Maybe he gets fed up with all the crap written about Poole and doesnt want to respond. Who can blame him.

He did. What actually happened was: tried his 2nd engine at Glasgow which had been good previously, but after first heat it wasn't good, so swapped to 2nd bike with his usual Workington engine. After his 3rd ride that engine blew up immediately after the race snapping its camchain. Back onto first bike for heat 13 with some big changes and managed to get a win whilst feeling slow. For Workington, now only had one bike so borrowed an engine from Jacob Hook ( as his workshop is in Workington) that was "strong" so that he had 2 bikes (the alternative was a 20 hr round trip to home to collect a spare engine, but only had 19 hrs before the next meeting). Tried Hooky's engine in the first 2 heats but struggled to get out of the starts with it ( heavier flywheels than normal may have been the difference? but jumped back onto the underperforming engine again for the last 2 rides and made some radical changes again and managed to win heat 13 again with a massive cutback off the first turn and a defensive ride. Was out after the meeting on that same underperforming engine trying some other radical changes to see if they helped it to perform better. So a frustrating weekend so high points, some low points and no doubt a big bill to come too. Hope that explains what happened

No The home match against Leicester on the 25th is the final meeting.

Steve Worrall scored 16 from 7 rides against Berwick on Saturday so I suspect that's why he is guesting tonight!

What an uninspiring wildcard.

What an uninspiring wildcard.

Same old rubbish every year

Are Birmingham having a farewell meeting?

Reserves are Kowolik and Mikolajczyk

Leicester will thrash this useless Oxford team.

Oh I thought Howarth was having a good season and was higher than that.

Probably more figure of speech, Emil isnt the type to put anyone down and he knows Kurtz is super fast this season. Plus Doyle even said BK (Brady Kurtz not Burger King) is the fasted guy out there ATM after heat 15 BV vs Witches.

I’d bring Jenkins back ASAP and let him be part of the team, IMO it will only feel right to finish the league how we started it and as must as we win together we also lose together as a team.

After missing Wednesday's match through illness, Palovaara wouldn't be able to return tonight, even if he was well enough to.

Apart from Dan Thompson only Sedgmen and Batchelor have a higher average than Worrall. I can't imagine they didn't ask Dan and if he turned them down who else is there? Toft? Vuolas? Given his past record at Leicester I would certainly have considered Seddgy though.

brilliant pic, should send that to Andrew Bain and Speedway Star

Probably seeing a distant gleem of silverware, but it won't be getting any nearer this year 😃

With Jenkins making his comeback back at the weekend, do we reintroduce Jordan one Edward’s 28 day deal expires or has Edward’s done enough to keep his place?

Can you tell us why you only turn up on the forum in July. Know that you are a distanced Poole fan. But never post until July.

Wildcards for Polish rounds are usually from the staging track's team, so Kowalski or Krawczyk would have been viable alternatives.

... or worse 💩

Is Worrall really the best guest, not been in great form.

Janowski it is. Like being teased Lego for Christmas and then ending up with a lump of coal.
