Cue Ball Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Wait for it… The end is nigh. We’re doomed. Sack everybody and replace them with somebody else who I won’t name because I can’t think of anybody is any better, but that’s not the point… Fair play to Leicester, deserved winners on the night and could have been a bigger margin if not for mechanical gremlins. We just started off too slowly and never really looked like winning. When was the last time we were 12 points down at home? And thank you to BSN for wishing my dad a happy birthday at the end 👍 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manifesto Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 The only positive I can take from that is that the ice cream was nice and it was only the cup.. or is that clutching at straws? Jack Holder and Sedgmen apart the rest were woeful. Big improvements needed, every time has a dip this seems to be ours. Pickering couldn’t gate what so ever, Rowe wasn’t much better. Kerr as per round Owlerton struggling for speed. Leicester riders attacked the track and looked comfy. Howarth as expected rode well, Fricke looked very good was a great ride to beat Holder in heat 15 he held his line well and deserved the win. Good luck in the final 🦁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Don't think it's a case of Sheffield being poor on the night, I just think Leicester are a very good side and R/R is making them even stronger. Howarth and Kemp have upped their game this year and Douglas is getting better, Masters returning to his old rock solid Wolves form backing up a proper No.1 in Fricke who's dialled in on every British track now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

False dawn Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 13 hours ago, 40-38 said: BSN having a howler with the graphics tonight. It's entertaining. If that's the only thing we can criticise, I think we're lucky. Given their resources, I think BSN put on a good show. At least they try to focus the camera on where the real race is happening, unlike TNT. This is the first year that I've subscribed, but it won't be the last. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I agree BSN do an excellent job, in general commentary and the interviews are good, even Adam Roynon is bearable at times! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to be ruthless, there are riders out there, etc etc etc... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavan Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 Chris Holder is the issue at the moment he isn’t riding like a second heat leader I would say Jack and Rowe are doing their jobs and a lesser degree Pickering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Found himself at a clown show club in Poland where he doesn't get regular meetings and everyone is arguing with each other off the track. Doesn't race in Sweden either.

I think Pedersen might have binned it himself walking off, rules state he didn’t even get paid that solitary point he had in the last match when he walked out. On the media news they are saying he might not return although Rybnik are that bad they still need him 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
