WeymouthPirate Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 Good meeting on a very decent track. Potentially could've done with a bit more watering mid meeting, but I imagine the riders have a say on that as well. Masters looked a threat all night, very quick especially against Stevie Worrall. Jason Edwards was a superb choice of guest as there is no way on earth that James Sarjeant would score 10. Pickering showed glimpses but aside from that, the rest of the Monarchs struggled. Couple of unfortunate moments for the Pirates. Zach Cook's bike dying when on what seemed a nailed on 5-1 and Kemps crash. Surprised Kemp came out for his remaining rides as it seemed so awkward. Special shout out to Nathan Ablitt. A small error cost him a point against Edwards on bend four, lap four. It is still his apprenticeship year, and the rest of the side has been built to allow him to learn this year before hopefully kicking on. ROTN, easily Ben Cook. His part in the 5-1 over Masters & Pickering in Heat 9 was amazing and his overtakes for a well deserved win in Heat 14 were outstanding. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbw Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) Just been chatting to a young Monarchs fan at Poole station. He's off to Peterborough tonight & Belle Vue on Friday on the train meeting up with mates. Great to see. Both agreed that Monarchs should av got a point for their efforts. There is younger support out there who like to travel to support speedway & by train the same as me. The myth is busted Kieran the Monarch, just guided him through the London underground to St.Pancras. And he'll also be at Leicester's double header on Sunday vs Berwick so I'll see him there Speedway, the real deal Edited June 2, 2022 by Turnip 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlicktrackSandy Posted June 2, 2022 Report Share Posted June 2, 2022 10 hours ago, Mr Blobby said: Felt the score line flattered us a bit with the fall and Ef. Paco on the road poor again which is frustrating as it’s costing us points on the road. Feel we are just a rider short of challenging. Very much the case - positions 2 & 4 looked to have been our potential weak spots since early on and with our senior reserve being injured also adds to the reliance on the other 3 to come up with big points for any chance of success. Not an ideal combination if we have aspirations of being in the top six at play-off time, but you have to play with the hand that is dealt - so will have to wait and see if it is good enough.

One rider short of a decent Team still in with a chance of Play Off place though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing to add is that with Sargeant missing Poole managed to get through the whole meeting with only one set of tapes! So 3 points, a good crowd, great meeting with good opposition and a saving on tapes. Whats not to like?! PS> With the stadium looking reasonably smart and tidy at the moment I hope its not too long before the new grass on the old dogtrack is trimmed back......!
