7.08.

Saw a big pile of soil at the end of the carpark.

Went for the speedway which was brilliant last night and the final top notch. I am an adult so not interested in fireworks. There was enough of those on track.

Heard last night that 4 PL clubs are chasing Kyles signature for next season.

Went past the stadium day before yesterday and drove into the car park. Absolutely nothing going on.

Doubt this fixture will take place.

Not sure why some are moaning about Kyle Newman at reserve. He has a pl average so will be a sub 4 pointer. Doubt there will be two riders with a lower average than Kyle so reserve it will be.

Rye House second string/third heat leader next season in the EL.

Great meeting tonight to finish off the season. Loads if brilliant races and a final so close none of us knew who got it on the line. Well done to Eddie Kennett and Scotty Nicholls to provide a great final.

Strong rumours tonight at Poole that Rye House replace Leicester in the 2017 EL.

Riders could have been signed for next season before the Poles tried to force this through. They then would not have been able to do this.

It us ridiculous that the season is over yet the agm us still not until next month. This needs to be brought forward to August or September, so teams can be buult and riders can deal with promotions for yhd following season. Poland have stolen a huge march, will have riders signed up and when if comes to doing a deal riders will not be able to commit as they have signed the Polish contract. The bspa together with Sweden and Poland have to get togethr and work as one against Polands forced demands. Simple as that.

Why on earth are people banging on about Milik being re-assessed? He already has a legit average from last year for gods sake! If he should be re-assessed then so should every rider. People should get off their anti Poole horse. If he was being signed by any other team it wouldn't even be an issue and would be praised as a good signing.

And now theres no more marmite! Tesco refuse to accept a 10% price increase from unilever, a Dutch company, who say the fall of the pound means their products need to go up in price by 10%.

I believe at this time it is impossible to defend brexit.

Why would Milik be re-asseses? He has an official average. If you think Milik needs his average raising, you are therefore admitting Woffinden was a ringer.

We had the fifth largest economy on the planet. Will that be the case after brexit? Highly unlikely. But why on earth would I want it to fail? Failure means hardship, or less revenue for my business and family. Why would I want less money? My income is down already as prices and fuel rises in Price. While I have a good business and am better off than many people, if I can feel the change already what will the lower end of society, the less well off, be feeling? And this is before we leave. Nothing is going to change with the exception of high food and fuel proces, electronic consumables going through the roof and the standard of living dropping through the floor. But hey, we have our country back, right? 😳 Yep. Instead of that property costing £349,950, it now only costs 348,950.

Hans Andersen has pulled out of Fridays meeting. Still not recovered from hand injury. http://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/sport/14796337.Speedway__Broken_leg_would_have_been_better_than_broken_finger_says_Pirates_star_Andersen/

I wonder if the people who voted brexit back in June realised just how badly it was going to hit them in the pocket right now, would have still voted to leave? Fruit and veg prices are already on the rise. Fuel is rising at a rate of a penny a day. Holidays are now 20% more expensive than a few months ago. At the time I said a decent majority of the Brexit voters were the equivelent to fishwives of Hartlepool. Didn't have a clue what they really voted for, and still don't know as 'long as they get their country back'. They don't seem to have grasped the fact that the borders will have to remain open for Britain to get the best possible trade deal with europe, by far our biggest trading partner. And the deal we will get will be a very poor second against the one we have now. So what is Britain to gain? Some trade deals with third world nations? The import if large amounts of Brazilian beef is sure to cheer up our beef farmers, who will lose their EU grants. A trade deal with Australia, so instead of un-subsidised expensive beef we can tuck into a roast Sunday lunch of kangeroo. We can make our own laws. Will they be any different to the ones we are governed by today? We take control of our borders. No we won't. Nothing will change as we are had over a barrel. The millions of Brits living in Europe could be forced back here if we close our borders to EU citizens. We are in for years of very hard times. It will hit the poor more but it will hit everyone. Already its costing me money as it is everyone. But thats ok, as we are spending an extra 350 million a week on the NHS. So The vote leave campain would have you believe! http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-37627308 Happy days!

10 home league fixtures? Fans want 25-30 fixtures a season, not 10.

PL averages would only apply to EDR riders. The others have official EL averages.

So does all this mean there won't be many Continentals riding EL in 2017?

I believe naivety of the majority of brexit voters will come back to bite them very hard on the arse.

Better get back to topic.

Lol! We are used to being at the top of the league, not battling for the wooden spoon.
