But Plymouth chucked it away in my opinion. Thought the patched up Gladiators team did very well but, from a fan's point of view, going into heat 14 6 points up then losing must have been hard to take. Got to say the Plymouth stream is very good and I enjoy watching matches from there. Ben Barker very good as a co-commentator (although I'm sure you would have much rather had him on track).

Mike0310 Posted August 29, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 I just can’t understand why other teams can get top guests and we can’t there all self employed and it’s a long winter not earning, so you have to ask why because unbelievably until tonight we still had a chance of getting the last playoff spot . I guess we will never no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edinburgh didn’t struggle getting Riss who was brilliant did they some very unhappy punters walking out tonight. You'd best hope you have something to moan about next season. Several teams won't and wouldn't be a complete surprise if you were whining about NORA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why no tac sub for Edinburgh in heat 14? In the end it didn't matter with Bastian riding a brilliant race, but it did seem a strange decision. Super ride from the skipper off the unproductive gate 1 in heat 15 and great to see Erik in the blue and gold again with an immaculate performance. Paco very good too. If young Mr Campbell had foresight to predict that heat 14 outcome I think we should be asking him for the lottery numbers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endeavour Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 (edited) To use an old cliche ‘ of the day’. Saying that our boys hung in there and kept scores close. A poor team this year but still won 3 away from home albeit against three bottom teams in the league. Hopefully Lasse May be back for double header and we can secure sixth.Erik, thanks for your efforts tonight. One rider I was sorry to see leave Edinburgh. Thanks to Plymouth TV. Excellent stream.

What am I whining about you clown ,I’m asking why the guests backed out and we struggle to get them and others don’t, might be because we are so far down in the country I don’t no,what are you banging on about Nora league for a lot of people have said things about you on here not me before now but I can see where there coming from now.I said there was some unhappy punters walking out tonight did I say me? No I didn’t I’m very thankful for having speedway to watch, but it’s been hard seeing defeat after defeat, because I really thought we’d win tonight.

Waspman Posted August 29, 2023 Report Share Posted August 29, 2023 Getting to the track from exmouth today at 5/30 was very quite, few of the 1st bend tussles could have ended in tears any overtaking was on the straights I don't see much on the bends plymouth fans must be gutted to loose in the last race.

I guess we will never no. A few teams have been struggling to book guests lately not just Plymouth. I think that's good as R/R should always be the first facility available. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
