King's Lynn V Mildenhall (nlkoc) 2nd May
adz_mft replied to MrMungo's topic in National League Speedway
Ay?? I couldn't see what Lew had done wrong when Cockle floored him tbh.Total over reaction by the so called Lynn Captain.A view that was shared by not just Mildenhall fans. As HT says.We looked at the replay that we had and what you describe is rubbish tbh.He didn't "go for a gap that wasn't there" he was clipped himself which then made him a passenger into the unfortunate Adam Lowe (who had looked the best i've ever seen him ride for that matter) But anyway back to reality. Hope both Lewis and Adam are ok after that crash to start off with. Plenty of effort from both sets of riders on a well prepared track. For Lynn; I thought Adam Lowe looked brilliant tbh before the crash.His move on Cam was pretty special tbh.Knight clearly isn't fit,think he has come back too soon.Kerr was unlucky in his last 2,but did look very ordinary in his first couple.Campos,Stokes and Johnson looked pretty solid,and Cockle did his job at number 1. For Mildenhall;Cam looked fast.Cracking bit of team riding to shield Nathan in ht13.Halsey again impressed.Looks so much more comfortable on the bike.Seems he has found the form that took him into the PL a couple of years back.Joe and Stef backed up Danny and Cam really well.Lew looked fast again before the crash.Finally the 2 reserves continued to impress.Got better as the meeting went on.Nathans ht13 win was decent.Cracking 1st couple of bends by the lad. Good to see every rider from the Mildenhall team getting a win also.Will do their confidence the world of good. -
Give it a rest BW..its a challenge meeting and the lads from the US don't have averages so how should they have worked out the r/r's

Decent performance from the boys today and tbh the 40 points Lynn got flattered them.We gave them a couple of cheap points,but It's early season,so those mistakes will be ironed out.Hope Josh isn't too badly injured after his spill. Cam,Danny and Lewis were different class.Lew would have had a max also if it wasn't for bike problems just as the tapes went up.Congrats to Danny and Cam on their 1st home maximums for us Stef was unlucky not to score more.That boy certainly doesn't give up.Joe got caught out by the track in the 1st,and that seemed to affect him in his 2nd.Was back to the form he showed last week in his last 2 though.Nathan again impressed.Looks incredibly smooth on a bike.Josh had a bit of a day to forget..Flipping in his 1st then whilst in a comfortable 2nd picked up a bit and lost it.As I said,hopefully he isn't too badly hurt.. Think this lead should be enough to see us through..Here's hoping anyway.. Adz

Mildenhall V Dudley - National League Shield 8/4/2012
adz_mft replied to PhilK's topic in National League Speedway
Great way to open the season.Good to see so many people turn up considering what the weather looked like.Also good to see a fair few stay for the AJL racing after the meeting. Close meeting as expected today.Track looked in superb condition,which produced some good tight racing. Cam and Lewis led from the front.Backed superbly by Joe,Danny and Stef. Joe looks a totally different rider from last season.Looked really quick.Was very unlucky when he had a bit of a coming together with Cam. Have to say i'm really impressed with what i saw from our young reserves.Can't ask for more than what they produced today.Nathan looks super smooth on the bike and Josh looks like a real racer.They are only going to get better through the season. With this as an opener the season can only get better.Bring it on.Up the Tigers -
Excellent start to team building

Yes it was filmed

What a meeting!! Our lads rode their bits off.What an effort.I never in a million years would have said we would take it down to a last heat decider. Some of the racing tonight was superb.Great stuff from both sets of riders.Great advert for the sport for sure. Congrats to Scunny on winning overall.Your top riders came good at the right time.Hope you enjoyed your visit to the fens I don't think you could get much closer finish than what we saw in heat15.Cracking stuff. Roll on next season TIGERS!!!!

Well he obviously has otherwise he wouldn't be allowed to ride..They are still developing British riders..This is what the training days that they are organising are designed for!!

Rogue Trader won't be a happy bunny.Oh dear,what a shame,nevermind..fantastic news for us
-
The promotion think Portwood is going to progress more than what Nick will so gave him the chance..I see no problem with that..Nicks been given a chance,and apart from 1 meeting hasn't delivered tbh..Portwood may not be ready for nl racing,but he can't do any worse than Nick so you may aswell give him the experience IMO
-
I meant heat 15 my appologies
-
Fantastic win for the tigers..everyone put the effort in.Jacobs was lightning from the tapes and was unlucky in heat 14.Brilliant turn out by the Mildenhall fans..was easily half the crowd IMO Yes Cameron was in the 2nd half..I saw 1 race..comfortably beating hopwood and getting a time of 59.9..not bad for his 1st time there
-
Can anybody update on how the weather is please..Thanks in advance

How we never came away with a win i will never know..Yet again though another cracking team performance with a decent result.I would have taken 1 point before the meeting,but feel slightly disapointed that we didn't get the win,when we certainly could have.Good to see a fair few Mildenhall fans there this evening. Brundle-Superb.2 heat15's on the trot now he has pulled something out the bag Baseby-Brilliant again.Certainly suprised me so far Jacobs-Seems really down on power at the moment,needs to get it sorted,as we know what he is capable of Halsey-Solid,unlucky not to get more points Hargreaves-Impressive.So unlucky to get the ef on the last bend when a mile clear Stoneman-Gave it a go.Held Rayson off for a lap Blackbird-Unlucky not to score more.Maybe should have settled for the points he had in a couple,but i can't fault him for giving it a go

Mildenhall Fen Tigers V Dudley Heathens
adz_mft replied to PhilK's topic in National League Speedway
What can i say? Bloody brilliant.Everything about yesterday was superb.Huge crowd,great track,close racing,a new track record and a last heat decider.If that doesn't encourage people to return then nothing ever will.Brundle's heat 15 win was awesome.Where the hell he found that gate from i will never know.Couldn't see anyone beating Roynon,who had been flying all afternoon. Good to see a large following from Dudley there yesterday.Hope you enjoyed the meeting Can't wait for the next home meeting. The Tigers are back -
Nathan Greaves & Robert Lambert
adz_mft replied to cometsfan2k4's topic in Youth Speedway and Development Leagues
I don't think they are related.Certainly a prospect for the future.I could be wrong but i think at 1 point he has been Mildenhall's mascot. -
Have i missed something?

Looks pretty good

Taken off the Mildenhall site Supporters of Mildenhall Fen Tigers will get the chance to meet the new promotion team of Chris Louis, Michael Lee and Kevin Jolly this weekend as they unveil details of the “new era” they've got planned to secure the club's long term future. The trio are hosting a Support the Tigers night at West Row on Saturday evening (5th March at 7.30pm) and they want to see as many supporters there as possible. The riders already signed for 2011 National League campaign will also be attending, and the name of the latest addition to the team will be revealed as well. Co-promoter Michael Lee said, “We want to save the announcement until Saturday night, but we are thrilled to have captured the signature of one of the brightest new talents in speedway. We are all looking forward to meeting the fans and telling them what we've got lined up for the new season. The last few weeks since we took over and got the go-ahead to race have been a whirlwind. But the excitement is starting to grow now, and things are starting to fall into place, so now we can't wait to finalise the rest of the team and get the season underway.” He continued, “Myself, Chris and Kevin have already worked long and hard to make a success of the venture and we are determined to make it work on all levels and deliver the professional set-up the club deserve. We'll also be talking about the Speedway Academy we are setting up at West Row, which from a personal point of view, is something I can't wait to get started. It would be great if we discovered a future British Number One at Mildenhall.” National League co-ordinator Peter Morrish will also be attending on Saturday keen to explain why the league originally vetoed the Fen Tigers joining the league under Steve Ribbons leadership, before the 11th hour acceptance of the Louis, Lee and Jolly promotion. “Whatever supporters think about what happened earlier this winter we could never have got off the ground again without Peter's help and belief in what we are doing, so we are delighted he's asked to come on Saturday,” said Lee. He added, “All in all it promises to be a great night. We hope the meeting will be packed for what we believe will be the start of something special for Mildenhall." Wonder who this new rider is then :s

Looking For A Team Spot... Again
adz_mft replied to danny.halsey's topic in National League Speedway
Unless Hargreaves's average is lower than it states.His average is too high unfortunately -
The 8.30 seems to have come from nowhere tbh.Even if it is double his last pl average,he should still be entitled to some sort of reduction as he hasn't ridden since 08.Hope so anyway as it doesn't leave us with a lot of choice for the final 3

Great minds think alike..Couldn't decide between Lawrence and Kirby..If Lawrence stops doing those bloody wheelies every 2 mins he would prob be in mine lol
