Belle Vue V Lakeside Wed 3rd August


Recommended Posts

R/R for your number 1?????

Ok with that rather than guests as it at least keeps some credibility....

 

However, where it unravels is that Lakeside should be able to use any of their 2 - 6 as many times as needed up to a max of seven rides for any individual. Eg The two heat leaders should be able to take two rides each of the No1's races it the team manager wishes..

 

Instead, four riders get one ride each meaning second strings or even reserves replacing a No1...

Exactly! Where's the credibility in that ?

Sadly tonight, it looks like even 10 rides each from the heat leaders wont help!!

 

Ouch....

 

In Boxing the ref would step in about now....!

I thought I saw him in the riders viewing area, but I stand to be corrected.

Tatum says on the club website - " We were desperately disappointed when we heard he couldn't travel"

So they knew much earlier.

Once again the fans being manipulated by withholding information

Belle Vue appear to be very good at saying nothing until the last minute, friday Hancock, today AJ. But had I had the information, I would not have gone tonight. This time BV got my money but will there be a next time. They can take the piss out of some people some of the time but not all of the people all of the time. After Friday and tonight I have no other thoughts than Belle Vue are robbing b-------s.

How can you blame Belle Vue for riders not turning up ? Both Hancock and Jonsson have offered lame excuses .I found out about Hancock's no show on the day of the meeting having already bought my ticket.Jonsson probably rang in sick today bet he rides on Friday.Its the riders in these cases who are taking the piss not Belle Vue.

What do you expect them to do, issue a press release? I presume you bought your swc tickets in advance, and therefore at that time bv would have had no idea. Was that even a bv promoted event?

As for aj, when u go to a speedway meeting, or any sports event, you know there is the possibility of a competitor being absent. You clearly have Internet access so could have done your own research on this.

Oh hang on..got me.. you are trolling aren't you...

Some good racing tonight which the scoreline didnt reflect, Lawson rode pretty well and was always in the mix, AJ apparently had food poisoning hence his late withdrawl. The Hammers have a team of home track experts but thats not enough to be challenging for honours, you also need to be picking up points away from home. No doubt the tables will be turned on friday but im looking forward to the trip as its my first time at Lakeside in a few seasons.

Looks like Belle Vue are dialled in on their track now. Perhaps they might now risk riding against Poole.

How about arranging that A fixture rained off months ago?

I think we're trying to fit in some of the top teams first.

 

 

Despite the score there was some good racing tonight. Lakeside were unfortunate that AJ was suffering from food poisoning and he certainly would have scored more than r/r achieved. Kennett and Bridger had their moments and Lawson was solid but overall they were very poor and Jonsson would have only turned a mauling into a heavy defeat.

 

It was one of those nights when every Belle Vue rider and King did well. There were no weak links anywhere, evidenced by only one last place. I doubt any team would have fared well against us.
