  1. It seems to me that Greg might be the fan - fighting like Dingle!!
  2. bit of a bizzarre comment unless it is a pure wind up. Only the 4th year for each Rohan has gone 6+ 7+ 8+. Not many new riders have done that.Currently about 7.5. Cam 4.5 6.5 and yes slipped to 5.5 last year. However his first wrist injury was one that much worse that most know. Hence the care he is taking this year with the new injury. Hope that the Witches can get into gear and at least run close.Would be delighted with a point. A good Witches start could put big pressure on the Tigers . How r/r goes for both sides coukd be the key.
  3. double edged sword this one. Can see what you say in that that loyalty could mean that there is less urgency of course it also means (hopefully) that the club is more stable than most and therefore not at risk as those that attract only a few hundred are.
  4. Witches pretty ordinary at home again tonight. Are we gonna see an away day backlash ala Peterborough?? Perhaps if Bach and Wells have a day out at the seaside and decide they cant get back in time we might nick a point otherwise a 20+ Comets win is on the cards.
  5. Oh dear another one thrown away!! Where did it go wrong??? Look at the last places. Every Witches rider ran a last. The home team and we run 9 (NINE) last places. Rebels 6 last places 3 of which were Chessell which was expected. Not good enough. Im not going to comment on individual performances.
  6. Not being on facebook or twitter means i have only viewed the incident this morning when the youtube links were posted. Re the exclusion - from the head on angle i can see why some have called it 50/50. From the angle from.the other side of the track 100% Nickis fault IMO. However it is far from the worst move he has pulled and i wouldnt think it was deliberate. Also agree Greg may possibly have been able to avoid a crash. Still unfair/dangerous though. Re the 'fight' - Greg totally out of order and lucky to get away with just a fine. The arguement of provocation is a poor one even if you see this incident as 'the last straw'. Perhaps an ugly incident all round but one that in the end could actually have a positive given the interest it has raised particularly from outside traditional speedway fans.
  7. well one or two scores have seemed a bit fishy so you could be right!! Will go with Witches to grab a point.
  8. Will be interesting to see if Hansen continues to struggle or suddenly finds some form now the LC is out of the way and his nice new average has enabled the team switch
  9. Id say if he can beat Chessell he will have done his job. Important that Ritchie also gets the better of Starke.
  10. just checked on the club website and its Dan Halsey Also Rebels have Luke Chessell in for Compton
  11. Dont see much more than a 10 point win and really hope its no closer than that!! It may depend on whether Kurtz finally finds a fast way round Foxhall. Every time I say he is too good to keep being so poor. Sooner or later he will prove me right! (unfortunately) Reserves may be the key if we are to win more comfortably.
  12. What a strange few days!! Newcastle at Ipswich Ipswich at Peterborough Peterborough at Newcastle Throw in the Scottish derby reversals as well. That wouldve been some accumulator to go for!
  13. Excellent win for the Monarchs. As Arson said - the ability to show the backbone to hit back after a poor result is the sign of a good side. Tigers need to show the same next time out....
  14. Isn't the fee dependant on ability?? Is Mr Havelock partial to a pie and a Bovril??
  15. if it is about assessed riders beind awarded a true average from less than 4 home 4away if a team redclares then its not about someone putting a spanner in the works with an old ruling. It there and should be used. Presumably this means that Glasgow want a new 7 pointer and with Kozza under that the new declaration needs to stay under 42.5 which it would with Sarjeant on 3 but not if his revised figure is used.
  16. no - I dont know his league experience and therefore what category he falls into for average assessment. Depending on the answer though you know the next comment!! wink ie on a 7 he and Roynon dont fit for Allen and Greenwood.
  17. such eloquent debate! The point was clear and concise. When Lambert missed meetings with illness it was suggested it may even have been a management ploy to keep Allen at 1. Lots of hehe we've out witted the rules etc When a situation works against you its a disgrace and some are even calling for him to be sacked!! Nothing numbskull about it - just reasoned logic. Try it sometime.
  18. Ive not heard of Grondal - whats his pedigree?? What average would he come in on??
  19. Looks better than Cov v Poole - surely Holder should be raring to go?? wink
  20. Now some of you may have noticed that there have been a few times when I have got my knickers in a twist on Boro threads about a few things! MPT , redeclarations and of course riders like Lambert potentially having their average updated despite not having ridden 4home 4away. How ironic that many of those posters that have sneered at my comments and chuckled about Lambert missing away meetings and so not getting a new average which has enabled Allen to stay at 1 and so retain the guest facilty are now up in arms! Of course this time youve lost out rather than gained so suddenly its not quite as funny!!
