cyclone Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 Teams as per Official Edinburgh website:- STAGGS BAR MONARCHS: Ricky Wells, Victor Palovaara, Josh Pickering, Richie Worrall, Erik Riss (captain), William Lawson, Joel Andersson. ALLIED VEHICLES TIGERS: Ben Barker (Guest), Nathan Greaves (if fit), Chris Harris (captain), Paul Starke, Claus Vissing, James Sarjeant, Jack Thomas. Due to Craig Cook missing for the Polish Grand Prix, Tigers have recruited the all action Ben Barker as a Guest replacement. If Nathan Greaves is unable to return for this match, then R/R will apply with Paul Starke & the Reserves able to cover his rides, though a TS is also a possibilty, should Tigers be six points behind for his scheduled 2nd & 4th programmed rides. For Monarchs this will be the third consecutive match in 3 days for Wells & Worrall, and the fourth in three days for Erik Riss, so it will be an endurance test for men & machine in their case.

Endeavour Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 Don’t know how this one will go. Would settle for 50 40 but a) which Ben Barker will turn up? b) Hope tracks is like a fortnight ago and not last week. c) Starke and Serjeant can be handy round Dale if they gate. Bomber all gives it a 100%. Vissing quite handy this year. d) Need our reserves scoring. Maybe Lawson will have a new Hoover engine. e) Come on Richie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharpenRake Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) See from other sites some Tigers fans a bit disappointed with cookies replacement. Hope it doesn't affect the crowd and Ben proves them wrong, At least Redcar aren't contenders for the play offs and you can be sure he'll give it a go Despite this optimism easy win for monarchs Edited August 23, 2018 by SharpenRake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 If Edinburgh don't hit 60 with there home track advantage then you will need to question there commitment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cinderfella Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Would have thought Glasgow would have been better going with r/r for Cookie allowing anyone an extra ride and a guest for Greaves if he's not fit. But then again nothing should surprise us with Glasgow's managers tactics (or lack of them) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White flag raised in advance with that booking. Total lack of aspiration. We've known about this for around 5 weeks since Cook signed.
