Rye V Plymouth Sat 9th June


Recommended Posts

Well after years of foolishly supporting Len Silver i think i have seen the light. We left the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu to watch that load of trpie last night at Somerset and wasted a load of money in the process

Olly Allen woke up after the meeting was well lost, had an awful start. 5/10 for effort

Andres Mellgren dodgy first ride then was excellent. Silly mistake for the tape touching but was that fast that he could have beat Doyle all night 8/10

Jason Bunyan started real fast with plenty of effort but tailed off may still be unfit 6/10

Robert Mear...why bother, not at the races, when he did gate looked like he was riding a dog 1/10

Tyson Nelson track made for him seemed to be trying too hard intitially then just evaporated and rode like novice 2/10

Kasper Lykke seemed fast enough but one race apart he was never on the right part of the track at the right time 3/10

Simon Lambert, no way is the boy fit (that i know) on a track where he should score well he was way too tentative 2/10

John Samford...mr motivator gave the black and white to Allen who looked poor in his first race, no surprise when he trailed in a poor last. I know he comes cheap but why bother with a team manager

Len Silver far too much on your plate, too much interest in Kent while he obviously feels Rye will bob along on its own

A win against Plymouth on the cards as they will be understrength but never haver have i been so disgusted in an away performance, well not for a long time anyway.

With Josh Bates in for Bech and doubts over Mark Lemon's fitness, we should win this. I wouldn't put any money on it though.

Going tonight and bringing my mother-in-law to her first ever Speedway meeting - she invited herself. If its a bad one at least there will be a small silver lining in that it will put her off coming again :D .

 

Only my 3rd meeting this year due to weddings and holidays, will miss Sheffield next week too, so hope its a good one tonight and the boys have sorted out their mojos.

How about in 2012 when first PL match was ridden with R/R for Jordan Frampton, Guest for Chris Neath and either guest or late signing for Nelson (Can't remember which) ??? Not the best of starts to a season.

 

You don't have to remind us it was not the best of start, Chris is still suffering the cosequences but I am sure he would give any thing to be on track with the boys.

Neathy is sorely missed Noel, especially on nights like this.

 

Another shocker tonight. Three 1-5's at the end was hard to take when it looked like we were cruising ten points up. Ok, losing Olly was a huge blow, but we should've been out of sight with at least one decent reserve. Once again it cost us.

 

Bitterly cold and dragged on way too long. Mellgren had one bad ride when it mattered, Lambert had several. Mear looks ordinary, disinterested. Nelson still looking like he's over trying. Something's not right there. Putting him at 4 has been a disaster. He can't ride with Anders, that's plain to see.

Problems on the second bend with too many riders having trouble with the exit.

Problematical times for Rye House speedway. Looks like the GP and a kebab for us next Saturday. I can't take much more of this.

Sounds like a shocker, have to admit I just couldn't get the enthusiasm to go and see the same opposition again, stayed in and watched the Pairs from Poland. You get the feeling, though, that heads will continue to be buried in the sand with Len continuing to back a lame horse team. The price is being paid of not replacing Bunyan and Lambert when they were injured, and having to rush them back before they looked ready (I expect the same with Garrity). The saddening part is that there was a real chance to have a competitive team if Garrity had have been at reserve from the start.

 

Also the meetings dragging out is a good point and is becoming an unwelcome habit.

Glad I stayed away tonight. Not going back til Garrity returns. Not spending my money on an ego going through the motions.

 

As I've said on another thread, when Garrity is fit get him back in with Roynon and show Mear and Lambert the door. Harsh on Lambert as he's been injured but can't be sentimental. Roynon gives his all when he races and it would put Garrity at reserve most importantly.

Shame about the track - bumpy, dusty and one line - Tyson and Kasper found it hard to overtake. Can someone tell me why Tyson Nelson couldn't ride in the nominated heat with Anders? - The announcer said that there was only Anders and the Mearcat available!
