FishersGate Posted September 12 Report Share Posted September 12 Feel for Ipswich they really did deserve to go through but I'm obviously delighted as a Lions fan that we've made it through. Mixed feelings 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I didn’t care who went through. But I did want an even playing field, and because of the ref, I was cheering on the Witches by the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny is a seasoned pro who's been around the block more than enough times to a point where he's done enough laps on British tracks in all type's of conditions. Kvech and Rew are still young and very raw to these type of track conditions. Edited September 12 by TTT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted September 12 Report Share Posted September 12 Just now, Steve Shovlar said: Tom Brennan saying all the right things, even though he is just a guest. Likely dropping Championship next season with Premier, Sweden and Poland for racing. Time for him to move onwards... The move to being the "main man" has obviously been one he has handled this season, (some don't and never progress..) Moving from the Aces has been the making of him as he hasn't had Kurtz and Bewley to lower the pressure... Now he needs to go onto that next step, which is the "big one" in a riders career... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavan Posted September 12 Report Share Posted September 12 3 minutes ago, TTT said: A hollow victory for sure with terrible biased refereeing but it's not all down to Turnbull. When was the last time you saw a British club having to protect their 3rd Heat Leader and Club Captain in a Play-Off meeting by putting him at No.2 for the evening only for him to not score a point against an opposition rider? King had an awful night it happens as Kvech and Rew also did but they seem blameless King Ellis and Rew were all signed again to be the back up to the big two with them expected to change places over the season .. there isn’t an out and out third heat leader for us…. Similar to Leicester they have a number one and then 4 similar riders that can all be heat leaders 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShanoXtra Posted September 12 Author Report Share Posted September 12 You can’t have rew, kvech and king come off as much as they did and think you’re going to win. We didn’t do well enough, granted the ref should have excluded Fricke and other bad decisions, but we had enough to beat Leicester, they certainly didn’t look anything special. Brennan talking like he already signed a contract for us next season is a plus! He done well, no grudges against him finishing last, he basically kept us in it until heat 15. Thompson has come on again this season, so has Jenkins. We have completed an entire season without Doyle, a cup final and play offs without Emil. When Emil was injured I gave up on the season. It sucks how it has finished with this disappointing meeting, but part of me breathes a sigh of relief this season is over! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagutaRacingFan Posted September 12 Report Share Posted September 12 Why don't one of the Polish clubs use Tom Brennan? Wroclaw and Torun both have some useless riders riding for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
