4BenMoran Posted June 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 Doyle wast gonna get passed Tobi in Ht1, it’s the kerb line or nothing early doors, should have sat behind and protected Hulme, being on a guarantee it’s not like he needed the extra £ by passing Hulme on 4th bend of last lap. The strop in the pits afterwards was quite funny though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless Danyon has on occasion this year baulked his own team mates who might have done a better job at overtaking the opposition. Wasn't at the meeting - people saying trap 2 was bobbins first five heats 0 points - always used to be gate 3 years back. I do think Owlerton would benefit (if possible) from some track widening - do they still use the pitch in the centre? I played football on there probably about 15 years go now maybe longer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinny Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 Bellego been terrible but Ellis also has been rubbish most of the season - Sheff should look at replacing both of them if they want to go for the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think bellago has gone, he had a talk with stead and bates after the meeting If he has he had a great ride to win heat 14 last night, and he definitely didn't gate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam has been carrying an injury so he will improve as the season progresses, Bellego needs to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxhall has been a better race track (particularly with Doyle about) since they made the adjustments a few years back Rugby team played there about ten years ago, but didn't like it, as pitch already too narrow. They now play at Olympic Legacy Park, so no chance of them wanting to return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out his Instagram post from may 29th. His hand went into the back wheel of another bike in a crash. He still can’t move his some fingers properly.
