TheScotsman

Very grippy again. But mainly a gaters paradise. We were gating well for the first 7 heats but then swapped gloves with ippo who promptly banged in 3 5-1s. Game over. Well done ippo. Must do better monarchs.

Some really horrible looking weather on the rain radar heading straight towards Ippo and looks like it might hit around 7pm - http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=radar;sess= Strange since none of the regular sites mention rain. Anyone else got any updates?

Or have a phone number for Neil.

U turn if you want to The Scotsman's not for turning. (Though it has started a little bit of drizzle in Braintree.)

More U Turns than our Blessed Mother Theresa!!

Only a hole in the can so far.

Not on the track I hope.

6.33 is decent for a second string who can win a few races and use his elbows.

Try talking to Mr.Vatcher about it.

He's well capable of that especially if the track is gate and go as usual.

This could be as good a meeting as you'll get at fox holes this season baldyman. Your capitano says Sedgy had 2 big crashes recently so needs to build his confidence up again. And that nice Mr. Louis has said they have made some tweaks to the track.

I never give in to blackmail and my first name's not Neil.

No chance. Have to be in to win.

Hot water bottle / thermos / double layers of everything more like!!

Probably going to be arctic again though.

Oh no baldyman.

Forecast seems to have perked up a bit for tomorrow so maybe Mr. Vatcher won't have to flip a coin as to which team gets the 3 or 4 points.

But after all the work done over the winter surely the drainage must be first class?

You don't expect all weegies to be able to spell do you?

Gone to hell in a handcart.

Well you let the Weegies have a point.

Settle for 2 points from the draw then.

Yay a point!! We are mince at last heat deciders at the moment.

Only 60? We must be improving!!

I'm easily upset!! But I am not at all confident about this one. Our form is a bit patchy at the moment so it all depends on which team and which version of our riders turn up. As I said in another thread - it would be nice if they could do something to the track and we could get some decent racing but I'm not confident about that either. Smiler has been patchy away from home - a bit like Mr. King - and is averaging under 8 away. Mark seems to have gone slightly off the boil since he started riding for Wolves too. Erik could score anything - he blazed the start of the season but some say he tinkers too much now looking for perfection. Josh might do ok once he has sussed out the track - depends on whether there is only the one 4 foot wide line. Ricky can score anything but I think is our top scorer away from home. Cleggy could be our key. If he gates like at Newcy he could well score BIG points, otherwise he'll have to try to battle past on the only line. Mitch needs to stay on the bike especially in his first ride! In theory should be good for a couple. Hopefully we will score in the 40's but whether it's the 0, 1, 2, or 3 point version is anybody's guess. Let's hope we have none of the shenanigans that happened at Scunny and Redcar in the past week.
