Wouldn’t read too much into those 2 points. As normally scores more than that higher average than the likes of flint, hook, Edwards, Bailey. Bang on they won’t get a much better chance missing the top 2 and new riders first meeting over here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember Nicki P demolishing the fence, Henning bager came round for a wave after running lasts, Peter juul was awful and Leon madsen took one look and refused to sign for Glasgow. I think jesper Olsen might've been decent. Nki certainly did back in the day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paulco 7,079 Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) Despite their recent home struggles , and having a patched septet tonight , you just know the Monarchs are going to be up for this tonight more than any other league match . So we'll have to get the best out of our 7 , no silly exclusions , if we are to prevail . We should have an excellent chance of winning, but I've been to Armadale too many times thinking that , only to be disappointed . Should be a cracker though Edited June 9, 2023 by Paulco 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a history of having a bad back and sometimes have problems with it and i'm not a speedway rider who has sustained several accidents over the years so i can fully understand why he wouldn't want to risk riding with it. I don't believe as some others seem to do in that Cookie has lost his enthusiasm because his average is over well over 9 points atm and he really seemed like he was 'dialled in' this season. I'm sure he will be back soon but i wouldn't advise coming back too early from a bad back because those problems, left unchecked or aggravated, can really manifest themselves in later life.

Means for this race, it's new guy Borke and Thomson at 3 & 4 respectively, as well as guest Kerr & rookie Wood for 3 heats for the Monarchs.... Got a feeling Fredriksen will be a busy man tonight! For the tigers, Brennan and Vissing at 3 & 4 look a decent pairing + interesting to see how Nowak goes with Harris. Ht 13 is always interesting, but even more so with Harris and Basso... I will be tuned into the updates later and hoping for a 44-46 to the tigers! Edited June 9, 2023 by cheggie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noelinho 922 Posted June 9, 2023 With all the changes, I decided to make the trip. Might regret it later. Hopefully we see more passes than crashes, but I wouldn't put money on it. Poor home home doesn't seem to have put the crowd off tonight. Which reminds me, all's gone quiet on the track front. I wonder what next year is looking like at the moment for the Monarchs? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
