tocha Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 (edited) No preview on either website yet. Lakeside will have Zach (injured) and Alfie (Newcastle) missing. My choice would be two guests rather than RR, maybe Steve Boxall again and Anders Rowe appears to be available. As far as I know, Mildenhall are at full strength.

adz_mft Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Jake Knight and Luke Priest come into the Lakeside line up. After the passing of his father, I doubt Sam Woods will be riding tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimmo Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Lets hope we can all see an enjoyable meeting this afternoon, no matter which team you/we favour. Â Have a safe one everybody. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tocha Posted August 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Well done Mildenhall, sharper from the gate and employed better tactics. Lakeside were poor in all departments, just two heat winners one of which was the bizarre reserves race where both Tigers' fell leaving Couzins chugging along to take the chequered flag, and poor choice of guests. I cannot see them making the play-offs and could fninish as low as seventh. Locke is showing signs of improvement despite falling off on a regular basis but Couzins and Laurence are worse than useless and must go.

Priest was the stand out option on that average for Bowtell and Knight had been motoring on his comeback and just had an off night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckerroo Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 For me mildy are the best home team in the league, plenty get a hood hiding at west row Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk127 Posted August 20, 2017 Report Share Posted August 20, 2017 Disappointed and had expected Lakeside to put up more of a challenge but well done to Mildenhall. Sorry about the delay but obviously the paramedics did a great job and we wish the supporter well and a speedy return. The way they got through those races after the delay really shows what can be done if they put a mind to it. And finally what a change to restarts without messing about. Riders straight back to the tapes. Other leagues and riders take note, these lads put you to shame. Thanks for a reasonable meeting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couzins was arguably worth a punt but Laurence should never have been in the team in the first place. I can't remember the last time, if ever, I saw a rider in the 1-5 of any team that was so unsuited to the sport. I don't know what goes through Jon Cooks mind these days. In the past he has invariably managed to put together a team that was at least competitive and entertaining but he seems to have totally lost the plot these days.

cityrebel Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 I was there yesterday, and it was a poor performance by the hammers. The whole club seems to be treading water at the moment. With a lack of any real leadership, it does make me fear for the future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAMMER180 Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 I was there and must agree that it is time to make a couple of changes nick started out ok but the last couple of months he seems to have lost confidence big time just scoring 1 or 2 points and not looking comfortable at all coming of the gas at every bend and ending up the length of the straight behind everyone else also you can see the pits from where we were and seemed to be no team spirit at all looked like jon was not there and kelvin didn't seem to be that interested and had his rucksack on ready to shoot before tapes up last race no team talk then?. we do need to strengthen if we are to make the playoffs a new 2nd string and 1 reserve I might have to stop going away as the last dozen or so I have been we have been trounced maybe I am bad luck well I am known as lucky dave.

liam Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Lakeside have been terrible away for ever so I don't think it's you HAMMER 180 but I do agree we could do with replacing Laurence and Cousins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Voice Of Reason Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 I know i joke about Cook not travelling further North than Watford but Mildenhall, really?Maybe he got stuck in traffic on the A11 whilst eating his dinner? Meanwhile, unfair criticism of Kelvin Tatum (above) - he's a very busy man. Do you know how much effort it takes each week being on tele; digging a screwdriver into the dirt and naming each clubs' Number 1 as "the rider to watch Nige"?

25yearfan Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 OK meeting but Mildenhall are too strong on their home turf which made Lakeside with their 3 passengers, easy pickings! Â Unfortunately due to the large number of teams in the 3rd tier and the shortage of riders, journeyman tyre packers like Laurence are needed to enable teams to make up the numbers. I'm sure if their was better options about then Lakeside would of done something about it! Yes the whole Lakeside set up with dropping down the Leagues, the lack of meetings, Jon Cook not even bothering to go to away matches and the team not serious challengers seems very stale and just going to through the motions. This doesn't bode well for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Regent Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Do we know Cook wasn't there, or is it just that the people who went and posted on here didn't see him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted August 22, 2017 Report Share Posted August 22, 2017 I was near to the pits for most of the meeting. Kelvin was there on his own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
