Recommended Posts

We can’t carry on with these 2 at reserve we are out of 2 cup competitions already something has got to change and fast because we aren’t going to get any aggregate bonus points anywhere.and before the usual suspects on here tell me I’m being negative I’m not I’m being a realist I look forward to what will transpire in the next week or 2 because hopefully we can beat Birmingham on Tuesday and then we have a break and maybe time to take stock and see if there are any alternatives out there.

You should get a few bites with this one Lisa.

It is actually quite funny.

 

For a change.

Nothing negative at all last season we carried a 2 pt rider because the other six were good enough lucky may be but we were but you can't carry two reserves who don't win races,reserves are trump cards in many meetings but if they can't beat other teams reserves then your not going to win many meetings

So the ref stops the race cos he spots the airfence deflating! Calls for the interval to be taken - fine. Racing resumes and one race later theres an immediate track grade and watering?

Any attempt to favour the home team seems to have faltered.

Wow skid , dust is an optional extra at Plymouth, they can water to save us having visibility issues with dust clouds lol .

Turner has scored a few points & could be ok, Trigger does seem out if his depth at Champ level. Last night was obviously an issue because Trigger had to take all the reserve rides. Not sure any other 2.00 riders would score more tbh? Look at Jake Mulford promising enough to be picked for the Prem, but scores 0 nearly every match for Redcar!

Coles 4.69 (2023 average all match exc bonus)

Atkins 3.85

are both 2.00 riders 

Or do you mean unsigned riders? If so then probably correct.

If Mattie Bates was still TM would the team now have ??

Bowtell instead of Starke

Coles instead of Turner

Atkins instead of Trigger

That (on current form) would be probably the most solid 1-7 in the League.

Heart over head may be on Starke and Trigger.

Getting Jason Edwards in and then letting him go was a calamitous mistake in hindsight.

Gary May is too quick to discard reserves and use them as commodities, always been the same!

Not seen Turner yet other than a few video clips, he can gate and he does have speed and in a better balanced reserve pairing he may have less pressure on him.

Its a shame as Mark Phillips works incredibly hard and deserves a bit of silverware for his efforts.

Think you'll find Mark builds the teams but obviously Garry does have a big input.

But if you think Plymouth would be better with Matt as team manager you are delusional

Absolutely correct. Who even is this Matt you speak of? I think james chattin would be better as manager he seems to know everything as a professional speedway rider

Poole now meet Oxford and go to Cowley on 30 May and at home on 31 May……..the Jubilee meeting delayed again.

Lol, well Leicester haven't got a home leg in the fixture list either! 

Feel like we are in a league with just Oxford and Plymouth atm!
