Spot on, this meeting was in the calendar a long time ago. And they certainly aren't 'Mickey Mouse' meetings.

There have been 21 weekends between 1st April and 31st August.  There was 11 home meetings to fit in (8 League 2 BSN & 1 KO Cup), giving 10 blank weekends. If clubs can't work around the "Mickey Mouse" (they aren't Mickey Mouse to the riders, I bet), especially those in September - then blame the clubs, don't blame the FIM.  The FIM fixtures are there for all to see, so there should be no clashes.   Workington, as an example, can race on any day of the week (except Monday & Thursday due to Premiership), so fixture clashes with the FIM meetings don't have to happen.  Having said that, promoters in general don't seem to want to learn, as it's the same season after season trying to fit fixtures in at the back-end of the season.  Until that changes, these types of clashes will continue to happen.

PK should have tried to slow down Anders Rowe in the final rather than chase after Sam Masters. Not getting the last place was far more important. for the Bandits.

As I've said above Poole and Oxford are not affected by the many weekends of various European fixtures ( not polish leagues ) where weekend clubs are missing several riders or missing meetings to allow riders to travel to these events 

It's alright for you lot riding midweek these Mickey mouse meetings don't affect Poole and Oxford at home, most other clubs have had blank weekends or guest tests due to the official and Mickey mouse FIM meetings, and more and more are appearing. The majority of fans are fed up with it and are walking away from speedway due to this lack of fixtures especially in the summer. We have had one of the best summer on record, but most teams have gone several weeks without home fixtures
