I think Lambert will do well to to score any more than 2 or 3 against Mountain and Sedgman at reserve. Yes but if he scored 3 nobody can say they missed Jye. Lambert may outscore Blodorn too.

bruno 1,790 Posted October 12, 2022 Lambert's gating wasn't brilliant at nss , will find it harder to pass tomorrow 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I added Jye's scores at Sheffield as TTT said he didn't know how Jye went there. While i don't expect Lambert to score more than 2 or 3, but he may well do. Who knows.

Call me wolfie 677 Posted October 12, 2022 3 hours ago, SpeedwayTShirts said: Double points for the Aces top 3 would be 30 points plus 12 = 42 so the rest of the team only need to score 3 to be sure of an overall draw You’re a bit out with that logic, 51 from the first leg plus 33 is 84, 90 points required for a draw. If top 3 score 30, they need 9 from the other 3 to match the 39 Sheffield got at the NSS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way it is unlikely he will score less, the problem they have is that because Wright had his moment of madness instead of being 18 in front and almost home and hosed it is only 12 and the reserves will have to take 2 of his rides at Sheffield, Brennan could struggle too unless he has his gating boots on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Garry1603 353 Posted October 12, 2022 (edited) It's been lightly raining in South Manchester since about 4-00 today. Never thought I'd want a rain off (and the forecasts don't expect the rain to continue to be honest), but wouldn't it be better all around if the Aces could put out a full team in another week and let's see who wins with full(ish) teams?

For what it’s worth there’s no rain forecast for tomorrow in Sheffield. Some light rain this evening though but no more than that. I honestly don’t think you’ve much to worry about tomorrow night. Assuming Robert Lambert gets 15, which he should, you obviously only need 25 from the rest. 8 each from Zagar and Kurtz, plus 4 from Brennan is 20. Blodorn will pick up a few and Simon Lambert is an upgrade on Etheridge round Owlerton. I see it being close but those last few heat advantages on Monday night have probably edged it in your favour. Its a shame it’s not both of our usual teams lining up against each other but at this stage of the year we know that’s highly unlikely! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good and fair post, I'm as keen as any fellow Aces supporters to see them finally break the hoodoo and lift the silverware but equally I want to see decent evening's racing, hopefully in the balance until the closing heats, obviously a Belle Vue aggregate victory would be so good to see. I know there's a couple who think we've already lost and I can see where they are coming from, years of disappointment at the final knockings take their toll. Keep the faith people. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TINYS 292 Posted October 12, 2022 Sheffield finished higher in the league than Belle Vue so they deserve to win, play offs are just a money spinner. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I expect about 11-12 from his 5 rides. It's not as easy to pass on as the NSS. And 5 years is a long time. Edited October 12, 2022 by Bald Bloke 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
