EASTBOURNE: Matt Williamson, Gary Cottham, Georgie Wood, Ellis Perks, Jake Knight, Luke Harris, Charley Powell.

 

Looking forward to this, great choice of guest for Brummies. Ayres really good when Kent were here. Kids under 16 go free when with a paying adult. Hope it's a good crowd.

Stick a R/R against Gary Cottham as well! This should be good. Last time we were in town Wood was flying around here and Williamson is in form and was here all last season. Perks is just starting to come good and Knight will be up for a few. However I do think reserves will be out classed ( or more like I know) even though Powell did well there for Brum last year. I'll go a home win by 50-40 or there abouts

Powell is better then Smith if he stays on, Harris is better then smith if he can make a start, jack PB is better then all of them. so its going to be quite a fair meeting for both sets of reserves, I think its going to be a great match and could go either way. Perks seems to have his bike problems sorted at last so a few points from him and wood, cant really call it as Zac wont want to mix it as he wont want to get hurt as he is doing the WTC at the weekend both sides have had injury problems so lets hope its going to be a safe meeting for both teams.

 

Real tough meeting for both sides its going to be very close.

Though the Eagles are coming off the back of 2 good wins, and have some riders who ride PB well, ie 3 riders all rode PB last year as there home Track, so should know setups, I still feel Brum will win this by some way mainly due to there reserves remember they will be taking rr rides also. Having seen a few meetings now the League as a whole is shaping up very well, with Brum, Kent, and the Eagles being my Play Off tips, and the last place being between BV, KL and Cradley.

 

Good luck to Connor Dugard on his new role as Eastbourne Team Manager.

Agree with what you say Greyhound and I believe Cradley will come through their rough patch to make the playoffs as they are strong at home just need to maybe switch reserves about a bit to get going away. Whatever they have done to Luke Chessell needs doing to their reserves he is a different rider this season

The problem is that Basford should be riding reserve, at the moment he is being forced to ride in the main body of the Team, bcuz of other riders low averages.

Strange really gone from leading and beating decent riders to falling when scoring like at Coventry. Powelldefinietly has it in him but doesn't like high pressure from behind

It would appear the management have responded very well to my phone call this morning Alex :)

It appears so and just for the record maybe you should have made Gasbloke do it as he was the one that said cottham couldn't ride!!!
