  1. Aye ok the 7th , no idea how to change it on my phone .
  2. Surprised no thread for this important league match , suppose the BSN Cup has taken all the interest and angst among us . Really important we don't slip up at home against Redcar again , seriously need to right Wednesdays wrongs . We should be along normal lines , while Luke Harrison guests for the injured Mulford and its not yet known whether Erik Riss will be fit after he withdrew from last night's meeting at Ipswich . Early rain should clear before lunchtime leaving the track perfect for an exciting meeting .
  3. Seriously ? You don't think a 34 point deficit will affect the size of the crowd ? Or are you just trying to be a smart arse?
  4. More chance of the Hubble telescope spotting Elvis riding Shergar on Mars than Poole not reaching 29 points before heat 10 at Ashfield . Probably be the smallest crowd ever for a national final .
  5. Hugely embarrassing . There is no way the team we have assembled should score less than 30 points anywhere and against any opposition in our division . This is why I wanted the home leg first a packed stadium full of anticipation, now we'll have a half full stadium if we're lucky and riders and fans just going through the motions . 15 last places , dear god , that actually takes a bit of doing . Only a 16 year old 3 months into his Championship career escapes criticism .
  6. I'd rather have the first leg anyway . I would prefer us trying to defend a lead as opposed to try to claw back any deficit
  7. And it has just been called off . Didn't need to wait for tomorrow
  8. The two league matches are in July . Make them the BSF Cup final and we'll go to Poole on Wednesday in the league . Cause I dont see tomorrow happening
  9. Not exactly having sleepless nights about him scoring a maximum against a KL side that would struggle to beat most championship sides and on a trick track
  10. Lot of negative paranoia emanating from Dorset . Cant imagine why , you lost at an inform Oxford , big deal . You drew at Redcar , who beat us home and away in the KO Cup , though we were without Basso in the home leg . This has all the makings of a classic as long as the weather doesn't spoil it . I think we will win on Friday , but by enough ? Who knows
  11. And to think the 2 home and 2 away fixture list was agreed until the very end of the promoters meeting
  12. Survived the monsoon weather and was surprised how well the track stood up to the rain . Thinking this was going to be a one sided encounter , credit to the Monarchs in proving me wrong . Ultimately it was the brilliance of Basso and Harris that proved desisive , heat 13 in particular was incredible . Pride restored in the Monarchs camp after last Friday , the new Dane seemed to like the Ashfield circuit better than his own .
  13. And all joking aside , that is the sad part . Craig was a terrific rider to watch round Ashfield , wonderfully entertaining . And a constant thorn in our side during his first stint in the blue and gold . No reason he can't be that rider again if he can put what the trouble is behind him
  14. After opening our home league campaign with a comfortable win over the hapless Brummies , its the turn of the other diddy team to get battered this week . After pumping them in their own midden last week , its important we show them no mercy at the cauldron of speed tomorrow night and build up the points difference . We should be as we were last Friday , but who knows who will turn out for them . Will Pickering be fit ? Will Cook get permission from Nurse Ratchet to ride ? Or will it be two guests again ? With only Birmingham , Oxford and Berwick not in action choices are limited . If it is two guests my guess would be Schlein and Kerr , but who knows . With another scorchio week up here in Hotland, the track staff will have their work cut out to live up to.their impeccable standards.
  15. C'mon Blobby , we're interested . The porn star had a typical porn star performance, couple of duff rides , a win then tangling with a Dane on the 4th bend . We're seen all that before . The new Dane will take time to get used to the track , but didn't really look anything special . Lasse likes to take a dive and the other reserve was predictably out of his depth . But what was Thomson's problem ? He was dreadful
  16. Cracking meeting and a superb performance from our boys . Cant remember seeing a better meeting at Armadale . Harris , Brennan , Vissing were outstanding while Basso and Nowak were solid , Complin showed how much riding for Glasgow means to him and young Ace was so unlucky , leading heat 2 then picking up grip and coming off and that seem to affect the rest of his meeting . For Edinburgh , the guests did their job . Worrall looked very fast and Kerr tried hard for his points . Castagna had his one good race , Thomson was rubbish and Lasse whatshisface had a up and down meeting , laterly mostly down . Woods was out his depth . Biggest shock of the night , a fiver for a pint in the bar
  17. Despite their recent home struggles , and having a patched septet tonight , you just know the Monarchs are going to be up for this tonight more than any other league match . So we'll have to get the best out of our 7 , no silly exclusions , if we are to prevail . We should have an excellent chance of winning, but I've been to Armadale too many times thinking that , only to be disappointed . Should be a cracker though
  18. Think that had more to do with the division 2 sides being shafted , with the promised spreading of the top riders throughout the league failing to materialise . And Glasgow having to start the season with r/r for a non existent number 1 . And the less said about 96 the better . I got bored supporting the away team every week
  19. While that might be true , watch the next two Fridays . We will have a couple of hundred on the 3rd and 4th bend on Friday night , the following Friday there might be 50 or so Monarchs fans at our place , depending on Friday's result . Days of fans travelling any distance for an away meeting are just about priced out of the equation . If we have any ambition to go with the money spent , its time we were riding against the likes of Belle Vue , Ipswich ,Kings Lynn etc
