paulnolan Posted yesterday at 03:39 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 03:39 PM Not totally surprised there's no interest in this but Northampton are away at Sheffield. It should have been one where we stood a chance of a bonus but throwing away that 8 point lead in the home meeting was embarrassing. R/R for Jack Holder for Sheffield, and Freddy Hodder is in for Troy Batchelor, who has hurt his knee. Can't see anything other than a comfortable home win.

If Batch would have rode like he did for Sheffield, Hodder makes them stronger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fortythirtyeight Posted yesterday at 04:19 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 04:19 PM So a Championship reserve , and relatively inexperienced , replaces a Championship heat leader and former International …… good luck with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheDeepStuff Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago Unfortunately for Northampton they have too many riders that if they don’t gate then that’s it, went to Owlerton last night for second time this season and Lidsey, Klindt, Zagar all nowhere if didn’t get out of the start, Klindt especially embarrassing won one race by a country mile, then other same distance back in last place. Whereas for Sheffield Pickering (no surprise there), Kileen and Flint all showed that the track was conducive to overtaking. Northampton need a rider (or two) to add to the squad who will attack a track if they want to have more chances of gaining wins during the season someone like Charles Wright for example. Scoreline could have been worse if Kileen hadn’t have been given ht15 but it was well deserved him getting the pick of been the higher scorers in Rowe, Pickering and Holder snr.

marko Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago This is British League top division match and including this reply, only five have commented on it, shocking! Add to that I read in this weeks star that Sheffield sent out 10000 free tickets to kids and only 300 turned up, I think Sheffield is finished.

Hopefully they will be back but its a tough sell with no Tai, no Jack but same/more money this year for lower quality product we can ill afford to lose Sheffield or Worky but agree its looking grim at the moment.
