Plymouth are putting up a hell of a fight here with half a team Eh? Surely it’s calculated that the amount extra 5 yards on the final lap or whatever it is takes it to 260? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanAndersen Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 Struggled to a win. Kye was excellent tonight though and has really added a good aggressive side to his racing. We’re not going to trouble anyone in the play-offs sadly. What’s the guesting rules for the play-offs? Can it only be a rider from a team not involved? Paging Bomber.

Depends what the "actual" length of the track is... i mean Plymouth could be FIM length if they rode over 5 laps lol Edited August 5, 2022 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously though, do you know the reason? At Wimbledon it was something to do with distance to first turn I think. Not sure Edinburgh only been there twice. May be to line it with refs box maybe? Pretty much every grass track has start line in a chute to protect actual track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather he took the time and didn’t rush back and do himself more damage to be honest. Even with him back we’re not winning the league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I say anything about our previous guests? I simply said Flint will be a poor guest at number 1, take your Berwick hat off and see it for what it is, a rider nearly two points below the average we have to play with who has never scored well at Armadale at this level is a poor choice of guest. Suggest you do some research and have your facts straight. We agreed to sign a replacement a while back but it was blocked...We've played within the rules, crap rules, I'll give you that. He did OK. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least got NL to bounce back onto. Not much anyone can do when only like for like changes. Unless Plymouth want to change him for Connor Coles? Might help if going to Leicester in playoffs although realistically is he going to beat Clegg or Joe Thompson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor choice???. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think torpointfanatic22 is a Plymouth fan . All his posts knock Plymouth, apparently doesn’t even live in the south west or attend the racetrack . Just another know all keyboard warrior or princess . 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendonebunching Posted August 6, 2022 Report Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) I would like to thank the Edinburgh fans who applauded us ( the Plymouth fans ) as we left the stadium , it was a great gesture and really made our day.

Bickley came along way in a short time, sadly for him he has went virtually nowhere over the last two or three season, he has been a Championship reserve and no more. IMO he needs a re-think over the winter as there is something wrong somewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
