A ORLOV Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Ex Zummerrzet roiders Doyley and Morra. They have got as good a chance as any other pair, but if the points are 4320 Jason will need to learn to look behind him and team ride. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes not as good a team rider as fellow Aussie Leigh Adams, who led the Robins to two successive superb Pairs titles in 2004/5, with Charlie Gjedde and the late Lee Richardson.

SomersetBlue Posted March 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Harris and Nicholls for the Rockets. I'll wager there will be at least one change to the 8 pairs named to date!!!!!! Missing a trick as Kennett is brilliant around the OTA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Najjer Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Missing a trick as Kennett is brilliant around the OTA. I always thought he was pretty garbage at the OTA, although it should suit him. I seem to recall him saying himself before he can't get his head around the place. They have got as good a chance as any other pair, but if the points are 4320 Jason will need to learn to look behind him and team ride. He's probably just too quick! Nick Morris although he spent a few seasons riding for us still never got to grips with the track completely, so I wouldn't expect miracles from him.

SteveLyric2 Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 I do hope the scoring is 4320 otherwise its not a proper Pairs meeting!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall him saying himself before he can't get his head around the place. Last time he rode he scored 14 for Rye House. Also looking at the picture on Facebook the lineup is 1. Tungate 2. Starke 3. Wright 4. Hougaard 5. Grajczonek 6. Allen 7. Graversen Thought they may have gone with Hougaard at 5 to add more strength in heat 13. Also like the look of the race suits.

Knowing Garry bet the away riding order will be different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 The rules this season only state that the highest average rider must ride at 1 and the lowest average must ride and remain at 7. The 2nd lowest average starts at 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Najjer Posted March 17, 2017 Report Share Posted March 17, 2017 Yep like those race suits a lot. An example for a lot of clubs to follow - all matching perfectly with no mish mash of different colours and size logos. Very smart! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomersetBlue Posted March 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Did anyone go last night? How did the lads go? For the time they were on track? Also any changes to stadium/ track? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred5 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 What is the format for this meeting, two groups of four, with SF and final ? As there are no replies to this post, am I to assume then, that non of you very knowledgeable speedway folks know what the format of the Premiership Pairs meeting will be ?

Your original assumption is correct. Two Groups of 4 = 12 Heats Winner A v 2nd B Winner B v 2nd A S/F Winners to Final. 4,3,2,0. Scoring in all heats. 15 Races in all.

SomersetBlue Posted March 18, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 It was rained off. Not sure if any got any track time tho. I think they got some in as that is what the social media says. They didn't finish, might have been the practice laps they had. Anyway great move by the promotion to refund the Coventry matches to the season ticket holders and credit to the fans who refused and gave the money to the club to help Jake and Hougaard with tyres. Rebels fans are great. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Garry May wants to keep the successful Josh and Jake partnership together. Certainly seemed to know where each other were last year. moreover, the Wright/Starke partnership has been severed, which in my opinion is the right decision too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
