I agree... What if Glasgow wanted to use Summers anyway but he had bike problems.. Just put another rider in and tell him to break tapes. Summers fixes bike ... Job done Edited by KEITH M

Disappointing not to get a point but Glasgow away is obviously a tough one and 40 is ok.

 

Very disappointed with Kus though. Been ok at home but he was signed primarily for his away form and his best away return so far is 4+1, albeit from just 3 meetings. Needs to be much better than that if he's to justify the big effort to bring him here.

 

No news on a guest for tomorrow but if it's r/r I really fear for us especially with no Rose. If Kus rides like that we'll be well beaten.

Can someone enlighten me re Heat 15. Richie Broke the tapes and the options were for him to go off 15 metres or be replaced. Now he/his team should have been punished but were allowed to bring in a heat leader Aaron Summers for Richie how is that a punishment for a team breaking the tapes! :nono:

 

Anyway it appears the match was a classic for the home fans

If I were Newcastle I`d look into the events of Ht15, in their recent match with Berwick the same thing happened but Theo Pyper was forced to go off 15m as Worrall shouldve done this afternoon.

I guess it's to stop heat 15 being an anti climax if a rider goes through the tapes but agree it surely just encourages riders to try and anticipate the start and will probably lead to loads of re-runs. Wouldn't have mattered anyway.

l suppose it is the top scorers race but that is not the point,so the next top scorer comes in he should be on 15 metres as well or stick with R.worrall off 15 metres.So angry about this& rule needs to be amended asap to stop teams abusing it.

Doesn't need amending just needs enforcing.

Yep I recall that so if it wasn't allowed at Berwick why was it allowed today? Only in speedway.

The quicker Buster rips up the rule book and starts again with simpler rules that everyone understands and adheres to the better.

So riders could do 2 or 3 starts on a clutch, but then a bloke with a fresh cool one can come in, ludicrous.... Phillips and kus not pulling up many trees in the past few weeks will see us getting beat tomorrow if they dont up their game. To fall off at the back in a 3 rider race is poor unless chain snapped or something.

Too many last places, id swap kus and palovaara around or even steve and ludvig away from home.

 

Funny old game speedway, you equal the track record but only score 6 from 5 lol.... Least weve got 2 hard away matches out of the way without and thrashings. Howay the lads :)

Another rule change from last year

 

A rider committing a starting offence can be replaced by a reserve or another qualified rider.

Another rule you should be penalised not get away with it for committing an offence& be offered another chance.

Could the ref at the recent Berwick v Newcastle match see this post, he might learn something. :nono:

He was good when he gated otherwise ......

 

Standard Ashfield performance from Kus though Lewis Rose was excellent as was Steve Worrall though his gate in ht13 wouldve embarrassed Sarjeant. No need for it either as he is very good at GLA.

 

Glasgow will be battered after that, Garcia off to get his hand x-rayed, Barker having yet more engine issues that threw him off, Summers heavily visiting the fence in 15 and it looked like Lawsons bike packed up after that same heat. Guest choices for Garcia on a 3 will be very limited tomorrow if required. Hopefully we can keep it close enough to take a point.

Can see the reasoning behind it being so that the supporters see the best available riders and don't feel they're only getting to see a three man race.

Seems a pity that such a good afternoons racing is being left to one side due to a rule which may be to the benefit of every team in the league if they require to use the facility, please don't have a short memory
