Iow Wightlink Islanders V Buxton Hitmen 20/8


Recommended Posts

Yes at the moment these two Teams are battling for 4th place in the play offs, Though were they to win the meetings in hand that could become 2nd place, there is a big imbalance in meetings ridden so far. On form its looking like Dudley, Mildenhall, with Kings Lynn, IOW, and Buxton scrapping for the 2 other play off places. If IOW were to lose this meeting (which i dont expect) then pressure would really come on them to win some away meetings. Buxton still have to ride against Dudley Home and away.

 

Coventry have 1 meeting left to ride, thats at home against Dudley, when they have finished there fixtures, are there riders able to sign for other Teams ? as i recall this happening in years past, this could have a big effect on Teams come Play Off time.

Buxton give a debut to Lee Smart. Boxall guests for Perry.
Good to see Lee is trying to rediscover his old form at Buxton, has Stevie B booked a holiday on the Island ? :wink: good rider, and a great guest. Edited by greyhoundp

A good win for the Islanders and the final score doesn't indicate how hard it was to get a win after Ben Hopwood withdrew from the meeting with a shoulder injury. Hope it is not too serious.

Good riding from all the team but Brendan's riding deserved more than his 3. He was denied another paid 2nd when he punctured when in a safe 3rd place. Great guest in Steve Boxall and Adam Ellis seems to be back to his best.
