whistlegang Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 We need Compton back like yesterday. Stoke have some real quality in arrears where we have close to nothing. I think we need some changes in the squad already. The track looked decent until heat 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heathen1984 Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 Changes already. Give them chance, all Kent supporters were all going on how you had a chance of winning the league. Relax a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waco Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) Stokes strenght in depth proved to much for the kings over the 10 heats raced ,,,Though Ben Morley 2 wins from 2 had another poss 3 rides to come and with Simon Lambert looking more like himself this week with another 2 rides available and David Mason also scoring well we may have pulled it of in the last 5 races had it been possible to run them..But in all honesty the RR for Benji Compton cost us dear and will im afraid continue to do so over the next few meetings, as Luke Chessel is not really firing on all cylinders ,don,t know why, he is capable of better...And young Luke Harris struggled in the wet conditions today but over all is doing all that can be expected of him and will continue to improve..Also missing Brandon Freemantle hopefully he is back soon ..By contrast Stokes reserves looked very strong ,,Cris Widman too is an improved rider on previous seasons,, With a top end of Ben Wilson,Ben,Hopwood and Jon Armstrong they are a usefull outfit and i would expect them to be right up there challenging for a top four place this season ...The track was a big improvement this week and despite the wet conditions rode well untill a heavy shower curtailed the meeting... Nice to meet up with my ol,mate Malcolm Vasey ,who no doubt will enjoy working with a good team of riders this year...

MrMungo Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 You can't expect poor ol' Gary Chessell to score that many, Waco. The chap must be over 50 by now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montie Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 ..But in all honesty the RR for Benji Compton cost us dear and will im afraid continue to do so I never quite get my head around having RR in the National League---Im sure it would be better to give someone some laps 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waco Posted May 13, 2014 Report Share Posted May 13, 2014 (edited) I agree Monty reducing the number of riders is not good for speedway in any meeting,, but to the promoters one less rider to pay travelling expenses too,, and in some cases weakens a team dramatically,,in others strengthens the team,, In Kents case the former applies ... The one plus point of course is extra rides for some and increased earnings.. Edited May 13, 2014 by waco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
