HadrianDog Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Certainly had one 'whinger' in my vicinity, but most-me included- saw it as a good meeting. On the telly to the neutral viewer, it would have been at least a semi-classic, but for the stoppages. Given the words from George and Robbo in the programme though, they have doubts about our track surface. Has todays work rectified it I wonder. In my mind our 'home track advantage' has been nullified to date by the winter alterations, albeit with the right intentions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 How was the track? There have been a few grumbles about it this year. Â As a neutral last Sunday I thought it was an excellent meeting, on a decent track, there was passing and riders could race each other. No better example of that was Danny King in Ht13, going off 15m he passed one Ipswich rider and was hot on the heels of the other by the end.

Big Diamond Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Hope track helps home advantage for rest of the season especially for Ludvig and Robbo as we need more race wins but both struggling to pass. However sunday was a great meeting and vital win to end the poor home run especially with monarchs next who will expect 4 points. On the peformances King was excellent as was Kerr. At reserve Mills got stuck in and proved that a few reserve points and you might win, but Greenwood of the pace which is a concern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I think George will be waiting for next month and hoping King, Lindgren, Rose, Schramm and Robson average all drop a little. So he can swap Greenwood with someone who will push Rose back to the reserves and have a decent number 2. So the team will then look like this; Â 1. King 2. Random number 2! 3. Robbo 4. Kerr 5. Ludvig 6. Schrammy 7. Rose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope so anyway  If we brought in Claes would his average remain 6.20 or could we get it reduced for some reason?   Diamonds Iv just realised who the best NL rider is without a PL Team place, its Ben Morley thats the man you need up there.

To me he did nothing wrong, having a fantastic end to the 2012 season. For some reason it appears he was not wanted by the management!

I think he was wanted but; Â He was too expensive for flights and stuff George couldn't fit him into the team I would love him to come back because after Robbo he was my favourite rider that season.

Â Cant see him being any more expensive to fly in than Rosen. As for not fitting. Well to me that was only because they wanted THB in instead.

THB?  And Rosen stayed with Lindgren and had his own bikes and I think he shared Lindgren's mechanics/facilities  Claes had none of this (I think) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does THB even mean Tully?  Plus next year I wouldn't mind seeing Tully and Claes back  What are the chances of Tully coming back early and coming into the team now to free up some of the points in the main body?

As to the rest- Tully-yes, if fully fit and Claes would always be in my team given that his form has remained at 2012 levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadrianDog Posted May 28, 2014 Report Share Posted May 28, 2014 He was the lean mean racing machine wasn't he? Â Only in the latter part of the season. Prior to that and an element of miss-givens re. Tully himself he was announced as THB. As an aside here,. Question your nick-name and it is very much a bye- bye to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
