Hobnob Smith Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 MJJ is ahead of Kildemand, he has experience in major events and is more likely to win a crucial heat. lmao have you seen Kildemand ride ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedy17 Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 So when we inevitably make the race off, and say Stead or King don't perform that well, are we still assuming Bridger will get a call being the only rider to ride in Poland this season out of everyone else? As now he's been sacked, I'm not sure if he actually owns any Polish equipment as most is owned by the clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Stead wasn't that far off the pace in heat 1 tonight. #OhDear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Read a tweet on Simon Stead's feed which said he's got the best record around Kings Lynn of any GB rider this year. That is fine but those stats mean nothing as performance must be judged on who he beat and who beat him. I sure our Team manager wouldn't pick someone based on a very small sample size and without analysing who Simon Stead has beaten in his races. We'll see how he does tonight against Lings Lynn for Leicester. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman2006 Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Middlo isn't manager is one, picking the right 4 would help. Namely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Oh dear Stead beaten by Robert Lambert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Stead did well at Kings Lynn tonight. Would have run last in Heat 1 bar a EF but then 2 wins and a 2nd place. Beat Lambert and Schlien in the process. Oh dear Stead beaten by Robert Lambert and then he beat Lambert. One race means nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Lady Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Agreed. To be honest track looks like a gaters paradise tonight so it's not really telling us anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Hmmmm. Maybe Rosco has called this one correctly. Always said Rosco was the man for the job as he;'d make the right decisions Still not convinced though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spin king Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Hmmmm. Maybe Rosco has called this one correctly. Always said Rosco was the man for the job as he;'d make the right decisions Still not convinced though. Of course he has got it right, and when he says horses for courses he has got bang on the button. If the meeting was held at the Wolves then you would have Cookie instead of Stead and Barker instead of King. Rosco is playing to his squads strengths. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Blobby Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Cook scored paid 12 the last time he was at KL the same as Stead did tonight one as a heat leader the other as a second string riding against NL reserves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Cook scored paid 12 the last time he was at KL the same as Stead did tonight one as a heat leader the other as a second string riding against NL reserves. He did but Bjerre was completely different last night from Belle Vue's visit. Cook wouldn't have scored paid twelve at number five last night IMO.

Panthers89 Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Cook scored 13 points in the British Final against a decent field then score 3 points (?) against Wolves this week, so cant exactly go along with that way of looking. It's a boring side, with no imagination BUT its probably the right side to put out sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 (edited) Absolutely. Personally I'd have picked a team looking to the future a bit more, but Rosco had selected his strongest team for the track and on that basis I think he's probably picked the four correct riders.

Woz01 Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Namely? For last year Danny King was on form around world cup time and he was completely ignored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodgy Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 He did but Bjerre was completely different last night from Belle Vue's visit. Cook wouldn't have scored paid twelve at number five last night IMO. Sounds like Lynn was slick this week. That would suit little big bear, doesn't like the dirt. Ex MX riders tend to handle deeper tracks better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 (edited) Wasn't slick IMO, but Kenneth is slowly getting his mojo back after breaking his collarbone, seems to be mixing it in the first bend and beyond much more now. Cook has very rarely showed up well at Lynn whereas Stead is usually very good. In terms of picking the best four horses for the course Rosco has probably got it spot on.

sommelier Posted July 19, 2014 Report Share Posted July 19, 2014 I honestly believe Bridger would do better than king or Stead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
