TMW Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) It's a track most the Lions look like they usually ride well, i think we would have been in wiith a shout with Bjerre and Branford in the team. If no ill effects for Nieminen then i'd say Doolan top scorer and 8 point win for Berwick with Kennett winning all his races by half the length of the straight at least. If Nieiminen is feeling his way then Berwick by 14. Dissenter.................. public flogging is too good for some people Edited May 11, 2013 by TMW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post bigeddiechek Posted May 11, 2013 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh. My faith in speedway has been promptly restored. That is one of the best meetings I have seen for a very long time. 18 passes. I noted them all. Kennett, as expected, was markedly at a different level to the rest of the riders. The way he shepherded Barrett round in heat 6 was effortless. His pass on Niemenen in heat 13 just superb. A greasy track in heat 1 robbed him of what would have been the easiest paid max in the history of the sport. Aspegren: decided to jump into life half way through the meeting and started to look like the classy rider that we saw last season. Much,much better, and he looked to be enjoying himself a lot more. Wethers: just superb, hope he is OK after pushing a bit too hard in heat 15. He was worth the admission fee on his own. Kozza: getting back to his very best, the way he reeled Karlsson in heat 4 was sensational. Starke: what can you say? He demolished the opposition number 1 who was on a tactical rider Barrett: again showing what a tremendous talent and prospect he is. Leicester came and gave a good account of themselves, and it is always a pleasure to see Kevin Doolan at Shielfield. They were just unfortunate that they came on an evening when the Bandits were red hot and razor sharp. If the Sky meeting is as good as this, I reckon they will ditch the Elite League in favour of the PL. Questions have been asked over the past few weeks and, my goodness, they were not half answered this evening. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emilali Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Good result for Berwick, nice to see all team members getting in amongst the point, good debuts for Starke and Eddie, well done the rest of the guys as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wandersome Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) Well done to Berwick. Did Kennett have any noticable effect on the gate tonight? Although i'm still sceptical as to the money thing, I really do hope he has the desired effect. Edited May 11, 2013 by volty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC67 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 What a difference a week makes , from the lows of last weekend to tonight, all the riders looked keen and they were all chipping in with wins. Paul Starke's win in ht 11 was fantastic especially with the added pressure of Kozza going off a 15 metre handicap ,.Robin seems to have found his mojo again and looked like the rider we know he is had genuine speed tonight and looked up for the fight, maybe dropping Alex and bringing in Eddie has given them the proverbial kick up the backside whatever it was its worked , also IMHO that's the best the tracks been all year 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjm Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 That was superb. Every Bandit was excellent. Kennets pass in heat 13, just a class above Starke making himself an instant hero Kozza, mental Aspegren, classy Barrett, a talent Wethers, great 'twas most enjoyable 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigeddiechek Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 The most impressive thing is that we did this with r/r for the in-form Bellegeo. One's mind boggles at what the meeting would have been like with Va Va Voom riding. Bring on the Diamonds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinh88 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Bit of an over reaction by some. That said it was a good meeting and a vast improvement, seemed to be a lot more bite in the surface a lot more for the riders to work with. Everyone chipped in which was pleasing. Leicester also missed Bjerre who I am confident could have beaten any of the home riders equally could have Bellego. Much better though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinh88 Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 Leicester bar Nemo and Doolan were awful, as I said Berwick did well and closed the meeting out. I think the rain pre meeting helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
