Woz01 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) It seems Barker will be fit but ride for Plymouth while I've just seen that Michelsen has tweeted he is now finished for the season. With Woodward and Blackbird also out Eastbourne will be severely depleted. Any other Bees riders missing?

abbo Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Question I would ask, I see Woz01 says Barker riding for Plymouth I assume he means on Friday, I realise Barker has only just returned to the Bees but he is a Coventry asset as I understand it should mean that he rides for Coventry (the owners of his contract) rather than PL, interested to read views of other people.

Weird one this. That seems to have happend in some cases. But I'd argue that this meeting is in effect a "re-arranged" meeting to Barker. His Plymouth meetings should come first.

Woz01 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) I read a post on Facebook that he will be riding at Plymouth on Friday so might not be accurate. Edit: Neil Watson confirms on FB that Ben will not be riding for Coventry or Plymouth on Friday.

Jacques Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 I'd sooner have Max Fricke anyway..If he's available.of course. Also, can one of the stattos help me out with Hansens average please? I'm hoping we can bounce back from last night and show those Robins we're not totally useless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Kenneths average, before yesterday, http://speedway-stats.co.uk/Rider/539 Without bonus points he's averaged 5.09 this season.

Eagle727 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) Rumoured Eagles line-up for Friday: Hugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grubb... + R/R Couldn't do any worse than the shower we've had representing us for the last 35 away defeats... Guaranteed 6 points and nice confidence boost for the Bees after the poor performance at Swindon...

abbo Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Just learned from an official source at the Stadium the Curfew for Friday night is 10.30pm, hopefully 3 and half hours is enough time to complete both meetings. Let's hope it is run with more efficiency than we have seen in the past. I note according to the programmes that we still have two meetings outstanding I.e. Home to Wolves, away to Belle Vue, nothing has been mentioned about these meetings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Think they were looking at 17th Sep for Home to wolves but nothing confirmed yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Get those two missing meetings in and we can still, possibly, finish top. Win the 4 home meeting would give us 63 points. Assuming Lynn and Poole win their home meetings they'll get 65 for Lynn and 62 for Poole. Lynn have to go to BV and Leicester, Poole have to go to Leciester and Coventry have to go to BV. Even 2nd wouldn't be the end of the World if whoever is 1st losing their semi, we'd then have the pick of home/away in the final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCB Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) Blimey your optimistic this morning!! Not counting on Poole winning next monday then? Of course not. I guess you're not counting no Eastbourne winning tonight either. It think it's a fairly safe bet that each of the top 3 in the league will win their home meetings now. I guess we could take the approach that Poole will win at Coventry and back up for the season now - just give Poole the title.

lucifer sam Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Hugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grubb... + R/R Ahem I think you'll find it is: "Pugh, Pugh, Barney McGrew, Cuthbert, Dibble, Grubb." Pugh & Pugh were twins. Get your Trumpton facts correct. All the best Rob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
