If you replace Verge and the unannounced final rider with Bowtell and Hampshire, which I suspect was the original plan, the team would have been nearly league winning in my opinion. Unfortunately this hasn't come off but with a final signing that can improve their average I suspect we will be there or there-abouts for the play-offs, subject to Connor Mountain returning from injury OK.

The only other assumption would be that they need £40k to operate, in addition to the assumption that a main team sponsor would be found, hence the reason Readypower being prepared to step aside if another team sponsor could be found, then the Frost money would go towards the 40K. That would be the only logical explanation I can come to. Edited to add, sincerely hope Peterborough do line up in 2015, a great track that should not be allowed to be lost to the sport through mis-management.

Have you looked at the rest of the make up of the Mildenhall team?

I certainly didnt see any exclusion light until the Ambulance that had looked after Roynon had left the track. And when it came it was the white light only, no other decision was announced or indicated by use of exclusion lights

White is Roynon and Blue Nielsen so assuming you mean Roynon at fault? Best wishes to Adam Roynon for a speedy recovery, didn't realise it was the loose bike that brought him down, so unlucky.

It will be interesting if/when the video of the exclusion is released. Only speculating, but if the video suggests Roynon was at fault then who should be blamed, the referee or Chris Louis? Edit - I should add that I haven't heard the radio evidence as I am at work and unable to listen, perhaps that will be more enlightening?

If Bates' points are removed, I have a feeling the promotion won't be too happy. Could be interesting when it comes to sorting play off dates assuming both teams make it. Would be a shame if Bates excellent performance is penalised due to paperwork but as 21stCH says rules are rules. I wonder what the response would have been if Bates scored 1 or 2?

I haven't checked the averages but how about Jon Armstrong??

I'd give her one.

Thanks very much

Any able to give a weather update please?

I wonder if Jan's machinery was a problem because he has been having a few niggling problems over here.

Some of us are only travelling from Southampton mate. See you next Sunday.

Table booked in the restaurant for my birthday, awesome.

Yes that is all well and good but it is the gamble of the Poole promotion to put up the £60,000 prize money so they should reap the reward if the BSPA were to put up such a prize and then after recooperating all outlay donated the profit to the SRBF I am sure it would sell out and be a good meeting but if this meeting does not make money it will be covered by M and M own money.

Not in riding order: Mildenhall - Tomas Suchanek, Jason King, Shaun Tacey and Ritchie Hawkins Peterborough - Danny King, Kenneth Bjerre, Niels Kristian Iversen and Ulrich Ostergaard Boston - Kevin Doolan, Lewis Bridger, James Brundle and Carl Wilkinson East Anglian Select - Leigh Lanham, James Holder, Nicki Glanz and Chris Schramm

All the replacements have been top class. Really looking forward to this which will probably be my last meeting of the season.

Seems Danny performs much better when Micheal Lee is there, for example British Final and Play Off semi, unfortunately he was at Mildenhall today not at the final.

King was the only British qualifier in the world under 21 final last season. QED.

Gotta be King for me. I know I am biased but King would have qualified had it not been for an engine failure.

It is a possibilty at Mildenhall. Think they are waiting for confirmation.

Great reply there genius. Could not think of anything sensible to reply to my valid points, so go for a poor attempt at humour. Outstanding

What a plank you are. Ben is 16 in March (get your facts right), and with him having limited Conference rides this season and the apparent lack of riders interested in the Under 15's this season, I cannot see the harm in him riding. It is within the rules and happened last season. The British speedway season began before Ben's 15th Birthday so what is the problem? The meeting also did a lot for Ben's Confidence with him putting in an improved home performance against Scunny then an excellent away meeting at Scunthorpe so what is your problem with him riding?

Yep, still goes ahead as planned

With no disrespect to those riders involved, Team GB could be a lot stronger if you added in Bridger, Kennett and Boxall.
