boz Posted March 26, 2015 Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Should be an interesting meeting - although as others have said it will be freezing! Teams look quite evenly matched for me - decent top ends with perhaps slightly weaker tails. Whichever set of reserves has the best night may decide t he meeting. Reasonably optimistic of a Bears win in this, but it will be close. Main thing for me is some track time, and all riders to get through the meeting safely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well could not have got that post any more wrong! Firstly, hope Robbo is ok. Seemed to take a hell of an impact. I know it was only a challenge, but a worrying start. Fair to play to Worky, they started the meeting on fire and never let up. Bach is always good value round here but impressed with Wells and thought Barrett had a good meeting too. Our tail looked very very long. Graversen and Skidmore both very poor, which then put the pressure on the reserves to score points. Konopka looked improved on last year, but Morley looked slow. Way too early to write anybody off just yet, but can't have too many more meetings like that. On the positive side, both Bjerre and Kus did look good. Bjerre especially looked quick and was trying every possible line to pass people. With a fit Robbo should be a decent top 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halifaxtiger Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Couple of cracking races late on warmed up a freezing cold night on Teesside. Workington were pretty impressive even allowing for how disappointing Redcar were and I don't think they had a weak link. Concerns for the Bears, though. They do have a long tail, with Morley trying hard but losing yards at the starts, Konopka no better than last season and Graversen out of his depth anywhere but reserve. Skiddy will be better than that, but the question is will those three ? Dreadful crash, with Robbo shedding a chain and falling and Konopka going straight over him. Good to hear no bones broken and hopefully the suspected concussion is not as bad as first thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Robbo has a large lump on his leg but the leg is otherwise OK. He has had a CT scan and that is clear. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bellers101 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 Cricket score on the cards at home against Sheffield next Friday as well. No Robbo as riding for Coventry if fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
