Newcastle Verses Sheffield 17/07/14


Recommended Posts

Tis true Spinny, but for 2 rare engine failures for Stead, a puncture for Compton, a blown engine for Compton and Proctor hitting the fence when rounding King, Newcastle would have been soundly beaten - and that is before you consider that Bates didn't ride.

 

Solid return debut for Ben, think paid 8 should silence the critics about his return. Indeed, ignoring mechanical gremlins, the whole top 6 were very solid.

Disappointed with the Diamonds tonight. If we are to have any chance of a top 6 finish we need to win a couple of away matches and tonight looked as good a chance as any but it sounds like we were well beaten and very fortunate to get within 10.

 

Poor from Lindgren yes, on a track he rarely if ever has scored well on but nobody has really scored well tonight. Tad disappointed with King in particular. 11 is ok but no more than that and he scored 14 here in the British Semi-Final in a far stronger field. Don't think he's really lived up to expectations yet, particularly away from home.

Cue Ball is spot on with his analysis.

Far better 'all round' team effort tonight and we should gave really hit 60.....

The tiger feet record was played more tonight than the whole of this season lol.

A welcome return to Ben with a solid score. Brought in to do a job and he did it we'll.

Lewi Kerr got 9 from 4 (he had 8 from 3 before his last ride). I think (in my opinion, obviously) that is a good score.
