Normski

Was mentioned on supporters club facebook page and website that there was going to be a bucket collection in aid of hynek.

good point I was one of the members collecting outside stadium a lot of people only had £20 notes on them although to be fair a few doubled back and put change in buckets. Something to think about for any future collections.

Weather might win that one 😃😃

Wonder if Andrew Tully fancies a comeback

definitely but would he be available every weekend

Can't see any of the first 3 riding Seb seems to have retired while Pepe and Tresserieu are more into long track

Anders Thomsen worth a punt

5 away meetings before next home match so I would think all efforts will be made to replace injured riders.Not sure who is all available at this moment bit of a headache for promotion but I'm sure there will be news soon.

Not a lot of options with so many meetings on today. Only Sheffield,Ipswich,Edinburgh without meetings today so getting a guest for Claus could be difficult.

Signed for workington taffy

One rider who we could probably fit in is Mathieu Tresarrieu but again would I imagine have a lot of long track commitments.

Think after last year's cockup they wanted the qualifying rounds finished before the final

Like a few bandits fans I thought 4 points was not enough but they have got stuck in had that little bit of luck you need at times and we are still in the cup. Hope hynek is ok.

Damage was done in the home leg with only a 4point lead to defend. Also having 2 guests at reserve doesn't help but if our top 4 can get amongst the points they are capable of scoring and hynek can pick up a few this could end up a tight meeting.

Enjoyable meeting last night with track conditions producing better racing.Good to see Alex riding with a bit more confidence also Richard Hall looking sharper. Top 4 done what we expect of them whilst Hynek can't be faulted for lack of effort.Disappointing crowd for a local derby didn't appear to be a lot of diamonds fans in attendance hopefully crowds will pick up when the warmer weather comes.

Put it in football terms George English is mouriniho ours are John Carver

Nielsen would be an ideal guest plus Ipswich are at Armadale on the Friday so not to far for him to travel

Spoke to Alex yesterday on fb doesn't think he will be fit enough to ride next weekend

Maybe a crop sprayer system on the back of a tractor to keep the track consistent all meeting giving the riders a good racing surface

Track better last night

no just the normal track grading

Be just what the doctor ordered to have a decent cup run think a 20point lead would see us through over the 2 legs

Think at Newcastle riders carry there helmets with them for parade then jump onto there bikes for a couple of practice laps

Anything to make a better atmosphere is worth considering doesn't help when they can't play background music until 6-45pm
