Am of course refering to the times someone guesting could knock their own team out of a tournament (which I'm sure you know)! It would make far less sense for an Berwick, Edinburgh or Plymouth rider to guest for the Brummies!

Make sure you say hello! Everything went a bit pear shaped on and off the track for Birmingham last week! Hoping you a quieter evening tomorrow , the trudge up and down the stairs to the officials / streaming box was good for my daily steps though ;-) Come and find me on the first/second bend with the Poole fans, unless I see you first. Will be with my young daughter who has never been to a speedway meeting away from Poole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we should sign Adam Ellis next season, sounds like the Poole track is made for him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redcar have got NO chance of finishing top! Oxford/Glasgow/Poole are the favourites! King is riding as a guest because he's the best available option!

Shov....with this in mind...you might want to re-consider your 'viewing' point! I find bend 4 (steps) the best vantage point! albeit a bit 'cozy' at times and sunglasses are needed if the weather is kind! P.s Forecast looks good for this evening!

I think I'm right in saying that out of the 14 riders. 9 have ridden for, or are riding for, Leicester, and you've got our manager as well.

GiveusaB Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 I think the spectator viewing is fabulous at Leicester! If B'ham do fold, I would be tempted to travel and get my fix there! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet he loves getting paid, more than he loves Poole! Danny's a competitor and I'm sure he'll be going all out to beat Lawson and co. Zach Cook is the pick of the Poole team for me...he looked great when guesting earlier in the season.

SteveLyric2 Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) OK so I'll stick my neck out a little for this one and suggest it will be a lot easier than many predict! Edited July 19, 2023 by Skidder1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiveusaB Posted July 19, 2023 Report Share Posted July 19, 2023 It will be interesting to see if Hagon can get the better of Adam....Hagon is improving with every outing and he fills me with optimism! I'd have Bowtell and Newman on level terms. Rowe/Cook will leave Nielsen/Starke in their wake. King better than Lawson. Worral/Batch evens... Not sure how Ben Cook goes at PB (never seen him), but I do know that he wont have to be that good to beat Sedgemen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Cook 13+3 and 8+1 last season. One score was at reserve and other at no4. Sure you can work out which is which! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
