The City Gearboxes Vikings will take a 12 point lead to Stoke for the 2nd leg of the MDL KO Cup on Saturday July 5th after a 24-12 win over the Spitfires at Brandon on Friday.
Their win could have been more emphatic but for two falls for Jason Garrad in heat 3 and Adam Sheppard in heat 4 when the Vikings were on maximum 5-1 heat wins!
The match started though in the worst possible way when Vikings skipper John Markham was sent head first into the fence after Spitfires No. 1 Alex Wilson dived under him after picking up drive and straightening up. Markham was knocked out with his helmet completely cracked and was taken to the local hospital where thankfully only a concussion was diagnosed and a shoulder injury the only outcome.
Garrad’s fall robbed him of a full 12 point maximum with the newcomer remounting and catching and passing Sam Darroch for a third place.
For the Spitfires Sam Ward started in fine style with a fine win over Conor Dwyer whilst Kelsey Dugard , son of former England star Martin, improving with every ride and in heat 6 stalked Adam Sheppard for four laps before pipping him on the line.
