Tsunami Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Well Sunday should see the first silverware of the PL decided with the second leg of the Premiership Trophy. Will Rebels bring a big lead from tonights meeting at Somerset, or will it be all to play for with a reasonable deficit to overcome. Should be a good meeting between two competitive teams, if previous meetings are an indicator. Looking forward to it. Can sheeter's note that sheeting is planned for 3.00pm, and hoping that there is a reasonable number left at the end of the meeting to pick them back up. It really is important, as the more the merrier and, the easier the job is for everyone. Hope to see you all there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacca Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Tie decided already I think. If Somerset can't defend that score they'll want shooting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gusworld Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 A shock 25 point deficit for the Diamonds to overcome. No margin for error now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted April 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 As others have said, I think the deficit from Fridays meeting is going to be just too much for us to overcome, although I do think that we will get a decent win. Friday was a bad day at the office for too many Diamonds, and I think there will be a smart reversal of both teams performances tonight. A good competitive meeting with no injuries will do, as we say goodbye to a trophy that we have recently had a good relationship with. I think we have better performers around our track, but it will be interesting to see how the Danish lad performs. Big performance on Friday with paid 15, but I don't expect to see that sort of score from him tonight. Let's hope the celebration of the Rebels promotion is a bit more respectable in their moment of glory. Should be a good meeting. Reminder that we need every sheeter to stay behind and pick the sheets up after the meeting. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arson fire Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 If we continue to throw away point after point from scoring positions or daft falls then we will get beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starman2006 Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Can you believe it, racing haulted due to setting sun, the only thing we have in Dorset is setting rain.. Nice lead for the Rebels.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's happened a couple of times at Berwick, if only we could find a way to stop the sun setting in the west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhoundp Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Good win for the Rebels, taking both legs.. Impressed with Paul Starkes input so far.. Yes, Starkie can gate thats his forte, whereas Tom P couldnt and cant. Paul is a good team man to have around, never going to be a world beater, but can definately throw a spanner in the works against some of the bigger names, he is showing a good improvement on his average so far, and i would imagine the management are well pleased with his showing so far, keep it up Starkie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starke did a reasonable job while at Newcastle a couple of seasons ago, and a more than decent job at Berwick last year. Somerset could've pulled off a very shrewd signing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted April 6, 2014 Report Share Posted April 6, 2014 Thoroughly deserved win for the Rebels. A bit of bad luck for the Diamonds with Kerr and Rosen suffering major engine problems and having Lindgren at #1. The consistency required of a #1 is just not in his make up.
