Halifaxtiger Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Wonder if newsman would care to comment on this one ? Greenwood & Mudgway were competitive but the rest were poor. Even Blacklock had a bad day at the office. Stoke looked good, though, and I am wondering just how Belle Vue beat them so easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iannewsman Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Well, miracles do happen. It has to be said that Buxton are a poor side, and their R/R only produced 1 point, but you can only beat who is on the track with you. Well done to the Stoke 'riders'.

teddy2706 Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Interesting. Things change, circumstances change, people change, machinery changes but let's have my say anyway: At Coventry last month, Buxton stole a win by one point, an excellent achievement against the odds. Astonishing. At that meeting, Ben Hopwood scored three points from four rides for Buxton. Ben then visits Buxton, a track he apparently dislikes and scores eight against Buxton riding for Stoke. Astonishing. Ben Wilson, a rider who left Stoke for a PL berth not that long ago, then appears riding for Stoke on a 6.57 average in the number five berth and scores twelve points. Astonishing. Rider replacement for Steve Jones produced a single point from four rides for Buxton. Astonishing. It seems to me, that whilst every other club is actively scheming to make monkeys of other clubs, the only people Buxton are making monkeys of are the supporters . whilst we pay £14.50 for that privilege including programme. The impression I get, over and over again is that I am watching a team that is a man short and that has been the case for a few years. Even when they appear to be at full strength, someone, as Halifax Tiger says; is having a bad day at the office (and I am certainly not aiming that jibe at Ryan Blacklock). Buxton is one of the few tracks in the UK where practice sessions for home riders are possible and I respectfully suggest that the current Buxton team seem to need to take advantage of that facility. Soon. It would be nice too, if another PA microphone was made available so that supporters could be kept abreast of results and times, without Grahame Tagg having to walk out onto the gantry and shout out the results to ribald abuse, a most unfair and unsatisfactory state of affairs that wouldn't be tolerated even twenty seven miles down the road at Loomer rd.

Pete Greenwood Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 The facility my not be as available as you suggest old sparky ,, weather not been the best up there either .

Its not just the riders that have jobs either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
