Recommended Posts

Bradley Wilson-Dean is the guest for Rob Branford.

Good Guest there if he rides like he does at Arlington he will be worth the entrance fee alone plus Danny Ayres ect ect :t:

Waiting to see who's riding for the Kings tonight. I read that Chris Hunt is leaving it late to decide on the lower order riders. Plus will men and machines be up to scratch after the fours fiasco yesterday? Well done lads such a shame you didn't have a decent track to race on.

Rr for James Shanes who has concussion, Smith also out with wrenched knee. Adam Sheppard replacing him and rob watts at number 8.

 

Bradley Wilson Dean is in hospital still with bruised pancakes so it's unclear whether Rye House will book another guest or use RR themselves.

The NL rules seem as confusing as the EL. The green sheet says Ellis is NEG not available to guest as he has aPL average of over 4.0. So how come he can guest tonight? Nearly all the No 1's are NEG so who can stand in for BWD on Sunday?

No one seems to understand this and it's been explained on another page. Ben Morley can guest and there is someone on standby Sunday which must be him.

He was due to guest for rye vs Eastbourne

Another poor performance from a woefully weak Kings team,, and a ref Cris Gay who likes to watch riders burn their clutches out before releasing the tapes ,but also loves to watch Adam Ellis perform his amazing rolling starts that never seem to get penalised at this track recently,, I make it six in his last two visits here.... In my opinion .Riders,taking an age to get to the tapes and then messing about when they get there annoy me !,,dont they know there is a curfew at the track, and from their crys of, Get on with it!! from the crowd,, one feels the fans may lose their appetite for the sport here, unless things improve dramatically and who can blame them.. Only Ben 15+1 inc a tactical,, and Danny 11 points came out o this meeting with much credit ,Though Danno, Aaron and Jamie tried hard for only small rewards,, But the Raiders deserved their dominate victory 49-38 and in contrast to the kings their bottom end looked extremly promising,,Finally best wishes to James for a speedy recovery we missed him today.. There is NO MEETING NEXT MONDAY!!

As ever you manage to get your weekly dig in on Adam, we all know he took Ben's place at Lakeside but you really need to get over it, it's getting tiresome now. Morley broke the tapes in heat one and was pulled back for jumping the start in heat 13. Rose tinted specs indeed

Precisely my point Ben got penalised, but Adam did not,, im not the only on who saw what happened tonight and on his previous visit here when he was warned 3 times publically by the ref without being penalised. All i ask is that the refs are consistent.. Adam is a fine young rider and was retained at Lakeside on the fact he was an asset and had better away form than Ben I have no problem with that...

I did not go last night (I have missed 4 out of last 5)as I am just getting/got really hacked off with Speedway/Kent.

Speedway - Guests,long meetings,lack of professionalism,bad tracks,bad referees,etc etc etc.

Kent - To me a non event for Kent last night (and it showed with another poor performance),without Shanes entertainment gone,carrying 3 riders,going to finish near bottom of League,bottom of Trophy and going no further in KOC.

And the way last night finished (what was going on in last Heat?)I very much doubt if I will bother again this season.

 

But I must say well done Kent for consistency - April, 4 fixtures - FOUR DEFEATS.

May,6 fixtures - 4 wins,2 draws.

June,5 fixtures - FIVE DEFEATS.

It means he can't guest in the PL as an 'NL only' guest, ie when a PL team has no facility. The ruling doesn't affect the NL at all so just ignore it.

Funny thing is that Adam, ( and many other riders like him ) should be allowed to get as much track time as possible . How do we expect our young riders to develop with the myriad of petty rules every year?
