Dave Stummings Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Recon Rye House will start as underdogs here. Expecting all the usual excuses from Hinge & Bracket. How in earth Silver can say his team are giving a 100%, what poppy cock. Feel like I'm taking over from Chris here on this forum, who incidenty has been rather quite over the last few months, perhaps he no longer, like many others just can't be bothered to go to Rye!

Feel like I'm taking over from Chris here on this forum, who incidenty has been rather quite over the last few months, perhaps he no longer, like many others just can't be bothered to go to Rye! Gave up giving a toss a long time ago Dave. Silver has seen me off I'm afraid. Â I'll comeback when he's gone but I won't pay to watch the rubbish he puts out on the cheap every year. No thank you. The Jason Doyle incident when he basically told the fans to F off was the final straw for me, although I have been moaning for years about the old codger. I have noticed recently even the silver backers are saying exactly what I was 3/4 years ago. Â This Tressarieu debacle this weekend with no facility for a poxy grass track meeting sums the club up.

The last thing we need is a replay though . What has Theo been up to ? Ben Hopwood at 2 and still no confirmation of our number 7. Options limited due to the NL Pairs at MildenhallPijper went down on bend 2 of heat 13, looked up and saw the Rockets on a 5-1, then made a feeble effort to lift his bike. In the rerun you can guess what happened. A home 5-1 turned into a 3-3. Could be vital, but I doubt 14 points wouldn't have been enough. Once yous get a lead I can see us capitulating.

Falcon Hammer Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 Not such a bad meeting, considering the amount of absent riders - dust did kick-up a bit tho. Â Well done Ben Morley, tough to get put into the main body of the side, but did so well he took all 4 of his rides. 3. Â Anders Thomsen was excellent unbeaten by an opponent after his first ride, and great Ht12 cut-back - Great rider, and sure some EL clubs will be looking at him 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockets Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 We have a weak enough team anyway but the one thing five of those riders like is a bit of dirt and a bit if grip. So what do they have a landing strip with a blue groove around the inside after about 8 heats. Sensible!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what do they have a landing strip with a blue groove around the inside after about 8 heats. Sensible!!!! The team have asked for more grip, but the promoter insists on doing it his way. Overheard a couple of members of the track staff after tonight's meeting, deep in conversation about the track prep. Didn't catch all of what they said, but the jist of it seemed to be how THEY Would do it. Â Len Silver is someone who divides opinion. Sure, it's his team, his stadium, his money, but he's not always right. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halifaxtiger Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) . Len Silver is someone who divides opinion. Sure, it's his team, his stadium, his money, but he's not always right. Â Well said indeed If its any consolation (and it won't be) he is anything but the only one who is like that. Â I didn't think it was a bad meeting and had a bit of sympathy for the track staff given that it was a very warm sunny afternoon and evening and there was a breeze blowing across the track. There was enough passing to suggest that it could be done. Â Rye House were solid with no stand out performer, although Ben Morley's important win in heat 8 deserves credit. Thomsen was hugely impressive but the rest of the Tigers were not. Harrison did a job and Marc Owen should not be criticised but heat 13 aside, Wolbert beat only Morley and a slowing Kennett and Compton and Henry took almost all their points from Brendan Johnson. Given the weakness of the Rye team, they should have got a lot closer. Edited June 15, 2014 by Halifaxtiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolly Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 Danny Phillips in for Stefan Neilson, don't know much about him but I hope he can sneak a couple of points as we need everything we can get to get a result from this fixture.

Dave Stummings Posted June 15, 2014 Report Share Posted June 15, 2014 (edited) Even the local press (see below) seem to think what we all know. When is Silver going to smell the roses for gods sake! Â "It was a strange meeting which never sparked into life, plagued by a poor attendance and a dusty track which left those punters who had paid good money to watch probably wishing they had stayed at home."
