grasstrack crash yesterday taken to hospital after lengthy delay,unbeaten all day missed start in final,with leaders at first bend big coming together

Hope James is OK and a swift recovery.

Its not done his speedway career any good all these grass track crashes but i suppose he earns significant sums on the grass / long tracks especially abroad.

Morris one ride, Nielsen 2 rides and a Tactical substitute for one of his other rides....

It certainly doesn't make us stronger....Shanes is better than Nielsen atm. Not much in it between Ash/James.

P.s More importantly...Hope James is ok and wish him a speedy recovery!

Birmingham might not be 6 points down though.

We should beat Birmingham whether Shanseys riding or not. No excuses to not get three points on Wednesday. Having said that, last year I expected us to win an we were never close to it. We lost Stefan to an horrendous crash and the boys were never on it after that. Track then was very poor and ref came down to inspect with ongoing track work all evening. Heard it’s a lot better since then. 

Best wished to James Shanes on a speedy recovery.

Radio coverage listed by BBC WM so results could be lifted from there if someone is listening in.

Well then it wouldn't matter who took 'Shanes' ride.....and I hope this is the case. But the likelihood is that by Heat 10, we will be 6 or more points behind.

Just trying to be constructive with the 'use' of 'who' and when.....might be worth using Morris in Heat 1 because he can beat Worrall no problem.

Use the 'weakest' option when up against 'King' ..... obviously Rogers knows his riders better than me and knows the best time of how and when to use them. (I hope...)

These decisions are what can win matches IMO.

I'm not convinced Morris would beat Worrall "no problem" 3 times out of 5 my money would be on Worrall.  Generally with R/R at 2 a reserve gets that ride to give them advantage going into the reserve race that follows.

Why 'King'?

Well....I agree with your summisation about Morris v worrall....I also agree about using a reserve in Heat (I put that in an earlier thread...)

As for using weakest option against King? I think that's a no brainer because he will beat all of B'ham riders apart from may be 'Ellis' (if Ellis gates....)

In Birmingham, short heavy shower but sun back out with lovely bits of blue.

I've lost a trotter, anyone seen Uncle Albert?:rofl:

Forecast is great after 3pm....there wont be any repeats of last weeks mud bath!

It's going to be a cracking meeting....looking forward to this one!

I think Poole will be too strong and win by 10 points.
