westhamboy66 Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Great top three for Newcatle on paper Robbo more erratic than ever prevented Newcastle from taking a point. Again Greenwood stood out and must be a shoe in along with Edward who has regained his confidence and Anders for next season The rest thanks but no thanks, sentiment should play no part with Luke and a team place, his home form is sketchy and that is his strength. If only Boxall could get a decent sponsor to supply the right kit he would be an eight point rider but he's not. Bye bye Bunyan can't remember the last time a rider has so under performed in his time with us and Garrity not worth talking about Sick to death of the unsatisfactory starts ruining meetings.

Lord Skid Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 JB was out doing the gate for the other rider who was out with EK, who he thought was AM, but JS thought SB was riding, then AM, then JB, all in all a FUp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben91 Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Was going to go last night but getting home late from work, coupled with the fact that I'm not parting with £20 plus to watch a team who have nothing to ride for already this season put paid to me attending again. Next year? I'd take Kennett back but he needs another heat leader to support him. Anders to slot in as third heatleader, no higher at the start of the year. Greenwood in at reserve. That is a reasonable starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odds On Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 we were all thinking what the hell was going on in heat 15, someone did mention it was a balls up by JS and that AM was all packed up and ready to leave, guess there's more to a TEAM rider than just riding your own races.

Oafski Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Well done to Eddie for winning Heat 15 so the Rockets got all 3 points from the meeting. Whether because it was because of the meagre crowd but I thought the team looked pretty hacked off on the truck on their parade lap and not like a team that had just taken maximum points and won the meeting. Anyone else notice this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odds On Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 The team manager needs to either jump into the real and current world or fekk off and retire in the Fens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else notice this? Yep, we did under the refs box. No Anders, Garrity or Olly. Anders I can understand, was on his way to the airport. Olly, no idea, probably hacked off after blowing an engine before heat 2. Garrity, well he hates riding for us, so I'm not surprised.

Chris Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Floodlights could defo do with an upgrade, track looked very dark for the riders. As I predicted, postman pat & silver to blame for heat 15. Completely unprofessional, but not at all surprising from them two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Skid Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 The air fence blocks out the light from the floodlights, and whose idea to have a dark blue fence??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted August 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 The air fence blocks out the light from the floodlights, and whose idea to have a dark blue fence???the lights on the bends could do with adjusting. They seem to be in the same position as last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rteyp Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 Often wondered why the air fence was blue on the sides and yellow on top. Maybe they cocked up the order ? Riders stood out more against the yellow. I think riders on the winners parade lap often look fed up and rarely look happy unless its the away team. I guess last nights heat 15 balls-up must have taken its toll. Its a real shame Garrity has switched-off at Rye, I have enjoyed his development over the previous 2 years and remember him being a very enthusastic rider. Chatting to his granddad about his history and development you got the impression he was over the moon to ride for Rye. Now his focus is elsewhere, things change. Have to agree re above views of look of Rockets 2015 - Edward Anders Olly Luke , has his moments but all too infrequent. Time for a change but I doubt it will happen. Steve Boxall, seems to be the same old story - talent but no consistent machinery. Sort that out then an asset worth keeping, but say that year on year. Jason Bunyan, won't be back even if asked. Garrity - would like him to stay if he had the commitment and interest he used to have. However I think he has already left... Always enjoy my Speedway (Workington match aside ) even if there is nothing to play for. Lets avoid last bottom of the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockets Posted August 14, 2014 Report Share Posted August 14, 2014 I have to say EK rides with a zeal unmatched by any of his teammates. He's a definite to return. OG showing great quality and getting better with every ride. Next years number 7 for me. AM looking good despite missing half the season a definite For me. Pick any one of SB JB or Tyson nelson to be number 6. Expected much better from JG. Not sure what's up but seems to be going through the motions. Pains me to say that LB is looking more like Kent will be his destination with every passing week. If the four I've outlined are retained with a perhaps reinvigorated JG then that's the nucleus of a very good side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
