gazzac Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 (edited) I think Kent were at a peak the last time they played us at Arlington and caught us slightly off guard and we didn't perform that well. Even if we have to go r/r for Jake, I think after the spirit of the first leg, I'm hoping it'll be normal service resumed with a 6/8 point win . If we hit them hard in the first half dozen heats and get a fair lead, could even be a bigger win.

TurnTwo Posted October 4, 2017 Report Share Posted October 4, 2017 I agree and I cant see Rowe doing what hunter did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaboy279 Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 Think what is key is Bradley Andrews fitness, if his hand can handle it the with a seven man team (no disrespect to Macaulay Leek) I think we have every chance. Don't think a single supporter of either side will walk in Saturday and feel at all comfortable. In some ways I can see the atmosphere being somewhat subdued with us all biting our nails. Let's just hope the riders decide this on track and not some ref making bad calls either way in the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrscambelt Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 A fantastic night of speedway as Kelvin say straight out the top draw. As for Bradley Andrews i think he has to stay on his bike to make it count this time, his record at Eastbourne for cradley and Kent is not the best, My thougths are why would you want to hurt your your and again or take a chance on a track thats not your best. Surprised with the performance of Anders Rowe this season he is a surprise at Kent but as you have seen his away peformance on certain tracks is very poor, I think he has only scored a few point as Eastbourne in the last 3 visits. JackThomas is very hit and miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 Agree with first bend bunch Kent are a team when firing unstoppable but many question marks over all of them also one rider I must say who has gone backwards is Dan Greenwood, 2015 he was guesting for number ones and rode in the league above, now I see he is riding at number 2.

gazzac Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 I see there's a fixture at Arlington on Sunday 29th at 6.00pm, Forman IT Eagles vs Eastbourne,does anyone know what that is? The forecast for this Saturday is horrible,so would have thought that date should have been put by for the Ko cup final( preferably 3.30) if it does get rained off this Saturday as the 28th is taken by stockcars.

Guest Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Some info on the challenge match is on Twitter. Tuesday 31st is a reserved date according to the official site. Info also appears on Facebook. You have to get used to trawling through the sites :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to get used to trawling through the sites :-) Some of us older folk tend not to venture too much on social media, but you'd still think they'd put something on the club website as well, although I expect that'll disappear at some point and it'll only be Facebook or Twitter.Still think it unwise to have the 31st as a reserve date, if wet that's it, could be no conclusion to the ko cup if we don't run this Saturday.

gazzac Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 All current fixtures are on the club website..and have been for some time, including the challenge IT First Eagles v Forman IT Eagles, plus reserve dates. I looked at lunchtime on Monday and the extra match was there. They are called FIXTURES I did see the FIXTURES, but there was no mention of what the challenge match was about on the website, only on Facebook and Twitter, having put the fixture up, I would have assumed they'd have given a bit of info about it at the same time as loading the fixture on.

cityrebel Posted October 21, 2017 Report Share Posted October 21, 2017 I hope they make an early decision. I don't fancy travelling in risky weather later. The forecast looks much better tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
