I will be disappointed if they don’t occasionally score a few more than last night. Nielsen was averaging more than that last season before injury and didn’t mountain score about 14 on a visit to Belle Vue ? I don’t expect them to get heat leader scores every meeting but in certain meetings you need your reserve to get a big score to win the meeting. Jordan Palin did it on occasions last season for Peterborough didn’t he ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topaz325 Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 (edited) If Aces can get Zagar they will be a handy side Blodorn looked steady and stylish and should improve over time and was out practicing after the meeting.

Musielak wouldn't have scored more then 7, has never done in his previous visits and was lot worst last week. Ignoring heat 14 5-1 then Why stupid, Wright was top scorer and was very fast in heat 14, you have already stated above that Fricke was poor. Gate 1 was one of the worst gates, only 1 win all meeting, gate 3 was the better gate. With regards to Musielak - on his last visit for Swindon in 2019, he scored 9+2. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if Matej Zagar comes over they may need a couple of hundred more if he is on his "old deal".... Are the crowds better when the 2 Manchester football clubs are not playing , either during the summer or as it was at the weekend an international break Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I used to go the attendance hovered around 1200 to 1400 which wasnt "too bad" in the grand scheme of things... Cannot recall City being at home either when I have been there, but I suppose they must have played at the same time before now.. Although as City struggle to fill their ground maybe it doesn't have any impact? At the old place crowds held up pretty well to be fair given the Aces were so poor for a good many of the seasons from 93 onwards... And "if" the crowd last night was circa 1500+ I am sure those in charge would be quite pleased to maintain that all season... Income of around £30k a match would be more than most I would think... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he's riding for Bydgoszcz Liga 1 this year rather than Ekstraliga, so no limits on other leagues, not that he appears to be riding in Elitserien or is not at least listed on the line-ups on the Svemo site. Don't know about Danish league - wouldn't know where to look. There is limits - Esktraliga is 1 extra league and Division 1 and 2 is 2 extra leagues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise Blodorn only came good in his final ride, which he had to take as his mandatory 3rd programmed ride having been replaced by TS Fricke earlier in the meeting. That in lies the problem with the team manager - Allen should of been replaced in heat 9 off the back of Brennan winning the previous heat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 Good start from a weakened Aces team who actually matched last years performance up to heat 14, only this time they missed out in the last. I think Sheffield are stronger this year compared to last season so to match the result up to that point was heartening for the weakened Aces. The inclusion of Allen was the decider in my opinion and shows poor team building on Lemons part. He should have named Zagar in the team then ran R/R in his place. Committee member Chris Louis did this against the Aces last year with Klindt and indeed committee member Bates made the same move with Cook on Monday. Committee members seem to have a better take on the rules than our fella. Racing wasn’t great and the fact it was tough to pass will cost us dear at Owlerton next week. Give that one a miss I reckon.

BV66 Posted March 30, 2022 Report Share Posted March 30, 2022 I cannot say I am overjoyed that it could be Zagar joining the team, from recall he was not one of the better No 1s that we have had, but one of the most expensive. If it is a done deal then why have the management not announced it. Obviously Zagar will be better than what we have got, but I still feel that we will not win the league, poor team management and inconsistent riders will see to that, plus the fairness of the track, in that we rarely get a huge advantage from the home leg of the Play -Offs. I am old fashioned in believing the team at the top of the League at the end of the season should be the true Champions, and the Play Off winners are Knock out Cup Winners only.

Zagar was fantastic for Belle Vue and was a genuine number 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
