markyb Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 After the unfortunate weather for the last home meeting, and for me to say never again, am so much looking forward to tonights encounter with isle Of Wight. My 7 year old daughter is smitten by young Ryan Terry-Daley (has his photo as her I-phone home screen) so she pleased he is riding for the Storm tonight. Track hopefully will be in pristine condition - and the weather will hopefully bring out speedway fans in plentiful numbers. For 10 quid, where else do you get so good entertainment these days ? And the free kids is a massive marketing ploy too. Interested to see Adam Ellis and how good he really is ? Although Storm have greta talent for the future too. After last nights debacle with the GB world cup team, my god do we need talented British riders !! Cheers Mark 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fliss44 Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 My first visit to see the Storm team ride and am really looking forward to it. Will there be standing space in the stadium? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markyb Posted July 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) Just back from a thoroughly entertaining meeting, so it took 2 hours, but for once it was great to be outside for that amount of time. Worthy win for Isle of Wight and Adam Elllis exceptional talent. His winning time in heat 9 was 61.8 seconds, a new national league record. For Storm, some fearless riding from Olly Greenwood and James Sergeant. Only slight negative was Robert Branford throwing his dummy out of his pram (not for the first time though !) Purposely rode his bike into the air fence, fully upright, after being relegated to third at the end of heat 13 leaving it wedged (still upright) in the fence. Could see a member of the track staff was as angry as I felt about it too. Grow up Branford !!!!!! You only British under 21 champion and not world champion. Stop acting like a prima Donna.

chopper Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 No excuses but he may have been frustrated at getting his second flat tyre for the night and costing coventry a chance of a win.I will tell him to not give a s--t next time , he cares about his team is that a crime.

junior fan Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 Wright wasn't eligible to replace Perry as his average is higher as I understand the rules. Junior Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeilWatson Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) Wright wasn't eligible to replace Perry as his average is higher as I understand the rules. Junior Charles Wright's guest appearance was quite legitimate. Once his new average comes into force he will not be eligible to guest for any NL team!

Long Eye Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 Charles Wright's guest appearance was quite legitimate.
