Mimmo Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Good luck 'Young Stars', oh how I wish I could be there today, but alas it's not possible. If ever the National League could throw up an exciting feast of speedway, then it gets no better than this, and I hope that the fans of the Manchester club turn out in large numbers to support it. Not only are you going to see the riders who finished 1st & 2nd in last nights NLRC, namely Jason Garrity and Kyle Howarth in the Red, White & Black of the Belle Vue 'Colts', but you're also going to be showered with some of the best riders in the business representing the other two clubs. Malcolm Vasey has built a side that is the envy of most, and hats off to him for that (although I hope he keeps his firmly in place so as to cover up the shiny bonce). Simon Lambert is now producing the best form of his career, slipping in paid or paid maximums most places he rides. Jaimie Pickard and James Sarjeant have reached new personal levels, and so the list goes on. A really exciting and forceful team indeed, with the double (League & Cup) still being a distinct possibilty. Dale Allitt and his charges have made the pundits who said King's Lynn would prop the rest of the league up, look idiots. Even though they lost big hitters Darren Mallett and Adam Lowe to season long injuries early doors, they've still shown a clean pair of heels to many. Although without Kyle Hughes and possibly James Cockle (he was missing from the Plymouth team at Berwick last night) this afternoon, the big man from Boston will have dug deep to find suitable replacements. Every year this marvellous league throws up a gem or two, and 2011 is no different with the rapidly emerging talent of Snettisham based Lewis Kerr. Topped the Young Stars scorechart a week ago last Wednesday, notching his first ever maximum from the reserve berth. The Norfolk club are still in the hunt for a play-off spot, so points for them today are of a great necessity along with anything they can gain at Dudley on Tuesday. That just leaves the away fixture at Newport to come for them, and they desperately need the Welsh club to offer them a date prior to next weekends cut-off date, otherwise that could scupper their chance of taking their place in the play-offs, and that wouldn't be fair. So good luck everybody, I hope you all end the afternoon with what you want, and that it's an injury free day for the riders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halifaxtiger Posted September 5, 2011 Report Share Posted September 5, 2011 Why didn't Jake ride today? My understanding is that he has work commitments for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
