Birmingham should have forfeited the meeting to save what is going to be extremely expensive night for Poole through no fault of theirs.

Or postponed it? What's the rush anyway? We all know the final of the Summer Trophy won't be until the autumn and since when did Poole ride on a Friday? They've been going on for the last few seasons how it had to be Wednesday's... and there'll be no clash with Birmingham being the other Wednesday track as their last match is August the 10th

you would think the poole   promotors would make a statement on this farce .just proves there are no riders about these days :t:

Maybe Poole will tell their fans that It'll be "A night like no other"? It's what the Brummies are doing on their Social Media posts.  One thing's for certain, one way or another, it will absolutely live up to that billing.

Birmingham have the under 21 final on the 31st,Poole have meetings weds all through august and then there is at 1 cup match  at least and play off meetings.it’s a Friday because Birmingham have first dabs on Wednesdays.

An utter shambles, this should have been postponed, it just shows the sport up for ridicule.

The Birmingham team are not riding on the 31st and neither are the Poole team... or there's the Bank Holiday

Fair enough about Middlo's testimonial, but really this match should not be going ahead tonight (as an "official" fixture), it makes a complete mockery of the sport and i think, correct me if I'm wrong, sets a new precedent on how many riders is acceptable to make a team
