whistlegang Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Morley riding for Lakeside so RR, Lambert back and Chessell in for Baseby. Away win but with all the points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whistlegang Posted August 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Bearing in mind that Stoke had not declared their number 1 when you posted and both Mason and Ayres top scored for us last time at Stoke..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueherb777 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Don't be afraid, please explain where the meeting will be lost? Lost 58-32 last time at Stoke. Weaker without Morley. Weaker without Baseby. Lambert just back from injury. We shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Mason and Ayres scored more than Morley last time out. Chessell knows Stoke better than Baseby and is in some mighty form right now. We had no Lambert and they had Wilson at number 1.

greyhoundp Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Stoke look to have it sewn up, but some mystifying RR choices by Kent, surely anyone could have taken RR rides ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whistlegang Posted August 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 that's what i thought?! Garrad and Ayres took r/r's and not Chessell and Compton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueherb777 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Kent 1 rider in Heat 15 and that is Ayres ? What a shambles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waco Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 I was not there but if the above statements are correct then it does sound like a shambles. Kent will need to do a lot better at Buxton sunday where we have Ben Morley back and Buxton have just lost their best rider Carr to injury, who was not on a high average for guest purposes, ,,so no excuses Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMW Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) Kent riders weren't keen at all to ride. Fair play to thr last man standing in ht 15 Ayres. He looks keen to learn and I felt for him when he was following Lambert with Atkin behind and came down last bend. He looked so dejected. Compton much improved from previous visits. I think Chessell prefers a slicker track although looked impressive in the tactical. Stoke did have the rub of the green with Chessell packing up while leading and Compton and Ayres had passed Shuttleworth 14 and were on a 1-5 but Payne got the better gate in the re run. Maybe Compton and Chessell had issues with RR Edited August 23, 2014 by TMW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jayne Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Interesting how Chessell was permitted to ride in the first place. Maybe when the SCB get the meeting results his score will be deducted or I along with Stoke have missed a rule change and you can have a guest for anyone now.

I'm not one for rules....Should Chessell have ridden at 1 for Morley with no. 2 being R/R? Maybe that is why Compton and Chessell didn't do a RR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokielee Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Massive clouds of dust from the very first bend of Heat 1. Again! And they eventually come out and water the straights?!! I'm running out of words to describe that shambles! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the rider directly above in average and any below that can take R/R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted August 26, 2014 Report Share Posted August 26, 2014 Personally im surprised the meeting even went ahead! The track was awful. Arrived at 5pm to see a soft mushy inside line and hard fine outer. All the riders walked, kicked and commented on it and yet nothing was done except shrugging of shoulders by the promotion until the referee ordered some work to take place which started at just before 7pm. After 40 minutes of pointless grading the meeting went ahead on with all riders just using the outside line which produced poor racing and far too many falls as all riders were forced into a small area. I hope all those that took a tumble are ok and Benji recovers asap although im surprised nobody was seriously injured. As a sub note I also really feel for the MDL boys who had their part cancelled due to time constraints after the track work. All in all I think the Stoke promotion should hang their heads in shame and apologise for this farce. I for one will never make the trip to the potteries again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones ? Benji Compton? Its the best I've seen the him ride the track this season Edited August 26, 2014 by TMW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
