Do you reckon the sponsor has paid riders like Doyle,Thompson,King and Edwards not to exert themselves in the matches they have had since Thursday?Riders go racing and the adrenaline pumps they want to win.

A close result on aggregate but the result I expected. The Monarchs quite simply didn't have the heat leader power to see them home. Victor Palovaara is a shadow of the early season rider we witnessed while you could have bet money on Sedgy being last in heat 15. MPT never looked up for the challenge at any point which must have been a huge disappointment to the Monarchs faithfull. It would have been harsh and hugely disappointing for the Tigers if they had failed to reach the final after finishing top of the league so well done to them.

Well done the Bandits, lack of recent racing for some of the Comets was obvious early on while the 44 points from an impressive Berwick top 4 sealed the day. Some very entertaining races but Comets must have given up on squaring up the meeting in heat 15 to take it to a superheat.

Something that needs to be addressed is the extras that riders are now expecting, mechanics, vans, workshops, hotels, airport transfers, flights, tyres, insurances,,houses and bills and any other add ons that riders are expecting today and are getting to varying degrees, it’s not that riders don’t deserve it but we just can’t afford it, it’s out of control really and it has to be curtailed, riders these days seem to be blind to the struggles that British speedway goes through, I understand they try to get what they can but speedway has to stand firm and say no, I do often wonder what other motorcycle sports think about us and the pandering that our riders get

My mistake thought it was 6.30 uk start

Even better, maybe the team that won most & lost least meetings should be league champions. In case you wondering, that would be Leicester

Well done to Berwick better team won on the day, Kemp , Jeppsen, and Kildemand were very good for the Bandits . Comets riders seemed to struggle out of the starts, good to see Jye get up from an awkward tumble.

Yes it was a bit gate and go early on and if thats the case it will benefit us if we make it. Our riders will know to stick to the outside, the inside only seemed to work later on with Howarth using it to good effect.

Delayed by 1hr?

They will want everyone to be equal... But some will still what to be more equal than others..

Rider control would be a good move, but that of course depends on who exactly has their finger on the button to decide who goes where. So many ideas in British Speedway over the years Ive been watching have been good in theory, but quickly tumbled into a shambles because self interest gets in the way.

Bowes another with a chip on his shoulder who thinks he’s better than he is.

Well we topped the league table, got the highest team average in the league and got to the playoffs final, so we've done better than seven out of nine teams. Who is the stronger reserve you would've taken if you were Glasgow? I wanted us to get Jody Scott, but no idea if we did (or if he would have wanted to). Same for next year. Jody is taken, surely Redcar will want to keep him. Cooper Rushen seems unlikely to come to Glasgow. Edinburgh will want to keep Jordy Loftus. Of more experienced reserves, Ace seems happy at Redcar. There aren't a lot of obvious options, and some of the teams with strong reserves didn't even make the playoffs so it's not a guarantee of success. That's the great thing about the points limit. Everyone has to compromise somewhere.

Foord gave PK a run for his money in Ht 14.Batch would have been under his umbrella putting the bikes in the van.

He was drunk

Had the rerun resulted in a 5-1 to the Tigers I think I’d have walked out 😄

Yeah. It's been a bit of a frustration for some fans second half of this season. The track isn't bad by any means, but it's not been what we're used to either. Not sure the ins and outs of why it's changed tbh.

Well, gutted is understatement, only ourselves to blame, should’ve been out of site in the first leg. Said after the first leg we’d need to be at least 10 up going into heat 13 last night proved it. Had to take advantage of Nagel having a bit of nightmare last night but we didn’t with Grahn twice failing to beat Max Perry and MPT also failing to beat him is embarrassing. Hopefully never see him in the blue and gold again utterly awful. Thought Kye was phenomenal for us last night real shame about heat 13 with the spark plug coming loose when in a scoring position, but it’s speedway. All the best to the tigers in the final but of course hope you get pumped. 😆

Well done to Berwick, made Workington look like the away team for much of the time. And what an anti climax to the meeting for the supporters, if I'd known Workington were putting a reserve out to get battered against Kemp and Kildemand I wouldn't have hung around in the pouring rain.

Unless they were guesting for Glasgow.

Move your arm and hit the red button with your hand.

I still can’t believe the referee accidentally pressed the red light button mid-race last night.😂 How is that even possible?

I was commenting on the early shots from Workington, not the re runs from other meetings they have been showing.

Mine is awful and I do have 850 meg fibre in my city, worst I've ever watched.

Personally I have not been impressed with them. Personally I have not been impressed with them.
