ZODIAK Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) A big test for the Witches on Saturday after being caught cold by Scunny in the opening night at Foxhall a couple of weeks ago. A couple of positives going in to the meeting though, Risager is fit to return and King had a days testing at Birmingham last week to sort out his early season machinery problems, and has subsequently only dropped two points in two meetings for Coventry and is said to be much happier with his bikes. Sheffield look a good outfit though and this will be a tough test especially with Sheffield looking to have the upper hand at reserve. Hopefully Paco gets going at home or at least shows signs of improvement. Hall should clean up at reserve though you'd have thought so it could be a tough evening again. Oh and Saturday night speedway at Foxhall! Will be interesting to see how big the crowd is.

Steve Irving Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Lakeside ride on Saturday too so I assume Lewis Kerr will be missing for this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Another tough home match for us. A lot could depend on the track prep and if kerr is racing for us. I shall go for a draw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Kerr a Kings Lynn asset so EL gets priority. Guest is allowed though when on EL duty. As at home CMA plus 5%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZODIAK Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Can't Lakeside use one of their 50 winter signings and leave Kerr to ride for us? They have Ben Morley in their "squad" why not use him? Fair enough the rule book says that the EL club get priority, but didn't Adam Ellis choose to ride for us over Lakeside a few times when Lakeside also had priority? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aries Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 CL has confirmed on twitter that Kerr will be riding for Lakeside. So what do we have to play with in terms of a guest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) Was just gonna ask the same thing. Edited March 28, 2016 by baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reviresco Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 With the +5% for a missing 1 - 5 in a home meeting, 7.19 is the allowance. Berwick hosting Redcar the same night, so their riders don't come into consideration. Jack Holder (7.10) might be looking for a run-out, but may be rusty and is there a 'grey area' in respect of Plymouth riders being in a current Team Declaration? Richie Worrall (6.84) but has a match against Edinburgh the next day? Ryan Douglas (6.68) has been in good early season form and been round the track already this season? Matej Kus (7.13)?

ZODIAK Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Wouldn't bet against it being Heeps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) Mmmmm it probably will be. Might be a good idea but might not. Since we are already more or less out of this cup might as well use him i suppose. Although I wouldn't, none of us really know who is and isn't available.

2ndbendbeerhut Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Go for RR then and give this years team extra rides? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 (edited) Could do, but if it's 2 home losses on the trot, how's that going to effect the crowds next time? If there are random Saturday supporters you want to keep them coming back. Edited March 29, 2016 by baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 On current form Robson wouldn't be a bad guest? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZODIAK Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Good shout that. Robson has started like a house on fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 On current form Robson wouldn't be a bad guest?Good call IMO. Great to watch as well. One of my favourite non Witches of all time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Oh yes, robbo has been a treat to watch over the years. Great call S4K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZODIAK Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Wouldn't R/R be Risager, Sargeant and the reserves? Far too risky that especially with Paco struggling to get around Foxhall at the moment. Definitely need a guest. Still think Heeps will be the one but we should find out soon.
