stevebrum Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Despite RR I think the Aces too strong at home, maybe closer at Monmore tho now with a narrow home win 47-43. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said he improved massively as the night went on. Was tailed off big time in his opening ride but it was clear he got it sorted. Anyway, I was simply refuting the suggestion that Ford decided to 'get rid' and opt to go with RR in the 2nd leg.. no logic to that at all.

According to the updates , he had a blinder in heat 13 and done naff all the rest of the night. One race , before his win, it said he looked to be going through the motions? either way, whether he walked or was sack, for a GP rider to come in and score 5 from 5 on a track he has done many laps on is not good enough.

Steve Shovlar Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Lindback rang Ford with belly ache. No chance for Matt to do anything but r/r and we were stuffed before a wheel had turned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Updates was talking nonsense that night.. for instance it stated that Lindback was just going through the motions after his 4th ride.. after just stating he had passed Karlsson.. and in the race prior to that he had passed Woffinden before chasing down Thorsell and involved in a wheel to wheel tussle passing him and then being pipped on the line. Then Heat 13 he stormed past Masters, shoving him wide to allow Holder through into 2nd. He was selected for Heat 15, that says more than enough regarding the improvement he had made during the meeting. He came last in that race, but let's not forget it was Lindgren and Woffinden he was up against, plus a flying Holder (max). So, as I said, after his first ride when he was miles behind (bike problems maybe) he was in the thick of the action. If Ford wanted someone to cry off he'd have chosen Bjarne Pedersen.

BWitcher Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 Scoreline very flattering towards Wolves. RR for Bewley has netted 1pt? Would have been a 20pt+ win with him in the side. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
