Tigers v Panthers 22/07


Recommended Posts

Second trip to Owlerton for me this year, first for this Panthers septet I believe.  Can Panthers bounce back from home defeat to Belle Vue?  Is Jack Holder likely to be fit, if not who guests.

If jack Holder isn’t fit and Bachelor continues his woeful form Peterborough will win easy   We’ve rode our luck at home so far and percentages say we won’t get away with it every week. Hope we can beat Peterborough obviously but it will be our hardest meeting so far and I’m not confident. There’s been some strange results this season in this league and I expect it to continue. We need to make changes if we want to win the league.

Permanent changes absolutely necessary (starting with a reliable no.1), but the cupboard of able replacements looks pretty bare.

The wounded animals will find their gating gloves and take this one in the last heat after an awful night at the office last night. Let's just hope it's a racers track unlike our one against B.Vue...

Wouldn't hold to much hope for the track being perfect given the current heatwave and the fact there was a stock car meeting on the track on Sunday

Might be some riders freed up in Poland shortly who fit the bill for number 1 

Pedersen, Bjerre, Fricke, Holder, Zagar, Lambert all likely to be available in a couple of weeks if not sooner.

Can’t see Bickley troubling the scorers unless he can beat Palin. Replacing Holder  is never going to be easy as he’s irreplaceable around Sheffield so can’t see Morris getting near what Jack would. Think our first defeat at home tonight is a possibility. Peterborough will be wounded from the Belle Vue meeting so not a good time to take them on. Hope I’m wrong and we can get another 3 points but I’m not confident.

Cant see us winning now, dont think Bickley has scored a point when guesting for us, and Morris wont replace Holders points

Only chane we have is if Batchelor turns up for once, so no real chance

 

Bickley a on par replacement then.....;):P

Morris usually takes a couple of races before he gets going at Owlerton. Bickley is a useless guest for us, remember him guesting for us in the Championship  and getting 0 from 3 rides. He then came  with Workington a couple of weeks later and scored half a dozen. Same when he guested against Ipswich he just couldn't get anywhere near the other three riders and when he got 'filled in' riding behind Cookie he lost all interest in the meeting!  Don't hold out much hope this evening, just want them all to put some effort in so the fans get VFM.
