There was also a thing called passing tonight in every heat great entertainment. Will this thing called passing catch on. Now who is a dog with a bone Actually not every heat though, as at least two had FTG on updates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MD Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Brilliant meeting that could have gone either way right up to the last few heats. Last years rider of the season turned up again to remind us we should have kept him. More passes than an SNP conference tonight. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulco Posted July 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 That was a cracking meeting between two of the top contenders . Danny King's impetiousness at the start of heat 13 was the turning point . Good win for us , will 12 points be enough for the bonus point ?

Another challenging night coming up. Chris Harris disagrees with this statement 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeyin Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Brilliant meeting between the 2 teams, both going for it in every race, we do make life difficult when we can't gate, but makes for some exciting racing, scoreline doesn't convey how close it was at times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monarchs2468 Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Cracking meeting tonight, same as last time Redcar were at Ashfield. I was really impressed with Ace tonight. It may not show in his points total but he's coming along really well. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerro Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Can we just take a minute to appreciate Mr Harris. There were quite a few people on here, myself included who were less than impressed when it was rumoured he would be coming back. The guy has been absolutely superb for us on and off the track this season 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danyon was great to watch around Ashfield both of his visits this year, really wished we'd kept him, Bomber going round the boards in heat one passing both riders turning a 1-5 to a 3-3 was something to behold. Ace did Very well again. Marcin really needed an extra point or two especially in heat 8. Claus was outstanding battling with Erik in heat 14 was brilliant. Danny going through the tapes in 13 pretty much sealed the meeting but still edge of the seat stuff from heat 1-15. I feel the Oxford meeting will be just as tight. So look forward to that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barabas Posted July 7, 2023 Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Well done to tigers good meeting & much needed win but its sad to see Lee continue to struggle ndl is his level he's a cracking guy but his position in team is at great risk now & marcin as well he's lacking speed for me & not scoring enough points no 2 is a tough position tho but him & Lee will cost tigers a shot at title , young ace is improving & on a 2 he's doing enough & will continue to get better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted Danyon is maybe a stronger number 2 but in heat 8 he should've definitely had the beating of Edwards. Heat 10, was the first time I've seen him with his elbows out to repass Bailey, but he should be doing that in every heat. Definitely shouldve had 1 point extra minimum tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both second strings had lower averages & Glasgow were very keen on their top 3. He was unlucky to lose him team spot, but don't know who'd they'd have swapped round to keep him in?
