So when i turned up at Foxhall to find out they werent in the pits, i got back in my car and drove home... Not totally correct as i was picking up Zagar at Stansted airport but his flight was late in and the Reading management put plan B into operation. Matej insisted we went to Ipswich and arrived about heat 8. I then did my radio summarising bit for the live Radio Berks coverage and then drove Matej back to a Stansted hotel where he spent the night before flying out to Sweden for the GP on the Saturday.

I'd say that makes Beerhut correct...... Neither raced and no one was made aware until moments before the tapes went up on heat 1 The fact that Zagar got to see 7 heats didn't contribute to the fans vfm for the night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite so good then.. Edit: Still makes it better than Wolves offering, just! 17.33 a meeting. If Wolves don’t make the final of the cup, or make the play offs, they’ll have to include a couple of individual meetings to allow fans to use the 15 tickets. I know they normally do the Olympique, but they’ll have to do another one Edited December 7, 2021 by Arch Stanton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Reading management had taken a different course of action and covered his rides until we arrived he would have ridden !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some nights I just can’t be ar$ed though and make my mind up on the day. I do like the idea of paying up front and getting it done for the season, but can’t justify it really as I know I’ll end up out of pocket.

old bob at herne bay Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 Always assuming your club will not decide to have a sabbatical halfway through the season due to a new variant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted December 7, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 Just worked it out that you can afford to miss one meeting and break even. But that’s on this years admission price of 19 quid. As far as I can see they haven’t mentioned the admission cost for next year, just the season ticket costs. Maybe the admission will increase..

The BSPL 'old boys' seem to be gradually missing from the new Board of Directors with Godfrey, Bates, Louis and Ford(Danny) now making up the main decision-makers!!

szkocjasid Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 Trying to find my preferred riding order. But whatever way I put it I can't help think that Ipswich are obvious wooden spoon candidates! Home 1. Jason Doyle 2. Cameron Heeps 3. Erik Riss 4. Troy Batchelor 5. Danny King 6. Anders Rowe 7. Paul Starke Away 1. Jason Doyle 2. Cameron Heeps 3. Troy Batchelor 4. Erik Riss 5. Danny King 6. Paul Starke 7. Anders Rowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldyman Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 That's cos they are wooden spoon candidate's,,,,, unless at least 2 of Heeps Batchelor or Riss have good seasons. Personally I would put Troy at 2,,, Heeps isn't the best of gaters,,, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds85 Posted December 24, 2021 Report Share Posted December 24, 2021 I'd put Erik at number 2 tbh. And I'd normally put the stronger reserve at 7, but in this case, Anders doesn't have enough experience at 6, but could be a very strong number 7. And I think Paul Stark will do ok at 6. 1. Jason Doyle 2. Erik Riss 3. Tory Batchelor 4. Cameron Heeps 5. Danny King 6. Paul Starke 7. Anders Rowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
