If it is possible for a track to melt that will be Poole on Weds! 26/27 most days til next meeting. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Racin Jason 72 1,283 Posted July 9, 2022 I’ve watched several meetings via emtv over the last two years and lasts nights was probably the least entertaining racing wise but the score line kept the meeting interesting. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

While racing is decent when slick I don't fancy going home covered in shale!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skidder1 7,651 Posted July 9, 2022 Monarchs top 2 scored exactly the same as Pirates top 3 - that where the difference was. Well done Monarchs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The BSN team were wrapped up in anoraks with the hoods up. But Dave & Graham in the after match Friday Focus were in their short sleeve shirts - no jackets/coats. BSN must just be the southern softies. (Is this a racist comment nowadays?!!) 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

martinmauger 584 Posted July 9, 2022 (edited) Cold, cold ?! I laugh in your general direction (cleaned up Monty Python quote) . At Hull's Craven Park it was ALWAYS cold, benefitting as it did from the 'cool freeshing breeze' directly off the River Humber . Tip for Monarchs promotion:- BEFORE you start digging for the new, planned Edinburgh West Lothian Comunity Stadium - hold a wetted finger in the air to check from where the wind blows, fans will thank you in the future. But seriously, best of luck with the new stadium; remember 'wetted finger in the air'...

lbw 869 Posted July 9, 2022 (edited) Steve Worrall says he didn't know that 3pts in heat 15 wud've got us a point! Where's communication between team manager & riders' ? Of course u wud think he would still be trying his best but it does help to know wot the score is & wot is needed! Never understand when any rider from any team is interviewed & they haven't got a Scooby Do as to the score, especially at crucial moments.
