Rye House V Glasgow 21st June, The Longest Day At 7pm


Recommended Posts

It is now beyond funny though . And tonight's lamentable display should be the final straw . Harrison should be doing better too , but a number one should be leading from the front . We had three young Danish riders riding their hearts out tonight . And them and the travelling support have been let down by the three heat leaders .

Anybody who can score 6 would be an improvement

Could be the Rockets Captain, who was last seen having a row with the management over the watering on the slick line turning it into an ice rink.

Where to start. Glasgow were pretty awful bar Thomsen and the two reserves . Lykke showed all the best of the potential he had shown at Rye. A real have a go merchant . Well done son. Palm - toft. Don't forget the fuel taps is right about how the averages are treated. Ridiculous how a rider with a 4.83 EL average can guest for a PL reserve with a 5 average.

For Rye bandits4eva is right. The heart is going out of the place. Eddie Steve and Jason G are riding well. JB did well tonight but it's quite clear the team is nt right and more importantly for the riders the track isn't. We have a team who want to race on a track as slick as a car park. Sadly Len seems oblivious to it all. Very sad indeed

Is that in the same way he was a fish and chip taster for Harry Ramsdens? I know we joke about these things but it so sad to watch the decline. Each week another long familiar face is missing. If he does nt get a team together to challenge for honours next season I hate to think what crowd levels will be like.

Be out for a month then

Christian Henry has got to have a skin graft.

 

I must agree that Len seemed to be putting one heck of a lot of water down, yet I didn't think overall that the meeting was to bad.

 

Ben Morley is certainly a mystery as someone has said, and I don't know what the answer is with him really. He's undoubtedly got a talent, and I just feel that a move to a different club might benefit him, like it looks to have done with Simon Lambert.

 

It was my first visit to Rye House this season, and as I've said before, the stadium is really well presented. One thing that really impressed me was that once proceedings got underway, it was run without lots of annoying delays and long intervals (I appreciate that's not always the case), and I was back in Heacham (Norfolk) by just after 10.30pm.

I don't even get home from King's Lynn that early, and I only live a 20-25 minute drive from the stadium!!

No-one has mentioned the performance of Ben Morley. How can a rider score so well for us (Lakeside) yet so poorly for you? Last night he achieved 8+2 from four completed outings.

 

Perhaps Joe Jacobs explained:

 

Jacobs has a busy schedule as he races in all three leagues during 2014. He also represents Mildenhall in the National League and is with Wolverhampton in the top flight as part of the Fast Track programme. But he insists his toughest challenge is putting points on the board in Panthers colours. “On the whole I’m really happy with the teams I am at this year,” continued Jacobs. “All the clubs are fairly local to where I live and now I’m just focusing on building some momentum to take into the rest of the season. “The Premier League is very tough to ride in as you’re competing against the opposition’s top riders. “The Elite League is not as difficult because you are always are riding against at least one National League rider.”

Think the EL fans need a lesson in how weak the EL is compared to the PL. Ben Morley when riding for lakeside is sheltered by enlarge to ride against draft riders whose skill base is similar to his own, he then rides for Rye and all of a sudden he is up against far superior riders and that is reflected in his scores. Those who clamour for him to be a full time Rocket need to understand you can't want a league place in the PL based on his performance against NL riders at his home track at Lakeside

Glasgow did well last night and were unfortunate not to take a point away with them good to see Edward at his best

Wow! That's going to make such a difference. The new captain will get all the other riders going, lift the spirits of the other 6 riders. Yer dream on. Silver has totally lost it, sick to death of saying it. Didn't go to Rye House last night, spent the evening in my local. Think that's it for me now at Rye House. So that's another £18 lost each week now out of Silvers pocket. Oh and the snotty Hazels pocket to. Grrrrrrrrrr

So he was pushed by old man Silver? If Bunyan criticised the old boy then no surprise, silver won't have being told how to do it.

    1. Silver: "I am sad to see Jason step down. He has done a fine job during difficult times and he has my appreciation for that.”

      Looking at this Bunyan stepped down.

Once upon a time Len was proactive. Now he is reactive.

The Russell brothers were proactive how many tracks did they close down?

 

If Len was reactive he would dump 30 Ton of dirt on the Rye track, he would have beer on tap, he would increase the quality, portion size and order enough fish in the chip shop. Then again he is still running a track that most wouldn't touch with a barge pole and paying rent to no one, not to mention that he pays riders on time oh yeah not to forget he took speedway to its newest venue far plusher than most EL tracks and of course on the side he runs a ski firm rubbish we may be at the moment but as long as he is at the helm we will have speedway, how they would like that at Wimbledon, Hackney, Crayford, Romford, Reading, Oxford, Hull, etc etc.

Yeah the blokes an idiot....
