bigcatdiary Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Thats the thing, good home track advantage or a track both teams put 100% in? Would sheffield fans moan if they win the league on a slick boring track? You bet they do have you read any of the recent Sheffield threads. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champs99 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Lambert made the jump over Heeps in heat 10 which allowed Holder to go clear. Maybe not a bad decision after all!! I didn't think BWD looked quick all meeting, Only beat Sarjeant, who was dire, ant their reserves all night.

WembleyLion Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Well done to Jack Holder who was tremendous today - certainly way better than I've ever seen him ride before! Thanks also to the big guys at the end for smashing open the exit gates so we could get out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I don't actually no. But what if they had a grippy track and lost every week lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champs99 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 But what happens if the opposing team don't like a grippy track They could cheat and not use a dirt deflector Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I'm sure it was probably a genuine mistake. If not..your examiner should be put in the stocks and have rotten veg thrown at him/her. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagutaRacingFan Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Heeps is a cheat. He should be fined and suspended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be fined and suspended. And what would you suggest they do about the people who should have spotted it but failed miserably. Should we ban those as well 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 Shame on you Blue! Mind you I'm going to have to give it a miss too but not because of footie. With Oystermouth riding ippo must be odds-on favourites to take all 4 points. Hope it's a good day. You were saying? Must admit looking at the 2 teams on paper beforehand I thought Ipswich would easily win. 46-44 to the Panthers I reckon. Close. Quite enjoyed that as a neutral. Me too, although not truly neutral as I wanted the Panthers to win. Is it me or has Simon Lambert got a really weird style of riding? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maneacat Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Somebody needs to go to Specsavers - how on earth you could NOT award Man of the Match to Jack Holder yesterday totally defies belief. No disrespect intended to Bradley who also rode well but Jack was simply brilliant and our match winner. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crump99 Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 So I had a run in with the Health & Safety numpties yesterday, I've been going to the EOES on and off for the last 30 years or so and have always stood at the back of the stand, after a couple of races some jumped up knuckle dragging neanderthal (what I assume was a) woman with a face like a slapped arse and wearing the all empowering high-vis jacket told us in no uncertain terms to move and we couldn't stand there, why not I asked? Health & Safety it grunted, well find us a couple of seats I asked as it appeared from the top of the stand that it was full... except for the whole section blocked off, what about there I asked, it's taped off it grunted, why? Health & Safety. OK I'll move after this race I said (as it was just about to start), no move now it it spewed with no hint of a personality, after the race I said. At this point it dragged it's knuckles off to go and get backup. It returned with the cavalry, the race was an unsatisfactory start and again I said to the now (I think, head steward) I'll move along after the race... no you've got to move now, but they were lining up at the tapes, so we both stood back and watched it. After the race, after we had both calmed down a bit, I had quite an interesting chat with this steward. It turns out that to get a licence to run from Peterborough Council that they have to have these H&S stewards, the section of the grandstand was taped off because they don't have enough volunteer stewards to man all sections, 1 steward for 250 people, no stewards and no standing or no speedway as simple as that. The steward told me that he's having to do an NVQ course also. I almost felt like volunteering after our chat, but as I live in Leicester and don't always go Peterborough, I can't really do it. It's a shame that the stewards and Peterborough Speedway don't explain the reasons for the no standing rule and the sectioning off of the grandstand in more detail as then people may be a bit more sympathetic to them when told to move along... having said that some of the stewards also need to go on a "how to talk to the public" course as a simple explanation in the first place could have saved a bit of agro. From the tone of that I doubt that you'd be sympathetic under any circumstances. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
