Bad replacement

Can't see it being more that 6

Belle Vue should win this comfortably if Blodorn Tate and Cook do what they did last time Kurtz will be fine if he gates but he won’t try if behind understandably Shame this season Ipswich are so understrength as we absolutely destroyed a stronger Belle Vue last season Belle Vue comfortably and should win on the night

It was Bomber or Dan, nothing do with Howarth. Glasgow got that one right. They have made other poor choices but hopefully they will be rectified for next year

Exactly and that’s more than enough to create a decent atmosphere

Jordy Loftus guests for Slater on Tuesday. Pirates hopeful that Slater is fit enough for Wednesday.

Jordy Loftus in for Slater Lightcap

My first time BSN streaming.

My first time BSN streaming.

And the winner is POOLE PIRATES. Surprised!

One man will only fail. It’s numbers that count

If I was Wroclaw, I am gambling with the track big time next Sunday. Make it super slick and turn it into a gate fest. You need to surprise Torun.

Belle Vue to take the title full stop. Not going to subscribe to BSN and waste my money.

Wish him a good recovery,could have been a lot worse it looked horrendous.

I was a regular from 1984 - 1993 was 22-23 when I stopped going as discovered night clubs as a Saturday night alternative but had some great times in my late teens travelling around the country with my oldest friend and his dad. Memories of Bill Barker selling raffle tickets, Bills winter talk in's were comedy gold also, Loram and Henka were brilliant in those days when they were starting out fond memories of the loons who resided in the second bend bar also, Wild Wayne belting out "Stars" at 50 thou decibels you could hear him in Suffolk. I was a die hard for those years but it amazes me how many other die hards I know who used to go every week no longer go granted a lot are in mid 70's to early 80's now. Do you remember Einar he would either nearly kill himself or someone else most meetings he was all over the place on the bike, got a feeling Travis McGowan who was going to be another big Aussie hope might have signed for Lynn in the season I stopped going bar the odd meeting but over 35 years ago now so memory very hazy. I seem to remember Einar needing a maximum in his last meeting to come back to the UK in the next year in the nicest possible way I was hoping he wouldn't get it , as he was terrible can't remember if those were Martin Rogers days or Busters must be Rogers. We used to go over to Peterborough a fair bit as well and can remember a brilliant last heat decided between Ryan Sullivan and Michael Max probably best race I have ever seen, went to Odsal for two world finals again was probably 16 in 86 and again frightening that it was forty years ago.

If there less than 2500 I'd be surprised

Ha ha those were the days spanked every week, Simmo and Barker came in and we had a powerhouse team must have been 4-5k for first home meeting and as ever with Lynn it all fell apart about half way through the season Bo Peterson went from unbeatable around Saddlebow Road to truly terrible , John Davis would leave gaps on the inside you could sail the titanic through and Lance King started like the heir to Penhall but then had loads of niggling injuries that set him back.

He looked more concerned about his hand.

I'd be surprised if the Witches manage to win on the night let alone by enough to still be in with a shout Even if some catastrophic events took place for the Aces and the Witches were to win by 20 the Aces would still be favourites overall

I think King is a match for Kildemand and the reserves i would say Edwards and Tate could have a good or bad meeting Tate has been in good form though, Cairns has dropped off a little maybe the season catching up with him a bit riding in Europe? Pedersen could win that one and Norick was off it at BV against Sheffield but did pull out one good ride towards the end. As you say anything can happen on the night. I think Ipswich will get the win but would like to think we wont be further than 10 points behind. Play offs are a different ball game though as we have found out all to well when finishing top before.

Belle Vue may have finished 14 points ahead of the Witches in the league table, but that counts for nothing in the play-offs. No one has won the title from top of the table since Peterborough in 2021. Kurtz and Blodorn have the Polish playoffs on their mind. Kurtz and Doyle have the final GP on their minds. No Ipswich riders have any other distractions. Ipswich have been to second-placed Leicester and turned them over at home to make the playoffs, so they can up their game when needed. I wouldn't be writing them off. A 12-14 point win tonight and it could be game on for the second leg.

Rearranged now on the same day as the Buxton meeting the 27th. It annoys me with all the dates that have through the year they have to put both meeting on the same date. I was going to both will have to choose between then, probably the league meeting, so I loose out on one meeting and so does the clubs, as they loose a paying customer.

I thought the medics were concerned about his neck, not concussion. But we'll know pretty soon.....

The only place I've come across any reference to Lightcap being concussed was on the Edinburgh Vs Poole thread, so not definitive.

I'm going for a draw tonight, and a 30 point home win in the return leg
