He's 1 rider who has imo been great to watch when he's on song & well worth the money to watch but his other antics off track let down big time Edited April 5, 2022 by Justgotmecpc 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In all my years of following the sport I can’t recall the home team heat leaders not gaining a single heat win between them. Don’t care who the opposition were, bottoms need to be kicked. A bit harsh after the first meeting with the top three making their home debuts against a strong side. Agree about Barker, he's not dirty. Skidder has held some kind of weird grudge for some time, probably since the Ward/Morris/Barker/young lady thing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Be interesting if Kennett returns quickly. He started last season very badly but got back in the swing eventually. Hans and MPT probably need to give Bjarne a call about bike set up there. Poole will be top 3 as I predicted but still think Glasgow and Leicester are considerably stronger all round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think the Plymouth fans were happier to see Andersen team riding Atkins home in ht4 and keeping King behind ,than clear off into the distance and King pick the youngster off . Good performance from the Peterborough number 8 Dan Gilkes doesn't look like he will let the Panthers down if he gets his chance .

Totally agree, a paid win is just as good as a heat win, or better still, as it means you've gained a 5-1! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Downside is he won’t be at reserve for long riding like that. Good entertaining meeting due to close score. Stream was excellent. Well done to all. Well as cup matches don't count for averages, Gilkes could still be at reserve for May! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ghosty 500 Posted April 6, 2022 Last nights result was what I expected, all the Gladiators will improve with the exception of Gilks who was outstanding. I think Ben Barker was unlucky to be excluded in his tussle with Richard Lawson from my view Ben was in front when Lawson went down! Predictable refereeing decision based on reputation rather than the facts. Also the Referee's very odd decision to order track watering after heat 13? what was that based on or influenced by whom!

Well something upset Lawson, enough to see what happens this evening - if the weather allows? As for the other comment, no grudge from me as I'm not an Aussie!!

Barker was out of control causing Lawson to fall. An easy and correct decision. What was far more surprising was allowing Atkins back when it was obvious to all he got into difficulties and fell on his own. Luckily there was no advantage gained in the rerun. As for the track watering, Middlo was far from happy and said it made the track dangerous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
