Weeyin Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 Well done to Newcastle, they fought hard in every race, shame that there wasn't more home support to enjoy the win, there was plenty Glasgow support . That is the best that I have seen Adam Roynon race, which is good to see considering how many awful injuries he has had. For my team, it was frustrating to see them so twitchy at the starts,the ref was holding the tapes for ages, again well done to the diamonds, hope you can consolidate and build some more support, would hate to lose another team 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connor beating Steve so comfortably for the second week in a row and Adam's outside pass down the home straight were the highlights for me 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crescent girl Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 35 minutes ago, Dandelion said: But this season is a learning curve for Archie in preparation (hopefully) for next season. Were not going to do anything this year so what's the point in NOT giving Arvhue the experience and track time. Plenty of better options yes (Luke Ruddick or Ryan Kinsley seems the best ones) but why? Two rising stars next year remember, so Archue should be one of them, and he will have learned a lot by then hopefully from his half season this year On another note, meeting of the season so far tonight!! Every single race was exciting and I dont remember a meeting like that for years. Shame the crowd was so small... no one got to see how entertaining we were. Especially Adam, Max, Connor and Ben Well done Archue for being so on the pace. As for next week, parent Jake Mulford and Dan Gilkes both in the under 19s too? So Kent will be missing noth reserves and well ve missing one... all 3 are 1 star reserves too, so we need to act quick in getting the best one available before Kent do... Jordan Palin and Jenkins are presumably in under 19s also? Who else is available at 1 star. Greg Blair maybe? Greg Blair is a 2* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be interesting to see if Glasgow retain him next season, certainly nowhere near the best rider in the league anymore Glasgow signed Cook when he was at his peak or arguably on his way down. He was never going to improve his average or level of performance. Glasgow need to rethink their model - they need to find riders with potential. A Kai Thomson for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neila Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 A big well done to the diamonds did not see this result coming,, bringing the millionaires down to earth, hopefully another year the Tigger's don't win anything, can imagine camie knickers thinking of his excuse while driving home 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luck plays a huge part along with getting them on a low average where they can have limited impact on the team if they are sh1te. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulco Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 No bones about it , we were crap tonight . Poole got 61 there two weeks ago and we didn't remotely look like winning tonight . Some serious thinking needs to be done about where we go from here . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signings like Ricky Wells and Justin Sedgmen aren’t going to get you anywhere really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaizer Posted August 15, 2021 Report Share Posted August 15, 2021 That team isn't going to beat Poole or Leicester over 2 legs. Guests doesn't work for me, up until heat 15 even Steve worral was disappointing when he looked perfect choice. Roll the dice make a triple change see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to be looking to your no.1 - he shouldn’t be losing a heat in that company. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was he riding at 3 btw, riding order was a mess, surely Steve at 5, wells 4, Jensen 3 made far more sense? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
