MattyHart Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 There was a rider Weymouth(?) wanted to sign called Tom Armstrong, maybe its the same person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squall Posted September 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 There was a rider Weymouth(?) wanted to sign called Tom Armstrong, maybe its the same person. Could be then. Everyone I've asked hasn't heard of him and Sheffield are known for giving out false names, eg. Ty Barber and Rody Namone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montie Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 good line up coming together here,will be coming over to the owl hut for this one,looking forward to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boz Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Both Worrals looked good at the Redcar individual a few weeks ago, along with Branford and Birks got better as the night wore on. Disappointed Garrity pulled out but by all accounts he is very exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 There was a rider Weymouth(?) wanted to sign called Tom Armstrong, maybe its the same person. If it is, Sheffield fans are in for a laugh. He was hillerious when he did some laps at Coventry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I think I may wander down for this one. Is it normal admission prices? Its was last year, so I would imagine that it will be this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerowl Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Just got back. It was the usual Top Gun event with the lads giving it their all and perhaps over riding somewhat at times. The night was marred by several hair raising crashes and best wishes to the four lads hurt - James Sarjeant, Jordan Tyrer, Jason Garrity and Greg Blair. If anyone's interested, here are my thoughts on the 16 riders tonight. Steven Worrall - who says there are no young Brits coming through? Massive improvement and as steady a performance as you will see from anyone at this level. I really rate him and Scunthorpe have done well to sign him up. Richie Worrall - like his brother, making great strides and will be up to the level Steven is now in a few months Jason Garrity - took a big crash in his third race but looked steady enough until then. In the race he crashed he came down the home straight and into the first turn really tight. I was expecting him to hit the second bend fence but he held it beautifully on the white line all the way round and it was a shame he ran into Greg Blair a lap or so later. His throttle only seems to go one way but this lad can really ride. Adam Wrathall - looked good when he made the gate and seemed as fast as anyone when out in front Gary Irving - a worthy winner, good to watch and combined a steadiness with his usual brand of spectacular racing. Jordan Tyrer - only lasted three laps, if that, so not in a position to comment Ashley Birks - very impressed with Ashley for a first season rider. Not as smooth as Steven Worrall but not afraid to go looking for different lines. Another great prospect. James Sarjeant - was riding well until he was knocked off, well on the pace. Brendan Johnson - I'm not sure if Brendan's ridden at Owlerton before and he seemed a bit slow. Nice style though. Kyle Howarth - I was a bit disappointed with Kyle but I suppose that shows how much he has come on this year. He was consistent but I thought he would be in the top three. Robert Branford - great to watch and should have had more than nine but for a poor first ride and bike trouble in his fourth. I think he'll go a long way. Adam McKinna - stylish and fast when he gates but lacks something when at the back in my opinion. Just come back from a big injury so that's understandable. Jamie Pickard - the surprise packet of the night for me. Plugged away around the inside all night and got plenty of drive from there. Very impressive. Greg Blair - looked fast and it was a great shame when he got wiped out in the last bend in his third ride. Set for a rostrum pace before then. Paul Starke -struggled with his bikes all night, so it would be unfair to judge him on this performance. Tom Armstrong - it may have been the same Tom Armstrong that SCB saw at Coventry but he was sensational tonight. Excluded (and rightly so) for knocking off young James Sarjeant, but raced hard all night and could have won it. He looks a bit like Michael Lee on the bike and looks a great prospect for some lucky club next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
montie Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) Well done to all the scunny lads, a great one/two for the saints Really pleased Gary Irving got himself a title before the season closes,really deserved it for his pure entertainment he has given this year at scunny Fair play to Sheffield for putting on this meeting for these young lads to have a go too,shame there isnt more of these type of meetings Just gutted i couldnt make it Edited September 16, 2010 by montie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopper Posted September 16, 2010 Report Share Posted September 16, 2010 Well done to sheffield for putting the meeting on. Pity it didnt get to run its full conclusion because of the time restraints. Hope all the riders that fell are ok,and those that still have meetings to race are fit. One ammendment to the score not that it mattered in the end was Robert did not get excluded when he pushed home. Cheers Chopper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks a bit like Michael Lee on the bike and looks a great prospect for some lucky club next season. Sounds like the same guy, quite tall? Fair play to him. He was very unimpressive at Coventry, he was unable to turn the bike. Maybe he was having bike problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
