JanAndersen Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago A draw felt like a fair result overall I think. The tac sub changed the momentum certainly - I understand why the rule is there but the speedway purest in me dislikes it. That Glasgow side once they’re all up and running will take some stopping. If Flint stays as fast a he looked tonight that could be the difference. For Edinburgh, bit of a mixed bag and I’d love to see Sedgmen’s stats for ht15 over the past few seasons - I never think he’s going to pass anyone. I’d have Kye or even Paco in there ahead of him in heats like that tonight. Cluff won’t get long based on that showing. Jordy looked tentative early but found some speed as did Grahn. Thompson should be a solid no.1 and score well in most meetings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a fair result, Cluff looked like a novice as did Mario, Dan will be a good number 1 and his exploits in heat 15 nearly gave the Monarchs the win, he never gives up.

Considering Cluff has ridden in Poland for a season, then Plymouth last year. Tonight, he certainly looked like he had never ridden a bike before. As for Glasgow. I would hazard a guess and say Hausl won't be around too long. Unless, of course, he shows a liking to Glasgows track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully Ashfield is a speedway track. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago (edited) Glasgow had the better team manager today & that helped them to a draw. I said before heat 11, I didn't trust Cluff to beat Hausl, I'd have Loftus in 11, Cluff in 12, Loftus in 14, thinking Loftus was more likely to beat Pedersen than Flint? Then when Tigers used a tac sub, in 12 meant it would've been even more advantageous swapping the reserves round. Brilliant ride by Dan T in heat 15, to a draw, Monarchs fans may feel relieved to get a draw rather than bemoan throwing away an 8 points lead? Felt it showed there was no need for a "stupid heat", the heat 15 decider was exciting on its own & "stupid heat" could've been a from the gate anticlimax.

TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted 59 minutes ago Author Report Share Posted 59 minutes ago Really enjoyed that. I think a draw was a fair result. We looked dead and buried at one point, but two Harris inspired advantages in heats 12 and 13 pulled us back into it. Tonight was a free pass for Hausl and Juhl Pedersen, given it was their first encounter with Armadale (a tricky track to navigate), so it was great to see them both contribute important points in heats 11 and 14. Flint being disqualified for the wind blowing the tapes against him was definitely revenge for us “accidentally” stopping that heat with Kye Thomson half a lap ahead of Harris at Ashfield.

An outrageously woeful perspective. Truly awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
