    60+ for Poole I'd have thought.

    Hmm, I'm not so sure about that. Josh and Paco should enjoy the extra banking that is at Poole atm. Sedgy normally has good first few rides until H13. Coles and Kye have had a good odd race at Poole but not consistently (although Kye did get 9+1 at Poole last year in the league meeting!) Haven't seen Max James race before, so that will be interesting.

    Nobody apart from the Glasgow management know why they didn't keep him, literally the exact same starting average as flint with flints discount.

    I have a sneaking suspicion that it was to do with the difficulty of rearranging of meetings last season with all the overseas conflicts.

    That could be a good possibility, especially with no Basso this season. I wonder if Basso stayed they would have kept Vissing as two Danes to work around. But then again the averages may not have worked out that way anyway.

    Dubious choice of guest,rr would have been better not committed enough for me,we all know zach is better than that probably on strict orders from Poole promotion imo 

     

    I still don't get why Plymouth keep using second strings at No1? Zach might have been testing things for when we go there. But I would have thought Poole would want Oxford to lose? 

    Edit - plus this is why you don't use guests from your own group!

    I seen the “incident” if that’s what you want to call it between Ace & Boughen down at Workington last year. Nothing in it at all just Ace racing hard. From what I can remember it was a couple of things in the same race/re-run. Ace just taking care of his biggest threat in the race fair and square. Boughen didn’t like it but instead of backing out he carried on and ultimately, layed it down.

    Another one was Ace & Hagon. Ace forceful up the inside, hagon didn’t like it and threw the bike down. No contact at all but somehow Ace was excluded!!

    Ace and Boughen also had an incident in the Glasgow Vs Oxford meeting at end of last season. Boughen wasn't too happy about it when interviewed on BSN but seeing as they already had an incident at Workington, I can see why he would get upset now.

    Who cares who he upsets , without seeing last nights incident you have drawn your conclusion and came up with let’s be honest a pile off Sh!te against a 17 year old.

    McGregor seen fit to exclude Cole’s as the primary cause as Ace had already passed Cole’s perhaps just perhaps Cole’s spat the dummy whilst the red mist descended.

    Very sensitive these days Gaz. Only asking a question, which others seem to answer without being offended.

    It’s a hard sport if you can’t be competitive then what’s the point ffs.

    Who cares who he upsets I’m sure Ace won’t who will be next is a bit of a tasteless comment aimed towards a young kid.

    Not really. Just wondering why he upsets other riders? If it is just racing incidents there wouldn't be an issue, as still learning?

    I loved it, but I’m not going to lie, I’m suspicious. I want to believe it, but the sceptic in me is screaming ”gullible”.

    Harris’ delays were relayed to me, and others, several times by multiple different people associated with the club. I’m not sure if that was strategic.

    The timing of his arrival was Hollywood-like. Nothing short of spectacular, if it played-out naturally.

    Having said that, why would Edinburgh agree to play along with Glasgow’s orchestrated drama? They wouldn’t.

    I’m 75% sure it was real, but 25% suspicious it was a set-up.

    Either way, what a situation. Brilliant.

    Not that brilliant. If you didn't wait for him then you would have got a result. So his entrance was pretty pointless in the end! 

    Ace does seem to upset some of the other riders it seems. Ashton last season and now Coles. Wonder who will be next?

    I'm 99.99% sure that won't be the case, the facility is there if Plymouth need a guest / to use r/r but if Covatti came back or they found a replacement, would've need to wait till the 28 days is up.

    But being Speedway, you just never know!

    You did used to have to wait the 28 days if a rider came back early. But that rule may have changed by now!
