stevebrum Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 A huge test ahead as the Aces always go well at the Green. Time for Clegg to have his best meeting with 2 weak Aces reserves. We won't be saying that at the end of the season that's for sure. We need decent performances from 1-5 to nullify the potential of a good score from Worrall whilst Bjerre has had some superb meetings here although not in recent seasons. That said he seems to have hit the ground running from the off. A win of any sort will be good , so will go for 47-43. Opinions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by Bewley's score tonight, I am not sure how "weak" the Belle Vue reserves are! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aces51 Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) A tough match tomorrow which could go either way. Lindgren, Thorsell and Masters are difficult to beat at home and if Skornicki has solved his mechanical problems he should be good for 6 or 7 points. However, Bjerre is on fire, Cook has had an excellent start to the season and Worrall usually does well at Wolverhampton. I think Bewley will be the best of the four reserves but the deciding factor could be Fricke, who has yet to impress this season and whether Smith can pick up a few points. A narrow Aces victory 44-46. Edited April 17, 2017 by Aces51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acef Posted April 17, 2017 Report Share Posted April 17, 2017 I think one or two have underestimated belle vue s reserves this season. 15 point max for Bewley tonight. Popping wheelies on the back straight he was that far ahead. Clegg and Greaves will have no answer. (I hope) Wolves top 5 are different gravy at home, so it will be a tough meeting. I'd have took a point before a wheel was turned this season but the way we've started I think BV really need to be looking at winning this meeting. Reserves weren't weak on Friday, and nice run out for Bewley tonight. I think run out is apt. It's one meeting I know, but you could see last year he was showing signs in the PL that he was probably going to be a step ahead of the NL this year. He could burn himself out with the all meetings. He's been putting in good scores for Glasgow from 2nd string and critically he's winning races whilst doing it. Early I know, but he's far far too good for the NL.

I rate both of them have made that clear many times. On paper they are weak compared to other teams but I grant you they are both definitely a huge talent. Time for Clegg to step up.

On paper they are weak compared to other teams but I grant you they are both definitely a huge talent. Time for Clegg to step up. I see your thinking Steve and I'd agree on paper, certainly at the start, you'd look and think potential. But Bewley is delivering. He's actually proving that potential every meeting. He's averaging 6 for Glasgow from 2nd string in his first full season of PL. Beat Andersen this year. Little things like that. I think people look at that baby face and seriously underestimate him. He's a smiling assassin I think Smith is a better example of potential. He's chipping in with points, nothing major, but you can see he will make it if he applies himself and given the right guidance. I think Bewley will go into 2nd string at some point this season. Sedgman will drop to reserve. You heard it here first 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perton Wolf Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Important for us to hang in there and win our home meetings whilst we await the release of the new averages so we can change things. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyderd Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Underestimate Wolves at home, me never. I think we can come away from tonight's meeting with a point,but Wolves to get 2.............Wolves by 2-4 points win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil The Ace Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I think wolves will get a narrow win 47-43 Wolves top end will see wolves pull away later in the meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beowulf Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 We are currently operating, at best, as a 5 man team. This makes winning any match particularly difficult, and puts so much pressure on the top 4. I am hoping for a win, but it would be no surprise at all to see a aces take the points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 Can see it being the usual BV performance at Monmore again.. Thorsell will have another good night against us, and Skornicki will get seven or eight.. We will get more than 40 and probably pick up a point but come away, like we usually do when we leave Monmore thinking 'what might have been'.. Obviously hope I am wrong and we get 60...!!😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyclone Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 BELIEVE that last year's tyres are now permitted. Another knee-jerk decision by the BSPA that has backfired. If this is correct, would be interesting to see if anyone reverts to the 2016 versions. There was a rumour that Clegg was unhappy with the new hard compound tyres, so will he be using the softer tyre instead, if permitted, tonight?

yoda Posted April 18, 2017 Report Share Posted April 18, 2017 I have also heard that last years tyre is permitted as long as all 14 riders agree prior to the meeting. however I also believe that their is not enough of these red banded tyres in circulation in the uk.

I believe there seemed to be a big discussion and issue about which tyres to use at Swindon on Sunday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
