Just can’t get excited for it. you know what. All these years I’ve been after some 60-30 wins. (We never get) and now we have them I want a good old 46-44 I’ve come to the conclusion that I’m just an old grumpy man that’s never happy It will be a great meeting now you are expecting the worst.. And Bomber by himself is always worth a few stand out moments. . And it's obviously one of the few occasions anyone will get to see him ride anywhere in the UK this season... I won £60 on Drabiik scoring over seven yesterday so contemplated giving it to the Aces... But. On reflection Getting a take away (on a Monday) instead... Enjoy your evening... Happiness is 46-44.... Edit. Just noticed that Woves v Stars is the TV meeting.. Where's that 192 Bus timetable,... Edited July 25, 2022 by mikebv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob B 1,257 Posted July 25, 2022 Unlike last time when at least Kings Lynn were gating and being passed, tonight Aces fast from the gate apart from Blordorn passing Basso in heat 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TTT 1,229 Posted July 25, 2022 Rob Lyon has had enough. Doesn't even bother to replace Mulford in Ht 14. Disgraceful season from top to bottom and the towel has finally been chucked in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Col 854 Posted July 25, 2022 One sided processional first 4 heats, only pass being Blodorn sneaking inside Basso on the exit of turn 4 lap 1. Heat 5 Panthers made the gate but Wright blasted around the outside of both, however Kurtz unable.to make any impression. Basso picked himself up from a coming together with Sedgeman in the first attempt to run heat 6 to pass Zagar for the win, wasn't watching him as my eyes were on Brennan rounding Sedgeman at the same time. Heat 7 saw Fricke win by a country mile while Etheridge & Nicholls had a decent battle for a point. Brave second bend on outside of Harris from Brennan saw him join Blodorn for the lead in heat 8 but the German rode to tight in bend 3 allowing both Brit's around the outside. Tac Sub Harris won heat 9, Basso took a spill while last after a clever cutback by Wright relegated him but the young Dane did very well to clear the track. Tremendous heat 10, Nicholls made gate but both Aces on his tail & quicker but initially trying to ride the same inch of shale, eventually (lap 3 bend 4) Nicholls despite his best efforts was unable to resist as Brennan & Zagar hit the front. Fricke won heat 11 comfortably, initially joined for the lead by Etheridge who soon found himself the meat in a Panthers sandwich entering turn 3 as Harris outside & Basso inside made their way past. Blodorn's use of the turns 3&4 inside paid dividends again as he joined Kurtz for a 5-1 in heat 12. Traditional Harris EF at tapes meant Aces were untroubled in heat 13. No reserve replacements in heat 14 were a surprise, Basso & Blodorn deserved an extra ride. Wright rounded Nicholls'on bend 4 first lap for another comfortable home 5-1. Another comfortable heat 15 5-1 after Harris made a decent gate. Aces win big without needing to get out of second gear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
