And for keeping us entertained priming gates 2&4 at the interval when there was little else memorable on track. After Eastbourne seems we will be posting a sentry at the start line in away meetings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with a broken wrist I can't see Ulle returning until September, wonder if this will now prompt two team changes as we can't replicate his points on a 7.15 average.

Gazc Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) Kyle Howarth looks to be the only rider around Ulrich's average available tomorrow. I would go with R/R tomorrow @2 everyone eligible to take a ride and with Sam flying round Ashfield put him @5 Edited July 24, 2021 by Gazc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endeavour Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 Glasgow top of league and were rumoured to be making changes. We have had only 3 / 4 riders performing in most meetings and nothing done about it. A slight dip from any of our top 3 and we struggle in matches. 4 points from 3 riders last night and ironically William Lawson looked more like rider we expect him to be. Begs the question does he put enough effort into his equipment prep. Nathan clearly not fit and Joe struggling too. Draw would have been fair result last night. Sad Brown chose to comment that ‘we deserved to win’. Hope Ulrich out of hospital soon. Has been great to watch on TV with Panthers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Harkess also chose to make a similar comment about last night . I also thought we just about deserved it over the piece. Comments below don't see anything wrong with either comments tbh. didn't get the chance to race heat 15 in which I felt we would get an advantage.” Edited July 24, 2021 by Gazc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked to me like he was trying to make all the gates fairer. #1 certainly seemed to have too much of an advantage up til then. And how was he doing 2 and 4 but not 3?!! And I think he was working his way across to #1 when the complaints came in. They have done it over the past few matches including the Newcastle one so not really going for an advantage.

Really bad luck on Ostergaard - he's been flying this season. Hope he makes a speedy recovery. Alex Harkess' comment was about right though. Sam on gate 1 and Picko on 3. Sam was never going to repeat his mistake from heat 13 and indeed flew out of the traps. Josh was always going to have the edge on Cookie who looked slow all evening and could well have kept Ostergaard behind him as long as he gated reasonably well. But we'll never know. I think a draw would have been a fair result. I remember a few years back when we were up on holiday and watch us get humped at home by Glasgow. The return match was that weekend but we were on the train at the same time. Couldn't believe the updates as we piled on the heat wins. Ran out of internet around heat 10 but found we had won comfortably. History repeat would be good!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorgensen is at Eastbourne tonight with Scunthorpe so ruled him out for that reason , As you say we will never know and hopefully history will not repeat itself but will be another close one tomorrow.

Is that comment related to last night or all season? Last night, he did his job by beating Connor Bailey in heat 2. Pray tell where else you expected him to pick up points? Re the grading on the start line, I didn't really pay much attention to it. However, if there were inconsistencies afoot then hats off to Sir Jim for upholding the rule book. As for awkward Ostergaard, fair play that he managed to escape relatively lightly. I somehow doubt he'll receive a get well card from the real THJ though, especially after Reading 2008...

Would think if it's R/R it would be at 5 (or wherever Glasgow had Ulrich at prior to last night). 4 minutes ago, King Jamie said: Joe struggling? Is that comment related to last night or all season?

He seems to be struggling for points (possibly apart from a couple of matches). Hopefully he will improve as the season goes on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weeyin Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 Guests to cover for Ulrich are limited, Howarth already guesting at Newcastle, only other options are T Jorgensen or T Arnio, who doubtfully would replicate Ulli 's points, will probably be r/r but our inconsistent riders would need to be on it , and Cammy would need to change the riding order to maximise our possible points scoring.

Surely you'll hire a plane or helicopter to get Jorgensen up from Eastbourne? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
