A couple of points re the programme ('match magazine'?)...

The front cover didn’t mention what type of fixture it was. Neither did the centre pages. Was last night actually a Challenge match?

Also, as enjoyable as the puzzles were on page 32, the fact the answers were shown on page 24 meant they probably weren't as challenging as they otherwise might've been ;)

Other than that, top marks. Keep up the hard work!

Looking at the fixtures/results page of the programme, I realised there is no mention of Devils' matches -- reading that programme, a casual spectator would presume there was no speedway at Armadale on May 8th or June 17th.

But some of us always start with the back page and work towards the front.

You have got to remember the average age of the current supporters,they will have forgot the answers before they get to page 32.

Unlucky Sabrina,  Monarchs heat leaders held their own which reduced the pressure on the rest of the team. Nice start  by Paco and Sarge and a heat win for Lasse.

Nice to see Theo doing well for el Bantidos after his prang last week.

Only our 2nd meeting of the season and the strength of your top 2 especially saw you home! Hopefully tonight we will see a more rounded performance from our boys! 

Theo was superb last night and I would’ve had him in 15… can only assume he was maybe feeling the pain after his prang in his grass track meeting! Mrs P showed me the photos and how he rode last night is testament to the man and the size of the gonads he clearly has!

Agree about Theo, he's always been like that. Yeah Saturday was a surpise, especially Proctor, must be his best  match in years.

Monarchs fans is that a cycle speedway track on the inside of the race track at Armadale?

It's the training track for the academy youngsters who are learning their trade aboard the very small bikes :)

No it’s the junior track for our academy. Cracking set up.

He's done something very similar at Lynn tonight through an even smaller gap in a last heat decider, brought the house down. He's some rider.

Could someone who was at this meeting post the result from heat 3 from their programme please? The team websites don't match the official racecard.

Castagna 0

Thomson 2

Pijper 3

Flint 1

There appeared to be a bit of a mix-up as to whether second place was Kye Thomson or Michele Castagna. It was definitely Thomson though.
