  1. He rides defensively, can’t argue with that, generally because he doesn’t have the speed these days but I haven’t seen him blatantly throttle off to the extent Pickering and Lawson have both done at the showground this year down the start / finish straight.
  2. I think the blocking that Pickering was attempting needs to be looked at. On a track as fast as Peterborough it’s dangerous. Team riding is one thing but this is blatant blocking which isnt allowed in other forms of Motorsport. Only have to see what happened to Adam Ellis in the pairs when Lawson did the same thing to see what can go wrong. Creates a difference in speed between the riders which inevitably causes issues and increases the likelihood of a rider catching a back wheel.
  3. And judging by Basso’s latest post on Instagram I’d say he probably wasnt really fit to ride in 15 or the superheat. Any idea who the rider was who was being seen by the paramedics before 15?
  4. Basso struggled to beat Hume in 14 though so why would you think he could beat Doyle or king in 15?
  5. Jenkins for Palin is an odd one. Can’t just be based on performances….
  6. Easy to say in hindsight. Lyon has won us enough meetings in the past and clearly knows what he’s doing so difficult to judge without knowing all the details.
  7. Not convinced that would make us any stronger at home tbh.
  8. 2 super heats so far and 2 home wins. Hardly rewards the away teams efforts to get a draw.
  9. He was decent and performed better than expected. He’s not the answer for this year though…..
  10. Who were the two you were told? Apologies if I’ve missed it from before
  11. Getting rid of bomber would be an interesting move…
  12. I’m sure if the right rider was available they would have. However, would be silly to sign someone to make the team weaker just so they could field a full team.
  13. R/R for me away from home if that’s the choice. Put your faith in the riders that have got this far….
  14. Hans will score more than bjarne round wolves when in the main body of the team though which should offset to some extent bjarne not scoring as many from reserve. If the guys in the main body of the team all score well then there is less need for bjarne to take 7 rides at reserve. Problem comes if one of the main body has an off night you then don’t have a decent replacement to bring in. Hopefully we’re due a meeting when they all fire because as well as we’ve done, that has rarely happened this year.
  15. Seem to remember Tai saying Tungate looked like Bambi on ice round there……would be useful round Belle Vue though if we get them in the semis which is likely…..
  16. I thought he had to return to New Zealand shortly as he failed the exam to get a visa to stay here?
  17. You could argue Ellis got you a point at Peterborough as a guest you wouldn’t have got otherwise……I don’t think Rowe guesting for Sheffield is the reason you won’t be making the playoffs…..
