FishersGate 522 Posted September 17, 2022 For anyone wondering why Zack cook struggled in heat 8 his chain fell off. Just heard in the pits He really tried hard as well to find the right line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) Forgot this was on. Looks like we are having a bit of a kicking. Oh well can’t win them all. Looking like a 52-38 type meeting unless we can rally. We have thrown some silly points away. Edited September 17, 2022 by Steve Shovlar 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted September 17, 2022 And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why Leicester would never pick us in the playoff semi finals. Great rally and we should have won it. Heat 13 and on a 5-1 when Morris fell. Howarth gated in rerun. Zack falling on a 4-2 and in heat two Ablitt falling when leading. Silly errors which cost us the win but Leicester now have to come to Poole and win or draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kopite92 25 Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) A decent meeting as a neutral, but not enough of a lead for the Lions. On a side note, some of the behaviour of the Poole fans were disgraceful. One in particular shouted, with children around “Get your bike off the track you f*cking idiot” whilst Nick Morris lay on the track. On three occasions, they also went into the safety zone, including once when the bikes were on track. Apart from that, there was some good racing. Roll on Edinburgh next week in the play offs.

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted September 17, 2022 Pirates are riding far better than when Leicester came to us and won. And it looks after tonight we are heading to Glasgow in the playoffs, as I said a few weeks ago. Would Leicester risk chosing us in the semi finals? Hope Nick Morris is OK.
