I remember Peter Collins not turning up at Newport for a league meeting as Somerton Park was notorious for being rough, a breakdown was the reason given but later he admitted it was because of the track. We lost i think 45-33 or similar top scorers Phil Crump and Alan Wilkinson two riders who would ride anything. I remember Ivan Mauger replying when asked whats your favourite type of track " i have no favourites they all have to be ridden" spot on that.

I said this wouldnt be a walk in the park when people were talking about 60-30.

And its not exactly a Champions league as 2nd to 5th in the league table qualify for it.

I think this should be a home win, but predictions of 60-30 hmm not sure about that, Ipswich are a team that has a solid look about it as they showed against Kings Lynn, our top two are a level above but i think if Witches are on it they can trouble our middle order/reserves. Look to pack the minor placings against Dan and Brady and who knows?

I will go for a 4 to 6 point home win

I would be motivated to prove them wrong

I think despite what fans say he will be his own biggest critic.

Have to agree, when i was down in Cornwall many businesses didnt accept cash, when i encountered one i just cancelled the order and walked out, i always to prefer paying cash, use it or lose it.

I anticipated queues on the south stand so bought my ticket at the main box office which was very quick, i was surprised when i saw the actual size of the queue for the south stand.

I think the rules governing concussion are not as strict in Europe as they are in the UK so Blodorn could ride over there but not in the UK. The rule for concussion should be standard throughout in world sport.

Agree but if Northampton flops it could have the opposite effect on those groups trying to bring tracks back, it really needs to succeed to benefit the sport overall.

I dont disagree with you i was reacting to a generalization not you directly

Aces? One fans attitude.

RIP

Whoever wins the "league" there is no kudos to it is there? I think attendences are going to be woeful after this close season, its difficult to see how the sport recovers from this now.
