Diamonds V Scorpions 29/6/14


Recommended Posts

Great to see Aaron Fox in amongst the points. Did he ride well?

Yes very impressive. Looked steady when he guested a couple of weeks ago but clearly has benefited from that. Gated well, good aggression on the first corner and faultless when in front. Only down side is the Worrall/Fox reserve pairing will be a major problem for the Diamonds in the second league match.

Be Sneddon/Fox by then

Being as you both asked.

 

Lindgren bust a gut to get past King in order to win a Race nearly fencing himself on the third bend in one race. He could just as easily settled for second. What if he had fenced himself? What good would that have done the Team in future Meetings had he been injured?

 

Exactly the same with young Fox - he just couldn't let him win to help his confidence.

 

Lindgren in this form is a truly brilliant Rider on occasions but he does not do it often enough, and I do not like seeing him doing everything he can to pass his own Team Mates. You might not like it but he is certainly NOT a Team man and tonight certainly proved my point.

 

So please don't tell me he is a Team Rider - he plainly isn't.

King actually slowed to let Ludde pass him as he obviously knew Ludde was on a max so no idea what you're going on about there. As I and others have said there have been numerous good examples of excellent team riding by Lindgren this season so by constantly moaning about that you are ignoring the facts.

 

Anyway this team riding thing is rubbish. Kenneth Bjerre and Kenni Larsen are two of the greatest all time Diamonds but neither ever team rode. Did you give KB or Kenni so much grief? I doubt it.

 

Ludde was magnificent last night. Up the Ludde!!

I was thinking myself just before you posted that, that if Rene had ridden like Ludde last night, everyone, including TWK, would be raving about the performance. Sad that sufficient credit can't be acknowledged by some. :mad: Thoroughly devalues all their opinions.

Was left squinting at this hammering and seriously wondered if I had it wrong and it was Stags at Rough Park. Was it the track? I find myself hoping it was as I cannot see how Scorps can do that badly?. We need to very quickly put this behind us and get back to being the top team we are. Thanks to Tommy Gun and David for giving it a go but the rest will be hurting after this crusher. Expect a response on Friday v Sheffield.

You ARE joking of course.

 

No there hasn't - not from Lindgren anyway and THAT is a FACT.

I said in an earlier Post that Lindgren in his form on Sunday is a BRILLIANT Rider - is that praise or not? I doubt I could be more fulsome in my praise than that - do you?

I also said he didn't perform like that often enough - am I right or am I wrong?

 

However - I have also said that he isn't a Team Rider - and he isn't. That is all I am saying.

 

Opinions can also be devalued by those wearing rose coloured spectacles.
