That article is a bit ropey,it States English saying we only won by 2 points on aggregate at beginning of season,what is he talking about.Dont know who put it together but it’s pretty poor.Imo
Saw Vaclav Verner use the same tactics at Halifax when riding for Exeter,lost count the number of times he touch the fence on the 3rd 4th bend.At the time just thought he was out of control( not so)
Yip,should be a cracker of a meeting, whether Cook can miss the gate and pick off quality riders remains to be seen, certainly makes Championship riders look 2 nd rate.Seems silly to have Lambert and Cook in same meeting when only top 4 makes it through.
Think what you saw last night will be as good as it gets from that Tigers team, Sarjeant might go to reserve ,but Bickley will be in main body.Vissing is as good as he gets ,usually tapers off. Starke can be up and down.(good team though).
Glasgow announced some of the riders tonight,Chris Holder,Tungate,NC Iversen,JacobThrorsell,Cook,R Lambert, Hans Andersen,Pontus Aspegren, Covetti, Berge are the ones that I can remember.Some Countries still to confirm riders.
It definitely backfired,Procter and Howarth were in each other’s way most of the time.Kemp stuffed up Nicol in Ht8 things were still tight up to that point.
Decent meeting some good heats, a lot of effort from both Teams.Disappointing from Kemp after seeing him there last season thought he would have been in the mix for points.
The bottom line is ,these days Top Men riding in UK is a pain in the a#re for them ,so dodgy tracks makes a good case for bailing out.UK tracks are becoming more unsuitable to super fast machinery and more risk to picking up an injury preventing them getting “ big bucks” abroad.
Think fans are reflecting state the sport is in ,as to actually criticising Eastbourne.There are becoming to many reasons to cancel meetings and still expect fans to change their plans to suit Promoters,fans make their plans around fixture list too.Perhaps the need to look at the reason they would lose so much money (all Promotions).
The way the sport is run that is probably the case nowadays.Very few travelling fans these days.Even then you can be watching same riders riding for different teams most weeks.
