topaz325 Posted October 18, 2018 Report Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) The first meeting in this double header versus Lakeside is the second leg of the Championship Shield trophy cup medal medallion locket, so by Friday night we will know what sort of lead (?) the Hammers have to bring to Derwent Park. The second meeting is a League fixture the abandoned one from a few weeks ago but one we must complete , if nothing else but to prove the professionalism of the sport. Such a shame the last meetings that are vital for the Comets are all finals and are squeezed into a few days in October when really the League fixtures should have been completed by August , leaving September and worst case scenario October free for the finals. Hope Rasmus is fit and well for the last weeks of the season, rider of the year for the Comets. Good luck Worky.

Bryce Posted October 18, 2018 Report Share Posted October 18, 2018 I wouldn't be shocked if the meaningless league fixture gets used for manipulation of rider averages with next year in mind. Let's just hope both sides get through the match injury free. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko Posted October 19, 2018 Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 Scoring zero in speedway is really easy, look down at bike, pull onto centre green, walk bike back to pits at completion of race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godzilla Posted October 19, 2018 Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 (edited) Good performance from the Comets tonight. Hopefully Ty is ok to race tomorrow, but what are the rules on guests for tomorrow? If Ty is unable I'd like to see Ben Barker back, he did a good job guesting last time. (Ah found out Ben is injured so forget that one) Edited October 19, 2018 by Godzilla Ben is injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on the comets you can do it Oh no poor Ty, is this going to screw up his chance of visa for next year? He can't make 7 average and now can't compete in his state championships right? Tero rode well against us last time he was at Derwent Park so should be a good guest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
