but  its well known that proper manc  footie fans support the blue side and all the man you fans come from outside manchester , as you pointed out ...glory hunters . 

Followed them from 1960 or earlier marra, City always played right way though.

Been saying all week that 12 points would be enough , seems to me the second half of the meeting some of our riders  seem to fall off the pace , rather be 12 in front going into the away leg than 12 behind going into the home leg , Newcastle will give it a go but with  Riss and Wright and probably Adam Ellis I feel we have enough with our big boys to bring the cup to Teesside,  UTB

Hope I am wrong tomorrow, I have always said its the reserves that win matches, heat leaders normally cancel each other out, and I think the Diamonds 6 and 7 will have too much for our two!,.

 

 

Can't see Newcastle pulling 12 points back , Greaves will pull something out of the bag when we need it , can't for the life of me seeing Newcastle winning by more than 6 points at the most

Agree with what you say about the reserves, but Clegg needs to get back to a bit of form. With Wright, Riss and Ellis, you have potentially 3 riders that could go unbeaten by a Diamond, whereas as I couldn't be as confident about even 1 Diamond doing the same.

Get the 'Mr Sheen' out JD ;)

Anything can happen as we all know , but I think you will agree that 12 points is a handy lead and as a Newcastle fan you can't see how they can pull that deficit back , may get 6 to 8 points back but unless we have a disaster then we are firm favourites for the cup

Yeah, 12  is good, but I did expect it to be a bit bigger.

It's a bit like when you go somewhere, it seems a long way but its always easier to get back.

That's what Poole probably thought against Ipswich in there semi play off... But there again the bears top 3 + Anderson will do enough I think.. unless clegg can show his early to mid season form & worrall & bjerre produce at least 10 points apiece I can see us maybe pulling it back. But it will have to be by heat 6 to give us a chance lifting the cup but whatever the result let's hope it's a case of all riders put on a good meeting without any injuries,, at least the gems have silverware tho.. I hope the diamonds can do the same but it will be tough

if newcastle all fire together they will win overall, but Clegg wethers bjerre and even worrall isnt the same rider these days are all down on form atm and with no guest for jorgensen anything can happen imo only ostergaard on form 

Anything can happen but not counting my chickens since Riss has been signed the Bears have never been beaten by more than 10 points,  I think that shows the size of the task for the Diamonds
