Good Friday at home was dismal from any angle - performance, result, track and racing. Had this not been so dire I dont think the 2 away defeats would be getting too much attention. Only Cam has significantly under performed. Whilst Rohan has disappointed this is in the context of the expectations of him and that superb first meeting performance. Morten has had the one awful meeting but that aside he has been good value. Gino has been a revelation. Richie W superb. Ritchie H solid andseems to enjoy the captaincy. Adam looks to have moved up a notch or 2. So the team is not a problem as such so long as Cam can get sorted. The track is but it wont change overnight - it will take time so we need to find a way to work with it until it can be sorted. At least we can be sure that Bob will get it right if he is given the right conditions and materials to work with. IMO frustrating and disappointing yes but a disaster no.

Looking at updates it seems someone forgot to tell any of the riders this is a meaningless fixture!

This years regs do not seem to state how many matches count towards the rolling averages - only stating 'the specified number' without going on to specify it for each league! Anyone know the correct number?

was 24 at the end of last year but nothing in 2014 regs as has been nentioned!Nothing in the regs either as to how the best place runner up will be decided(average points has been suggesred on here)

Today was the last meeting to count towards the May averages. Anyone out there with the spreadsheet to work it out? LC group matches do count this year (a change from previous)Even with that being the case rolling averages take some time to have a real impact.

Redcar now favourites to take best runner up place.

A draw or better for the Witches coupledwith Berwick failing to win at Worky would see the semi final line ups decided today.

Really? I dont recall Fisher hitting the fence and his footrest gouging out the kickboard.

2 or 3 must be close so work it right and you could choose who it is. Wink

far from pointless - LC group matches count for the averages so the scores will go towards deciding who will be your No1.

I think all riders from other teams have booked a holiday for that week and your semi will have to in September.

It was a bit tongue in cheek. When the sun was out it was lovely but as soon as the cloud rolled in it was indeed like the arctic! One last comment re the meeting/s - special mention for Blackbird who IMO was rider of the day.

So near to a point but oh so far. Some pride restored to an extent at least. Lessons to learn and onwards and upwards hopefully. Well done to the Panthers - vindicating their pre season favourites tag.

Had planned to go to this one up until a couple of days ago but cant justify the cost - the kids prefer Legoland! After this afternoon I dont expect anything other than a big Boro win. 40 points would be a huge success.

Rye by 20 if the Witches of this afternoon turn up!

Panthers were right on it and fully deserved their win. The score didnt flatter them either. Just knew it was gonna be one of those days when Ritchie went down when set for a 5-1.Once we went behind it was all over. Pride is all there is to hope for in the return.

Dismal.

are they on you checklist to take? Big coat Scarf Flask of soup Tartan blanket Werthers Originals LOL see ya later old man!

In the past even where it has been stated a voucher is needed I have never been asked to provide one.

yer just a big wuss!!

alternatively he could just be doing his usual- talking out of his ar$e!

Doolan Risager Tungate Heeps and Manzares added since going PL. Blackbird I think has also switched to being a Witches asset. Few teams have added as many in that time. It would be great to have Worrall and Ellis as assets but there are 22 others clubs that would think the same so to have the chance to have 2 of the best young Brits in our side despite not being assests is a close second. The fact that they will miss a few meetings is a price worth paying IMO.

He better hope the Leicester paramedic isnt on duty!!

IMO the form of Bach will decide both meetings. An impressive Bach - say 12 points and the home team will definately win. A poor return - say 4 points and the away team will be right in with a shout.

Dont see that ever happening whilst a Good Friday crowd is likely to be 3to4 times the norm regardless of the line ups.Why would any PL club agree to giving that up? IMO thay would still run even if EL had priority in all cases.
