Teromaafan Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 10 hours ago, ouch said: One Aces fan retaliated to a sarcastic comment about the NSS track and mentioned it is one of the best tracks in the world. A common held belief in speedway circles. The Ipswich trolls descended . Sigh. Yeah, got that, not sure what your summary offers in response, but move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cook is over the hill at this level and if he decides one evening he doesn’t fancy it, you can quite comfortably write a row of duck eggs in the programme 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teromaafan Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Dan Gilkes was taken to hospital in an ambulance tonight, fingers crossed for him. I’ve been impressed with his efforts in Lions colours so far. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyler42 Posted Wednesday at 11:03 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 11:03 PM If Gilkes is out for a while (hopefully not) Who would they bring in to cover for him? There doesn't seem to be a lot of options out there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t sound good does it. Hopefully nothing broken and just a bit battered and bruised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Dan will be back on a bike soon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Lion Posted Friday at 06:07 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 06:07 PM I don’t think they can re-introduce Sam Hagon nor would I want them to . Nathan Ablitt put up a decent fight last week . I know he scored 0 from 3 rides but then won his last 2 rides in convincing fashion. I would accept & be willing to allow Vinnie Foord time to adapt to the level. If we go for Joe T then he has been here & knows the level so I would not give him long to settle . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ablitt too risky imo without a Championship team. Maybe a year too early for Vinnie, he's still at reserve in the Champ. Joe T has started the season well for Plymouth. Surely you need someone to hit the ground running now and Joe is the most likely to do that imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume bringing a rider back after dropping him would be allowed "at management committee discretion" I would accept & be willing to allow Vinnie Foord time to adapt to the level. Leicester got rid of Joe T when he struggled last year, then got rid of Sam Hagon when he struggled this year. Why would Vinnie Foord be treated differently? If we go for Joe T then he has been here & knows the level so I would not give him long to settle. Joe T is a stronger rider now than he was when previously in the Prem, so should be on a par with Gilkes. Not sure why you'd give Vinnie more time than Joe T? Joe has the best chance of scoring points as the season progresses. Edited 22 hours ago by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
