Islander15 Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 Lakeside take a 16 point lead to the NSS but the Colts have Bewley & Smith riding. However the Hammers conveniently have Nick Laurence R/R and have brought Edwards into reserve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hammers' website just says 'unavailable' re Nick - read into that what you will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted October 5, 2017 Report Share Posted October 5, 2017 Maybe he is locked up somewhere for impersonating a speedway rider hope its the last we see of him to be honest when it comes to wearing the Hammers race jacket. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waco Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 This second leg is now poised to go to the wire ,,good luck to all the Hammers tonight.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East End Fan Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Wish I could get to this one. Will be a great meeting without a doubt. Could go either way and the inclusion of Jason Edwards seems a sensible move. Great prospect if we win to face either Eagles or Kings in the Final. Either way should put a smile on Cook's face with the prospect of a decent crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobC Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Best of luck to the Colts tonight. Hope they go on to win and complete a League and Cup double. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bellevueace Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 (edited) Well the Colts have not failed to win by less than 16 all season at home and that's without Lee Payne who was averaging around 9, with Dan and Jack back along with Rob, and Kyle I expect the Colts to pull this back, if the Hammers restrict us to less than 16 it will be a great effort from them.

Phil The Ace Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 With Jason Edwards getting 7 rides this could be closer than ppl think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzac Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 A lot depends on the first 5/6 heats, if Lakeside hold their own and all of a sudden it's still a 15 point deficit with 9 heats to go anything can happen, on the flip side a few 5/1's to BV and a 4/6 deficit will quickly come to them and they'll romp away and be in the final.

teaboy279 Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Regulation win for BV by about 30 points I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 A lot rests on Clegg, Hurry and Morley, all riders capable of hitting double figures on most tracks, but on this one?.......................................................

solrac Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 Same old story, no matter what division we are in, hopeless away. Tbf, everyone gets slaughtered at Belle Vue. Not sure if it's to do with the bike set ups or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acef Posted October 6, 2017 Report Share Posted October 6, 2017 At the end of the day this is national league racing and all about development. I actually think it's a pretty sad state of affairs that in a league dominated by young British riders, the closest any team has got to the Colts is 16 points at the NSS. It's a big fast race track and 90% haven't a clue how to ride it. Out of the box, we are not producing enough talent. Only Watjenect has done anything of note here and he is clearly a talent. Otherwise, apart from home riders, where Dan Bewley is an outrageous talent, there really isn't anything. As a nation we need to get our heads around big fast tracks. They'll never make it otherwise. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
