spin king Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 This is shaping up to be a cracking evening, can't wait! Not that it really matters in the great scheme of things, but any takers for a winner for this one? I'd go with Lingren, Compton, Simon Stead and Zorro in the final, Steady to win it! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't think you will very far away with Simon Stead, Andre Compton and Zorro, would have been nice if we could have got Chris Holder, but I still think that this will be a great meeting.

Steve Turner Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Is it my imagination or have I seen Lindgren ride Owlerton well before ? He'll certainly be in the mix anyway...and I'll certainly be in the crowd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heathcote Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Think it must be your imagination as, in my opinion, has seriously under achieved on his previous visits to Owlerton. 9 from 5 rides in the Sean Cracker and 3 paid 4 earlier this year for Wolves. Admittedly he would have to have a serious off night not to finish in the top 4 of this meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in saaying that he has the credentials to put on a good performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Third Man Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Think they may be waiting on a few injured riders to see how they are. but then sheffield are never that fast at confirming line ups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanisnumber1 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Any one got a full and confirmed line up. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There is just one rider to be named but he maybe not be known till fans get there on Thursday due to not knowing who will be riding in re-arranged matched in Poland and Sweden!! Havelock, Lindgren, Stead, Johnston, Compton, Stancl, Lyons, Ashworth, Woffinden, Complin, Parsons, Harrison, Kerr, Sanchez, Zorro Stancl could be a doubt tho!!

buxton-babe Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 looks a great line up and im sure this will be a meeting nobody will forget in a hurry! fingers crossed the rain stays off! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerblues Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 I've just read the KL V Brum thread for tomorrow and noticed Sanchez is a doubt for then, could have missed an update on him but does anyone know if he is fit or not? Going to be tough finding replacements at this stage but fingers crossed the line-up stays as good as it is now, I doubt there will be any riders who would turn this down.

BobC Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 (edited) Well,I will be coming up for this meeting,all the way from sunny Poole.Watch out all you Northern souls that might have offended the mighty Rabbit.She will be there too!! Cant be arsed with paying out lots of money to see a GP abroad.Rather put some money into the pocket of one of our sports so called 'lesser lights'. Ive always been of fan of TEAM speedway,rather than individual glory.Garry epitomises that for me.Every team needs a 'Garry'. Wouldnt miss this for anything.Fingers crossed for good weather. See you all there on Thursday. Edited August 21, 2007 by BobC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emiliano crashed heavily at Newport on sunday..ambulance was called for attendance but he did eventually walk back to the pits under his own steam. Guess we wont know how fit he is till either he turns up at Kings Lynn or even till he wakes up Thursday morning having suffered no side effects etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazysue Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Is there anyone going to this who would be able to text updates to the updates site (our texter decided to go on holiday this week!), if you can help, can you please either leave a message here or send me an email or pm. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyHart Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Well looks like the big name promised has arrived with paul cooper taking the last spot,what happened to the massive name to add numbers to the turnstile's,fair enough options may have been limited but paul cooper for christ's sake.

marron Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I think there will be a big crowd anyway. I don't think everyone is going just to watch the riders but mostly to support Steady. Still a very good field and it should be a very good night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
