Bash

Surprised he took this booking as we all know how much he hates having the number 1 on his back.

Can I ask where you were sitting/standing at Foxhall?, because from my view by the startline Tungate got hit by Bjerre's back wheel entering the turn and left him nowhere to go except down so should have been all four back. Also if you think Hawkins should have been excluded in heat two at Peterborough then Fisher should have been excluded from heat one at Foxhall.

Hopefully you'll forget your password to this forum and we won't get you're constant drivel. You name Monberg in your new lineup and then later say better not be Monberg!!! And by the way under age drinking is against the law.

I think this thread is heading down a rock-eel road.

Good exciting meeting to start the official fixtures off with some really hard and close racing. If Rye supporters claim they should have nicked a point you have to ask what their team manager was doing not putting the black and white on Garrity in heat 10 when he had the chance. If we ride like this with Rohan & Cam having off nights wait till Cam's fully fit, we should be a force to be reckoned with and have good reserves all year.

He's trying to be clever as he is probably referring to Scunthorpe's National League team who hasn't signed anyone yet!

As Chris Louis says he already has guests booked so he may already have Rene & Millsey booked.

My six teams for playoffs in no order Berwick Ipswich Newcastle Scunthorpe Peterborough Workington

Its not right what the Bspa have done, but why doesn't Gary move his meeting to the Sunday when the ELRC was originally scheduled for as the top riders would still be available.

I was used to watching elite league racing at Ipswich for years, but since dropping down the racing has been better and closer than whats on show in the elite league nowadays. Give it a chance and stop being an elite league snob.

With Peterborough coming back in the league the BSPA for not scrapping the additional fixtures against the same teams.

Looking at the fixtures we will be missing Richie Worrall twice, Home & Away v Peterborough on Good Friday. This could rise to four if Ipswich have home meetings on 29th May & 14th August as these are stated as Open at the moment. Whereas with Adam Ellis it's a different story. He will be missing 8 meetings :- Plymouth Away LC 11th April Peterborough Home & Away LC 18th April Newcastle Home PL 5th May Scunthorpe Away PL 20th June Plymouth Home PL 10th July Rye House Home PL 7th August Sheffield Home PL 30th August There could be 1 more meeting if Somerset get through to face up in the cup and Adam would miss the away leg on 13th June. It all depends on how well Adam does this year to see what sort of guests we can get.

Good Friday is a nightmare friday as with all the young brits riding for elite league teams, guests are going to have to come from what is left of the national league riders. I think there may be a lot of RR riding that day!

Six teams make the playoffs

Yes it was, as I was told by a couple of our riders at Rye House the meeting before the changes took effect.

Well we've got the number 1 a lot of us fans wanted. Great news, any idea when there will be more announcements concerning the rest of the team? I just hope Chris gets shot of Morten as we don't need a repeat of this season when he got too big for his balls and we lost all our team spirit at the wrong stage of the season.

Alright then swap Eklof for Hugh Skidmore who goes well around Foxhall.

Come on then Johnny what team would you put up? Just because Eklof didn't do it for your favourite team KL ( ), in the premier league he should do alright.

How about the following team. Richie Worrall 8.64 Anders Mellgren 7.33 Rohan Tungate 7.05 Cameron Heeps 6.74 Linus Eklof 5.76 Ritchie Hawkins 3.96 Steve Worrall 3.00 Total 42.48 Find it strange that Rye have left Mellgren out of their line up, would be worth a punt.

I didn't even realise he rode for Redcar, thought when he left Newcastle he just rode National League. Makes it a no-brainer on that average to put him in the team. I reckon a lot of clubs will be after him.

That's the last average I could find for him on the official green sheets, but who knows as they don't put all the riders on them who have ridden. With the rolling averages sometimes a string of noughts doesn't make a difference.

Shame, not bad line ups but Steve Worrall's average is 4.24.

Maybe they could talk Justin Sedgmen to come back on 4.99, or Lewis Blackbird on 4.93.

But Peterborough aren't declared in any league yet, so If Sheffield & Glasgow don't run this would leave 10 teams the same as the elite league. Therefore you could scrap the play-offs and run home and away twice and still have the koc and league cup competitions.

Talk is he will be riding for Swindon which would rule him out as fellow Thursday night track.
