Rikkay Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 The final rider is John Branney who, after last weekend, will be very welcome at Newcastle. Â Here's to a good evenings racing where I can enjoy the night without the worry of getting my maths right!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevePark Posted September 27, 2008 Report Share Posted September 27, 2008 that's not quite what i was getting at jack, but thanks anyway! and yeah, looking forward to it. Â the Sheffield based rider incidentally is ben wilson - i'll add his name into the press release now - didn't know it hadn't been... Â I hope you don't think that I was getting at you or Rick, I wasn't. I just thought that you would have the line up and you could have enlightened us, obviously this wasn't the case. Again, apologies if you thought I was getting at yourselves, I really wasn't, you have done a fantastic job in 2008 and long may it continue for years to come.

pablo133 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 (edited) no disrespect to john branney but hes hardly a name to attract a crowd another joke of a meeting which will probably be poorly attended, and not surprisingly looking at the field put together Edited September 28, 2008 by pablo133 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemo Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Yeah John Branney is riding and Craig Branney is reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Diamond Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Not a great lineup but hopefully some good racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 (edited) I'll be there. It is speedway without the pressure of League points at stake and a chance to see our Diamonds, Carl, Proctor, Kerr, Wilson, John B again and the return of Craig. Still plenty for me and a meeting to enjoy, another chance to see Kenni and it is beautiful weather. Get in there.

Gaz Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 A decent meeting tonight, Well done to Pepe, Christian and Kenni! Â John Branney was tremendous, lets hope our promotion can sign him to help Jerran in the reserve birth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diamond@heart Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Another great performance by Kenni who appears to get better week by week (when he is not riding like a women ). Very impressed by John Branney and I think he would make a god addition to the Diamonds next year. Good to see Craig Branney back on a bike and he rode well and did well to pick himself up from his fall. Â Format of this meeting annoyed me and think it should have been 16 riders and then this would have meant that some riders did not have to face each other 3 times (Proctor and Larsen, Hart and Sanchez). Hopefully the next individual will have a better lineup and a better format. Â Still a good meeting nd as mentioned another good performance by Larsen (Get him signed for next year) and another good performance by Proctor. Â Don't think Pepe and Christian have do enough to hold onto team places for next year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allfourback Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Funny how Pepe always does well in matches were averages don't count. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike7164 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Funny how Pepe always does well in matches were averages don't count. How right you are there it was almost like the old Pepe also Note before anyone says anything accusing me of not giving praise to Mr Henry he also rode a few races well but sadly though once again was beaten by John Branny who was brill IMHO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Hannibal Thomas Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 due to the track blade going missing the track was obv a bit of a mess judging by the riders flying all over the place in some heats. Â i think it was a decent meeting given the circumstances and no prima donnas in the line up. Â well done to pepcoracing on his win. Â henry, larsen, john branney deserve honourable mentions, it has became apparent that without john branney in diamonds colours 2009 that the sun will not shine brightly upon beautiful brough.

John Hannibal Thomas Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 So are all the others dropping there averages to? As none of our riders are setting the league alight Yes I think our team are nice and dropping points to help the promotion out through the credit crunch. Â the riders dont need to earn points money as they are all rich beyond their wildest dreams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearsayjay Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Oh dear someone must have a different opinion to Gaz.Cant have that now can we? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearsayjay Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Personally i dont want Either Franc or Henry in the team next year but i dont make the decisions. Â King Larsen J Branney theres a start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Well done Johnny B. Also good to see Craig among the points. John showing a lot of potential now, it will be an interesting winter to see who will get in the Comets side for 2009. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
