Seemed to be a lot of retirements from our riders and disappointing if not unexpected from Lingren. Really needs to sort himself out.

Same old lindgren I hope he doesn’t stay at number 1 for too long ! Hopefully we can make a change or two after a couple of months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he is our Captain and Number One. Just turned out to be more sh!te than the rest. Hence, I assume the comments. Hope things change for him soon, or we are in for a long hard Season.

Cue Ball Posted April 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 A nice easy workout for the Tigers to kick off the season, I’m sure there will be sterner tests to come. Howarth, Bjerre and Wright were unstoppable, Kurtz only just missed out on his maximum too. Shanes and Smith showed glimpses of what is to come, both were within a whisker of getting a hat full of points against far more experienced opposition. The future is bright on tonight’s performance.

Stoneroses Posted April 5, 2018 Report Share Posted April 5, 2018 Sheffield 59 Newcastle 31, great to see both Jack and James get their first paid wins, Kyle, Charles and Lasse unbeaten and solid showing from Todd. For Newcastle Wilkinson Morris looked good, Robson and wethers had a go but the rest dreadfull only points they got was against reserves, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OdsalBoy Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 amazing night for the tigers and with a fit Bates in that team we look pretty darn good, Wright looking very stylish with Owlerton as his new home track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spin king junior Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Did newcastle forget about the tac sub rule in place this season? Wouldn't have made a bit of difference, but was odd to see it not coming into play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think there saving them all up for just for home matches now to get double points every time you do not use them away..

Cue Ball Posted April 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Haven’t double points gone now? And somebody said last night that you couldn’t use tac subs in this competition... don’t know how true that is, maybe they just couldn’t persuade anybody to have the extra ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewbacca Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Highlighted every weakness in the Diamonds team. If Wilko and Morris can’t score at least 8 at reserve we have no chance. That said, we have lost by more at Sheffield with better teams on paper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graz gp Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 A very easy win for the Tigers. Watching Charles Wright flying around the boards on the second bend reminded me of a certain Mr Stead with his riding style, great to watch. Howarth and Bjerre looked as though they have carried on from last season. Kurtz was the same, if he could get a doubling up place i think he could really kick on. The two reserves looked very promising, both can gate and looked on the pace. They will only get better. So overhall very good. I know it was only the first match but it will be a very long season for the Newcastle on that showing. utt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
