Brummie Kev Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Even though I dont know what will be the Bulls line -up, I am quite looking forward to this. Stoke are having a great season and had a sensational win at Dudley last night. They should be a good for our side to face, whoever we might have. I would hope we are using a few of our assets, so pehaps Hargreaves and Ben Taylor may be riding. Hopefuilly the team will have can push Stoke hard for the win and we get some good racing. Just a quick question, I notice this challenge is over two legs. The return on the Birmingham site it says Saturday 24th Septemebr at Loomer Road but on the Stoke site it has it as 'TBC'. Will the second leg be on the 24th. Come on the Bulls!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsloes 1928 nearly Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 I'm in Brum tomorrow and taking the opportunity to catch up with the all-conquering Potters whilst there... Some indication on what kind of line up the Bulls are putting out would be kinda nice... Sawthe Bulls vs. USA earlier this year and the one to seven was: Jack Hargreaves, Tom Perry, Tim Webster, Brendan Johnson, Paul Starke,Ben Reade, Darryl Ritchings. Obviously a couple of those (Tim & Ben) are in fact in the Potters' ranks but does this give any clue as to the likely line up at the Barr tomorrow..?

21st century heathen Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 I was thinking that. Stoke are so strong that surely they could give someone a chance at reserve and promote Isherwood to the top 5? Even without Lambert (why's he missing?) Stoke have 3 riders in heat leader form, arguably 4 as Sarj is going well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukes Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Think you will find Simon Lambert is riding for Sheffield against Plymouth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChubbyChesgire Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Birmingham site says its Rob Smith instead of Paul Starke and Simon Lambert R/R for Stoke. Yes Potters one says that now too. The comment says likely will have to use R/R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century heathen Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 So there isn't a single rider free that fancies a run out in this challenge? Would like to see 7 v 7 please!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P T Preece Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Pathic, can get a seven man team for a challenge meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OGT Posted August 25, 2011 Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 Pathic, can get a seven man team for a challenge meeting. I think you typed that in a temper, mate!! Bloody typical, off nightshift for the first time in weeks and the EL home fixtures have finished!! And now one of the teams in tonight's meaningless challenge is using the bane of modern speedway, the dreaded RR. Mmm, Emmerdale looks good tonight.

Brummie Kev Posted August 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2011 (edited) I dont know why people are moaning, its only £10 for godsake. Stoke decide to use R/R at number 1, so what, that is their problem and I for one am looking foward to cheering on the Bulls. Its good to have something different to the Elite League and the young riders need our support. Get yourselves down there.
