Rebels V Wolves.


Recommended Posts

 

No it wouldn't, but historically crowds have always tended to be lower when we have ridden on a Wednesday (or any other night) rather than the usual Friday night, so the use of a Wednesday is generally used only when the club have no other option.

Probably because people have got used to doing other things on that night. If Somerset were to change to another night and keep it regular as that night, then what's to say it wouldn't improve?

 

I really don't understand how the Club or Council think Friday is a good night to race, considering the absolute carnage of the M5 on that night. How many riders, fans etc find they are running late because of it.

 

A mid week or Saturday/Sunday would be better imo.

When is this on? Friday? Title needs to include date.

Well judging by the comments about the weather, also the post before yours saying it's on, I've managed to add 2 and 2 together, made 4 and have worked out pretty easily that it's tonight. I mean no promoter cancels 48 hours ahead of a match due to the weather forecast do they? Err......wait a minute......I'm pretty sure that has happened.

Well, another loss but not surprising. I'd rather we use a Guest than have Perks ride for us again to be honest - tries his best but nowhere near good enough to be a no6.

 

Should've got a draw at least when you look at the results but getting a 5-0 against us towards the end of the meeting proved costly. Another off night for Schlein to put it mildly - has been like that for 3 of his past 4 meetings now.

 

Well rode by Freddie, Howarth, Jacob and Greaves though.

How was Charles Wright in heat 15? 4th in the avesges and joint lowest (6th highest) scorer. Rules say top 3 by average or top 3 by score.

 

Anyway, Somerset now 3 points behind Poole in 4th with a meeting in hand.

Was one of Somersets top 3 withdrawn ill near the end of the match, other than that it's a fair question.

Exactly my thought (as posted on updates).

 

Incidentally last Friday at Somerset every single Somerset rider was eligible for heat 15!!!

Nope, rule says:

 

(NB: No facility is available allowing another rider to be elevated to the qualified list if any

of those top 3 points scorers are unavailable due to be withdrawn or has no equipment).

How can Shovlar say Perks is a great little rider.Doubt if he would be saying that if he was turning out these scores for Poole.We can't make the same mistake again next season, starting with two weak reserves.

Rode very well for Rye House. Perhaps he just hasn't been made to feel very welcome at Wolves.
