And also Redcar will fancy there chances although Wright is irreplaceable at home. Group still wide open. . But 3 from Brennan just isn’t good enough.

cinderfella Posted September 13, 2023 Report Share Posted September 13, 2023 Reserves were the chillies heel but Brennan wasn't much better. L10 points is a lot to make up. At least Vad has ridden Redcar so that is to our advantage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riding as second string, no longer captain then get 3 points. Not good enough. Fair play to Oxford, every rider having their moments, think gates went against us in 13 and 15 but deserved winners. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickinho Posted September 13, 2023 Report Share Posted September 13, 2023 (edited) I don't think tonight's result is solely a reserve problem I believe this is a Cami Brown problem and has been for a while now. I'm expecting the usual platitudes such as "Brown vows Tigers will improve", "Brown acknowledges frustrating night" and my personal favourite "Brown admits he doesn't know what he's doing away from Ashfield" Edited September 13, 2023 by Nickinho 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand We won by 12 last week, and there were a couple of decisions that made it look like we didn’t really care about the result past a win on the night. The tie is definitely well-poised, but it’s very winnable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Thanks for this Lisa. I thought I’d miss the meeting as I was driving, but enjoyed listening to this. Decent coverage from a guy called Leon Foster, I think, and another gentleman whose name I missed. Glasgow have to be bitterly disappointed by the manner in which the meeting unfolded after the mid-meeting break. They collapsed. I wonder how accountable Tom Brennan and to a lesser extent, Lee Complin will be held by Cami Brown. Three points each - 6 out of a possible 33 - across eleven rides is unacceptable. On such an important occasion, your captain can’t be out-scored by every opponent, including their reserves. The impact of replacing Nowak with Tarasenko is nullified by that sort of performance. Oxford sounded efficient and based on their individual scores, looked impressive. Consistent throughout. That’s a very, very good win for them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Absolutely spot on sir... we all knew our reserves are not up to the job & even lee on harris bike ,but tom cmon that's really poor stuff ...we can still get bonus but in the end our reserves are killing us if any top guy fails ie brennan here were in trouble ..the situation with claus now is key we can't have 2 reserves covering rr it won't work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Agreed. His knowledge is second to none. He can even recite which helmet colour goes from which gate position for every heat in both columns. Sadly I think his other commitments prevent him from taking on the manager's job full time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
