that will be on tonight beyond the 15 heats against the Stoke side, thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highside 118 Posted April 3, 2022 We're Newcastle riding better than the select team or was it a typical challenge match to keep scores close ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Max, Matty, James and Paul were all very solid, great rides from the four of them, impressed and they should be good for the season (at home anyway) Lee, he's been out of the saddle for about a decade but tbh didn't look too bad tonight, once the rust wears off and he sorts out whatever mechanical problems he seemed to be having tonight, he won't be a bad reserve, looked quite spectacular too on occasions, but I don't think the outside line has worked at Brough for many years now... George, has a long way to come to be any decent, however he showed slight improvement in his third and fourth ride compared to his first two (looked a little slower, but less wild), don't think he's going to be the big hitting reserve I dreamt he would be, but give him a couple months, he should be there or there abouts an ok number 7 at home, not too concerned Bradley, the less said the better about tonight, didn't look like he was comfortable for a single second and appeared to give up when left miles behind, he could only just about keep Connor Coles behind him at one point. Yes, it's his first season back after a couple off, and he's bound to be rusty too, I never expected him to be a good out and out number 1, but he better be improving on the performance he showed tonight, or else it's going to be pretty embarrassing for him this season. Again, we have a team with absolutely zero top end strength and you could feel the atmosphere in the stadium was duller than ever tonight, I heard a few people complaining as they were leaving the stadium that they wouldn't be back next week, and the crowd was already tiny this week, Christ knows what's it's going to be later on in the year... I don't want to know Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
