If that wasn’t the worst meeting recently at Poole I’d hate to have seen the ones that were deemed worse. One pass of note all night (Cook on Sedgmen in heat 7), massive blue grooves meaning that if you moved an inch of the inside line you went backwards and an embarrassing amount of dust for an evening meeting in low 20s temperatures.  A real shame as the track can produce excellent racing and Poole have a team that can win just as well on any surface so quite why track prep is as it is baffles me 

The piece in the Speedway Star with John Campbell suggests the penny, finally, may well have dropped.. Hiowever his comments about the Championship being "stable" are somewhat relying on how tier one teams subsidies tier two riders, and came two days before Workington mentioned that they may not run.. The meeting they held highlighted that no team want to "move up' next season, however, if DUing is no longer an option for the "better riders", that may change I would suggest, given plenty of NDL lads would need to come in... Would fans pay the same, or more, for a lesser product?... Two or three teams still wanting a "top tier" was also something mentioned, therefore, it looks like the "let's plan 2027 early" vision is still nowhere near... No surprise there then eh?..

Either way I can't imagine the Hagon household will be bothered especially not Sam.

How long have many people been saying this for now? Almost every winter we hear "this is one of the most important AGM's we have ever had," yet, year on year, hardly anything changes.  A tweak here or there, when a mass overhaul of the sport in the UK is needed - before it's too late. The clock is ticking.

It’s a poor weather forecast for the Weekend😂

Counted about 8 lights out around the track last night, with bend 1 and 2 looking especially dark, where most of the crashes were last night
