Guest Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 6 hours ago, gee jay said: wasn't there , but reading all the comments with interest . certainly not the score i wanted or expected . hoped a 50+ score would really grab the attention of the rest of the league and have most teams beaten before they arrive which i believe has been the case very often , that hasn't happened . i thought kyle & edward would do much better against poole . however result will show teams that they're not beaten until riders have crossed the line in heat 15 . bragging rights on the south coast certainly goes to the pirates . i'm not so sure that any talk of "revenge" in the return leg isn't misplaced though . i think the eagles will be the team with the point to prove now , if so that's going to be a cracker. hope that everything gets opened up at poole soon as we could do with some good news after somerset . I was there. Unfair on Kyle, who was giving it everything. He was beaten once by Shlein & King and twice by Worrall (who was absolutely flying). A real favourite at Eastbourne.

old bob at herne bay Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Didn’t expect Poole to get a point at Arlington against the team Trevor Geer tips to win everything this season. Good on Poole for doing the right thing in heat 15 and giving the home fans something to remember so they come back to EB next week...... good for business. Ed Kennett goes down as one in my book who promised so much as a young lad ... I tipped him as a future champion, but somehow he lost his way.

He was pretty impressive on the grass at Frittenden today. He beat James Shanes in the final, which is no mean feat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’ll make people think again, when they say he had a disappointing career Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted May 30, 2021 Report Share Posted May 30, 2021 Seeing him as an 8 year old on the junior track at Arlington he was a stand out top performer ..... got to Champion on speedway at u21 level, and I expected him to become a regular GP rider. Well I got that one wrong. Let’s see how my next pick Anders Rowe gets on.... I reckoned he would be very good the first time I saw him at Kent.

Saw him at Weymouth when his feet barely touched the ground, even on the mini bikes! A slightly awkward style, which maybe Crumpie can help him with? Smashing lad and I always make sure he and his Dad know Im there when hes racing. Made a very strong start to 2021.Hope he continues to look, learn and listen.

Steve Shovlar Posted May 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Rowe and Brennan both look good prospects. Need to listen and learn. Hopefully not the type of rider who sees their name in the side of their van and think they have made it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted May 31, 2021 Report Share Posted May 31, 2021 Apologies Richard, it was Trevor Geer, Ian Jordan and Will Pottinger who predicted that Eagle would win the Champiopnship. https://www.eastbourne-speedway.com/happy-new-year-as-eastbournes-three-wise-eagles-predict/ I know I had read it somewhere.
