Talking to a Kent Royals rider on Tuesday and he was looking forward to their next meeting away at Berwick on Saturday 4th september so the answer to question 2 is yes as is the answer to question 1 according to the Mildenhall website - Kent’s last 5 home matches are in the National League starting on 21 september and going through October - Must say I am looking forward to those meetings with the youngsters gaining much needed track time - Hope the weather holds up 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are many arguments... that is just one of them. Lawson has already closed 1 club down this season with his wage demands, now he's gone to a club that already have Crump and Pedersen on their payroll and are unlikely to make the pay-offs (play-offs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you don't so why are acting as though you do? I will be at Leicester tomorrow and I hope Plymouth and particularly Lawson smash Leicester and you miss out on the playoffs as a result . 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, you're right it was obviously Jason Edwards that they were paying too much that's why he had to go, but it was too late Eastbourne could never recover from his wage demands... mean while Lawson was sat in the pits refusing to take his rides because he couldn't afford to take to the track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike0310 Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 There’s the first three biting imagine if we win and you have already lost 7 points because of the Eastbourne situation it could be nervous times down at Beaumont road….. no seriously guys I’m only messing in my last 2 messages may the best team win on the night.

LisaColette Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Looking at the table if Plymouth are going to make the playoffs they really have to win this one and not only just win it they need 4 league points. They have to take as many as they can off Leicester. I know Plymouth are only 3 points behind 6th place but Leicester have played 4 less than them.

Fromafar Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 (edited) Personally I think it is more of a move to-get Lawson on board for next season than making the play-offs.Remember Pedersen has also said this his last season.

flagrag Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 This is going to be a difficult meeting for the Lions with Plymouth top 3 I would have been more confident if we would have had Nick Morris as he has been very impressive this season. The crucial thing will be how Ruml and Cook take to the Leicester track, If Dan Thompson and Zane Kennedy beat them that should be enough for Leicester Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
