He may well do but if he misses key away meetings because he is riding for Redcar it's a bit pointless.

Bjerre is in the right environment for him to flourish, it was Lynn back in 2011 when he was sublime but I don't think it would suit him now. Everything is suiting him right now, fair at to him and Belle Vue for the signing.

That's a very fair point which I overlooked. Wider fact is though that Perks is one of, if not the best number seven around and they can't replace his scoring with guests.

That's a much closer meeting if Perks rides to be fair.

It's amazing how many people feel the need to make their minds up definitively without knowing anywhere near the full facts.

Not really in anyone's interests for Newcastle to turn up without two of the league's top stars. More rank fixture planning.

Delighted to be proved wrong. Have said all along that the team was built around Holder and the senior reserve scoring well and that is starting to bear fruit. Would have been nice to take all four points but three will do very nicely. There is lots more to come from this team and one we get a scoring number seven the sky could be the limit.

To be fair you weren't alone.

Oh dear.

Surely he means the meetings v Rye at Lynn

Wolves look like the team to beat, but one wonders if they are peaking too early like we did in 2014.

Struggling to see why he was signed really, was never likely to be a success. Ayres is a good signing.

Obviously thats where he learned it.

Even though it can only ever be three points 'gained' from a TR I always think a bit of scoreboard pressure from an 8-1 must have an effect.

We tend to get stuffed at Swindon and I don't see Thursday being any different.

CL group qualification is a great idea for winning the Europa League. United would probably be well in with a shout of top four without Thursday night football but we'll never know. They'll be title challengers next season.

Christ you're keen

Odd to not use Wells in the decider when he had just got a 5-1 with Masters in heat 13.

I think they need a new signing at number five too.

Nothing wrong with criticism, we are entitled to dish that out as paying customers, but abuse is another matter entirely.

It depends what was said, of course every sportsman should be able to rise above it and I'm sure he will learn to in years to come but everyone has their breaking point as Zidane showed in the 2006 world cup final. Personally though I think you are a poor excuse for a human being if you pay to get into a sporting event in order to abuse one of the competitors.

If you are going to give Clegg a chance to pull his finger out at reserve it needs to be a bit longer than one meeting.

I believe it's two riders who are or have been eligible for the NL.

It's been mentioned that Freddie and Doyle ride over here and look sharp, which you would expect early in the season. Will be interesting later on to see if their busy schedules affect them and if they start to suffer from fatigue, as this is one of the reasons why riders opt out of the UK.
