Parsloes 1928 nearly Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Don,t like the idea of play-offs,if a team is at the top of the league at the end of the season. they should be champions,not the other teams below them, anyway will be going to this meeting, going for the potters to win by 10- 15 points, and it looks like another beautiful day in the potteries. COME ON THE POTTERS. Â I 100% agree but each time I have expressed such a view on here a certain person who's now the Potters TM has torn me limb from metaphorical limb for so doing... Let's hope he doesn't regret such a position after this latest exercise... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Let's face it speedway is so flush with funds, that it can easily afford to sacrifice the additional income on the altar of outdated thinking and antipathy!!!

neil3065 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 (edited) Given the pattern of results in previous matches between these two at West Row this season, Mildenhall will need to keep the score within ten points tonight, to have a realistic chance of progression to the final. Â Hopefully talk of their improved form at Loomer Road in the 4's, from that of the league match can come to the fore tonight. They've struggled away against the better sides in the league this season, so hopefully they can improve on that tonight. In many ways the key will be filling in behind Lambert for shared heats, and taking full advantage of the heats he is not in. Â Realistically, it'll be a very tall order for Mildenhall to keep to within 10 points of Stoke tonight. If they do manage it, they will have ridden very, very well.

vog Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Ok, let's start with Stoke's team. Â We lost our heads. Simple as that. Lambert and Pickard were fantastic at 1 and 2, and Reade showed us why we should never have dropped him in the correct way. He was fantastic. Â Isherwood made one gate, and that was about it. Â The other 3 were poor, and I have no idea why. The normally reliable Atkin was alright for 2 rides, and poor for 2. Sarjeant looked like he wanted to be anywhere but Stoke, and Webster seemed to have a nightmare of it. We threw it away, and it will take a miracle to pull anything back. Â Secondly, and I apologise for the smell of grapes that aren't too sweet, but how can Cameron Heeps ride for Mildenhall? You can't claim British Citizenship under patriality rules until you are 17. That's a set in stone fact. Therefore, he must have an Australian passport, therefore he isn't eligable to ride in the NL for 2 more years! I just want a straight answer, but I fear I will never get one. Â Still, here's hoping for a miracle, and Stoke winning 46-44 tomorrow with Rambo winning a run off to put us through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jennywren Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Â You can't claim British Citizenship under patriality rules until you are 17. That's a set in stone fact. Incorrect - you can claim patriality in two ways - firstly via an ancestry visa (british grandparents and you have to be 17+) and secondly via a settlement visa (if you have a parent with a british passport and there is no age limit for this one). In both cases British citizenship is not automatic and in fact the holder of a settlement visa is nearer to applying for it than the holder of an ancestry visa. - the UKBA will verify this if you need further clarification.

Â Settlement visa's require you to have been living within the UK for 2+ years before application though (And, for Ancestary, after 5 years) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embarrasment to stoke  Is booing that bad? Really? Bit of pantomime!  As for cheering when riders fall, never good. I cheered when Blackbird got back up in 14 but thats about it!

Heathen1984 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Haha you cheered because u were on a 5-1 maybe, cant believe reade never got excluded for knockin baseby off in that heat. Obviously i never went to last weeks meeting but you could see there was baf blood between the teams. Well rode mildy deserved win but no way is it over yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well rode mildy deserved win but no way is it over yet The ref called the Baseby incident correct, Reade never touched him he just spooked him and Baseby shut off which straightend him up he then started to run out of track and bailed off,Baseby did'nt show any problem with the decision either.
