The crowd would have been 4 times bigger last night if it wasn't on TV.

 

 

Personally, I think the crowds are not as bad as we think. I blame the massive TV's we all have now which makes the crowds look sparse!! Try watching on a Nokia 3210!!

If we seriously want to win anything this season, we should make a change now that the averages alter as from Mon 16 May - go for Greg Zengota 7.79 in place of Jason Garrity 5.08 - should fit in ok ?

 

Bees should have coerced Garrity into riding as reserve this year given that he would probably have had half the season in the team proper anyway as a result of the farcical EDR Rules !

 

With the lad in the team proper we are left short at both second string and reserve level this year and at least he has Sheffield to fall back on .... Zengi would give us a really strong top three with decent back up from King and Woryna - maybe keep Garrity as our squad D/U rider alongside King instead of Barker?

 

Thoughts anyone ?

 

Cheers

If it were me he'd be the one to go as the pole looks better than Garrity

Some good scores from Coventry riders with their PL clubs tonight

 

Garrity. 3,3,3,1 = 10

Bates 2,3,3,2. = 10

Sarjeant 0,3,3,3 = 9

King. 2,1,1,1 = 5

Poor score from King but he was leading his 2nd ride before falling.

Garrity is averaging more than Kacper.

Maybe so but the pole will be the better rider

I disagree. I think both have potential. However away from home Garrity should be stronger. Also on good equipment, Garrity is beating stronger riders e.g Doyle,Kylmakorpi,Buzz to name a few.

Possibly but we are talking about now, Garrity can be a potential match winner at tracks he regularly does well at like Wolves. Woryna should have a good few meetings now he's at reserve. Think there is almost a point difference between the two

I think that happened at the recent Coventry Storm v Cradley match but I must have not been paying attention so missed it and mucked my programme up. :lol: Heat 12 Luke Chessell fell whilst leading on the 3rd or 4th lap, remounted and still beat James Purchase. Mind you that wasn't hard as he had been toddling round all night.
