FromAFar- Not sure there is much in it Berwick to Leicester for Doolan or East Sussex to Leicester for Ed K. Although I did hear that the beer was rather good at the Longtrack in Germany last night

Can I just say "Congratulations Leicester" on winning your first ever national team trophy. This was a consummate performance by a thoroughly balanced team. I can only say to the other three play off teams, "Beware".

"did Cook bother to go "

waco .. that's a good question.  

another good question might be......why did Schlein not line up for the Eagles at number 1  ? 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Schlein average too high to cover Away as no 5% add on....basic stuff so wake up in Herne Bay!

Predictable result ,,and no sympathy from me Kennet as bad as Woods ,,totally unreliable ,,did Cook bother to go .?

No sign of Cook.

Not a great advert as once again Leicester track not in great condition, lots of falls on first bend and a bit one sided in the end although no lack of effort from Eastie.

Good to see Leicester win a trophy though and very decent Crowd at both Fixtures I believe, certainly good at Leicester.

Ooh you little tinker! That must be where he picked his "knock" up from... aggravated his back opening a bottle of beer

There's 2 great gaping holes on the first turn where it's been worn down to the base, it's been like that for at least half the season. How often does Scott Nicholls come off on his own?

Scotty showed over those two matches that he can raise his game when he needs to, and help to get better performances from team mates. A real captains performance and let's hope he can replicate it for the playoffs. Just one thing to sort out, though, Dougy and him have a tendency to both go for the same piece of track at the same time, they need to sort that out asap!

The post-match presentation would have been much improved if the track lights had been switched on for it, even just those on the home straight. It was a bit difficult to pick them out of the fading daylight. And yes, that first bend problem also needs sorting.
