mdmc82 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Coventry have to be really bad to get beaten by KL!! Coventry to win by 8-10 pts for me.Howarth for Lambert and Rory for Mads at Brandon strengthens them whilst Barker for Garrity definitely weakens us 😖Yes we have won at King's Lynn this year but strong teams like Wolves & Belle Vue have lost to them and they got a point at wolves with a 6man team and that was without Rory so I don't see it being easy, esp without Bates now at reserve.

stevebrum Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Hopefully KK will have a better night tonight than his last meeting You would think he should do, but you can never tell what you will get with him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Coventry have to be really bad to get beaten by KL!! Coventry to win by 8-10 pts for me. I'll be coming back to that post around 11pm tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Howarth for Lambert and Rory for Mads at Brandon strengthens them whilst Barker for Garrity definitely weakens us Yes we have won at King's Lynn this year but strong teams like Wolves & Belle Vue have lost to them and they got a point at wolves with a 6man team and that was without Rory so I don't see it being easy, esp without Bates now at reserve. To be honest Kyle is in awful form and its Rory first meeting back so don't really see that it strengthens KL. Barker in for Garrity could weaken us but Barker could easily score well tonight too, Barker should be better than R/R. 49-41 to the Bees Edited July 11, 2016 by woz01 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcatdiary Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 So when and how did Robert Lambert end up with a broken finger?, Kings Lynn web story is a bit short of detail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 So when and how did Robert Lambert end up with a broken finger?, Kings Lynn web story is a bit short of detail. He had injured it abroad during the week. Â Brandon has always been one of his worst away tracks (scores on visits 2,0,2 and 1,3,1,0,0) however I was looking forward to seeing him. All riders can take his rides which means more rides for NKI, Rory & Troy who usually ride Brandon well 😕 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star Lady Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Would he have rode at Cardiff had he the chance?

g13webb Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 He had injured it abroad during the week.  Brandon has always been one of his worst away tracks (scores on visits 2,0,2 and 1,3,1,0,0) however I was looking forward to seeing him. All riders can take his rides which means more rides for NKI, Rory & Troy who usually ride Brandon well  Lambert has made huge strides this year and I am in no doubt, he would have performed far better than his previous tallies would suggest. I'm not so sure RR will equal those points Robert would have scored.... Again we will have to wait and see.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevePark Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 But surely common sense should prevail? Howarth is a far more established rider than Wilkinson or Lambert for heavens sake irrespective of his recent EL form in fact i dont believe he should had qualified as a draft rider with his experience but that's another argument  Depends what you mean by experienced. Wilko has been riding a heck of lot longer than Howarth has. Kyle started in 2009 (at least made his debut then), Wilko made his debut in 1997!

I'm not so sure RR will equal those points Robert would have scored.... Again we will have to wait and see.... Ours has been a track he's struggled with. His highest score has been 5 from 5 rides so far at Brandon even when in form like last year and as a 2nd string. He would have been a heatleader tonight so I would think RR will easily score more than 5, 3 from NKI ride alone. At home I do think he will be a much bigger loss Edited July 11, 2016 by mdmc82 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star Fever Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 r/r for Rob def weakens Stars so i'd be surprised if Lynn even get a point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) Chris Harris is riding with an injury he got Thursday but has declared himself fit to race tonight as he doesn't want to let Coventry down.
