Steve Shovlar Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 Pretty awful meeting. Redcar so weak it was a going through the motions meeting to get it done. Guessing Poole on Wednesday against Edinburgh might be similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 So it’s all down to Glasgow v Oxford on Tuesday. A ten point lead is not enough imo and Glasgow with their powerhouse top 5 will prove too strong against a battling Oxford team. I am hoping for Oxford in the final as it’s a track up the road and we can have a big Pirate contingent, but a ten lead is small. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm meaning I've not seen an announcement of who would be replacing them at either match? Assuming it would have been Kinsley & Scott on the NLRC, but they weren't in the preview?

Glasgow have a very strong top 4, but Oxford have a strong top 3. Glasgow's reserves needing to take 10 rides between them balances out thier top end. Could go either way imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t worked out the permutations or looked at current standings yet but what happens if Glasgow beat Oxford get bonus but Redcar beat Glasgow on Wednesday night ?

IainB Posted September 24, 2023 Report Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) So Connor Bailey elects to miss a crucial play off meeting in the UK to not ride in Wroclaw! The same lad that elected to not ride for his country in the SoN2! This lad needs to work out which side his bread is buttered Edited September 24, 2023 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This lad needs to work out which side his bread is buttered Don't think we've seen an explanation as to why this meeting was arranged for today when Bailey and Riss were never available. Agree about the SoN2 but if he ever has any ambition of being a regular in Poland then he had to be there today, I expect he would have been made to be there by the FIM anyway if there had been a dispute as Poland have priority on Sundays.

I don't really think it would have mattered if he said no to Wroclaw... if he's scoring big points in the future, I'm sure they or any other Polish team would be very quick to forgive and forget Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted September 25, 2023 Report Share Posted September 25, 2023 Bit pathetic from Masters to have a go at Hume for fighting for his position, as Danyon said on interview,he did nothing wrong. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masters can be a whingey plank as we've seen over the years, the only one I'd back him over was having a go at Pedersen in the Aussie GP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's why the Premier League ride on Mondays and Thursdays, as these are the days we get priority (or at least it was last time I looked). So I guess he would have had no choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
