I'm hoping for D.T to make his debut and get Zach Cook in for James Wright and we might be able to make a fist of it ?

Jonnybegood 258 Posted June 5, 2023 Is the score going to be 46-44 as the poster says, if so I will put a bet on . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you will find DT is out with concussion sustained at Peterbough on Monday last week. He's not riding for either of Leicester's teams this week.

Biffa 84 Posted June 5, 2023 Read somewhere he has a 12 day rest due to his age. Apparently the older you are the less time you need off. Strange I know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GiveusaB 1,145 Posted June 9, 2023 Advice to manager...put R/R at No.2....Zach Cook can then ride in Heat 8....put Joe Thompson in Heat 1, give him a few laps before Heat 2 ... Bowtell in Heat 5 and a T/S in Heat 11 ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bowtell in Heat 5 and a T/S in Heat 11 ! No tac sub rides allowed in two legged matches. Team declared 5 days prior to the meeting snd then the riding order can’t be changed. Yet another tactical blunder from you know who 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronScorpion 1,407 Posted June 9, 2023 I am glad to notice that all of our riders that have had the extra meetings this week are fit & have found a bit more form from bike or set up issues so looks good for tonight but we can not be complacent & just get on with the job in hand. 2 points in front from 1st leg so we just need to keep adding to it, stay safe & get through the meeting still in front where we would meet Redcar in the semi-final. Birmingham, though, will be on a mission & a point to prove. Weather fine so track & the racing should be spot on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
