tellboy Posted September 3, 2023 Report Share Posted September 3, 2023 Peterborough to win this one.Personally imo,I think Sheffield are slightly weaker with their play off changes they have made,even more so with this one and Tai missing.

Not only is his average too high (by 0.06), a rider who has been taken out of a declared line-up can't return for 28 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Sheffield made their latest change, it only fitted using Woffy's average, not Holder's. So at that point Holder can't come back in. Now the transfer window has passed can't sign anyone else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 I'd have put Holder at 2, to take the r/r in heat 13, plus counters Harris in heat 8? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weakening a partnership in the middle order for three heats just to have a stronger rider in one (harder) heat makes little sense. As an entertainment spectacle for fans having a strong heat 13 is great but from a tactical point of view three points from any other heat counts just the same. The aim is to win the meeting, not just do well in an individual race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just thinking outside of the box & trying to work out how to get the bonus point. I agree Peterborough look strong now with their changes & expect a 10+ win for them.

I think Peterborough only need to win by more than 6 for the bonus point, dont think the bonus point matters much to Sheffield either.

The aim is to win the meeting, not just do well in an individual race. My point is, Peterborough look favourites. So Sheffield's top riders need to beat Panthers best men as often as possible, so I'd want Holder & Musielak in heat 13. I also don't feel Howarth / Pickering looks a weak middle order pairing. It may not have worked, we'll never know! Edited September 4, 2023 by szkocjasid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Bloke Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 I fully expect Artem to score pretty well tonight..I'll go something like Artem and Vadim 18 between them, Bomber NKI and Basso 20 ,reserves 12 50-40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted September 4, 2023 Report Share Posted September 4, 2023 Panthers would've won even if Sheffield had a full 1-7 tonight imo. Panthers by Double figures imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
