Yes, we also had a huge stroke of luck when we got Alpen on a 4.5 average, swapped Doyle for Magic and picked up Kildemand in the reserve berth. Could it also be the manager knows what he is doing?

What’s the odds on Garritty making Armadale tonight? Not many Van hire Companies in Uk

I wouldnt be surprised that despite riding in the challenge at least one of the sides (perhaps both) require a facility for their No1.....

That's going to be almost impossible for you to find anyone

NO, I think it’s Mike Bellerby and Trevor Geer. Please read my post again. Sorry to disappoint but there were no altercations on the centre green during the evening, - please stop posting incorrect information. Why do you have difficulty in accepting what The Doctor and I have to say, we were both there.

Thomsen back odviously he hasn't shown he is good anough yet, also the Dane is aloud to have a stint at reserve.What real shabby treatment Nathan Stoneman and Danyon Hume have been dealt this season really poor we should be helping our lads not hindering them.

Spot on steve , Alun is better off out of it but his record stacks up pretty well he has overachieved and yes he can move on with his head held high.Will anyone do any better i think not we are where we are my interest is with the youth and Neil Vatcher as we have some nice prospects being produced in the NL with Drew Kemp leading the way.

I fancy Ipswich for a point, bomder on a new engine, gotta be his night for a huge haul sometime, Nuts will take a boost from last night, or maybe a Snickers. The witches gonna smash it up. Anyway, must go, nurse is coming with my meds.

don't think jack has been anywhere near as good as he was at somerset last season

Great to read there was some decent racing last night. Hopefully this is a corner turned by Buster to let the track run it's natural course.

Mmmm.....I wonder if this opinion may have changed?

Unless there has been another posted, I believe the video you are referring to was taken by me and posted here to disprove someone else's claims that Dugard headbutted Vissing. - it was after Kyle Newman clashed with someone much later in the meeting. He pushed him away from two riders squaring up. It wasn't a physical assault don't be so ridiculous. And it was up against the fence, nowhere near the centre green.

It was Barker Tungate and Garrity. Don't know why/ if Barker pulled out. Then it was a Tungate no show, and last few hours Garrity can't get there. Not sure it's Busters fault why those 3 pulled out late.

Under which rule is a facility available for a rider failing to arrive at a meeting?

Thanks for your feedback Dickie and Harry. Felt good from the centre green with the match really coming alive in the closing races. Got to admire those guys. Really fearless and their efforts were rightly well received. Thanks to Garry and Debbie for asking me to stand in for Spencer. Hope to be back on duty for you before the end of the season.

Was it because of the threat of rain? I think the poor racing is a factor too.....I think people could put up with long meetings if the racing was fabulous or quick meetings with few passes if the team are winning, but long meetings with poor racing is a bad combination.

He was born in Outer Mongolia but races on a FBI licence and comes in on a 0.5 average

His van dont go past scotch corner!

Shame the pirates put up such a pathetic fight tonight as the racing was as good as it’s ever been at Blunsdon. If it was a tighter score line or something riding on the last heat, it would have gone down as an all time classic. Heat 15 looked more like a demonstration race than anything else, lost count of the number of passes during the 4 laps. Over the 15 heats there was barely a tapes to flag result as far as I recall. Credit to the track team, they got it pretty much spot on tonight. After the first couple of matches where the track was quite slick but making some good racing, they went too far the other way and put too much dirt on it, making it a bit choppy and unpredictable, but crucially making the dirt line once it built up, the only fast line on the track. Generally you could stick your back wheel in it and not worry too much about being passed. It’s been getting better since, but tonight was perfect. Enough dirt for a decent dirt line to build up, but not so much that it makes the inside of the track redundant. There was a line on the white line (the 1st bend dive bomb should be something our riders should be perfecting), round the fence, mid track cut backs, the lot. Bloody great. People go on about track curating being a real art, but these days, a relatively smooth and predictable surface and the right ratio of dirt allowed to build up out wide relative to the inside, and you can’t be far off. I don’t understand why tracks over here make such a meal of it in general. Credit to Vissing tonight, he deserved to score in each of his rides, even against the middle order Poole riders, not just the reserves. If he can pop out the start more often or be a bit smarter in the first bend, he’ll be doing fine. Like I said about the match on Monday, All the bleating mid meeting about us being useless without decent reserves is ridiculous. Anything can and usually does happen in the playoffs, but we’ve as good a chance of winning them as anyone, really we should be favourites at this point. Just worry we’re peaking too early.

It is with much sadness to learn this morning of the death of Phil Spence (Spensites) following a long and brave battle against cancer. Phil was one of the pioneers of the Midland Development League in its early days providing websites free of charge for Long Eaton, Coventry-Mercia and the Castleford Kings. He was also a sponsor of several junior riders. His enthusiasm and tireless online promotion of the MDL was key to it's early success. Nothing was too much for Phil and all of his MDL club websites were often updated on a daily basis at his own time and expense. Probably not known to many outside the junior ranks, Phil will be greatly missed by those that knew him. A genuinely nice guy and one of the sports unsung behind the scenes hero's. Rest in peace mate. Laurence (Main Man) if your'e reading this maybe it would be a fitting tribute to name this years league trophy after him?

As Team GB is now a private company and Rossiter was forced on the company by the BSPA surely they may want a say on who THEY want fronting THEIR team?

I have around £28k in savings. How much would Buster be willing to sell for?

You would love that to happen wouldn't you, sorry to disappoint you, but after last Thursdays massive gate, no chance, the sport can ill afford to lose clubs like poole
