Tom could be in for a hat full tomorrow, never heard of their reserve so will be surprised if he does much. I shall be surprised if we lose this as they are weakened in the areas where we are strongest.

Is that serious or are you sending me up. Many years working for an American Fortune 500 company and going there four times a year and I never heard of that?

Surely they have spoken of ' ******* victory from the jaws of defeat'

Quite serious. These forum programs are American and tend to censor American obscenties, but not British ones! I can't mention what this particular slang word means in a public forum, but let's just say that, being a man, I don't have one ... :oops:

Sadly it looks like Kent are going out with a whimper rather than a fight? Hopwood is a decent guest but not a match winner like Danny. Clifton has had a disappointing season in my opinion and not being able to keep Thomas in a reserve berth has sunk the Kings season.

As for Eastie they have the right to use & name whoever they like at reserve however Harris was fit enough to ride 2 classes at a grasstrack last weekend so cannot be suffering too badly!

Having seen both Kent and Eastbourne at Monmore recently, Eastbourne are currently the strongest Team, and there is the likelihood of both finals being between Brum and Eastbourne.. who will win it all hinges on how tight the Eaglets can keep it up at Perry Barr, sorry Kent but Eastie will win through.

Quite possibly or his Dad cannot get the time away from work? I rate Harris over Powell anyway in terms of riding ability and nothing to do with his hilarious attempts to lay on the track and get and all 4 back :rofl:

Harris is a more solid rider then Powell... don't know if you've ever had it but watching Powell going into the corner I hold my breath wondering if he'll come out the other side

Routine home win, good job etc etc but disappointing in terms of a spectacle. Considering that this was the 2nd leg of the play off semi final with the scores close, I have to say the event lacked thrills or excitement.

 

The racing was generally processional and the number of passes could be counted on one hand.

Kent had little chance in 2nd leg,but without Ayres - NO chance.

I think this just shows what a joke doubling up is.

Ayres rides in a MEANINGLESS meeting for Glasgow?

Joke. :mad:

 

 

I see the Glasgow match didnt take place as the flood lights failed. So while Kent were being trounced by Eastbourne, Danny Ayres was twiddling his thumbs. Even more frustrating for him, Kent Management, Kent fans and any other fans.

Shame really as he may well have added a be of a spark last night even if not changing the result much.

Yes,agree.

He would not of changed result but would of added entertainment.

Ended up a complete joke that he did NOT ride at all.
