I’m quite content with Flint in for Brennan. I don’t think it changes much. Tom is used to Belle Vue and Ashfield after all, which are quite different. What’s parking like at Armadale? I’ve never been but I’m tempted to make the trip or or both days. Expand Think someone forgot that Tom grew up on Eastbourne! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 3 been consistently inconsistent all season, and who knows whether Marcin will be able to turn hard enough to get round!! Expand Marcin needs to reflect on the performance of his fellow Pole, Krzysztof Kasprzak on his only visit (as far as I know) to Armadale on 30 October 2009, riding for Belle Vue.

Al Stewart Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 I don't remember anyone saying that Kasprzak would not be able to ride the track. In fact it was a very wet track but he rocketed round in fast times, it would have to be mentioned in any list of best-ever Armadale performances.

Endeavour Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 So hard to call how these matches will go. KO Cup - 16 a big ask to pull back. 2 debutants in Glasgow team and no Ulrich. League play offs - glad we have first leg at the Dale (weather permitting). Flint ideal guest for Tigers. Rowe and Kemp key riders for Monarchs. Cookie and Wells know their way round Armadale. All to play for. Big incentive for both teams if Leicester get to final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Blobby Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 Feel 16 will just be a touch too far for us. Conceding the 5-1 and 4-2 in heats 14/15 on Sunday killed it for us imo. However another performance like Tuesday and there’s every chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaizer Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 I fear the worst but that's always case for me. Wells been improving of late a solid 8 points be acceptable, no reason broc not going well on the small tracks. Sam and Tom would accept 3-3s all night from. Big unknown at reserve, Connor come on leaps and bounds since last visit to the dump, won a heat at Newcastle as a guest for the enemy I believe so hopefully no fears of the track now. Marcin, who knows. He's an experienced rider I'm sure he'll can ride it might just be the set up will be an issue. My prediction, 50-40 on Friday, 48-42 on Saturday (if it's on) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JanAndersen Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 16 is too much to pull back without quite a bit of good fortune.

cinderfella Posted October 15, 2021 Report Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) Just wondering if Edinburgh have found a loophole in the regulations in using Jason Edwards as a guest in so many of their last meetings after the team change and signing deadline passed? Is there (or should there be) a rule limiting the number of time one particular rider can appear as a guest for the one team? Don't get me wrong as I think it's great a young British rider is getting the opportunity to ride especially when he is prepared to travel to Scotland for meetings when so many other have declined the chance to ride for Glasgow or Edinburgh in the past but it begs a few questions.
