Mr Blobby Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 The home men will be at full strength for this one. For the diamonds no stevie Worrall for them as he's on EL duty for Belle Vue and will be replaced by Theo Pijper. Should be at tight match as most matches against the Diamonds are but home win by 12. Teams for Friday Edinburgh 1. Sam Masters 2. Erik Riss 3. Kevin Wolbert 4. Jye Etheridge 5. Ryan Fisher 6. Max Clegg 7. Dan Bewley Newcastle 1. Robert Lambert 2. Victor Palovaara 3. Matej Kus 4. Ludvig Lindgren 5. Theo Pijper (G) 6. Lewis rose 7. Danny Phillips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheviot Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 pity steve is missing again but I think it will be a lot closer than your 12 point win Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantodan Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 (edited) From a Newcastle point of view it is a blow that we cannot have Steve Worrall in our side. Guest Theo Pijper is a good rider but he is unlikely to match what Steve Worrall could score at Edinburgh. If the Diamonds lose by just a few points and Pijper under-acheives then I will question the choice of guest. Come on Theo prove me wrong and win us the match Edited May 26, 2016 by dantodan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulS Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Theo is quality but Stevie Worrall is simply irreplaceable. With Worrall I would fancy Diamonds to win 42-48 against this weaker than usual Edinburgh side. Without Worrall it's harder but still a chance to sneak the win.

speed ace Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 If Palovaara has got his gating gloves with him, you might not miss Worral too badly, he's got a decent record round the dale too.(Theo needs to remember to bring his gating gloves too).

diamond@heart Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Will Theo still be riding as I understand he took a bit of a knock last night at Sheffield? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJC71 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Gutted. Goes without saying had Stevie been riding we would probably have taken all 4 points. Great effort though. Ah well it was no surprise we got beat by 2 points. Theo wasn't the best guest we could have had He is normally good at Edinburgh, scored 11 there for Berwick a few weeks ago. Maybe not fit after last night, in which case he probably shouldn't have ridden. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acclennell Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Decent result but so frustrating when with a full team I have no doubt 4 points would have been coming our way and not just 1. Missing 2 riders on Monday and 4 riders on Thursday by all accounts - not good and could end up costing us on all fronts which is a shame - full team out we are a match for everyone but on how many occasions is this going to happen. Well done to Victor on a fantastic performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done to Victor on a fantastic performance. Agreed. But if we want to watch Robert Lambert every week that's the price we'll have to pay. Been worth it so far I have to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScotsman Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Not just Lambert you miss out on though. That's the problem with using so many riders with EL priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but it's just so frustrating and the problem is also it's not just one rider but 3 and sometimes more with overseas committments for LL and MK.

andys Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Whatever the rights or wrongs it's becoming increasingly frustrating, knowing we have a team, when altogether, are capable of winning wherever they ride 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
