  1. wherever it is they might have to pay him £100 a point though.
  2. My gut feeling is it was never in doubt that the Gladiators would be coming to tapes in 2027. When the article hit the Plymouth Herald on the 20th October the quoted target was £20000 not £46000 ? It's not as if it is a big track. The threat of not running in 2027 has obviously had the desired effect.
  3. Can only have been a very good offer geoff100. Great signing for Scunny. Still a bit gutted he won't be back. I had him going to Glasgow. He rides both tracks well.
  4. I would think the Bears fans will have been a bit disappointed in Jake . May well end up back at Scunny.
  5. There's money at Scunny if they can afford Picko.
  6. Congrats to the Bandits riders, management and fans. Great to see a club winning something after so many years. Saddened to see PK finish this way, one of my favourite riders especially as a Comet. Shame he will also miss the Premiership Playoff final.
  7. I would like to hear why the ref made the decision he did. I can understand the Scunny frustrations as both of Cooks wheels crossed the white line. There was also a blatant tyre warming incident by a Poole rider in the first leg which went unpunished, there were clouds of smoke coming from the tyre it was that obvious.
  8. Worky riders letting themselves, the club and the fans down. No desire on display from either rider. Would have rather watched Tate and Vinny.
  9. Just reward, great potential Reid. Sometimes it is hard to follow up a good debut season with one in the following season, be interesting to see how he progresses but he has all the attributes to push on.
  10. The forecast in the 3 days leading up to the meeting was all over the place. At the time of call off it was very poor after looking like we would miss the rain the day before. It remained a poor forecast until Sat morning when there appeared a chance it may not be as bad. It was definitely the right call based on the information at the time, the BBC forecast proved once again to be nothing if not variable. It did rain later in the evening.
  11. Redcar track around 3 miles less distance wise and takes less time to get there.
  12. There ara a number of joint supporters of Reds and Comets, a couple have expressed their disappointment with this decision to myself personally. It is a somewhat unfortunate switch when the World Cup can be watched on catch up or recorded by those able to watch it.
  13. Very frustrating watch that. Less said the better. Well done to Vinnie who has had a tough season and to Niklas who deserved another ride at least. He looked as comfortable as anyone tonight, his best meeting for the Comets on a very tight track, he impressed greatly for his first time there. Batch showed just what a professional rider he is, his equipment very rarely lets him down. Easily our best rider over the two meetings.
