Super Blue

In fairness I was actually thinking about the other Rye reserve , Garrity , he really is an accident waiting to happen with his riding ! Bunyan not so bad in hindsight . Birks I would suggest ought to a PL reserve such as the likes of Heeps and Nielsen ( not in the main team ) but no doubt he will have a blinder as an awful lot of opposing riders seem to at Foxhall ! Still , lets hope for a good meeting with everyone staying safe and preferably ON their bikes ! ( would make a change for Wells )

Ricky Wells quite likes Foxhall but does like falling off without being touched and getting other riders excluded in the process ! And Bunyan is just plain wreckless so I think at least 2 of the 3 guests are interesting choices !

A few of the Workington team have quite a liking for Foxhall as they proved earlier in the season , but then again most visiting teams have this year . Subject to no last minute withdrawal from all competitions they will pose a great threat to the Witches and as they don't appear to have lost at home as yet a decent lead would be required for the 2nd leg . Worky have themselves been decimated by injury and the choice of guests is interesting . The result of this meeting as I've said many times before will depend on which Witches actually turn up on the night !

Speedway must be just about the most expensive sport on the planet to watch proportionately ! Lets be honest , realistically it's a pound a minute and that's extortionate ! You won't find many others that work out that much !

Well done to Kevin , shame he couldn't do that riding for the Witches ! Obviously there is much speculation as to where he will be next year but I know full well he would have scored more points than Taylor has since he was replaced by him . Maybe some kind of agenda thing by Chris Louis ? Average manipulation perhaps for next year ? Who knows , I'm sure all will become clear at some point .

Both teams have lost their no1's , Dudley have replaced theirs and the Tigers haven't . Even if Cam were to come back in time he would be seriously rusty ! Initially Isherwood seems to be an inspirational choice of replacement for Josh after tonight's meeting at Stoke but that was his home track prior to injury so only time will tell . I believe Dudley must be favourites for both cup and league but think they would be pretty close and feisty affairs if that's how things pan out !

Butting in on this one , at that time Charlie Gjedda was available ! Although the " Its not my job " would be a very correct and valid comment to make . Rather alot for the management to consider for next year as at the end of the day it is their job !

REALLY ! It not particularly about a rider coming off on his own , It's about the refereeing ! Every meeting I've seen that shes officiated at has contentious decisions which are mostly wrong !! In heat 13 she pulled a start back that there was nothing wrong with ! Lemon missed the start in that and then sods law was able to change his bike and win the rerun ! She's a joke and so are you if you can't grasp the just of my point !

FEMALE REFS SHOULD BE BANNED !!!!! SHE IS BLOODY USELESS !!!!! Nedermark bailed out on his own in heat 14 , noone around him and should have been excluded !!! Words fail me , for Christ sake every time she refs here she cocks up !!!

How long is it before Josh Bates is likely to be back then ? As people keep reminding us , it's a development league but it's still about trying to win and get some silverware in the cabinet ! To achieve those goals I believe at least one decent scoring reserve will be required !

Very seldom do you see a meeting start where a team only has one reserve ! A big well done to the Tigers on such a convincing victory away with only 5 riders ! Lets hope Cam will be fit and firing on all cylinders for the important fixtures ahead and what's going on with the jinxed reserve positions this year ? I certainly wish Aaron a speedy recovery and lets see if the management can find yet another suitable replacement to fill the reserve spot ? I think at least one of the 6/7 positions needs to have a bit of firepower if any silverware is going to picked up against Dudley at the business end of the season !

Average manipulation ! How can you suggest such a thing ? I think Leigh's been doing that the whole season . It's been a strange season with so many expectation and so many let downs ! I believe any realistic hopes of being one of the dominant teams around evaporated with the injuries to Taylor and Morten in the opening meeting . Coupled with some serious underperforming , the subsequent release of Kevin our season faded away ! We do still of course have the possibility of silverware so come on boys , do it for the fans !!

I'm afraid the seasons over league wise ! Lets just hope we can put up a decent showing in the cup competitions against 2 teams that both have injury issues themselves .

Think this could be a good meeting and outcome will probably be more about which Witches turn up rather than the Monarchs . What should be a home win could easily end up as a big defeat ! That's the reason we are where we are in the table . Too many riders underperforming the whole season with the odd flash of what they are capable of ! Shame as on paper the Witches should be able to compete with anyone in this League ! Anyway , let's hope for some good racing with everyone staying safe , there's been far too many bad injuries everywhere this year !

If only !

Really ? Why oh why do people constantly come out with the " what would you do / who would you sign " chestnut ? It's not for me to decide or suggest ! If Blackleg ( sorry Blackbird ) isn't going to be available regularly for the Tigers then something needs to be done ! My primary team is the Witches but I have a real affection for Mildenhall and it pains me to see them lose on Sunday when in all probability in my opinion they would have won with a full team ! It just winds me up when a good settled team has to suffer because of situations like this farce ! It's bad enough losing riders to injury ( like Nathan ) and now this on top ! I know a few out there may not like my opinions but I'm entitled to them and The Tigers season could ( maybe ) go pear shaped !

So Blackbird is missing another meeting to ride for Leicester, happy days ! At Mildenhall the other week they clearly announced an agreement had been made for him to only miss one of the Tigers meetings ! Missing 2 in 6 days is ridiculous ! Either Leicester are going back on the original deal or someone didn't get something down on paper they should have ! I know Michael Lee has expressed his displeasure over Sunday's situation but if Blackbirds priorities are now away from West Row then replace him is what I say ! Then when he gets dumped by Leicester for underperforming he will be out of a job !

Yup , well done to Stoke . I'm sure Lewis would have scored more than the 5 accrued by RR in his absence . Better not make any comments on this as I may upset people ! Probably cost Mildenhall the win though .

You are entitled to your opinion and I am to mine , don't dismiss mine without backing it up !!! I've previously stated that I want him to progress at the right time in other posts but it's sad to say loyalty is missing in this case and life in general these days !! Having looked at some other posts of yours do I comment that your opinion is utter crap ? No I don't , even when it bulls**t !!! This forum is about debate not abuse so I will leave it there ! Looks like this could be off anyway , track inspection later .

I as others have said have no issues with riders trying to better themselves or enhance their careers but when it's to the detriment of the team who took you on board and made you captain I really think it's a bit much ! He should be loyal to and ride for Mildenhall first and foremost this season IMO and if good enough move on next year !

I'm sorry , but this is a cock up by somebody somewhere and the losers are Mildenhall losing their captain to a meeting where with all due respect to him he probably won't score many , signed up for the season as captain and he buggers of to ride for Leicester ! I think it's wrong but it's all about opinions I suppose .

Does anyone know who exactly Lewis Blackbird is riding for on Sunday as apparently Leicester are insisting that he will not be riding for Mildenhall as their start time is 6.00pm ? Wasn't this meeting brought forward to allow him time to get to Leicesterfor a 7.30pm start ? If so it's an absolute joke !!!

I think we could all do with a good no2 from time to time !

Stupid damn thing decided to duplicate post !
