Dave Stummings Posted June 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 It would appear the rains haven't come to save Rye House from being thumped at home tonight. Can't see many people going either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadders Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I'm on the South Coast. Not sure if I'll make it back in time, or even if I want to!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westhamboy66 Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Perhaps a low crowd and a massive defeat is what needs to happen. Sick of the way the last few seasons have gone, my major enjoyment has always been following the Rockets away from home but this load of dross isn't worth the effort. Even with a full strength side at Somerset last night we might have struggled to thirty five. Fed up with hearing about the mechanical issues surrounding Steve Boxall and i am very disappointed with the eleven which is really nine from five rides from Kennett, not acceptable from a rider who should be averaging over ten. With the heavy away defeats along with the loss at home to the mob from up the road Silver will be lucky to get a few hundred in the meetings coming up. Despite annual optimism i give up just as the team have to being two heat leaders short of a decent team. no fun for the money at the moment 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockets Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I'm in putney at the moment and it's absolutely hissing down such that I put my arm bands and flippers on just to go get a paper. If this hits rye it will definitely be off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonsDen Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 Didn't see Len Silver at Somerset last night, so he may have been at Rye House flooding the track in case the promised heavy rain doesn't materialise. There is a quote from him about last night on the Rye website which suggests he was there - I expect a later than normal call-off which will piss even more people off!

Shadders Posted June 7, 2014 Report Share Posted June 7, 2014 I was only in the pits for a short while, he must've been in the bar. I'm currently in Bournemouth, the suns out here. Hoping to race back in time for the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If WHB has given up hope things must be REALLY bad! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
