Somerset were much sharper out of the gate than us tonight even making Harris look like an unreal starter... that said Jorgensen and Bjerre were pretty pathetic. Worrall wasn’t much better and he looked really slow and wasn’t making starts at all. 

Luckily we had Clegg if we didn’t who knows what the score would’ve been. 

Totally agree, maybe if Clegg had the extra 2 rides though we would of drew/won! I dont mind if riders on form but we only had Clegg on form and Danny Phillips did well, the rest were average/poor and slow out of the gate.

Clegg did have one extra ride didn’t he? Bjerre was unlucky I think in heat 12 he was trying to protect Clegg until Schlein got past him then Bjerre just gave up which I hate.

Yes but could of had 7 in total, and the way our other lads were riding he should have.

I might of been tempted to put him in heat 13 in place of Jorgensen but that would of gave him 5 on the trot ( including heat 15) .. Who would be a team manager

Yes i thought of heat 13 maybe if was up to it but also could of been in heat 9, and should always be in heat 8. Yes it means Phillips has to stay in heat 12 but should guarantee you a 5-1 in heat 8.

Our manager seems to make same changes and it never varies at all, and never gets extra rides apart from heat 14.

Yes after the 5-1 in 14 I thought Wethers would of been in 15.

Unfortunately we were gating poorly tonight and got beat off a 4 man team, I was very surprised especially with how well Morris rode. 

Yeah he either rides brough class or terrible there's nee in-between with him

. He scores less than 6 or over 10 & unfortunately for us it was his over 10 head on today

Too true. A couple of our "Riders????" Should be looking over their shoulders. Jorgensen or Bjerre should have been taken out in one of their earlier races. Other teams,in fact every other team in the League do this. If one of their reserves is flying nearly always give him 7 rides. Newcastle do not. Bjerre and Jorgensen cost us tonight. If Jorgensen not fit use R/R for him. Rubbish tonight on his 250.cc.

Unfortunately. And unfortunately we had too many underpowered tonight. Jorgensen terrible. He was always a good gater for all the teams he rode for before he signed for us. Now he's rubbishe.

Roy Clarke was TM tonight, not George English.

Who said it was George English? Makes no difference. Still the same decisions.

Yes i know, regardless of which one it is nothing changes in regards to swapping riders, it very rarely happens apart from the obvious heat 14.

Yep. Always.

I used to like Jorgensen. Now I don't. But I should know better I know some of the problems rider have. Should be more sympathetic. But sorry I'm not.

A don't think Steve Worrall was upto much tonight either, would have definitely put Wethers in ht15.

Yes. Totally agree. At least Matty can gate. Possibly still the same result but Worrall's gating has been shocking recently. A 3-3 would have been enough.

Top 5 cost Newcastle tonight.

Yes they did. Too many machinery not quick enough. I thought 250 cc. Not allowed??
