TonyE Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Is Doyle also missing for this meeting due to practice for best pairs or is he missing it? The Hammers' website has Doyle down as riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjolnir Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Adam Ellis had a much better night for Birmingham last night, so hopefully that's given him a bit of a boost for tomorrow's meeting. We'll need AJ up to speed to deal with Doyle - hopefully he's feeling better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrow boy Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Lakeside's website lists their top 5 as AJ, MBJ, KN, EK,RL. I presume this is not the riding order as MBJ must be the second highest average. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teromaafan Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Think this will be tight, with either team winning by no more than 8 points, but hoping for a first Lions Elite away win on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bryn Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 First Raceday Weather Check 10am: It's fine, bright and sunny here just across the south side of the Dartford crossing and today's forecast from the Met Office states it's going to be dry all day with NO hint of rain whatsoever and temperatures around 10C all day. Further update at lunchtime but NO weather problems anticipated as the Vortex Lakeside Hammers go flat out to tame those Lions from Leicester.

westhamboy66 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Ridiculous that i am going to watch Rye House at Peterborough and we are minus one of our Assets (Edward Kennett) simply as he is needed to prop up an EL club. Complete disrespect for the PL which is being runined by EL clubs inability to have their own riders. Beggars belief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjolnir Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 (edited) Ridiculous that i am going to watch Rye House at Peterborough and we are minus one of our Assets (Edward Kennett) simply as he is needed to prop up an EL club. Complete disrespect for the PL which is being runined by EL clubs inability to have their own riders. Beggars belief. But at the time that he signed to ride for Lakeside he wasn't your asset, he was on loan at both clubs. Len's statement made it sound like it is Eddie's preference, mostly from a financial perspective - at least that's how I read it: "As it did not affect very many fixtures, and with the riders interests at heart, Rye House were happy with the arrangement. Suddenly the picture was changed when a swap with Jason Garrity would have given Rye House official priority and Edward would have lost his place ( and substantial income) from Lakeside. So to keep faith and uphold my prior agreement with both Edward and Lakeside, the new contract and transfer agreement was delivered to the BSPA after the official start to the season, thus giving Lakeside the priority that was previously agreed." It is very frustrating for any fan / club to be missing a rider - in many ways I'm not a fan of riders doubling up between leagues. Haven't rules been brought in to reduce long term doubling up within the next couple of seasons? Edited March 27, 2015 by Mjolnir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Complete disrespect for the PL which is being runined by EL clubs inability to have their own riders. Beggars belief. The PL have had first priority over the NL and the EL for years. Funny how when the boots on the other foot the PL fans get upset. Your issue here is with Len and his being to soft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
