IainB Posted 3 hours ago Author Report Share Posted 3 hours ago Northamptoningham basically fielded a Championship level team tonight and despite almost staging a bit of a mid meeting comeback probably would have failed to beat Scunthorpe on tonight's evidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago ANY top flight team replacing two none double upper heat leaders with RR & MPT would be way under strength. It a result of injuries and has happened many times before and will happened again, unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is currently riding at No.2 but I don’t think it’s unrealistic for him to be second in the team averages before too much longer. It’s always difficult to get cover for riders on the up having an average below their current form, so hope he won’t miss too many meetings. Early days I know but I’m starting to have second thoughts about Gilkes. Love watching him, a real trier/racer, but is his injury record down to bad luck? Continued injuries will bring is technique/ bike control into question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Continued injuries will bring is technique/ bike control into question. On form, this season, DT is 2nd in the averages on 6.44 (not including tonight) officially he's 4th ahead of Morris and Kemp. He may not even have broken his collarbone, apparently he was saying he thought he had but the medics were saying they didn't think he had... Mr Dickson said he should get it x-rayed. I thought Gilkes wasn't too bad this evening, he didn't get the points but was on the pace and in the thick of the action, not bad after nearly a year out. I don't trust much to luck, good or bad, if riders keep getting injured it's for a reason, much like riders whose machinery keeps letting them down.

Whitelinehugger Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Can’t believe how many injuries are stacking up so early in the season. Gonna be a lot of guesting and R/R because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
