Yearbyred Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Very unlucky for Plymouth to lose their star signing before the first home meeting of the season. Cruel sport at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 As already mentioned Danny King guests for Jason Crump while Drew Kemp guests for the injured Henry Atkins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Big blow for the Plymouth promotion losing Jason Crump .....he was undoubtedly the star attraction of the Plymouth side, and would have put "bums on seats." Unless B Pedersen gets it together after his embarrassing performance at P'boro last night (000X) there will be lots of empty seats at Plymouth.

solrac Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Plymouth will be carrying at least 2 riders per meeting which makes things really difficult at that level. Let's hope they pick up and give their supporters something to cheer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hobbit Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 Why wasn’t Tom Bacon given heat 15? He was Kent’s top scorer at that stage, Threw away the win with that decision in my opinion . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know its in the rules but doesnt feel right that a home team can use a tactical sub. Plymouth picked wisely with thier guest and saved thier blushes but Goret must be a huge concern. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelDan Posted June 1, 2021 Report Share Posted June 1, 2021 It was great to see some live Speedway again and thankfully all the riders came through unscathed. A decent crowd, a beautiful Devon evening and even the slight delay and intermittent tannoy system didnt stop the smiles. The racing despite being largely processional was close and competitive. For Kent, Nicholls tried his nuts off and Gilkes and Tom Bacon were excellent, for the Devils Danny King was an brilliant guest, Bjarne did ok and will get better and Cook improved as the evening went on. Ruml tried hard and looked quick but just couldn’t gate, there definitely looks potential there, Goret was the concern and looked well off the pace and clearly needs more track time and support. Overall a good start for the Plymouth promotion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueherb777 Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Can`t help feeling the Kings let slip their ONE chance of an AWAY win this year! On the plus side...six Kings won a heat and young Gilkes is looking a real diamond. Sure lot of the crowd turned up to see Crump....but doubt he would have done as well as King? Looking forward to the Kings first home meeting (at last!!!!!) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks King in for Crump (first class guest) both guest rode well, slow start for Plymouth but they all worked hard. Pity about the sound system, but all worked out in the end. The standard of racing was first class, the meeting started off flat but ended on a high. It can only get better. Well worth the money. A very big thank you to all who helped in putting the meeting on. See you all next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinny Posted June 2, 2021 Report Share Posted June 2, 2021 Pedersen will score pretty well at this level due to his gating alone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the greatest of respect to him he is 42 years old and the weather was pretty toasty for the double header....maybe two meetings in a day were just a bit much for him?
