A BIG thank you to the Mildenhall promotion for agreeing to come to Newport this Saturday (August 6th) for our NL clash. With no PL opposition able to switch dates the fixture became available so Mildenhall were approached to come and agreed ... so the Hornets take centre stage on Saturday under lights with a 7pm start.

Really dissapointed I cannot make this one, especially after last nights performance at Dudley!

 

I assume it will be R/R for both sides with both Brendan Johnson and Joe Jacobs on international duty in Sweden?

 

Hopefully Mark Baseby will be fit, and if Cameron Heeps takes to the Newport track like he did the Wolverhampton one I can see a second away victory in a week for the Fen Tigers :approve:

Heeps looked class tonight but at times a little wild ! Also needs to learn how to team ride, twice he almost wiped out his partner. Blackbird wasn't happy with his after heat 4.

 

Not sure why the Baseby brothers went after Matt Bates after heat 14 though, I didn't see anything wrong from where i was stood. Then everyone piled in and someone from Mildenhall decided to throw a helmet at one of the Newport mechanics!

Was Crazy.

I wouldn't expect a fifteen year old to know how to team ride! Kurtz looks like he has turned a corner this year, has started to put in some decent scores for the Wasps. Reckon he will blossom in 2012.

Ye that's true, but in 2 of his races he steamed under his partner almost taking them off.

Disgraceful scenes, and disturbing to note how long it took to bring the situation under control. No-one seemed capable of doing so. A bad advert for Speedway in general, and for my own club's apparent inability to police a volatile situation. Added to which, the Ref was slow to get involved, as he was to use the red stop lights in two races! Shame it spoiled an otherwise good meeting.
