  1. Poor meeting thanks to the track being poor, obviously couldn't be helped with the heat and the wind. However, bend 3 seemed to catch a lot of riders out. Stoke threw it away, losing about 8 or 9 points with falls, but I can't see us losing back at Stoke. Need to cut out the silly mistakes in the league meeting. For Buxton, Taylor and Branford looked good, Allot looked alright for 2 rides. Reserves looked very poor. For Stoke, Garrity was a great choice of guest, Pickard would have had a maximum but for 2 falls, Isherwood wasn't great, neither was Atkin. Webster looked quick, Reade chipped in, and Sarjeant looked good when out in front. Gutted we didn't win, but can't forsee many problems in progressing to the next round of the cup.
  2. I may not be Squall, but I reckon: Buxton 41 - 49 Stoke Webster to top score for Stoke with 12.
  3. According to the Stoke press release: Line Ups: Not in riding order : Buxton: Adam Allott ©, Ryan Blacklock, Robert Branford, Dean Felton, John McPhail, Luke Priest, Ben Taylor Stoke: Tony Atkin ©, Jason Garrity (Guest), Gareth Isherwood, Jaimie Pickard, Ben Reade, James Sarjeant, Tim Webster
  4. Presume this is a 3pm start? Anyone heading to it? I'm looking forward to it! Garrity apparently guests in place of Lambert!
  5. Greg Blair may potentially be out there, as is Mark Baseby. Maybe James Birkinshaw as well?
  6. I think they were. It was also good value for both meetings, £17 for the 2 (Or £13 for students!)
  7. Nice to see the 2 Stoke boys score well!
  8. Awful track, so glad I don't have to go there again! We threw away a few points, and cost ourselves any chance of a point by not having a number 1. Such is life.
  9. So, according to the Stoke press release, it's Dan Berwick who guests in place of Ben Reade. Good luck Dan. No lose situation for him, if he impresses, maybe he can force his way into the Stoke team!
  10. We all have our choices. Personally, I would have hoped for Adam Roynon or Darren Mallet, but they must have been unavailable! Such is life, I just hope we have enough through the team to get us the win. The key is going to be the middle order of the team, if Pickard, Atkin and Isherwood turn up like they did at Newport, we have a good chance.
  11. Priest? Really? I was confident about a win. Not so much now...I'm sure Malcolm has tried all available options, but still. Doesn't inspire me with confidence! Also, anyone know who rides at 6 for Stoke?
  12. Stoke didn't do a bad job hosting the semi by all accounts, let us have the final instead! Centrally located on a Saturday night, jobs a good un!
  13. Just to say a couple of things The track looked a lot better this year than when I went last year. Obviously got dusty towards the end, but it just looked better, and seemed to hold moisture better. Secondly, I hope Ben Reade has a speedy recovery. Was a horrible crash. No idea what the prognosis is
  14. Loved the victory Nice to have a Stoke team that can win for a change!
  15. Any more on the admission cost for this? Should be a good meeting!
  16. Thank you. I'd had a look on there but couldn't see anything! As a student, £13 for an EL and NL meeting, can't be bad!
  17. I know it's early, but I am looking at heading down to this meeting, as it forms part of a double header with Lakeside v Eastbourne. I was just wondering if the prices were known yet for admission to both meetings, or if it will just be the normal admission for each added up!
  18. I'll be down for it! Hopefully to see us take our first league points of the season!
  19. Really enjoyable meeting! A draw was probably a fair result. Stoke missed Lambert, and Dudley missed Morris! Look forward to the next time we lock horns!
  20. Quite looking forward to this. Given that it's the Speedway Star's top 2 predicted teams, it could be a clash of the titans!
  21. Nice to see you giving the 2 Stoke riders the best marks
  22. No, still at Uni. Will be there against Dudley! Thankfully my Dad text me updates while I was in the pub!
  23. Here goes: Heat 1) Priest, Edberg, Pickard, Garrity 1-5 2) Sarjeant, Reade, Lee, Geary 5-1 6-6 3) Sarjeant, Atkin, Salomonson, Priest 5-1 11-7 (Isherwood had touched the tapes, replaced by Sarjeant) 4) Andersen, Webster, Reade, Lee 3-3 14-10 5) Atkin, Priest, Edberg, Isherwood 3-3 17-13 6) Garrity, Andersen, Pickard, Geary 7) Salomonson, Webster, Reade, Edberg 8) Pickard, Priest, Sarjeant, Lee 9) Andersen, Atkin, Isherwood, Geary 10) Andersen, Pickard, Garrity, Salomonson 11) Webster, Edberg, Priest(EX), Sarjeant (EX) 12) Salomonson, Isherwood, Reade, Geary 13) Webster, Garrity, Andersen, Edberg 14) Salomonson, Atkin, Sarjeant, Lee 15) Andersen, Garrity, Pickard, Salomonson That should be right!
  24. I once sent a heat result to the local Chinese takeaway...
  25. Stoke team was: Jason Garrity Jamie Pickard Gareth Isherwood Tony Atkin Tim Webster Ben Reade James Sarjeant. Sure you can work the other team out now you know that!
